My daughter was sold, I want to divorce her and go back to my parents' home to escape the famin

Wen Shui hurried forward, carefully packed up the packages one by one, and put them neatly aside.

After finishing all this, he came to Gu Jinxuan, bowed respectfully, and said sincerely: "Thank you for your care, Master Gu. I will leave today."

Gu Jinxuan smiled and nodded, with a hint of reluctance in his eyes. He watched Wen Shui turn around and leave quietly, and his back gradually disappeared from his sight.

As the figure of Wen Shui became smaller and smaller until it finally turned into a blurry black dot, Gu Jinxuan's mood became heavy.

He hadn't seen Lin Qingxue for such a long time. Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, that beautiful face would involuntarily appear in his mind.

His longing for her was like a tidal wave, crashing against his heart, making it difficult for him to fall asleep. And at this moment, this longing burned even more fiercely like a raging fire.

However, although they cannot meet their loved ones, they can still express their deep concern and attachment to each other through these small objects.

Each item seems to carry thousands of words, telling of the endless lovesickness in the hearts of the two.

Gu Jinxuan firmly believed that no matter how far apart they were or how many hardships they had to go through, one day, he and Lin Qingxue would be able to meet again, hold hands and spend the rest of their lives together.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and tried to calm the surging emotions in his heart.

Then, he turned around resolutely, took firm and powerful steps, and plunged into the final stage of the bandit suppression operation.

Because he knew very well that if he could not eliminate this group of vicious bandits as soon as possible and let the people live a stable and peaceful life, how could he return to Lin Qingxue with peace of mind?

Therefore, even if there are many difficulties and dangers ahead, he will move forward bravely without flinching, just to realize that beautiful wish as soon as possible - to reunite with his beloved and enjoy this hard-earned peace and prosperity together.

Of course, all this happened after Wen Shui left the Lin Mansion.

When his figure disappeared at the door, Lin Qingxue seemed to lose all her strength in an instant, like a delicate flower suddenly ravaged by a storm, and became listless.

She slowly lay down on the comfortable chaise longue in the study, staring blankly at the ceiling. Although the account book in her hand was spread out in front of her, she could not see a single word of the densely packed numbers on it.

Seeing her master in such a state of dismay, Wen Nuan, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel distressed. She said softly, "Master, don't worry too much. Master Gu is a martial arts master. He can't fight a hundred people alone, but ordinary masters definitely can't get close to him. What's more, he has no less than ten guards who are as skilled as Wen Shui and me, protecting him closely at all times!"

However, despite Wen Nuan's earnest advice, Lin Qingxue was still immersed in her own thoughts and could not come back to her senses for a long time.

After a long while, as if finally realizing Wen Nuan's presence, Lin Qingxue turned her eyes slightly and looked towards Wen Nuan.

Then, in a whisper, he asked softly, "Wen Nuan, if I wanted to train a team of powerful secret guards and assassins like you, how long would it take to see any results?"

After saying this, Lin Qingxue turned her gaze to the window again. At this time, a breeze blew outside, and the branches were swaying left and right, making a creaking sound.

Lin Qingxue's voice was as gentle as the spring breeze blowing through the willows, as if she was afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the world. If Wen Nuan had not practiced martial arts since childhood and had not relied on her deep inner strength, her words would probably be as hard to grasp as a candle in the wind.

However, Wen Nuan was worthy of being selected through layers of selection, standing out from thousands of people, and finally becoming a capable secret guard beside Gu Jinxuan.

This honor is not accidental. She is not only a martial arts expert, but also possesses extraordinary insight and quick wit.

Because of this, as soon as Lin Qingxue finished speaking, Wen Nuan could instantly see through what she was thinking. Facing the idea that suddenly emerged in Lin Qingxue's mind, Wen Nuan knew very well that if they wanted to put it into practice, what awaited them ahead would be a difficult road full of thorns and bumps.

