What were the first factories in Qinghe? In fact, until now, the munitions factory is the most important industry in Qinghe, not only the production of weapons, after all, more than 100,000 loyal soldiers need military uniforms and leather goods every year is an astronomical amount.

From the woolen factory to the weaving factory to the military boot factory, a large number of military factories have been built around the military production in Qinghe, and this factory now not only produces all kinds of military uniforms, but also supplies the products it produces to the people, such as the woolen materials produced by the woolen factories and the cloth woven by the weaving factories.

There is a large demand in the civilian sector, but munitions are still the most important products of each factory, after all, they were founded from the beginning to meet the needs of munitions production.

Because in a few months it will be the new year's conscription period, when there will be tens of thousands of conscripts, and there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers who need to be issued military uniforms in the new year, so the quilt factory is extremely busy, hundreds of female workers in the factory constantly waving scissors in their hands, where they cut the cloth, cut the whole cloth into suitable pieces of cloth, and then are stacked aside, waiting to be shipped to the women around the city to sew.

In this era, the clothes of the common people rarely had the help of tailors, and the women of the family sewed them themselves.

Although the quilt factory was established, because there was no sewing machine, the quilts of the Loyal and Righteous Army were subcontracted to the women of the city and the surrounding towns to sew, and it didn't matter if they didn't know how to cut the style of military uniforms, all the quilts were cut in the quilt factory, and they just had to sew according to the pattern.

It is this subcontracted production that allows the Loyal Army to provide soldiers with two sets of single military uniforms and one woolen military uniform every year, as well as two shirts and sweaters similar to tennis shirts.

Of course, this kind of subcontracted production is also inevitable in the large-scale production of military uniforms in this era, and there are even records in the history books that the queen sewed military uniforms for soldiers.

And the people of this era can be said to be familiar with this kind of subcontracted production, they quickly assigned the work, and formulated the acceptance criteria, sewing unqualified need to be fined and compensated fabrics.

In order to avoid being penalized, the women often had to sew extremely strong to meet the requirements of the uniform.

Early in the morning, before the bell rang for work, Guiyun, who had rushed to the city from the countryside early in the morning, came to the quilt factory, lined up to hand over the sewn clothes, receive the wages, and then receive new clothes.

"The next seam does not need to be pulled too tightly, this seam is used to sew the raw edge of the fabric to prevent the raw edge of the fabric from falling apart. This lock edge is tightened, but it may be counterproductive, and this stitch should also be denser, next time you should pay attention...... "Like everyone else, when Gui Yun handed over the sewn military uniform, the inspector who inspected the military uniform checked the stitches and patterns of the clothes one by one, and then picked out some faults, in this regard, Gui Yun was not worried, when he was young, he had already started to do needlework, and he could count the needlework in the village.

Naturally, I don't worry about being rejected because of poor needlework. But even so, when the inspector inspected it, she still looked at it carefully, after all, every military uniform was sewn by her painstaking efforts day and night.

"Actually, this seam military uniform is denser, but there is nothing new." While Gui Yun was thinking like this in her heart, the inspector over there was checking the ten military uniforms she had handed over, and only after a careful look did he say to her.

"Okay, one set of military uniforms costs 37 Wen, and the salary of ten sets is 370 Wen." 370 Articles!

When she took the payment slip, Gui Yun only felt that her breathing became a little short, this was the first money she earned.

370 yuan for ten days, if you work for a month, you can earn a tael of silver, a year is ...... Just when Gui Yun was calculating that she could earn more than a dozen taels of silver a year, she heard the man say to her.

"Okay, let's go to the bank first and exchange the check for money, now the style of the new military uniform has not come down, and there is no work in the factory for the time being." Not alive yet?

The new military uniform has not come down yet? What new military uniforms? Gui Yun took the receipt in his hand and looked at the inspector puzzled.

"No more work?" The person next to him also asked.

"It's, what, how come there is no work to do?"

"No, our family is still waiting for me to sew clothes and eat. How can you not live? ”

"It's not that there is no work, it's that the style of the new military uniform has not been decided, and our loyal army is going to change to a new uniform. When the style of the new military uniform comes down, there will naturally be work to be done at that time. "What a new uniform, isn't this dress very good?

Walking on the street, Gui Yun, who was carrying a triangular silver dollar and 70 coins, muttered with some dissatisfaction, and even when he saw the soldiers on the street, he couldn't help but think in his heart.

"What else do you want to change for such a beautiful outfit?" When Gui Yunyu was complaining in his heart and was annoyed that there was no work to do, Li Fugui in the office of the economic envoy over there was standing in front of the public house.

