The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

Li Nan and Ke Minmin changed their clothes first.

He walked out of the locker room cautiously.

Both of them knew what the other would look like in the outfit, but they had no idea what they would look like in it, so they hurried to find a mirror.

Lesbians all love beauty, even if they have joined the army, it is still the same. Although the clothes are not their own, it does not prevent them from appreciating the effect of wearing them.

"This fabric?"

"It seems that ours are different~!"

After walking out of the door, feeling the flexibility of the grass-green military uniform on his body, and then looking at the military uniform on Ke Minmin next to him, Li Nan could see a subtle difference between them even though he didn't know how to make clothes.

"Her clothes are made of a blend of cotton, polyester and nylon, which is what the local comrades call Dacron. Yours is pure cotton~!"

"Come look in the mirror~!"

In the exhibition room, Mr. Chen watched the two female soldiers come back first, waved to them, and pointed to the discipline mirror that had been moved in.

"The advantage of the ternary blended fabric is that it is more wear-resistant than cotton, looks crisp when worn, dries quickly when washed, and the color is brighter~!"

"However, the breathability of this fabric is not that good. Although it contains cotton, the content is low and it is only barely comfortable~!"

Mr. Chen looked at the two little girls standing in front of the mirror and taught them a lesson very seriously. But how could the two little girls understand the difference?

At this age, if you live in rural areas, you have already started to come into contact with cloth. If you live in the countryside and are the eldest sister in the family, you already know the difference between one kind of cloth.

"Looks pretty energetic~!"

The head of the logistics department also looked at it very seriously. The military region is still exploring what the new military uniforms will look like in the future.

The above requirements are to be concise, clear, and simple to wear so that the soldiers are comfortable.

These words are relatively macro and broad, without any clear direction, and require people below to explore on their own. Therefore, the art troupe was specifically asked to go on business trips to try out these new military uniforms produced by the Chengdu Bedding Factory.

Of course, it is still uncertain whether it can become a military uniform. Not only in Chengdu, but also in the clothing factories stationed in several other major military regions, they have been busy with this matter recently.

"Come on, open your arms so I can see the length of your sleeves~!"

The tape measure on Mr. Chen's neck came into play at this time, and he began to measure the length of the two girls' arms and cuffs.

After all, these clothes are not tailor-made, but made according to previous sizes and are relatively loose.

"Come on, pull your arms in like this and feel if your elbows and armpits are tight or loose. If you feel uncomfortable, you can raise your voice~!"

After recording some data in the small notebook he brought with him, Mr. Chen gestured to the two little girls to follow him and do some slightly larger movements.

Military uniforms must not only look good, but also be practical. Although they are for female soldiers and cadres, they also have to take into account the intense movements during daily training~!

The two little girls, at this time, became like puppets, following the old man's demonstration and feeling the feeling of wearing the clothes.

"Isn't it a bit too small to distinguish the ranks of soldiers and cadres by the collar badges on their collars?"

The head of the logistics department standing nearby was also looking at the two female soldiers with a scrutinizing gaze, as they kept stretching, opening and closing, jumping, and bending over, his eyes finally falling on the two red military ranks on their collars.

Unlike the previous golden silk embroidery, this one is made of pure cloth. The officer's emblem, the two horizontal bars and the stars on it, are sewn on by a sewing machine. It is so simple that you need to look carefully to see it clearly! In particular, the collar badge is smaller than the epaulettes. If there are four stars, it is even difficult to distinguish them together.

"When I was designing it, I thought about it. You see, this shirt has four pockets on the top and bottom. If it is just to distinguish between officers and soldiers, then the soldiers can just have one less pocket on the bottom, or one less pocket on the top, and that will be enough~!"

Li Nan and Ke Minmin seemed to smell a hint of gunpowder. Neither of them dared to say a word. After hearing what the old man said, they subconsciously looked at their bodies and found that they indeed had four pockets.

"The clothes are the same style and the fabric is the same, so the logistical pressure will be much smaller. Two lower pockets can save at least one foot of cloth. Three million eight hundred thousand feet of cloth can be saved. If each person has two sets of clothes for summer and two sets for winter, fifteen million feet of cloth can be saved~!"

"That's not even mentioning the labor savings~!"

"If the collar badges are removed, they can be replaced with something like this. Without the need to sew military ranks, it can also reduce a lot of pressure on logistics~!"

Wow, Mr. Chen walked to the military uniform from the Red Period and pinched the collar. There were only two simple pieces of red cloth. It was so easy to process.

“Can you save so much?”

When the head of the logistics department heard the number of 15 million feet of cloth, he was shocked. In the whole country, each person could only get a little more than one foot of cloth per year. More than 10 million feet, that was a huge amount.

This is without taking into account the redundancy. After all, military uniforms also need to be reserved for war preparedness. It is impossible to have just enough of four sets for 3.8 million people. The war preparedness number must be multiplied by at least one more number. He is from the logistics department, so he doesn't know too much about this.

"The fabrics are all small. You forgot about the labor. We have to consider the labor. When we changed to the Type 55 military uniforms that year, military clothing factories across the country worked overtime and almost failed to finish them by the end of the year~!"

Seeing that he was not paying attention to his idea about collar badges, Mr. Chen looked a little angry. Whether it was more than 10 million feet or more than 20 million feet, the most important thing was to save labor.

Saving labor means saving the biggest cost. By unifying the military uniforms into one style, officers and soldiers will be consistent so that there is no need to distinguish between the production of soldiers' uniforms, officers' uniforms, and rank insignias. The significance of this is greater than the more than 10 million feet of cloth.

The logistical pressure was reduced sharply. The military clothing factory only had to consider adding two more pockets to the shirts, or not adding two pockets. Even if the officers were to have two pockets, there were only a few of them. With the difficulty reduced sharply, the processing speed of the clothing factory would also increase sharply.

War is fought on the basis of productivity, not on the appearance of military ranks. The ability to produce the uniforms needed by frontline soldiers faster is also a manifestation of improved combat effectiveness.

"Okay, Mr. Chen, you convinced me~!"

The head of the logistics department finally understood what Mr. Chen was trying to express.

He also rose step by step from being a logistics officer. If the clothing is really promoted according to Mr. Chen's ideas, it will be of great benefit to both the logistics of the army and the country's funds.

The most important thing is that the task has been issued from above, and the people below are also in the process of exploring. According to Mr. Chen's idea, this set of military uniforms will be very simple.

No matter what the answer to the multiple-choice question is, at least one of them was chosen correctly. It is concise and capable, officers and soldiers are the same, with two pieces of red cloth on the collar.

Although he was still looking at the two female soldiers who were in charge of trying on clothes, the chief had already simulated in his mind what the military uniform described by Mr. Chen would look like.

"A little, a little cold~!"

When trying on clothes, after the excitement of jumping around passed, Ke Minmin looked at herself in the mirror, hugged her arms, and suddenly shivered.

"Well, it's almost done. Come on, put on your military coat~!"

At the end of December, the temperature in Chengdu gradually dropped. Ke Minmin didn't know whether it was because the new clothes were not warm enough or the clothes themselves did not retain warmth well, but she felt a little cold just after stopping for a short while.

"The economics of Dacron are acceptable. The chemical fibers in it can be mass-produced, and the quality is easier to control than cotton. But the disadvantages are also obvious. The fabric may need to be thicker, and the warmth retention is not good~!"

Each of them wore a new-style military coat. The style of the cotton coat looked very familiar. In the later labor protection stores, it cost at least 300 yuan per set. (End of this chapter)