Because the resources required to train secret guards are extremely huge, whether it is finding a suitable training ground, screening out talents with potential, or providing continuous financial support and investing a lot of time and energy, each one is a daunting challenge.

What's more, what's more troublesome is that everyone has different personalities, and the slightest carelessness may cause the entire plan to fail.

Although she knew that the road ahead was difficult, Wen Nuan was not afraid. After thinking for a moment, she took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner turmoil and calm herself down.

Then, she stared directly at Lin Qingxue with a sharp gaze, and spoke solemnly and seriously, "Master, training secret guards is no easy task. It involves a wide range of factors. First of all, it requires a huge investment. Not only does it require a suitable training ground, but it also requires the careful selection of qualified candidates. Furthermore, the financial cost is not to be underestimated. Add to that the long-term and continuous investment of effort and energy... Especially since everyone's character varies greatly, the slightest negligence can sow hidden dangers. So, Master, have you truly made up your mind?"

Lin Qingxue sat there quietly, not saying a word, just immersed in her own thoughts. Her mind kept flashing through every bit of her experience after meeting Gu Jinxuan like a movie. Since they decided to settle down in the imperial city, all kinds of unexpected things have followed.

This naturally includes the fact that Gu Jinxuan failed to go to Nancheng as promised to eliminate the bandits.

Too many times, faced with these complicated situations, she felt powerless and helpless. This feeling had deeply tortured her, and she really didn't want to continue like this.

Finally, Lin Qingxue took a deep breath and broke the long silence. "Okay, let's do this! After Wenshui returns, we'll start the operation immediately. Wenwan, please go and find Wenrou and Wenquan. Then, arrange for Wenquan to find a suitable place. Once a suitable place is found, Wenquan and Wenshui will set off together to various places to take in those poor beggars and bring them back to the camp to carefully train them. Don't worry, I will work out a detailed plan for everyone as soon as possible."

Speaking of the training for secret guards, Lin Qingxue already had a plan in mind. She did not want to completely copy the training model usually adopted by Wen Nuan and others, but planned to incorporate the knowledge she had learned in the police academy into it to create a new and more complete training program.

After all, she knew very well that only by teaching students in accordance with their aptitude and introducing new ideas could she truly cultivate an elite teacher.

The most crucial point was that Lin Qingxue had already made plans for the orphans she had adopted. She had never considered keeping only those with martial arts talent, but was determined to take them all in.

For those children who have the potential to learn martial arts, they can be taught martial arts; for those who lack talent in martial arts, they can be guided to learn business or master the art of accounting.

After all, she is extremely short of manpower at the moment. In Lin Qingxue's view, everyone has his or her own strengths.

Admittedly, it will take a lot of time to cultivate these children into talents, but fortunately she is still young and can afford to wait this long time.

Moreover, when his two daughters grow up, this group of carefully cultivated talents will definitely come in handy.

"Okay, Master. In that case, I will go to the academy, find Wenquan and Wenrou, and then tell Wenquan to find a suitable venue."

Seeing that Lin Qingxue had already made arrangements, Wen Nuan stopped talking. As a servant, she knew that she only needed to follow her master's orders.

Lin Qingxue nodded slightly and said no more. Instead, she focused all her attention on the thick stack of account books in front of her.

Time passed quietly, and before she knew it, when she finally finished turning the last page, the sun outside the window was already high above her head, bright and scorching. It turned out that it was noon.

At this moment, there was a sound of light footsteps outside the door, and then the door was gently pushed open, and Wen Nuan and Wen Rou walked in side by side.

There were faint smiles on their faces, and it was obvious that this trip made them in a good mood. Wenquan, who had already received instructions from Lin Qingxue, left in a hurry after completing the task. At this moment, he should be looking for a suitable venue outside.

"Master, Wenquan has already gone out to look for a site as you instructed. However, in my opinion, it may be difficult to find a site that meets the requirements near the imperial city. How about we simply purchase a barren mountain and build an ideal site according to our vision?"

