Chen Mu really wrote a letter to teach Majiagang Clothing Factory to make clothes, but his letter is actually difficult to have any special significance.

The less we can deal with the cold, the more people know how to overcome the cold.

Wear three thin layers without thick clothes, and add fluffy things to the double-layer fabric to keep warm. From cheap reed flowers and kapok to expensive silk balls to cotton that became popular in the Ming Dynasty, our ancestors tried them all.

All he could do was just let the weaving craftsmen weave more square patterns or ribs on the cotton coat so that the cotton would not run and sink.

Because Chen Mu himself knew that the cotton coats of this era were more warmer than those of artificial cotton coats in another era, and if his people made down jackets, they would be warmer than those of that era, because he could be sure that the wool pants made in Majiagang were 100% wool, and the down jackets made in Majiagang would also be 100% Canadian goose velvet.

Uh, maybe it should be called Yazhou Goose?

In short, designing clothes for the flag army is one of Chen Mu's few habits.

This is a very interesting thing. Think about it, no matter how ugly the clothes you design, tens of thousands of people will wear them on them and win one after another majestic victory. This kind of clothes are like a symbol rooted in other people's minds.

Just like the 'green cloak' that has become a urban legend on the other side of the border.

Didn’t the First Emperor also set up a bunch of soldiers in his tomb? Sai Lu believed that their preferences were similar.

Since the military government office has come, the winter in Majiagang has begun to recover. The magistrate Zhao Yongxian immediately handed over the drawings in Chen Mu's letter to Zhai Ge'er, who is in charge of the military weapon bureau's clothing factory.

Zhai Ge'er is a double-island shoemaker brought back by Yang Tingxiang from Spain. His life can be called magic.

When he was a child, he was abducted by the Portuguese and traveled to Portugal on the other end of the world. In many Spanish cities, he made shoes and boots for monks and citizens in the monastery for half his life. He only had the opportunity to return with Yang Ting in his later years. As a result, he still failed to return to his hometown he was dreaming about. Instead, he settled in Majiagang wrapped in a snow-capped mountain.

If you change the place, no matter whether it is Jincheng or Changsheng, for Zhai Geer, being in a trustworthy face of compatriots, it is far better than Europa's life, but Majiagang?

But at least he is a high-ranking official here. Although he is not an official, and although he is a little cold, his treatment is pretty good, and Brother Zhai is content.

Even if he is given the opportunity to return to his hometown now, what can I do? I heard that Shuangyu Port was destroyed by the imperial army after he was abducted, and he had no relatives in Quanzhou. It would be better to enjoy his old age here.

Leather, goose velvet, and cotton cloth are all ready-made, but wool cashmere cloth is not ready-made and needs to be spun.

It has to be said that Chen Mu's winter clothes are quite demanding in terms of conditions, keeping warm and keeping cold is a must, but in addition, it does not affect activities. In addition, the coat also needs a removable multi-purpose fur cloak to cope with different temperature conditions.

Taking advantage of the time when the Military Weapon Bureau was spinning fine wool, Zhao Yongxian, Zhai Geer and others looked at Chen Mu's drawings and changed them again and again, which made the magistrate Zhao sigh: "The Grand Marshal regards making clothes as a cannon."

Chen Mu's "design talent" is obvious to all in the Ming Dynasty. Usually, when painting teachers teach Gongzi Ge'er to learn art, they find that students have no talent. In order to avoid the trouble of being dismissed, they usually complain in a tactful way, saying: Gongzi's paintings are like Jing Haibo.

In fact, this is nothing. No one is perfect. In the eyes of others, it is okay that Chen Mu, who sent troops to release horses, could not do anything well in other things. As long as he could win a foreign war, it would be enough.

But his design is so inconsistent with the aesthetics of the Ming people. As a result, he was so arrogant in the letter to Zhao Yongxian, saying: A good military uniform can improve the majesty and combat effectiveness of the army, make the flag army win the hearts of the girl, and make our enemies feel ashamed!

Zhao Yongxian looked at Chen Mu's design drawings. The plain mid-single pants and mid-single pants were short and trousers with double-layer cashmere wool, double-layer cashmere cloth, and the outer layer was also covered with goatskin on the chest, arms, thighs, elbows, shoulders and chest abdomen, so as not to affect movement to the greatest extent, which is very good in keeping warm and practical.

It is tolerated that the clothes are worn inside are warmer and have no aesthetic feeling, but what about this thick cashmere cloth coat on the outside? The whole clothes are not decorated at all, whether it is bright, dark or even ball patterns, there is nothing, without a trace of patterns or colors. The main body also requires that the cashmere cloth be dyed dark green or simply white and gray.

Although Zhai Ge'er said that the upper body of this military uniform should be quite good, it does not meet the aesthetics of Zhao Yongxian, Ma Jin and others. The soldiers and generals who served in the army unanimously believed that this uniform was too ugly and looked like a groom.

Which dynasty has the most gorgeous clothes and brightest color matching?

This must be the Ming Dynasty after Yongle!

"The general made this one? I know that this dress is not only for us to wear, but also for the future flag army to go to England to liberate the country of Ayran to deal with the weather there. There are also soldiers from the nine-sided country who can also wear it. Can the flag army wear this?"

Zhao Yongxian curled his lips. The court wanted to fight the Northern Expedition. Everyone knew that Longqing's decision to make peace was to wait for war, not to stop the war, but to accumulate strength; the matter of Ailan Kingdom was also ordered by the emperor to resolve the issue early. These two upcoming wars require winter clothes, and they are the best winter clothes.

But this outfit?

Ma Jin looked at Zhao Yongxian and shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like the Heavenly Army anymore."

"Also, cashmere cloth clothes, wool cloth clothes, and a goose vest in the middle to wear inside the breastplate." Ma Jin looked at the military uniform design and sighed: "Chen Shuai must have not estimated the cost of this clothes."

"If you want to have a single Majiagang sergeant, it would be nice to be able to match it in two years. I heard from Brother Zhai that this cashmere cloth is three times more difficult than other fabrics. That goose velvet, a big goose, is less than four taels, and a set of military uniforms are more expensive than armor. The main reason is that there are not so many weavers in Macheng, and there are no goats."

"Isn't this just right?"

Zhao Yongxian's eyes rolled in his eyes: "Isn't this just right? Chen Shuai's design is warm and practical, but it's not beautiful. Now that the ice and snow melt at sea are melting, I sent someone to visit Xiazhou to send a message to Tianjin Beiyang. Cashmere cloth is collected from China, and it can be delivered this fall if it has ready-made ones, and it will be enough for next year if it has not ready-made ones."

"Let's make a few pieces here first, think of ways to find out the effect of the ball patterns and decorations on them, and then all of them will be adjusted from the domestic market. If there is not enough goose velvet, then you will be adjusted from Nanzhili. The letter from Dashuai said that you plan to collect wool cashmere from the Western Yi Kingdom in the future - send them all back to Zhangquan, and let the weaver houses there process jacquard and transport them back, the best of both worlds."

"It's the cost that Ma Shuai said is a big problem. Zhao probably won't be able to get this set of winter clothes, but Dongyang is quite able to make money, right? Then give it to the flag army."
