After rebirth, I win people's hearts by being cute
Chapter 125 Procurement
The training time is not long, especially for newcomers, they can’t last long.
"Okay, call it a day."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't wait to start jogging on the spot, fighting in an attempt to warm themselves up.
Ermo ran to Su Cheng trembling, "Brother Cheng, what's wrong with you today? Why are you so patient?"
Su Cheng said mysteriously: "I have a secret weapon."
Ermo's eyes widened in disbelief, "Brother Cheng, you also brought charcoal?"
Su Cheng was speechless, "Look, where can I get angry?"
"Then how did you do it?" She pulled his hand again, and when she saw that his hand was not cold, she pulled his clothes again, "Let me see what you use, how can you keep warm."
Su Cheng was a little annoyed by him, "Hey, get out of the way."
The general came over and saw them standing there and asked, "Aren't you two cold if you don't go warm up?"
Before the two of them spoke, Wu Mazi stood up and said, "General, I report that Captain Su cheated."
People around him looked over, wondering what cheating was and what else he didn't know.
Ermo was anxious, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who cheated?"
"Humph, I heard everything you said just now. If this kind of practice is cheating, who knows if the others are cheating."
Wu Mazi attacked Su Cheng as if he had found evidence of something wrong. Fearing that the general hadn't heard it, he said, "It's on him. If you don't believe me, you can ask him to take off his clothes and show us."
"Captain Su, do you dare?"
That very determined look made everyone very excited, "What is it? Let us take a look too."
Although the general liked Su Cheng very much, he would not condone such behavior. If it was really as Wang Mazi said, he would definitely criticize it severely.
Su Cheng didn't look at Wu Mazi, and said to the general: "General, that was just a joke between Ermo and I. I didn't expect Mazi to take it seriously."
"Then why don't you take it off so that everyone can check it out?"
The people around him started to make a noise. Su Cheng put his hands on his clothes and prepared to take them off, but the general stopped him, "Go back and take them off. It's too cold here."
Wu Mazi was not convinced, "Who knows if he will throw away the things when he returns."
The general's eyes widened. "I'm standing by, can I still protect him?"
The general has been fighting wars all year round, and just a look from him can scare everyone so much that they dare not speak.
Su Cheng took off his outer clothes without saying anything, revealing the coat Liu Huan made for him from under his two outer robes. "Do you want to take off more?"
"Didn't you put a hand warmer there? How could this happen?"
Su Cheng looked at him with contempt, "Am I stupid? Take the hand warmer."
After he finished speaking, he picked up his clothes and put them on. The general looked at him thoughtfully, "Okay, everyone go back, it's over for today."
Everyone rushed to the tent impatiently. The general stopped Su Cheng and asked, "Is that the clothes your brother sent in?"
"Yes"
"Come to my tent later. I have something to talk to you about."
As soon as the general left, Ermo looked envious, "Brother Cheng, why does the general always look for you? I'm really envious."
Su Cheng said unhappily: "Do you want this blessing?"
Ermo waved his hands repeatedly, "Forget it, I don't have that fate. I just want to wait until the war is over safely, go back and ask my mother to find me a wife so I can live a stable life. I will be satisfied with this life."
Wu Mazi passed by and said, "You can dream about it. You will die on the battlefield sooner or later."
He could even say such vicious words, and Ermo was so angry that he almost cried, "Brother Cheng, is it really like this?"
Su Cheng said to him very seriously: "No, we will all live long lives. Who cares what those villains say? We will be fine even if he dies."
After Su Cheng returned, he went to the general's tent, where he and a few of his trusted aides were the only ones.
"Take off your clothes"
Su Cheng was so scared that he did as he was told. After taking off all his clothes except his underwear, he hesitated and said, "Do you want to take off more?"
"no need."
After the general finished speaking, he took off his clothes, picked up his coat and put it on. A warm feeling came over him, making him feel very comfortable, although there was a little smell.
The general wore it out and came back, "This dress is nice. Go ask your brother where he bought it."
"It would be better if there were pants."
Su Cheng thought about it and told the truth, "This dress was made by my family, not bought."
"I didn't realize your family has this skill. Then go ask around. If you can make some and sell them to the army, we can all wear these clothes and fight those barbarians comfortably."
Seeing Su Cheng's stunned expression, he asked again: "Why, are you embarrassed?"
"It's not that it's difficult, I don't know if I can do it, and..."
