"This is great. These knitted clothes are not only light, but also very warm. These gloves and socks are even better. If all the soldiers can use these, people will not freeze to death in the cold winter months in the future."
Jiang Hexi was stunned, looking at Wen Jianzhou, who was rarely serious, in surprise, and said: "I didn't expect Mr. Wen to care about the soldiers so much. It really makes us ashamed."
Wen Jianzhou waved his hand and said: "Actually, I don't know anything about this. This is all what Wu Wei came up with. It's just that he is embarrassed to tell you. The imperial court's military expenditure has never been enough. The Huo family has to subsidize the soldiers all year round. Recently, Wu Wei has been short of money.
, I don’t have enough money to buy winter clothes, and I can’t let you suffer, so I have to be the villain.”
Hearing this, Jiang Hexi immediately looked at Huo Jingchen, and saw that he looked away guiltily, and said with a helpless smile: "Actually, these knitted clothes don't take long to make cotton. They only need about half of the cotton used in previous cotton clothes. Besides, the ladies in our workshop
They are all very skilled, and each of them can sew several pieces of clothing every day, so they don't spend much money."
"Anyway, it's getting hotter today, and the knitting business in this county has also stopped. Now we can just make clothes for the soldiers. If we start stocking up now, we will definitely have enough for this winter."
"That's alright. I'll just put aside this first payment of money. Just remember to pay it back to me when everything is fine." Wen Jianzhou clapped his hands and said happily.
"I estimate that Huo Jiajun needs about 50,000 sets of winter clothes, but naturally the more the better, so I'll leave it to Miss Jiang to take care of it." Wen Jianzhou quietly calculated in his heart and gave instructions in a gentle voice.
Jiang Hexi naturally agreed, pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Mr. Wen has such a clever idea, General Huo will definitely accomplish great things with you as his military advisor!"
"Of course, Wen gave up the romance of the capital city just for the great cause of Wu Huan. Although it is bitterly cold in Jingzhou, as long as Wu Huan is safe, Wen will definitely follow him to the end." Wen Jianzhou became more and more proud, with a look of righteousness on his face.
road.
Jiang Hexi looked at him with more admiration and was deeply moved.
Huo Jingchen glanced coldly at the pretentious Wen Jianzhou, resisted the urge to kick him, gritted his teeth, turned to Jiang Hexi and cupped his fists and said, "Huo, thank you Miss Jiang in advance for the soldiers."
"General Huo, why are you doing this? I also received the money, so I will naturally handle the matter seriously." Jiang Hexi winked mischievously and said with a smile.
"Miss Jiang, why don't we discuss building a winery first? After all, this matter is not simple." Wen Jianzhou interrupted impatiently.
Jiang Hexi was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect him to be so anxious. She nodded subconsciously and said, "Okay."
"Miss Jiang, don't blame me for being impatient. I have long wanted to get involved in the winery's business, but I have no secret recipe. The nobles and wealthy families are clinging to their own recipes, and I am a heavy drinker.
, I had no choice but to buy wine from Beidi people.”
"But the Beidi people have always been very open-minded. Although the wine they sell is good, it is very expensive!" Wen Jianzhou felt extremely distressed when he thought of the money he had spent over the years.
"But it's good now. With Miss Jiang here, Wen believes that I will no longer have to waste money in the future, and maybe I can even make a lot of money on drinks. After all, I believe in Miss Jiang's strength!"
"Wen Jianzhou flattered without leaving any trace.
Jiang Hexi smiled brightly and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Wen. I can guarantee that the wine I brew is no worse than the wine made by the Beidi people! I will definitely realize Mr. Wen's vision in the future."
"That would be great, Wen will wait and see, just waiting for the good news from Miss Jiang!" Wen Jianzhou became even more happy and said cheerfully.
The two of them were chatting and laughing, completely immersed in the grand cause of making money. They were so entranced that no one else could get in the conversation at all.
Suddenly a cold wind seemed to blow by. Liu Ying couldn't help but touch the back of his neck. It felt cold for some reason. She subconsciously looked at the expressionless Huo Jingyun at the side in confusion.
Huo Jingyun silently shook his head at her, secretly glanced at the dark-faced master, and signaled that she'd better be quiet.
Liu Ying became more and more puzzled, but she knew that Huo Jingyun would definitely not harm her, so she continued to eat her snacks seriously without caring about anything.
