There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 962

[Chapter 962 Chapter 962, Quartermaster Department]

Dao Hua at the Military Supplies Department can only know the most basic knitting stitches, which she learned by herself when she was bored in her previous life. Among the onlookers, the people in the sewing room were most interested.

Needlework is not difficult to learn. Daohua demonstrated it twice to the people in the sewing room, and these people quickly learned it. Not only that, but also innovated and fiddled with new needlework.

“Professional things should be left to professional people.”

Daohuashou is not as skillful as the sewing room, but she has seen a lot of woolen knitting supplies. Through her requests from time to time, the sewing room made them in a short time Bring different patterns of sweaters, hats, scarves and other supplies.

Guo Ruomei looked at the vests, gloves, socks and other small items brought up by the sewing room, and couldn’t help but said: “It’s convenient to use this bamboo stick to knit sweaters.” Daohua

: “Many people in Xiliang can’t afford it.” Weaving machine, but this bamboo stick is not hard to come by. My mother also saw that this stitching method is not difficult to learn, and the women at home can almost understand it.”

Guo Ruomei looked surprised: “You want to weave Spread the craftsmanship of sweaters?”

Dao Hua laughed and said, “I didn’t create the stitches for knitting sweaters. If I can spread it among the common people, it will save the common people from the cold when the cold winter comes.”

“This knitted Sweaters are light, soft, warm, and durable, and they can be refurbished at any time if they are worn out.”

Guo Ruomei smiled and nodded: “Wool is not rare in Xiliang, and it is really necessary to promote it. The people of Xiliang Life will be much easier.”

As he spoke, he looked at Daohua with a smile.

“You, you have done another good thing for the common people.”

Daohua smiled and said modestly: “It’s nothing. The development of Xiliang depends mainly on Yeyang. What I do can only improve a little bit. That ’s all for the people’s lives.”

Guo Ruomei: “That’s enough.”

That night, after Xiao Yeyang came back, he also looked through the woolen fabrics. The first thing he thought of was the army.

Although the soldiers now have cotton-padded clothes, the winter in Xiliang is too cold, and they will still be freezing if they only wear cotton-padded clothes.

With a sweater and wool trousers, the effect of keeping out the cold will be much better.

“You don’t want to pass on the stitching method of knitting sweaters. I will collect a batch of wool and tell you about it. In the cold winter, the common people can still warm up at home, but the soldiers have to patrol outside.

” Money, now he has to count carefully.

In the past, wool was mainly bought by rich merchants to make woolen blankets and felts. There were not many buyers, and the consumption was not much. However, once the stitches for knitting sweaters were spread, the price of wool might rise.

Naturally, Daohua didn’t disagree, and just asked, “Are you going to take care of these things? Xiliang belongs to the border area, and there are many frontier troops stationed there. The various materials needed are huge, and the capital does not have a special military department to manage them.” Are you looking at these?”

Xiao Yeyang’s eyes lit up: “Military Supplies Department?”

Daohua nodded: “It is the department responsible for supplying the daily supplies of the army.”

Xiao Yeyang said with a smile: “Don’t tell me, there really isn’t one. The guards are in charge of all the supplies needed by the frontier army.”

Military Supplies Department.

If Xiliang wants to separate the army from the government, he really should build a military supplies department.

Xiao Yeyang gave Daohua a big hug, and said with a smile: “You are really my lucky star.” Then, he paused, “What do you think Su Hongxin will be in charge of the Military Supply Department?” Daohua

: “Huh? ”

Xiao Yeyang: “Su Hongxin came all the way to join me. Now that the war with Xiliao is over, he can’t be allowed to stay in the army forever. Yuan Xuan and your eldest brother both have their own errands, so it’s not easy to leave him behind. .”

Daohua smiled and said, “You make up your own mind.”

The next day, when Xiao Yeyang arrived in the capital, he sent a message to Su Hongxin, asking him to come to Liangdu, then looked at the map of Liangdu, and finally planned to convert the Weijia Liangzhuang on the outskirts of Liangdu into a military supply department.

The Wei family’s grain farm not only occupies a large area, but is also very solidly built, with hundreds of warehouses, which are very suitable for storing military supplies.

At the same time, people were sent to start collecting wool.

In this regard, the officials of the capital are a little baffled.

“What do you collect wool for? Isn’t this just nonsense?”

“That’s right, the Dusi didn’t have much money, but now they want to build roads, post houses, and family quarters for the frontier army. The Dusi is about to be emptied ”

Forget it, don’t worry about what to do, if Prince Xiao wants to mess around, let him mess around, and when he runs out of money, he will naturally know to stop.”

Speaking of Su Hongxin, as soon as he received a letter from Xiao Yeyang , Immediately brought his personal guards and rushed to Liangdu.

The first sentence I saw Xiao Yeyang was: “I thought you forgot about me!”

Xiao Yeyang squinted at him, and gave him the plan of the General Supplies Department: “Military Supplies Department is garrisoned. , in charge of various military supplies for the Xiliang frontier army, would you like to do it?”

Su Hongxin didn’t finish reading the plan, so he nodded quickly: “Yes, yes.” After the war with Xiliao stopped, he stayed in the military town and thought about it. If you want to be promoted, you can only rely on your qualifications.

Xiao Yeyang said with a smile: “Is it enough to give you half a month to resettle your family?”

Su Hongxin smiled and said: “Enough is enough, but I have to trouble you to send me two people who are familiar with Liangdu. Buy the house first.”

Xiao Yeyang said directly: “Go to Wenxiu, he is familiar with this aspect.”

Su Hongxin: “Okay, then I will go down first.” After the

military supply department was drawn out, a large amount of wool They were sent there, and when the spring wool harvest was about the same, news spread from the Weiyuan Palace that everyone could go to the Four Seasons Ranch to learn how to knit sweaters with bamboo sticks.

“Using bamboo sticks to weave clothes? Is it real or not?”

“Which ranch is the Four Seasons Ranch? Why haven’t I heard of it before?”

“Stupid, there are Four Seasons Food Store, Four Seasons Fruit and Vegetable Store, and Four Seasons Pharmacy in the city. These shops are all opened by Princess Weiyuan, so the Four Seasons Ranch must also be in Weiyuan. Wangfei’s.”

“Then do you want to go and see?”

“Nonsense, I must go, can the things from the palace be bad? If bamboo sticks can really weave clothes, maybe I can wear new clothes this year. ”

After hearing the news, the officials of the capital department realized why Xiao Yeyang hoarded a large amount of wool a while ago.

With a curious attitude, everyone arrived at the Four Seasons Ranch.

In order to promote the needle method of knitting sweaters, Daohua also spent some effort. During the whole process, the people in the sewing room demonstrated how to wash wool, how to twist wool into wool of different thicknesses, how to dye, and how to weave wool into clothes.

The first batch of people who started to learn, the ranch also presented a set of bamboo sticks for free.

Today’s women almost know how to do needlework, and indeed, as Dao Hua thought, it is not difficult for women to learn.

When the first person knits a sock, everyone is no longer onlookers.

Yan Shouhou stood up with a smile and said: “My princess said that the ranch will teach you how to knit sweaters for free for a month. Anyone who wants to learn can come.”

“Items woven by people who bring their own bamboo sticks and wool You can take it away, but if you don’t bring these things, you have to keep what you wove.”