As a guard in the government office, this is not the first time he has been here, in fact, just an hour ago, he was in the corridor with his comrades to change guards, but now he is here again, but not as a guard.

Because of his background in the heavy infantry battalion, Li Fugui's figure was quite tall, 5 feet 8 inches, and his long-term physical labor and military training made him burly and strong, so he naturally became a heavy infantryman, and later he was drawn to the government guard.

And now he was dressed in a new military uniform, and he was also equipped with a neat set of equipment, ready to be reviewed by the envoy.

"Li Fugui, come in." The chief's voice came from inside the door. Li Fugui hurriedly pushed the door and walked in, and couldn't help but be startled.

I saw that in the public house, in addition to the envoys, there were also more than a dozen generals of the Loyal and Righteous Army who were sitting and staring at him, as if there were three sessions in the play.

Li Fugui hurriedly saluted and said loudly: "Report!" Li Fugui, a senior soldier of the guard of the government office, was ordered to report for duty! Wang Deyun stood up and returned the salute, and then said.

"Take a break!"

"Yes!" Such a dialogue appeared in the 17th century, it is indeed too abrupt, but this is precisely the biggest difference of the Loyal and Righteous Army, looking at this clear scene, Zhu Mingzhong, who found a sense of familiarity, even couldn't help but show a smug look in his eyes, after all, all this is what he introduced into this era.

At the same time, he carefully looked at the soldier in front of him, he was holding a fourteen-year-old flintlock gun, although the flintlock rifle had been finalized as early as last year, but it was not until this year that it was finalized as the fourteen-year flintlock gun of Yongli, and its overall appearance was very similar to the long brown bass in England, and the same steel bougie and copper cap were used, and in order to make the musket more durable, the barrel flintlock and other parts were added materials.

In addition to the long ones, there were also short flintlock guns for the cavalry and navy. Of course, in the mouths of the people and other Ming armies, this fourteen-year-old flintlock is the same as the previous transformation of the flint and flintlock

"Spontaneous gun" or

"Stone Hair Gun", and now, the standardized name is

The "Fourteen-Year Flint Hairpin", with a fourteen-year-old bayonet on its ten heads, is wearing a new-style military uniform, and a German-like Y-belt made of cowhide is attached to the cowhide armed belt around the waist, and around the waist are two bullet boxes of equal size.

It looks very powerful.

"After a little effort, this kind of ammunition box is made of cowhide, and the inside is soaked in oiled wood as the inner support of the bullet box, and there are three rows of 29 ammunition holes on the inner support, which can be loaded with 29 fixed paper shell bullets, and each person carries 58 bullets...... "When Wang Deyun was explaining there, Zhu Mingzhong was full of interest, and he noticed that these two cartridges were different from the back box of his original imitation of the Japanese Meiji 30-year-old bullet, which changed not only the size, but also a small box on the side of the cartridge.

At this time, Wang Deyun pointed to the ammunition box and continued to explain.

"Because flint is as expendable as ammunition, and the old cartridges were not designed with this in mind, soldiers were not allowed to load flint by leaving a magazine free. And this little box is used to hold flint. Although Zhu Mingzhong originally borrowed from the weapons of later generations to design a set of quite advanced carriers, he still encountered problems in actual use, and now he has improved them in order to better adapt to the times.

Zhu Mingzhong naturally welcomed such improvements, and even in his opinion, this meant that the military factories were throwing away their crutches little by little and began to learn to walk on their own.

。

"It's a kettle." Wang Deyun pointed to a cylindrical thing on Li Fugui's waist.

"As in the past, the kettle is made of bamboo, but now it's bigger. The addition of a cloth cover on the outside can make it easier for soldiers to use the strap to hang on their backs, which is more convenient to use than in the past. Zhu Mingzhong secretly thought to himself, the bamboo kettle is the standard for thousands of years, the Chinese march in the field to fight, the northern nomads use sheepskin water bags, and the Han people use bamboo tubes, only in the past there is no requirement for the size of the bamboo tube, and now the requirement is to hold at least 1.5 pounds of water.

This is also the most basic requirement, and of course, it is now treated by processes such as oil immersion to ensure that it does not decay due to long-term use.

On the other side of the belt hangs a cloth grenade bag, which contains military-made grenades - although the cost of the grenade is relatively high, but the effect is excellent, the original old grenade has been sold to Zheng Chenggong, Zhang Huangyan, and even transported to the Northern Rebels.

"After the army is completely redressed next year, there will be a large number of supplies to help the rebel army in the north!" ————————————————————————— story is wonderful and is continuing, and please support us!
