Ming Zuo

Chapter 438 It's Totally Different

"Okay, it's time to go, everyone has stopped."

A woman walked up ahead, beckoning the team to stand still.

This woman, Ren Dong recognized, was the elder sister Bai that Li Erwa was talking about.

This is what surprised Ren Dong even more.

Such a team of thousands of people, the leader is actually a girl.

And this girl is very confident, what she says is decisive.What made him most dumbfounded was that the whole team bowed their heads to her and obeyed her words.

Ren Dong quietly asked Li Erwa, and only then did he know that Sister Bai is actually an official.

What is it called the officer of the Transshipment Department of the Logistics Department of the New Army.

It was all words that Ren Dong could not understand.

This made him very confused, not knowing where he was.

Sister Bai came over and saw Ren Dong and a few people around her.

"Fellow townsmen, thank you very much. Without you, I am afraid that this batch of food would not have arrived in time."

As she said that, the elder sister Bai actually grabbed handfuls of copper coins from the baskets of the people around her and began to distribute them to them.

"This is your salary, take it all, don't lose it. After you go back, give it to the mother-in-law, don't dare to waste it."

Seeing the silver money, everyone was very happy, and they took it in their hands one after another, thank you very much.

Ren Dong actually got paid, but he wanted to know more about other things.

"Bai...Big Sister Bai, are you still short of people here?"

Sister Bai stood still.

"Brother, don't you go home? It's almost Chinese New Year."

Ren Dong smiled bitterly.

"I'm all alone and I have nowhere to go."

Sister Bai looked at him fixedly.

"Are you literate?"

That's not how illiterate people speak.

Ren Dong also knew that he couldn't hide it, so he simply admitted it.

"I learned some."

Sister Bai clapped her hands and laughed.

"Oh my god, this is great. We are counting money and food here, and we are getting dizzy. Since you can read and write, come with me and find you a job."

Ren Dong hurriedly picked up the copper coins and got up to follow Sister Bai.Unexpectedly, a person stood up next to him and asked anxiously: "Sister Bai, I can also read and write, can I stay and work?"

Big Sister Bai never refused to come, and said with a smile: "Come here quickly, those who can read are all treasures."

The man ran over and stood side by side with Ren Dong.About forty years old, with a clear face, but there is a spirit in the eyes.

Ren Dong originally thought that Sister Bai had arranged for them some urgent errand, but he didn't expect that the place they were taken to was a place similar to a weighing scale.

"Director Li, I brought you two people who can read and write. They should be able to help you."

Sister Bai found a young man in military uniform and explained her purpose.

The young man looked at Ren Dong and the two and asked, "Does it count?"

Ren Dong and the man were not used to this kind of questioning, so they pondered for a while before saying, "Yes."

"Then come with me."

About to leave, the young man changed his mind when he saw the two men's tattered appearance.

"Chen Wazi, take the two of them to take a bath first, then let the doctor have a look, and change into clean clothes before coming here."

A soldier next to him rushed over and said to Ren Dong and the two: "You come with me."

Ren Dong and the man were quite suspicious, and couldn't help asking: "Is there something wrong between the two of us?"

Chen Wazi was an eighteen-year-old young man, covering his nose and frowning.

"Both of you stink, aren't you afraid of getting sick?"

Ren Dong and the man looked around, and suddenly found that the people here were all clean.Not to mention the unkempt ones, you can't even see the stains on your clothes.

What kind of army is this?

At least the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty he had seen were not so dignified.

Moreover, although these people were wearing Ming military uniforms, Ren Dong could tell that the details were quite different.

First of all, the front plackets of these military uniforms have been modified, with vertical buttons, which look more snug and comfortable than the Ming military uniforms.

Secondly, none of these generals wore armor, but they would wear khaki cotton cloaks over their military uniforms, which looked very warm.

He didn't know it was called a cotton coat, he just thought that this army was so extravagant that even ordinary soldiers could wear a coat.

In addition, he didn't see cold weapons such as swords, guns and spears on these generals. Wherever he passed, the weapons in the hands of all the soldiers were all firecrackers.

It's really strange that they even have to control their sanitary instruments now.

Ren Dong and the man didn't dare to question, they followed Chen Wazi left and right, and came to a barracks.

After entering, I found that the inside was steaming, as if a heat wave was coming.

Chen Wazi said: "Take off your clothes here, and then go inside to take a bath. There is hot water and saponins inside. After washing, come out and change clothes."