"Okay, why worry so much? Just go and ask. I will be responsible for any problems."
Su Cheng returned with his mission, and found the house full of goose feathers, both washed and unwashed.
Liu Huan was leading everyone to pick and choose, and even Su Yi was dragged by her to do the hard labor.
"Brother is back, Changbai, go buy some food."
Changbai was having a headache, so when he received the order, he immediately put down the goose feather in his hand and went out, fearing that Liu Huan would regret it the next second.
"What are you doing back here, little brother?"
Su Cheng sat in Changbai's position and asked, "What is this for? Is this what my clothes are made of?"
"Amazing, isn't it? It's warm, isn't it? I gave this to you and your brother is not happy. You are becoming more and more childish."
Su Cheng smiled so hard that his mouth stretched to his ears. "I knew Huanhuan loved me the most."
Su Yi said expressionlessly, "She said this is a test product. If it's not done well, it won't be your turn."
Su Cheng didn't want to hear that. He said proudly, "I don't care. Huanhuan and I grew up together. We are the closest."
What he said about wearing the same pair of pants is not an exaggeration. When they were young, they wore their clothes and pants together.
"Okay, you guys keep exaggerating. I'll go make some soup for the guy."
Mainly, she just wanted to be lazy.
Su Cheng became quiet when he saw her leave. Su Yi asked, "Why did you come back?"
"The general thought that this clothing could protect against the cold, and asked if he could sell it."
Su Yi didn't say anything, and Su Cheng suddenly realized, "No way, did Huanhuan really get this to sell?"
Goose Feather didn't bother to pick and ran to the kitchen to find her, "Huan Huan, how come you know everything?"
"Go back and tell the general that these clothes are very expensive. If possible, please cooperate. I won't make any money, but I can't lose money either."
Su Cheng didn't expect the task to be completed so quickly. He patted his chest and said that he would guarantee to complete the task.
After eating and packing up the meat, he took the pants he had just made back home, and challenged Su Yi fearlessly, "Second brother, I won't be polite then."
After the general took the pants back and tried them on, he was very satisfied with them. He immediately wrote a letter to the capital to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about it.
Su Cheng brought the food back, and Ermo took the lead to take his package, "Brother Cheng, let me help you get it."
The person next to him teased, "You don't want to get it for Chengzi, you want to find something to eat inside, I don't know you yet."
Ermo didn't refute, "Humph, it's none of your business."
After saying this, he consciously took out the contents and ate them, feeling very at ease.
Su Cheng ignored him and put on the down pants given by Chang Rong. The sealed design at the bottom kept his upper body very warm.
He thought it was feasible.
While the letter was being sent back to the capital at full speed, Liu Huan had already begun collecting goose and duck feathers in the city. Both kinds of down would be fine. He also had someone build a drying room specifically for high-temperature drying and sterilization.
Many women were also hired in the city to boil water, wash, and sort the fine wool.
When everyone heard that the clothes were made for the soldiers in the barracks and that there was money involved, they became very enthusiastic.
"I've never heard that goose feathers can be used to make clothes."
"Yeah, I'm really curious about how it's done."
None of the ducks and geese raised in the city escaped, and all the duck meat was sold cheaply to the military camp, so the military camp always praised the good food.
Because it was on the border, Liu Huan was not afraid that others would learn the technology, so he boldly rented a large yard and worked with everyone.
Each piece of clothing was covered with a lot of fluff. A few ladies tried them on out of curiosity and found that they were no different from the leather they wore.
"This is good, it's warm."
"Yes, next year I will feed more ducks and geese and make a few clothes for myself."
Another aunt said, "Don't do that. This is someone else's secret recipe. It's not easy to learn it."
Liu Huan smiled indifferently, "It's okay, everyone can do it if they want to. I also think about the hard work of the soldiers in the barracks. The winter is long, so it will be more comfortable if they dress warmly."
"Miss Liu is still kind and righteous"
The yard was bustling with activity. In the prefect's mansion and in the yard of the Second Young Master Han, Han Shuo listened to the servants' report with an expressionless face.
"Is that woman really doing this business?"
"Yes, and it's a job that will definitely make money by cooperating with the general of the military camp."
Han Shuo thought for a moment, "If I join, will Dad look down on that loser even more?"
The servant echoed: "What the Second Young Master said is true. How can he be compared with the Second Young Master?"