Wen Nuan stood respectfully in front of Lin Qingxue and spoke softly. Since they had lived in the imperial city for many years, they knew every tree and blade of grass here like the back of their hand. Therefore, they were naturally more familiar with the situation around the imperial city than Lin Qingxue, who had just arrived.

Lin Qingxue frowned slightly after hearing Wen Nuan's advice. After a moment of thoughtful silence, she finally spoke, "So, then go to the government office right away and ask if you can buy an unclaimed piece of barren mountain near Linjia Village. Remember, if there's a suitable option, prioritize those with rugged terrain that's easily defended and difficult to attack. It's best if they're large, as this will facilitate detailed planning and large-scale construction in the future."

After saying this, a hint of eager anticipation flashed in her eyes, as if she had already seen the prototype of the perfect venue in her mind.

"Yes, master, I'll do it right away," Wen Nuan replied respectfully, then hurriedly left the study and rushed towards the government office like a gust of wind.

After Wen Nuan left, Lin Qingxue slowly leaned back on the exquisite chaise longue, her beautiful eyes slightly closed, but her thoughts surged like a tide.

She was quietly immersed in her own thoughts, constantly perfecting the grand plan of training secret guards in her mind.

From the meticulous arrangement of training courses to the meticulous management of personnel, from the comprehensive preparation of necessary materials to the long-term development direction in the future, every link and every detail has been repeatedly pondered and deliberated in her intelligent mind.

Lin Qingxue knew very well that in order to build an extremely elite team of secret guards, the choice of coach was crucial, and Wen Nuan and the other four were undoubtedly the most suitable candidates. After all, their respective areas of expertise were almost the same.

However, Lin Qingxue did not want all the secret guards to learn the same skills without any characteristics.

Therefore, in addition to warming up the four people, she also had to find other people with special skills to serve as coaches.

For example, there is a teacher who teaches how to read and write, an accountant who is proficient in arithmetic and financial management, a businessman who is well versed in business and adept at networking, and a genius doctor who is proficient in the art of treating poisons and can save people from life and death, and so on.

However, it is not easy to find so many talented people. Everything takes time, and we can only proceed step by step.

As for the specific training content, it is relatively easy for Lin Qingxue. The essential daily activities include long-distance running with weights to exercise endurance and physical strength, crawling in muddy ponds to hone willpower and the ability to adapt to harsh environments, climbing towering trees to improve body coordination and agility, fierce fights between two people to hone practical skills, practicing light and elegant qinggong movements and practicing internal family mental formulas, etc.

Therefore, Lin Qingxue carefully planned and wrote a detailed plan, which stipulated a full and challenging schedule for each day.

Every morning, when the first ray of sunlight has not yet completely penetrated the clouds, the children have to get up early and start running for exercise with heavy objects on their backs.

This not only helps to enhance their physical fitness, but is also an important way to cultivate perseverance and endurance. After completing the morning run, it is time to enjoy breakfast and replenish enough energy for the next day's study and training.

The morning classes then began, starting with tree climbing, a seemingly simple yet challenging activity that could hone children's physical coordination and courage.

Then they practice fighting in pairs, improving their reaction speed, power control, and offensive and defensive skills through actual confrontation.

After a busy morning, it was time for lunch break. The two-hour break allowed the children to relax and restore their energy.

The afternoon schedule is relatively easier, but equally crucial. First, we learn various mental techniques, which cover aspects such as internal strength training and mental state adjustment, and have a profound impact on future growth and development.

When night falls, the day's learning does not end. Every night, mud-rolling activities are arranged in turn. Although they are covered in mud, this special experience can hone the children's hard-working qualities.

In addition, there is reading time, where children can broaden their knowledge by reading various books; accounting time, where they can learn basic financial knowledge and calculation skills; and finally, there is an explanation of business principles, where children can understand the principles and strategies of business operations.