Being stared at by Chen Wazi, Ren Dong and the man had no choice but to take off their clothes and enter the room.

When I entered, I found that it was very spacious inside.

There are many large wooden barrels placed against the surrounding walls, and each wooden barrel has a pipe on it.Hot water flowed out of it and filled into buckets.There is also a gourd scoop floating on the water in the bucket, which should be used to scoop water.

Both of them are not stupid, and they immediately understand how to use it.

Even though there was a stranger in front of him, and he still met with sincerity, but at this time, he could only endure it.

The two deliberately separated a little distance, one of them found a wooden bucket, and began to scoop up water to wash the whole body.

As the hot water poured down on their heads, every piece of skin on their bodies became joyful, and both of them couldn't help but gasp in admiration.

Ren Dong couldn't remember how long he hadn't taken a hot bath.

Even in Laizhou City, even eating is a luxury.

Unexpectedly, in such a wild military camp, there is such enjoyment.

The person next to him obviously felt more comfortable, and his mouth became more talkative.

"It's unbelievable that the Ming Dynasty has such a wonderful thing, even the mere soldiers are so happy."

Ren Dong couldn't help turning around, staring at the man, and couldn't help it, so he opened his mouth.

"How old is this idiot, I haven't asked for his name yet."

The man stopped and looked back at him.

The eyes met, and an inexplicable emotion was aroused in the air.

This was a signal that only they understood, and it allowed the two of them to break through the barrier in an instant and find a spiritual resonance.

If there is a piece of soap on the ground at this time, then it will be another story.

Since there is no, the plot returns to normal.

No wind, no rain, no yards and no cars.

"A friend doesn't look like an ordinary person. I don't know where to get high. Why did I fall here?"

Ren Dong verified something, and said with a smile: "Isn't it the same, my dear friend."

After all, the two couldn't help laughing.

Coming out of the bathroom, Chen Wazi was still waiting outside.Not only that, but also prepared clean clothes for them.

Just looking at those clothes, Ren Dong and the man were a little dazed.

will not wear.

Chen Wazi had to teach them personally.

"This is underwear. It's worn inside. Put it in from below, and put your head out from here. These two sides are sleeves, which are elastic and fit snugly."

Ren Dong and the man followed suit and quickly put on their underwear.He suddenly found that although this kind of cotton clothing has no buttons and laces, it fits all parts of the body without affecting his movements at all.

Ren Dong became curious and asked, "Brother, what kind of clothes are these?"

Chen Wazi handed him the underwear and said, "It's underwear. But the attendant seems to have said that it's called a shirt. The big guys don't understand it, so they call it underwear."

Ren Dong heard many key words, but in order to avoid suspicion, he didn't dare to ask more.

He took the underwear, looked at it, and was dumbfounded again.

Well, he is quite a big man, and Chen Wazi has to teach him how to wear underpants.

But after putting it on, Ren Dong immediately realized the benefits.

This kind of underwear is elastic and can be tightly bound at the waist, so you don't have to worry about it falling off.Moreover, the bottom of the trousers and the thighs fit very well, without the embarrassment of the cold wind passing through the birds like the previous obscene trousers.

If the clothes inside had surprised the two of them, it was only when they got the coats that they realized how different the army here was.

The clothes they changed into were the winter uniforms of the new army.

As soon as Ren Dong took the coat over, his hand sank.

Good guy, it's really heavy.And the heavier it is, the more cotton is stored in the clothes.

Feeling the weight of the clothes in his hands, Ren Dong was very suspicious.

Are the officials here not corrupt?

Are the officials here not cheating?

The clothes for the soldiers are so well made, is it true that all the officials here are upright officials?

Chen Wazi helped the two of them put on their military uniforms, knowing that they didn't understand anything, so he simply introduced them one by one.

"Buttons should be fastened like this, and the cuffs should also be fastened here, otherwise the cold wind will blow in and it will be very cold. In the upper pocket, you can put money, paper and pens. In the lower pocket, put some snacks, papers, etc. This is Armed with a belt, tie it up, and you can hang things on it."

"Wear the shoes like this, tie the laces like this, and tuck the trousers into the shoes. Loose clothes are not allowed here. If you are seen, you will be cleaned up. Remember?"

After changing into the clothes here from the inside out, the curiosity of Ren Dong and that person has already rushed to the sky.

They want to know more and more now, where are they going?
