Chapter 11 Arranging Outfits
This time, he might have to live in Gucheng County, so except for the wealthy families, Zhang Xianzhong, the lower class, did not conspire and ordered that he would not be harassed.
Although all the shops in the city are closed, there are still some small vendors, not to mention the blacksmith shop.
However, all the blacksmiths were busy and had to build weapons for each battalion. As the most undervalued firearm battalion, they naturally had to be ranked last.
Qin Yu came to a blacksmith shop in the west of the city and saw an old man in his fifties and sixties, with two disciples of fifteen or sixteen, knocking him non-stop.
"Master Liu, how busy are you?"
"It's the leader of Xiao Qin. I'm afraid you have to wait for two more days for those gun tips."
When the old man saw Qin Yu coming, he stopped his work and said with a wry smile.
"Do you have to wait for another two days?"
"Master Liu, can you see if you can work overtime at night? I can pay you money."
"Captain Xiao Qin, it's not a matter of money, but our master and apprentice are too busy. Why don't you go to other blacksmith shops to check it out?"
Although the old man was a little moved, he still shook his head. They not only had to do these weapons for the rebels in vain, but if they could not complete them on time, they might even be beheaded.
"It's okay, then I'll wait for two more days!" Qin Yu waved his hand, obviously he didn't want to make things difficult for the master and apprentice.
The reason why he didn't go anywhere else was because he had observed it for a long time. The old man had the best skills.
The gun head he was going to shoot was not an ordinary gun head, but a triangular shape, and the technical requirements were still very high.
"Okay, as soon as the task assigned by the king was completed, I will help the leader of Xiao Qin to build it." The old man smiled and had a good impression of Qin Yu.
"Well, then you guys are busy, don't worry, I won't let you fight for nothing, no matter you want food and money." Qin Yu fisted.
"Then thank you, Chief Xiao Qin." The old man quickly hurriedly hugged his fists and returned the gift.
After Qin Yu turned around and left, the old man touched his beard, looked at his back, and nodded secretly.
"Master, this kid is still kind and knows to give money. Humph, unlike other people, not only do they not give money, but they also scold them at all times."
"I'm still beating someone. The day before yesterday I was slashed and I was angry when I thought about it. To put it nicely, it's the rebels, but in fact it's worse than the bandits."
"Shut up, I've told you so many times, disaster comes from the mouth, and disaster comes from the mouth. Why don't you remember?" The old man looked stern and scolded the two incompetent apprentices.
The two apprentices were scolded and had to slung their heads and hit them again.
After leaving the blacksmith shop, Qin Yu did not rush back, but came to a yard not far away.
"Ah! Leader Xiao Qin is here!"
"Captain Xiao Qin is well, and his clothes and shoes are all done. See if we are doing it right?"
As soon as he entered the door, dozens of aunts surrounded him and stared at Qin Yu with anticipation.
"Um!"
Qin Yu took the clothes and shoes they sewn, looked carefully, and finally nodded with satisfaction.
Last time he got three pieces of cloth, he thought about making a uniform for each of his subordinates. The cloth was not enough, so he specially used the money to buy a batch of cloth at the Houchang.
Uniforms are typical tight short-skinned clothes in the Ming Dynasty. For example, today's hot weather, in addition to long-sleeved coats and pants, there are only boxer underwear he designed and leggings made of two cloth strips. As for the shoes, they are cloth shoes.
In order to get all these equipment, he had enough money left for more than one hundred taels of silver.
The remaining ten taels are the wages prepared for the aunts and blacksmith Liu in the Houying camp.
"No, not bad, all aunts have worked hard these days, each of whom is worth a penny of money."
"hiss!"
More than 20 women immediately let out a breath of breath. They originally thought that Qin Yu would have burned a lot of incense to give him more than a dozen copper plates or one or two kilograms of grain.
Even if Qin Yu doesn't give it to them, there is nothing he can do, and he can't refuse to do it.
"Well, leader Xiao Qin, do you really give us a penny?" a woman in her forties asked in a low voice.
Everyone else stared at Qin Yu nervously.
"Of course it's true. It's natural for you to work for me and I'll pay you your wages."
As Qin Yu said that, he took out a ingot of silver, which looked almost five taels, and asked them to divide it by themselves.
More than twenty women immediately used scissors and small scales to distribute the fruits of their labor.
Qin Yu asked his two subordinates to pack their clothes and shoes away.
When they returned to the camp, the young men saw that although the leader did not bring back weapons, they picked four baskets of clothes and shoes, and they all surrounded them.
One hundred teenagers, who are in better condition, can have a set of ragged clothes, and those who are in poor condition only have a pair of pants.
There are many people who beat barefoot. This is the last time I beat the bandits, I took off a lot of clothes from the dead, otherwise it would only look even more ugly.
"Don't squeeze, everyone has a set of military uniforms and shoes, everyone has them, stand in the order of height."
With Qin Yu's order issued, a hundred teenagers quickly lined up in four groups.
The tallest one is only 1.6 meters tall, and the shortest one is 1.4 meters tall, obviously it has been strictly selected.
Qin Yu sent out his clothes and shoes one by one, then waved his hand and said, "Give you a stick of incense time, go take a shower and change your clothes, and come here to gather."
"Yes! Thank you, leader."
The teenagers were happily rushing towards the well in front yard with their clothes in their arms. Some of them grew up so old that this was the first time they wore new clothes, and they were so excited that they shed tears.
On the playground.
One hundred teenagers put on brand new blue military uniforms and pedal shoes, standing with straight benchmarks one by one, and their faces were suddenly completely renewed.
Qin Yu nodded. These people are the capital for him to make a fortune in the future, and it is not too much to be nice to them now.
"Each person comes up and get two more leggings..."
Qin Yu actually didn't know how to tie him, so he fumbled for a long time before he could barely find a way, and he looked a little bit tidy.
At this time, many heroes who watched the fun came from outside the camp. When they found that these teenagers were wearing exactly the same clothes and shoes, they drooled in envy.
"This leader Xiao Qin is so fucking generous. He is willing to make new clothes for these little kids. Tsk tsk..."
"That's a big deal. I heard they cook three times a day, and they do it every day, and they are full."
"hiss!"
"Is this impossible?"
The crowd let out a breath of breath, and then a big man questioned: "No! Let go of eating? You can't be so hungry!"
"Hmph! What I saw with my own eyes can still be fake? If the leader of Xiao Qin had not recruited people, I would have joined the firearm camp."
After hearing this, the others were extremely moved. Compared with the leaders of the other battalions, the Qin commander was so good, and he was valued by the king, and his future was simply unlimited.
"What are you doing here? Get out!"
