"Warriors, defeat the barbarians as soon as possible, so that you can go home for the New Year"

Some passers-by waved their arms and called out loudly to the soldiers, and the soldiers turned their heads in unison with smiles on their faces, but without the permission of the officers, they could not answer, and the officers who led the team waved their fists vigorously and responded: "Defeat the barbarians, go home for the New Year"

"Defeat the barbarians and go home for the New Year," the officer's soldiers shouted neatly. Soon the slogan was shouted in the ranks of these recruits who left the city.

In a newly opened workshop, Su Jun listened attentively to the shouts coming from the street, and said to Yan Qinghua beside him with a smile:

"Master Yan, the soldiers hope to defeat the barbarians before the Chinese New Year, I really don't have any confidence?"

Yan Qinghua's spirit was bright, "My grandfather, time is not important, the important thing is that the soldiers have the confidence to win, the military spirit is available, and a big victory can be expected." ”

The owner of this workshop standing opposite the two is the emperor of Anping County, Yizhen, since he took the lead in paying 100,000 taels of silver to buy the debts incurred by the county head, this gentry is considered to be the head of the flood luck, not only his son entered the county capital on an errand, Su Jun also gave him another opportunity to make a fortune, that is, to produce some military items.

These military items are not big items such as tents, these things have long been regular cooperative businessmen in Taidang and Merlot counties, but what Su Jun handed over to him were some small items that looked inconspicuous, but the profits were absolutely considerable.

These small objects, although they look inconspicuous, but the profit is extremely objective, the cost is not high, the processing is convenient, and the sales are naturally not worried.

One of them is gloves, there was no such thing in the army before, winter operations, most of the soldiers' hands are frozen and cracked, if you fight outside for a long time, the cracked blood is often stained with the weapon, and it is heart-rending pain to take it off, many veterans wrap their hands with strips of cloth, but this kind of strips of cloth cannot protect their fingers, and secondly, after wrapping the strips of cloth, the flexibility of the hands has also decreased significantly, Su Jun remembered to make production gloves after seeing this situation.

This kind of gloves is not the same as ordinary gloves, the gloves are thin as a whole, and the five fingers are partially rubbed, so as to ensure the warmth of the gloves, and not to let the soldiers take off the weapon due to the heaviness of the battle when fighting.

The second is the hood, in the same way, the helmets worn by the soldiers were simply lined with a layer of cloth before, Su Jun designed a hood, when wearing a helmet, the hood was first brought on, and then the helmet was covered, which not only kept warm, but also increased the protective effect, and the living conditions of the soldiers were greatly improved.

"Lord Gun, this is a sample we produced, you see, if you agree, then use this as a model and produce it on a large scale."

Huangfu Yizhen is full of energy and has become a regular supplier to the military, and the wealth contained in it is even a pig can guess.

Picking up the gloves that were made by Huangfu Yizhen, Su Jun laughed, "Mr. Huangfu, are you making military gloves for us, I think it's Wang Sun Gongzi, everyone young ladies wear your gloves and ride on a tall horse to look more stylish." ”

Huangfu Yizhen's face couldn't help sweating, the county head meant that he was not satisfied, he was very careful to make these gloves, and if he made them at this cost, he didn't make much money, and his own attention was to put a long-term line, catch a big fish, and make a long-term investment in the county head

"Please advise the county head, if it is not suitable, the little old man will order someone to modify it"

"Mr. Huangfu, I want to use these things for the soldiers, the first is to keep warm, the second is to be non-slip, and the third is to be strong, if you meet these three things, you can take into account comfort, as for being beautiful, if you guarantee the above points, it doesn't matter" Su Jun smiled.

"Little Lao'er understands," Huangfu Yizhen suddenly realized.

"Mr. Huangfu, this first batch of goods will be delivered in a month's time, can you guarantee that it will be delivered on time? If you fail to deliver on time, not only will you be penalized, but subsequent orders will not be given to you. ”

"Don't worry, Lord Gun, the small ones will be delivered on time, in accordance with quality and quantity. Now that the workshop is fully operational, I am preparing to expand production and recruit more workers. ”

Su Jun said as he walked: "Mr. Huangfu, most of the women you need here are female workers, and a large part of these female workers are military dependents of my Taidang County Army, martyrs, you can't treat these workers badly in terms of wages, if I hear a hint of rumor, you know the consequences." ”

Huangfu Yizhen said with a smile: "Lord County, that can be, the villain is a businessman with rules and disciplines, and he is paid according to his work, and there will definitely be no situation as the county head said." ”

"It's a pity" Su Jun bent down and picked up the filling in the handset from the workshop, shook his head and said: "These silk fills in it, although it has the effect of keeping warm, but compared to cotton, it is far less, but unfortunately, although I asked around, I didn't find this kind of thing." ”

"Cotton?" Huangfu Yizhen's eyes widened, "What kind of flower is that?" Lord Commander, what role can he play? ”

Su Jun took a breath and said, "Cotton is a good thing" At the moment, he simply told Yan Qinghua and Huangfu Yizhen about the purpose of cotton, "It's a pity, it seems that our Dawu Empire doesn't have this thing?" ”

"I don't know what this thing looks like? Lord Commander, have you ever heard of this thing there? Huangfu Yizhen's eyes lit up.

Su Jun described the appearance of the cotton and said, "I haven't seen it either, but I have heard it said in the early years that this kind of thing is said to have this kind of crop in the far west. If there is cotton, we will use it to make cotton clothes, bedding, military tents, shoes and socks, and then we will not be afraid of twice as cold in winter. ”

Yan Qinghua on the side became more and more surprised the more she listened, and looked at Su Jun and said, "Lord County, is this kind of flower you are talking about called cotton?" Does he really have this purpose? ”

"Of course," Su Jun said, "It's okay, what did I lie to you about?" ”

"Lord County, what color is this flower blooming?" Yan Qinghua asked again.

"It's not necessarily, red, pink, white, whatever," Su Jun replied nonchalantly.

Yan Qinghua jumped up all of a sudden, and the reaction was so great that Su Jun and Huangfu Yizhen were startled, "What's wrong with you, Yan Junshi?" ”

"I've seen it, I've seen this thing." Yan Qinghua said loudly.

"What?" Su Jun was surprised and delighted, "Where did you see cotton?" Has anyone in our Dawu Empire planted it already? ”

Yan Qinghua shook her head, "No, no, I saw it from the white peony, the white peony raised him as a flower, I asked her curiously once, she said that when she was from the generation of the country, she saw this kind of flower on the mountain, and thought it was very beautiful, so she dug it back and raised it." ”