After saying that, Han Shuo no longer hesitated and went to the lady's yard, "Mom~"
Mrs. Han and Miss Han were sitting by the fire and eating snacks in the house. When they saw him come in, they pulled him over to sit down.
"What are you doing here? Have you completed the task your father assigned to you?"
Han Shuo replied proudly: "Don't worry, mom. I've done everything. Anyway, I'm better than that loser."
Mrs. Han was satisfied. "That's good. He won't be able to achieve anything. You will have to take charge of this family in the future."
Miss Han at the side couldn't wait to ask: "Brother, have you contacted Lord Su now?"
When she saw Su Yi that day, Miss Han fell in love with him because he was young, promising, handsome and elegant.
He is much more promising than the young man she met in the border town.
I can continue to live in the capital in the future, which is much better than the young man in the border town.
"Not yet. Lord Su is very kind and few people approach him. Even my father is polite to him."
"That's right. Lord Su is the top scholar who is the god of literature. He is not comparable to ordinary people."
After saying that, I remembered that they said that a girl came that day and seemed to have a relationship with him, so I asked, "By the way, who is that girl to him?"
"It looks like she's a fiancée. The girl hasn't tied her hair up yet, so she's probably not married yet."
Miss Han's eyes lit up. "If they don't get married, it's uncertain who will be Mrs. Su in the end."
Mrs. Han was also very satisfied with Su Yi, and thought that it would be perfect if her daughter could marry a Beijing official in the future.
"Mother, please invite that young lady here in your name. She is now cooperating with the military camp to make clothes, which is very profitable. I believe that as long as I can get involved, I will definitely impress my father."
"Okay, I'm willing to do anything as long as it's good for you."
Madam Han agreed immediately, "It just so happens that the bougainvillea in the yard has bloomed. I'll have someone cut some branches and bring them into the house, and call a few ladies to accompany us so that we can have a good meeting with Madam Liu."
Miss Han said with disdain, "A woman who shows up in public all day long must not be from a good family. Maybe Lord Su's family forced her into it."
When Liu Huan received the news, she was wearing an apron and picking goose down with everyone else. Because there was no separator, she was picking very slowly and her eyes were almost round.
"Mrs. Han, what do you want me for?"
Changbai thought about what the man had just said: "He said that the bougainvillea in the yard has bloomed, and he invited everyone to go and see it. It's just one flower, and he specially asked people to go and see it."
Liu Huan shook his head. It was normal for a straight guard to be straight, so he didn't bother with him.
"Where is your master?"
"I went on an inspection trip with the prefect today and haven't come back yet."
Liu Huan raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you go?"
Changbai said: "The place we are going to is a bit far, the master asked me to stay at home and be at the young lady's disposal."
When Su Yi came back in the evening, Liu Huan told him about this.
Su Yi said expressionlessly: "It's up to you, if you want to go, go, if you don't want to go, forget it."
"Then what should I bring with me?" Socializing is still necessary.
Su Yi told what he knew, "The prefect's wife is his second wife. The eldest son Han You you met that day was born to the previous wife. The second son and eldest daughter were born to this current wife. It is worth mentioning that the two wives are sisters."
Liu Huan's eyes widened. "Does that mean the two sisters married the same man?"
"I don't know. You just need to know that this lady is a second wife."
Liu Huan nodded, "Okay, I know what to do. Let's go. It's better to keep a low profile on someone else's chassis."
……
The next day, Liu Huan changed into his newly bought clothes and a cloak and went to the banquet. As soon as he got off the carriage, he was stared at and pointed at.
"Who is that person? Why haven't I seen him before?"
"I don't know, maybe it's Mrs. Han's guest."
As they were talking, Madam Han came out in person, greeted everyone with a kind smile, then took Liu Huan's hand and said, "Madam Liu is finally here, come in quickly."
After entering the house, everyone asked, "Madam, may I ask who this is?"
Madam Han introduced everyone with a smile: "You may not know this yet, this is the female member of Lord Su's family, Madam Liu."
She deliberately didn't say that she was his fiancée. When everyone saw that Liu Huan was not dressed like a woman, they guessed that Su Yi had found her temporarily in the border town.
The enthusiasm on everyone's face faded a little, and they said casually: "What a beauty, I don't know where she came from."
The "which one" here refers to the brothel in the red-light district, and everyone will understand it as soon as they hear it.
Someone nearby echoed, "It must be Yihong Courtyard, where there are only beauties."
