Chapter 205 Where did the kidnapper come from?
Since Qin Huaishu is not here, we can only wait until he comes back in the evening.
Tomorrow is a good time to have those men sent away, so it won't interfere with her work.
After thinking it over, Chu Yian took Xiaofu and left the Duke's Mansion, intending to visit the two cloth shops under her name.
The women of Dashi Village will eventually have to be arranged, and I don’t know if the two cloth shops can accommodate so many people.
If it can't fit in, I'm afraid we'll have to expand the scale a little bit.
However, these two cloth shops were not very profitable to begin with, and after deducting the costs, there was not much left of their annual earnings.
If we accept so many people at once, we will definitely start to make losses.
I hope the women of Dashi Village can stand up as soon as possible and not let her suffer too much.
Although he had no confidence in other things, Chu Yian was still very confident in the embroidery skills of the girls in Dashi Village.
Even Tao, who is used to seeing good things, praised it, so this thing must be not bad.
If we arrange for more people to learn from them and develop this skill a little bit, the only problem left will be sales.
If they couldn't even sell their craft, Chu Yian believed that it was not the girls' fault, but that there was something wrong with the sales department.
But she really doesn't want to spend too much effort on this. Not only does it take a lot of brainpower, but she may not make any money after all the trouble.
And she really has no business acumen, which is really embarrassing.
Sitting in the carriage leaving the house, Chu Yian became more and more irritated the more he thought about it. The pressure was so great that he even had an inexplicable impulse.
Otherwise, let them do whatever they want with the cloth shop?
See what they can do.
If you can make money, make it. If you can't make money, we'll deal with it later...
But she suppressed this thought in an instant.
Chu Yian closed her eyes in pain. She really wanted to give up and didn’t want to care about business anymore.
However, the women in Dashi Village have no channels and no acquaintances, so it is definitely unrealistic to ask them to sell themselves.
We still need to find a few trustworthy people to help and teach them.
Chu Yian closed her eyes, recalling the scene when Huang Sanya pulled her to sell handkerchiefs when they first met.
The road ahead is long and arduous.
When they stand up again, she can let go completely.
Chu Yian slapped his face, forced himself to sit up straight, and began to think about who else besides Uncle Fu was good at business and had business acumen.
Those people in Duke Qin’s Mansion should not be idle anymore, they should all get busy.
Chu Yian instantly thought of Zhang Bo, but Zhang Bo was the steward of the Duke of Qin's Mansion. He already had a lot of things to do, so it was not appropriate to ask him to handle these things.
However, with his connections, it is not difficult to introduce a few smart people over.
Thinking of Zhang Bo, Chu Yian felt a little better. This old man from the Duke of Qin's Mansion didn't talk much on weekdays, but his eyes looked very wise.
Well, at least in Chu Yian's opinion, it is very wise.
Just as he was thinking about it, the carriage suddenly stopped for some reason. Chu Yian was caught off guard and leaned forward, almost falling out of the carriage.
If Xiao Fu hadn't been quick enough to grab her, she really thought she would have fallen badly.
Xiao Fu frowned tightly, lifted a corner of the car curtain, stuck her head out and asked, "What's wrong? Why did you stop so suddenly?"
The driver was a little panicked and hurriedly explained: "Miss Xiaofu, there is someone in front."
Xiao Fu's vision was blocked by the horse and she couldn't see what was happening ahead. After saying something to Chu Yian, she hurriedly got off the carriage.
When she saw the young girl in front of the carriage who was almost hit, she was startled. She hurried forward to help her up and asked with concern: "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"
The little girl was stunned, obviously frightened by the sudden change, and didn't even hear what Xiaofu asked.
Xiao Fu patted her shoulder gently, but she still didn't respond.
His pupils were locked and his body was tense.
She could only reach out and pinch the girl's philtrum hard.
This move required a lot of strength, and the girl screamed in pain before finally coming to her senses.
When he came to his senses, he remembered what had just happened. He was shaking with fear and tears started to flow.
Xiao Fu was a little bewildered. She patted her shoulder and looked at the driver and asked, "What's going on?"
The carriage was not going very fast. After all, this was a downtown area with many people. The coachman was always careful in driving, so this kind of situation should not have happened.
The driver felt aggrieved and whispered, "She just popped out of nowhere..."
If he hadn't pulled the reins in time to control the horse, he would have really stepped on it.
The girl looks so thin and malnourished. If she gets kicked like that, she'll probably be crippled if not dead.
Chu Yian also stuck his head out of the carriage and looked at the little girl who was almost hit.
The little girl was wearing tattered old clothes, and her messy hair was simply tied together with a piece of rag on her head.
He is short, with a pale and thin face.
Those bright big eyes were now blurred by tears, and his face was full of confusion and fear.
After being comforted by Xiao Fu for a while, her fear subsided a little, but then she opened her eyes wide in horror as if she remembered something.
Without thinking, he pushed Xiaofu away and ran away so fast that Xiaofu didn't even have time to react.
But he had only run a few steps when he suddenly stopped and turned to run in another direction.
Just as they started running, an extremely harsh sound came from behind the crowd.
"Why are you running? Stop right there, you bitch! Don't let me catch you!"
"Stop her, please help stop her, she is my daughter! Please help stop her, she is so young and actually wants to elope with a wild man, it's so bold, stop her."
Chu Yian frowned instantly and looked at a middle-aged couple who were chasing after him from the back of the crowd.
The two men kept their eyes on the fleeing girl. They were so anxious that they stretched out their hands to push the people in front of them, desperately wanting to catch the girl.
Chu Yian looked at the little girl who was almost stopped. The little girl was so anxious that she was running around and crying.
But she didn't dare to stay, and could only rely on her short stature to run left and right in the crowd.
But the next second, something she didn't expect happened.
Instead of holding the little girl down, the crowd of onlookers pressed down the anxious couple to prevent them from approaching the little girl.
Chu Yian looked at this sudden change and was a little confused, not knowing what was going on.
The couple who were pinned down were also confused and yelled at the people holding them down: "Why are you holding us down? You're holding that bitch! Everyone's running away! Let us go!"
Seeing that thin figure disappeared in a few moments, the couple was so angry that they beat their chests and stamped their feet, cursing all the people.
They were very angry, but who knew that the onlookers were even angrier and were pulling them to the police.
"Where did you come from, kidnapper? How dare you kidnap a woman in broad daylight? How can you be so presumptuous under the feet of the emperor?"
"That's right, send him to the authorities. Let the master conduct a thorough investigation to find out where this kidnapper came from."
