Chapter Ninety-Four: Leather Boots
When Yuehua got up in the morning, she was already on the clock, she had a splitting headache, the wine jar and vegetable dishes on the ground had been cleaned, and the clothes on her body had been changed.
"Madame, you are up! Craving something? The Li family came in and asked.
"It's noon in the weather, so let's eat some indiscriminately! You see, it doesn't take much trouble to make a little cushion for the stomach. ”
There must have been movement in the middle of the night last night, and today's eyes are swollen, Yuehua is a little embarrassed, the Li family is very knowledgeable and never mentions yesterday's incident, and only follows Yuehua's words and says: "I'll go get a bowl of soup and two small sugar buns for Madame, and you will just put some on it." ”
"Hmmm! There you go! The Li family agreed, and after a while, they brought a bowl of decanting soup and two steamed buns, Yuehua drank the bowl of decanting soup with a red face, the buns were very small and could be stuffed with a bite, not much sugar, not greasy, and faintly sweet in the mouth.
He Heng didn't learn to ride a horse as soon as he left Yuehua, he didn't have anything to do at home, and he started to do needlework again, there are few sunny days in the south in winter, sometimes the drizzle is one or twenty days, the people who work can't wear cloth shoes, and they are soaked before they get on their feet. He Heng and they are the same, if this war is in the mountains, the deep mountains and jungles are dense, and there is a lot of dew, the cloth shoes will definitely not be worn, and they can only wear straw sandals, and they will suffer if they think about it......
Yuehua suddenly remembered that he knew a eunuch who was a Baotou man, and his ancestors had the blood of the Huns, and the shoes made of cowhide were particularly strong, so Yuehua decided to go to the tanner's shop to order a pair of leather boots for He Heng, and said that he would go!
The cobbler's shop generally only makes saddles, and I haven't really seen anyone who makes leather boots, Yuehua thought about what the eunuch said before: "Actually, it's similar to making a saddle, the cowhide should be hammered with a stone to make it softer, and then softer, and the sole of the shoe should be sewn with three or four layers of cowhide, anyway, it's almost a little nail thick, and the sole is all nailed, so it's hard work." ”
"I haven't done that yet! You can try, but the salary is more. ”
"It's okay, you make a price, and the price is about the same as negotiable."
"How much is the leather, how much is the cost of the shoes, do you think it is appropriate? But I'll talk about the front, in addition, the wages of nitrate skin, grinding and polishing and hammering have to be calculated separately, and the specific market price. ”
Yuehua thought about it, the price was slightly higher, and she could still accept it, and she didn't continue to argue with him: "That's it!" But it's better to be fast, if you can't make these shoes, I only pay the money for the leather and half of the manual money for the leather, and don't pay for the manual cost of the shoes, you don't suffer, I don't suffer a loss, and we will share the loss. ”
"The little lady is shrewd and refreshing, so let's do it, I'll get the goods in three days!" The craftsman of the cobbler's shop thought about it, and it made sense.
I'm very happy to get the shoes done, and I think about making it and I still can't catch up and I'm a little disappointed, I hope to catch up next time.
Don't have an accident, there will be a next time!
He Heng's forward position was inexplicably dropped by Ning Yuan, and this time the big favorite ran to lead the light cavalry to harass behind the enemy, and there was an uproar!
In the previous three-point combat deployment, there has been a dispute over which set to use, and there has even been an embarrassing situation where the number of votes for the three sets of plans is the same, but since the position of Ningyuan's vanguard has been finalized, this is a compromise that must be made for the entire strategic deployment of Dingguo to fight the stalemate, and it also reflects from the side that it will take a certain amount of time for the general of Dingguo to fully control the southwest forces.
General Dingguo looked at the map of the southwest thoughtfully, and He Heng stood aside and did not speak.
"There will be a lot of opportunities in the future, and this situation will not last long. If you can win, I'll take credit for you. General Dingguo said slowly after a moment.
He Heng didn't guess that Ning Yuan was a striker, but he knew that the striker must not be himself, but when he made strategic deployments, he still arranged himself in the position of a striker, just like a businessman doing business, the price given to the guests must not make the expected price, there must be room for bargaining, his purpose is not to be a striker but to leave a certain amount of flexibility for the overall planning of the general of the National Congress.
However, the general of Dingguo could not completely decide the deployment of personnel, and also reflected the situation of the southwest border pass to the general of Dingguo more intuitively from the side, which is equivalent to putting the opposition between the two forces in a clear place, and the general of Dingguo must take action, and he must also promote the people around him, and the general of Dingguo will also rely on him more.
This strategic deployment was proposed by He Heng, and no one knew better than him that the core of this battle was not to win, but to lengthen the front to restrain the enemy army, so that they would not dare to attack rashly, and win at least two years for the reorganization of Wei's border defense.
The king of Dali is ambitious, has always wanted to cross Sichuan and Yunnan Province from the territory of the country, the last time he raided and took Sizhou, this time he wanted to continue to encroach on the territory of Wei, even if Wei married the princess, it was useless.
The purpose of his provocation this time is also very simple, that is, he hopes that this time he can beat Wei to the point that he has no power to fight back, and can only obediently give up the southwest border, if this provocation Wei is soft, then he will provoke again.
Wei has to fight if he doesn't fight!
Of course, it is absolutely impossible to fight, and even if it is won, with the current situation of Wei and the southwestern border, winning the war will be a narrow victory at most, but because the war will bring greater disadvantages, such as people's livelihood.
This war must be fought, but the two countries must not fight, and this is the difficulty and main point of this war.
It's already a little cold at this time, sitting by the door doing embroidery work, the wind is blowing on the body is already a little cold, chestnuts tiptoe, poking their heads over, opening their mouths to speak but not daring to speak.
"What's wrong with you? What's the matter? Yuehua put down the needle and thread and said.
"Madam, the master said that if you can win the battle that day, I will come back to celebrate your birthday." In the eyes of the chestnut, don't look at the lady who is a few years older than her, it is like a model for talking and walking like a red painting, this will be crooked by the door, and he will come back to his mind when he does needlework, and it is really distressing to look at.
"Do you really say that?" Yuehua was a little incredulous, almost jumped up and asked.
"Yes! You were still sleeping when he left, so let me tell you! Chestnut said with certainty,
"Then why are you saying it now?" Yuehua's birthday is on the thirtieth of this month, and there are still twelve days of work, Yuehua is a little unconvinced, thinking that Chestnut is lying to her.
"How dare I lie to you! The lord said that the days are not accurate, if you can win the battle before the thirtieth day, let me sue you, if there is no news of the victory on the thirtieth day, let me stop talking, I see you this way...... I'll sue you, my lord is worried about you! Don't be upset, he left early this morning because he was afraid that you would be sad, and then you don't say what I said, otherwise you will scold me for having a big mouth. Chestnut said and ran away. (To be continued.) )
