Qin Hui first convened a meeting of all the important generals, told everyone about the current form, and after getting the approval of all the generals, he began to replenish the soldiers, and then began to train, Pearl found a very old training manual from his dowry book, and later found a book of tactics, Qin Hui did not hide his personal interests, and taught his generals these training methods and tactics, and taught these generals a fixed few days a month.

On the other hand, the equipment and weapons were too backward was also a problem, and he wrote very clearly in the secret letter he gave to the emperor, and the emperor gave him a secret decree that he could use half of the silver in the treasury. But even so, it can't improve the quality of the weapon, can't make the armor stronger, Pearl found the books in his dowry, studied it with Qin Hui, and invited skilled craftsmen from all over the world. The armor is the same, after a month of study, it finally has some results, and the pearl is tired enough, and he has neglected his son a little, no way, this life is not as attention-grabbing as the previous life, especially that person.

But this time, although the pearl did not take out the real product for them to compare, but the information given was enough, but it was a matter of time, after a while, the pearl found that Kuyin had passed, and when it was time to eat in the evening, before the pearl spoke, Qin Hui sent everyone away and said to the pearl,

"Now that the equipment has been studied, the weapons have been greatly improved, and several weapons suitable for infantry to deal with cavalry have been designed, but now it is money, the purchase of ore from the South Seas, the purchase of cowhide and other raw materials, and the wages of craftsmen. I had to use my family's money to make a new saddle. I have some of it myself, and there is a difference of 50,000 taels, so I brought it out directly from the library, you won't be angry, right? ”

Pearl was now sure that Qin Hui did have a small treasury, but he still had some pain, and asked, "Do we have to get the money?" ”

"It will not be in vain, I have already written a will to the Holy Lord, and I have used the bribes and congratulatory gifts sent to me by others to prepare armaments. The Holy One has agreed. Madame rest assured. The old man has a plan in his heart, this is a design for the people and the country, even if we suffer a loss, it is nothing. On the contrary, there will be great benefits. This. Madame must believe that she will never let Madame lose money. Again, with this thing. In the future, Mrs. can rest assured that she will receive gifts boldly. The position of the master will also be more secure. ”

Pearl is a smart person, and immediately said with a smile, "Master tell me a truth, how many silver taels you went out this time." ”

"I have indeed received a lot of bribes over the years, a total of 550,000 taels, plus 50,000 taels in our treasury, a total of 600,000 taels." Qin Hui observed Pearl's reaction, Pearl didn't seem to be unhappy at all, and said to Qin Hui,

"Since it's a good thing, I'm not going to give up, so be it! Give me your winter uniform! I'll put the silver on first. Then there are wound medicines or something, and there are a lot of wound medicines in my workshop that work very well. There are a few more happy occasions in our family, and the silver gifts we get, I let people transform it, and I also got 230,000 taels, plus the gold and silver tickets I received, it is enough to have 287,000 taels, these money, my lord completely asked someone to transform the artillery, I really have drawings of artillery and shells here! The cannonball is not round yet, I remember it was in the dowry, which I collected at the Zhuozhou dock. But I don't know if it works.

The next day, find out the drawings, the drawings are very detailed, even the ratio of gunpowder, the indicators reached are written in English, Qin Hui still has to find someone to react, no way, if not, how can Pearl explain that there will be Chinese on the drawings of foreigners? Pearl took out such money for this family, when you don't help men at all, the feelings become weak, it will be inevitable. The pearl is to play a little role in Qin Hui's work, besides, as soon as the gun goes off, the gold is ten thousand taels, if he wins the battle this time, he will definitely gain a lot.

With the strong support of Pearl, Qin Hui went to work, with the last time the price of food rose, Qin Hui's heart had a shadow, this time he had money, so he went to the south to buy a lot of grain, the price was also cheaper, and he could buy more. Since Pearl took over the matter of making military uniforms, he also moved, first ordering a large amount of cotton from foreigners from the Zhuozhou wharf. I also sent a letter to my hometown, and sent her all the down that I had saved in the past, and continued to buy a lot, and on the other side of the pasture, Pearl told the steward there about the wool, and now it is just right to shear the sheep, and when it is winter, it is not good to shear the sheep. There is still time now, more than a month is enough time for Zhuozhou to send cotton, and as for the fabric, it is to find a large supplier in the south to let people weave and dye the ordered dark green fabric, and then transport it here.

