Chapter 849: Difficulties in Guarding the Border (2)
Since she had already thought of it, Liu Jingxue naturally wouldn't be polite. She continued to communicate with Tuanzi in her mind.
"Tuanzi, can you give me a favor?"
"Master, if you have anything to do, just ask."
"You saw my aunt making a cotton-padded jacket before. Can you make one now?"
Tuanzi recalled the steps Wang Xiulan took to make a cotton-padded jacket and said, "It should be fine.
It was just cut the way she did it, half-sewn, stuffed with cotton, and then sewn up.
Anyway, I also use my mind to operate in space, and I have a sewing machine. It may be a little difficult the first time, but after trying it, it should be no problem. "
Liu Jingxue's eyes lit up, "I have a cotton-padded jacket that belonged to the original owner, but I never wore it because it was too thin and too short.
You can take it apart and study it.
Once you have researched it clearly, I have some fabrics from this era stored in my space. Can you help me make thick cotton-padded clothes out of them?
I don’t care about the style, I just want more cotton and enough warmth.”
"As for the size of the cotton-padded jacket," Liu Jingxue frowned. This was a bit difficult to deal with, after all, everyone's height and body shape were different.
But this is not custom-made for anyone, she just wants to make sure most people can wear it.
Besides, people of this generation, especially those who are soldiers, cannot be very fat.
After thinking about the body shapes of the people in the production team, he said, "The size should be based on my second brother's body shape."
Liu Jianjun's current body shape is similar to that of people in the Northeast.
Judging from his body shape, and the fact that he is wearing it inside and a military coat outside, most people should be able to wear it.
If you come across people with short stature, in this situation, it’s good enough to have something to wear, so just go with something bigger.
“Go and study it now, and make one to show me the effect.
If there is no problem, then you should hurry up and make as many cotton-padded clothes as possible tonight and tomorrow during the day."
"No problem," Tuanzi agreed readily.
There was limited fabric in the space, and even if Liu Jingxue wanted to make more, she had no choice because she had no fabric.
She now regrets not stocking up on more fabrics from this era.
But thinking about how I was short of money at the time, hoarding these things was already the limit of my ability.
"Forget it, don't think about it anymore. There's no point thinking about it now.
One cotton-padded jacket is enough for them to wear for several years.
At worst, I can find a way to set up a cloth factory in the future, stock up on more cloth, and then make more cotton-padded jackets and send them to them every year."
Liu Jingxue plans to send all the cotton-padded jackets made of cloth in the space to the soldiers at the border outposts and along the border lines.
There are some quilts stored in the space that I have stored recently, and I will send them to them when the time comes.
As for what will be given to the troops later, just give them cotton and let them do it themselves.
After returning to the production team, Liu Jingxue went to the cowshed to eat and went home. She planned to enter the space and use the time formation to quickly make a batch of cold and frostbite medicines.
We also need to prepare a batch of frost to prevent frost cracking and send it to the border outposts when the time comes.
After delivering the supplies to the border outposts, they will then be delivered to the troops on the border and in other places in turn.
But now I am in the north, so I can only send the ones on this side first.
There is not enough food in the south now, and at my current speed, one night is not enough for me to fly back and forth.
It's the New Year period now, and my eldest brother and the others are still here. We have to go to the cowshed every morning. One night is not enough. It seems I can only find an opportunity later.
“My eldest sister-in-law should go live with my eldest brother tonight, and I will live alone again, which will be more convenient for me to operate.
Prepare the cotton-padded jackets and medicines tonight, and start patrolling the northern border tomorrow night to deliver things to the border guards."
I think of the poultry in the space, the animals in the mountains, and the vegetables in the fields.
"Send them some more meat and some more vegetables.
The Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and with these things, they can have a good year.”
Liu Jingxue made up her mind secretly.
“But when the soldiers suddenly discovered something that appeared out of nowhere, they would probably be shocked and exclaim that it was a miracle.
They wouldn't worry about the source of the food and wouldn't dare to eat it." Liu Jingxue was a little worried.
If it were me, I wouldn’t dare to use something of unknown origin.
"Then enclose a letter saying that it was sent to them by a patriotic Xia countryman, and let them use it.
If you really don’t dare, you can find someone to do an experiment before using it.”
As for the fact that her kindness was questioned, Liu Jingxue was not sad at all. After all, she was a border guard and it was better for her to be cautious.
If they are not careful enough and the enemy uses some treacherous tricks to take them down, then she will have to worry about the safety of Xia Country.
As for the subsequent reactions that might be triggered by this, Liu Jingxue was not worried at all.
No matter how much they investigate, they won't be able to find it on me, so there's no point in worrying about it.
If your actions can bring some good effects, then it can be considered as a good deed.
"Less than 100,000 kilograms of food may not be enough." Liu Jingxue was a little worried.
“If it really doesn’t work, then let’s send out the food that was rich in spiritual energy.
Anyway, the ones who benefit are the respectable border guards, so it’s not a loss.”
Liu Jingxue was thinking about the follow-up arrangements and didn't pay much attention to the situation around her. She was awakened by the wailing of an animal before its death.
When she came to her senses, she saw a group of wolves appeared in front of her, their eyes glowing with faint green light.
At this time, Liu Jianjun had already drawn his bow and arrow and shot two wolves to death.
"Little sister, what are you thinking about? Don't you see the wolf is coming towards you?"
Seeing that he had killed two wolves and Liu Jingxue had not responded yet, Liu Jianjun couldn't help but remind her.
He couldn't help but shake his head in his heart. After all, this little girl had not received any systematic training and couldn't even do two things at once.
Even if she was thinking about something, she should have paid some attention to the situation around her. How come she didn't react even though the wolves were surrounding her?
If I hadn’t been here today, she would have been injured by the wolf and come to her senses by herself.
It seems that I need to train her later and teach her how to do two or three things at once.
What Liu Jingxue didn't know was that she was just careless for a moment and didn't pay attention to the situation around her.
What was even more coincidental was that Tuanzi, who usually would observe the situation within a radius of 20 meters around her, was sent by her to study how to make a cotton-padded jacket.
The combination of these two factors caused her to not pay attention to the situation around her, which made Liu Jianjun think that she couldn't do two things at once and decided to give her special training, which resulted in her hearing being uneasy in the following days.
The two of them worked together, but there were more than a dozen wolves that were not enough for them to kill. In less than a minute, all the wolves were killed.
After a wolf howl, the wolves on the mountain that had not yet come down turned into the forest and fled for their lives.
I think the wolf king knew he was no match for the enemy, so he told his wolf minions to give up on the two targets.
