"Let's go!"
At the Ba Shui Pier, with a shout, the boat with alcohol and lighters was pushed away from the pier by the people on the shore with long poles.
Bo Zhu stood there with his mouth tightly pursed and his eyes filled with worry.
The 20 Tubo people who went back with the boat stood straight and looked at Bo Zhu with firm eyes.
They didn't know why they had to go to war. They only knew that they could risk their lives for Tubo.
Bo Zhu didn't close his eyes until the boat disappeared into the night. He turned to look at the busy pier at night.
The porters at the pier were wearing the Ready-Made Alliance's vest, Zhengyi Alliance's trousers, and Rongyi Alliance's pouch and shoes.
The porters who came to work while the night was slightly cooler formed a circle and changed their clothes.
After changing their clothes, they went to eat first. They were afraid of wasting firewood to eat at home.
Eating at the pier was a cost. The pier cooked rice in big pots and burned coal.
The porters could eat staple food by spending a little money.
They took the staple food to drink free soup and eat free salted vegetables.
The Yi Alliance was in charge of the soup and salted vegetables. The Yi Alliance's advertisements were so useful that they took on many big jobs.
There were merchants who came from hundreds of miles away to order clothes in Chang 'an.
After shipping them back, they added some money and sold them to others.
The merchants made money. It was cheaper for the people who bought the clothes to buy them than to make them themselves.
It took many days for the people to make a set of clothes. A large piece of cloth was used to make clothes.
The remaining corners could only be used to mend the clothes.
The Yi Alliance made clothes in an assembly line. The use of cloth was more reasonable. The leftover materials were used to make other clothes. The cost was lower.
Bo Zhu stood there and watched. He watched the prosperity of the pier and the good life of the people of the Tang dynasty.
"We Tubo people should be like this too. If the Tang dynasty doesn't give it to us, we will take it ourselves."
Bo Zhu found a reason for the war. If they couldn't develop the technology, they would use force to solve it.
It was a very simple reason. There was no such thing as should or shouldn't.
He muttered, went to drink a bowl of soup that cost one copper coin, and strode towards Chang 'an.
After walking a few dozen steps, he turned around and went back to the place where he spent money to eat.
He almost forgot that Chang 'an didn't open at night. He couldn't go back.
He had to spend the night at the pier with his subordinates. There was a temporary place to stay at the pier.
After fifteen minutes, the moon rose later.
Bo Qiao pushed open the window of the room, lit the mosquito coil, and looked at the stars in the sky.
As he watched, his eyes widened.
The stars did not disappear, but there was something floating in the sky.
At first, he thought it was a firefly, but when it floated closer, he finally saw it clearly. It was a hot air balloon.
He only came back to his senses when the hot air balloon flew past him and headed towards Zhuangzi.
"They are training at night. The fire of the hot air balloon can be seen at night. I'll write back and tell them. "
Bo Xie felt that he had discovered a secret. Hot air balloons could be guarded against at night.
As long as they sent people to keep an eye on the sky, a group of hot air balloons would definitely have a group of light spots.
The hot air balloon fell back to Zhuangzi, but it deviated and fell into the paddy field instead of the public square.
The Winged Knights ran in and helped to carry them out. They stepped on a lot of rice sprouts.
Li Yi had just finished drawing a few types of boudoir clothes designed for the rich. This kind of clothes saved a lot of fabric.
When he heard the commotion outside, he came out to take a look.
"Dongzhu, the brothers were training at night. When the rope was thrown down, the people below didn't catch it and fell into the paddy field."
Fan Fan reported the situation to Li Yi.
"It's good that they didn't hit the house. Next time, don't fall in Zhuangzi. There's an open space outside."
Li Yi did not care about the paddy field. He was afraid that something would happen to them.
"Dongzhu, the hot air balloon will light up at night. We won't be able to launch a sneak attack." Fan Fan brought up another matter.
"By the time we see the light of the hot air balloon, it will be too late to prepare.
The enemy uses the light to guard against the hot air balloon. We can release Kongming lanterns, a few at a time.
If they want to prepare, then prepare. It's a good time to exhaust them. "
Li Yi did not think that the hot air could be defended against at night. At worst, they could increase the fire and fly higher.
Fan Fan laughed. He realized that Li Yi was right. They stared at the night sky and shouted when they saw light spots.
After getting used to it, they threw out a batch of Kongming lanterns.
The next day, when Li Chengqi left after breakfast, Li Yi handed him a stack of papers.
"Brother, newly designed … clothes for the rich. You can make them first and let the people in Pyong Kang Square try them out."
After saying that, Li Yi turned around and left at a very fast speed.
"Brother Yi, if it's easy to sell, the Yi Alliance will give you more money." Li Chengqi shouted. He did not know what was so urgent.
He stood there and flipped through the papers. After a few glances, he immediately looked around. Fortunately, there was no one around.
"Aiya, aiya, the clothes are good. The weather is hot, it's cool to wear them. Brother Yi is talented. Hahahaha ~ ~"
Li Chengqi said and quickly put away the papers. He rode on his horse and led his men to the city to find the Yi Alliance to make the clothes.
In the afternoon, a batch of clothes was sent to Pyong Kang Square. It was free of charge. Anyway, there was not much cloth and it did not cost much.
At night, Beiqu was the most lively. Zhongqu and Nanqu were also lively.
After a night, many people ran to Yi Meng's shop and said, "Give me one from A4 and two from A6."
The person in the shop nodded and went in to take a bag. He handed it over and said, "A total of three bags."
"Okay, okay, it's not expensive." The person said and asked his men to pay.
That day, a lot of these clothes were sold. The girls in Pyong Kang Square made their own clothes.
There were too many styles. Everyone was given different clothes and they had to compare with each other.
The 'money' they earned was the cloth. The new clothes were easy to make and it took less time.
"Brother Yi, your clothes …" Li Chengqi wanted to talk about the clothes during lunch on May 25th.
"What clothes? Brother, try this dried pot chicken. "Li Yi interrupted Li Chengqi.
"Oh, yes, it's delicious." Li Chengqi reacted and quickly lowered his head to eat.
After eating, Li Chengqi pulled Li Yi outside and said, "Brother Yi, I'll give you a thousand for the technical fee. Even if people don't buy it in the future, it's enough to make it once."
"Okay, I have more here. I'll get it later." Li Yi was happy when he heard the offer and went to get a stack of paper.
However, he did not leave in a hurry this time. He stood aside.
Li Chengqi opened it like a thief and then showed a regretful expression, "What clothes are these?"
"Clothes worn by ordinary people. The sleeves and trousers are not loose. They are tight-sleeved to save the cloth and at the same time, it's not cumbersome.
There are a total of six kinds. There are patches on the knees, but they are symmetrical and look new.
There are also patches on the elbows and shoulders.
If they are patched by themselves, some people will think it's shabby and are afraid of being laughed at.
The clothes we sell are of the same style. When they wear it, they can say that it's Yi Alliance's new clothes. "
Li Yi explained the reason. They all had the same idea to take care of the people.
Li Chengqi listened and carefully put away the stack of paper. He said seriously, "Brother Yi, these clothes are better than that."
"You can do the same for the shoes in the future. Add a patch on the parts that are easy to wear.
If it's worn out, you can patch it again and it'll still look the same.
Although it's a joke to say that it's not a joke to patch it up, people are still willing to choose the latter if they can wear it without feeling that it's patched up. "
Li Yi mentioned the shoes again. Nowadays, there were cloth shoes and leather boots. More people were wearing straw sandals.