Pearl has already begun to select the people to make cotton clothes, because there is no machine, the assembly line cannot be made, but in order to ensure the quality of the military uniforms produced, all must hire a group of people. After renting the space, when the space is arranged, let them first wash the wool to feel and smell, and then spin it into wool, and teach them to knit gloves and socks, which must be sewn with leather on the palm of the hand, so that it will not slip when holding the weapon, and the leather sewn on the back of the hand can keep them warm. There were also shoes made for these people, all of which were tall boots made of cowhide, the officers put boots with fur and fur, the soldiers used cotton lining, and the insoles were wool felt.

When the fabric arrived, Pearl gave the women four numbers to cut it, and when the cotton arrived, a large group of people mixed the cotton with the down and sewed it. The officers were given robes, but they were also mixed with cotton and down. The high-ranking generals use down, the fabric used is also wear-resistant tweed or satin, and the hat is woven with wool, which is convenient and warm, as long as the tweed fabric is sewn outside, it can definitely survive the winter. There is still a little time before the winter clothes are actually distributed, but seeing that the weather is getting colder day by day, Pearl also told his subordinates that they must work overtime. If she didn't do it well the first time, how could Qin Hui and even those people in the army trust her in the future? Pearl doesn't want to make money, because in the previous life, I saw those sergeants freezing to death and starving to death, and I couldn't bear it, not to mention that I had silver, why didn't I accumulate virtue for myself and my children? That's why I took over this job. Besides, these soldiers and generals only went to the battlefield to defend their homes and the country, camped in the wilderness, ate and slept in the open, and the people who protected themselves and their families paid a little, so what else was there to be reluctant to?

Pearl is busy here, and the news from the family is that Jade is pregnant, and her husband Liu Da has been promoted to the fourth rank this time, and he is still serving in the army here. When Qin Hui came back, he also said that his brother-in-law was under him, and I believe that Qin Hui would definitely give him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions in the future. Although Pearl has not seen Liu Da, it was also mentioned in Jade's letter to her, saying that Liu Da is a very cautious and upright person, because his grandfather and grandmother died in succession to keep filial piety, which delayed the marriage, and then because he was at the border, it was impossible to go back to the capital to find his daughter-in-law. If it can be regarded as marrying Jadeite. The jade is like a jewel, and the love is terrible, think about today's jade and the two girls in the previous life can not be compared, since I was a child, I have studied with pearls, no matter what is not worse than those ladies, and even in some aspects than those people are much stronger.

In the previous life, Pearl was always worried that the second sister's temper would cause trouble, and the problems at home would not be handled well. There is also a hand in cleaning up the people, and the hands of the two younger sisters are also stained with blood. Now that I'm pregnant, it's even better. Pearl hurriedly sent someone to prepare a gift for the jade in the capital. Also from their own space to find a statue of Guanyin carved out of the golden silk nanmu, two feet high, this carving craft is the previous life of those skilled craftsmen spent a lot of effort to make, and it is also open, pearl also chanted a lot of scriptures in front of Guanyin, this Guanyin statue is naturally not ordinary, put it in the sandalwood box, and find a string of bracelets carved by golden silk nanmu to jade, I hope she can give birth safely, it is estimated that this time his own mother will also pass.

Waiting for the gift to be sent, Pearl suddenly thought of a problem, parents into Beijing, it stands to reason that they are going to visit the Qin family, Jade once said, she also went to the Qin family to visit, but the Qin family people are very cold to her, the words are said that they have not seen the world, fortunately Jade is not an ordinary person, did not give them a good sound, turned back to write to the pearl, said that he regretted going back, afraid that the pearl was caught in the middle of the embarrassment, the pearl praised her instead. If my parents go this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to get anything good, and when I think of this, Pearl feels very stuffy.

At dinner in the evening, Pearl talked about his parents who might have to take care of his second sister in the capital, Qin Hui heard this, looked at his wife again, and found that his wife's face was very bad, with worry, and then thought of Pearl had told her last time, her sister went to visit her mother, and the two broke up unhappily, this time the father-in-law and mother-in-law went to the capital, according to the etiquette, they did have to visit, and at that time, I am afraid there will be no good results. Qin Hui is also a little embarrassed, this matter is not easy to deal with! Seeing the appearance of the little wife, she was also very worried, thinking of this, Qin Hui said to Pearl, "Don't worry about this, I will write to my aunt, don't worry!" ”

Pearl knows Qin Hui's aunt, she is the concubine in the palace, because the relationship with the queen mother has always been good, all of them have a good life in the palace, and they also have their own daughters, but they are with their relatives, and her words, the old lady should consider them carefully.
