While the recruits were training in full swing these days, the state-owned garment factory opened by Gu Yuan here also began to recruit workers.
A good-looking military uniform will undoubtedly increase the soldiers’ sense of belonging to the army.
Gu Yuan personally designed the new military uniforms for his own army.
There are no other requirements, just one, it must look good!
Why do so many people like Germany in World War II now?
In addition to their strength, there is another reason, that is, the German military uniforms in World War II are good-looking!
Yes, this is a big reason.
Many people are beauty dogs. Being strong or not is a temporary thing, but being handsome is a lifelong thing.
The military uniforms designed by Gu Yuan are similar to the German military uniforms in World War II. They are all black, with dark red cloud patterns on the cuffs and collars.
By the way, there are also armor.
In the past life, modern armies were not equipped with armor. That was because the enemy had the same weapons as them, and armor could not stop them.���Rifle.
But this world is different. Only Guyuan’s army has firearms.
The enemy uses swords, spears, and bows and arrows.
So a good set of armor can greatly enhance the soldier’s defense.
But the armor cannot be a burden to the soldier, and cannot affect the soldier’s mobility. Considering various aspects such as cost and manufacturing level, Guyuan designed a lightweight, well-defended, and non-mobile half-front breastplate, which can well protect the vital parts of the soldier’s upper body.
As for the helmet, it still uses the M42 equipped by Germany in World War II.
At the same time, the soldier is also equipped with an iron mask.
In case the enemy’s arrows hit the soldier’s face and cause casualties during the battle.
So, the image of the soldiers of the early army of the Kingdom of Los appeared.
Lined with black military uniforms, long boots on the feet, a belt around the waist to carry ammunition, a Mauser 98k rifle on the shoulder, a black front half breastplate on the chest, and a dark red Los Kingdom logo on the breastplate.
Wearing an M42 steel helmet on the head and a black iron mask on the face.
Not only does it look handsome, but it also looks intimidating…………
Old York was a tailor in the town of Cos. He had good skills and lived a good life. However, due to the invasion of the Kingdom of Nord, his town was lost and his business was destroyed by the army of the Kingdom of Nord. He finally found a friend and fled to the city of Los, but he had lost his livelihood.
In the city of Los, he could only make a living by mending clothes for others.
However, most of his income had to be taxed, so his life was extremely difficult.
He had no food to eat.
Recently, His Majesty the King announced a year of tax exemption, which made Old York very happy.
However, even with the tax exemption, he had no store and his livelihood was only slightly better by mending clothes for others, barely enough to keep from starving.
Life was still difficult
“I heard that Kes Town has been recaptured. Do you think we should leave Los City and return to Kes Town?”
Today, Old York found several other friends who escaped from Kes Town. They gathered together to discuss things.
They rented a house together and lived in a small space. They had to leave. They couldn’t live in Los City anymore.
“Old York! Old York! Good news!”
At this time, a middle-aged man walked in at the door. He looked very excited.
“What good news?
Everyone looked over.
“Is there any better news than the news that His Majesty is exempt from taxes?”
Old York disagreed
“His Majesty the King has opened a textile factory and is now recruiting workers on a large scale! Not only does each person get three silver coins per month, but they also provide food and accommodation!”
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone in the room was excited.
“Are you serious?!”
“Of course it’s true, many people in the city have gone there now!”
“Let’s go!”
Old York and his group were very excited. They asked along the way and soon found the newly opened textile factory. When
Old York arrived, he thought he would show off his superb weaving and sewing skills, but he didn’t expect that the recruiter just remembered his name, gave him a work badge and said,”You will be a worker in the textile factory in the future. Go and get a set of daily necessities.”
Old York was stunned. It was so easy to get the job? He hasn’t shown his skills yet.
“Why don’t you test the weaving skills?” asked Old York.
“No need, just having hands and feet will do.”
Who knew that the clerk would not even look at him after saying this.
Old York was not convinced.
Weaving and sewing are a craft, what does it mean to just have hands and feet?
Even if he had to learn from scratch, it would take at least three years to master the craft.
Old York made up his mind that he would show off his skills to all of them after the work started, so that they could see his skills. Old York took his work badge and went to get a set of daily necessities, including toothbrushes, toothpaste, water cups, rice bowls, bedding and other things.
“These things are all top quality. Is this steel? My God, this bowl costs at least one silver coin.”
A companion next to him touched the water cup and stainless steel bowl in shock.
“This thing is a toothbrush, right? In the past, only nobles could use it. How could they give it to us for free?”
Another companion was also surprised.
“The factory has regulations that employees must maintain good personal hygiene”
“There is also a bathhouse in the factory, and employees must take a bath every three days.”
The clerk looked at them and said.
Ordinary people in this era may not even take a bath once a year. Taking a bath and brushing teeth are the treatments that only the nobles have!
They are just workers, and they enjoy it like this?
The other employees of Old York were still surprised and came to the factory area.
“Let me first familiarize you with the equipment”
“This is a weaving machine. It’s not difficult to operate it this way. You just need to practice for a while.”
A foreman took them to a weaving machine. He took some balls of thread and put them on the weaving machine. After a while, a piece of cloth was woven.
“So fast?!”
Old York was dumbfounded. He was very familiar with this business, but he had never seen anything like this before. He even wondered if this loom was a magical creation.
“These are all given to us by His Majesty the King. Only with His Majesty the King can we use this kind of thing. Okay, I will take you to the dormitory later. You can get familiar with the usage this afternoon and officially start work tomorrow.”
The foreman smiled, his tone full of respect for His Majesty the King
“His Majesty the King is so awesome!”
“Our country is so lucky to have such a great man as His Majesty the King.”
The surrounding workers said sincerely.
With a loom, the work efficiency is simply doubled.
