Chapter 817

Li Ji asked where he asked whether it was expensive or not, and Li Shimin was a little surprised when he heard him say it was hot.

"Hot?" Li Shimin asked as he looked at Li Ji.

"Well, it's a bit. When I was wearing it just now, I didn't think it was. But after moving for a while, I felt it was hot. These clothes were good and they were very warm in their clothes!" Li Ji nodded and said.

"Is it OK to have a set worth 23 cents?" Li Shimin asked as he looked at Li Ji.

"It's not so cheap, of course, but is it true? Boping, did you make it again?" Li Ji said, then turned his head to look at Qin Huaidao next to him and asked.

"Well, I made it, but my father was wrong just now. I forgot to say that it costs 23 cents and add a set of quilts, which is for bed at night. If you are marching or resting in the wild, the soldiers can also put quilts on them. However, this thing is just afraid of water. Once it absorbs water, it will be difficult to do!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said to Li Ji and the others.

"Good thing, is it so cheap? Your Majesty, that division's troops don't cost much, but only three or four hundred stale coins, our military headquarters still has it. By the way, what is this thing made?" Li Ji said happily, and then wanted to know what it was made.

"Cotton!" Qin Huaidao immediately bowed and replied.

"Cotton? What are the ones planted in your fief?" Li Ji looked at Qin Huaidao in shock and asked.

"Yes, I am going to donate 300,000 sets to the army. Even if the money is gone, there is not much money. I just hope that our troops can also carry out training in winter because our enemies are mainly from the north. If they attack in winter, our troops are not trained enough and there are not enough cold-proof supplies, it will be troublesome." Qin Huaidao stood there and said to Li Ji.

"Okay, okay, great, your Majesty, this matter should be fast, I am still worried. If we drag the war to winter next year in Goryeo, what should we do then? We have figured out the map of Goryeo now. There are many mountains and the weather there is very cold. After all, it is not on the plain. Our soldiers can quickly discover those enemies. If they come over at night, we will suffer a great loss. If we have cold-proof supplies, we will not be afraid!" Li Ji said to Li Shimin and the others excitedly.

"Okay, okay, Boping, 300,000 units, how long will it take?" Li Shimin asked Qin Huaidao.

"We have cotton, but there are not so many workers. I was thinking, will the Ministry of War gather a group of people to do this, or, our Ministry of Works gathers people to do this, and this horseshoe?" Qin Huaidao said as he looked at the two of them.

"Do. Do it a lot! Boping, this time, you have made great contributions. My father really didn't expect that you could make so many good things in one day after going to the military camp. If you had known, you would have asked you to go to the capital. The military headquarters should have discussed it carefully with Boping, and do these things as quickly as possible, and then send them to the troops below!" Li Shimin said happily. With this, it can be improved by improving the combat effectiveness of the army!

"Yes, your Majesty, don't worry, we will be as soon as possible!" Li Ji said happily, while Li Shimin went to the three soldiers and asked them if they were cold.

"It's not cold, it's very comfortable. Anyway, it's much more comfortable than wearing our own clothes. This thing is so warm. If our troops wear this, why are you afraid of cold?" One of them said happily.

"Okay, okay, I'll be able to put it on soon!" Li Shimin said happily, then took Qin Huaidao and the others to Chengtian Palace. Li Ji also changed into his own clothes and handed them over to the Ministry of War, so that the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Works could hurry up, and Qin Huaidao also handed the drawings to Li Shimin.

"Father, I will hand over the drawings of the horseshoe to the Ministry of War. Then the Ministry of War will hand over to our Ministry of Works to do it, how about?" Qin Huaidao asked them.

"Well, sit down and say, sit down!" Li Shimin happily pulled Qin Huaidao to sit down. He was happy today. He could never dream of solving the problem like this. He had never thought about solving the cold-proof supplies before. According to their ideas, as long as he did not freeze to death in the tent, that would be fine.

But now that Qin Huaidao's cotton has come out, the troops can continue to improve their combat effectiveness, and the horseshoe has come out, which has also significantly improved the combat effectiveness of the cavalry.

"Boping, what do you want? By the way, it's not easy to convince Xian'er to donate it, right?" Li Shimin asked Qin Huaidao with a smile.

"I didn't sleep all night last night, so did Xian'er. Xian'er knew she would donate it, but she just thought about it and felt sorry for her. She lost so much money. When she thought of the unhappy place, she kicked me. I didn't even close my eyes that night, but my father, Xian'er agreed, just felt a little distressed!" Qin Huaidao said to Li Shimin with a smile.

"This child, haha, I'm still sensible, and it's normal for him to feel sorry for him. However, the father will not take it for nothing. How can he take the money for his daughter in vain? If he gave it a little to his father, the father would take it. So much, the father would not dare to take it. So, their cost price is 23 cents, so you can add 10 cents as the purchase price! How good?" Li Shimin said to Li Ji with a smile.

"Okay, no problem. Our Ministry of War can still take out this little money. The key is to solve the big problem of our Ministry of War. With these cold-proof materials, I believe that our troops will not be our opponents when facing the harassment of the north in the future." Li Ji nodded affirmatively and said.

"Cotton, horseshoe, your kid, what will your father give you a little more? I'll give you the land?" Li Shimin asked Qin Huaidao with a smile.

"No, there is anything to give you a reward for this. A little thing is not worth mentioning!" Qin Huaidao immediately waved his hand and said.

"This is not a little thing, Boping, the soldiers on the army knew that they were made by you, and I wonder how happy they were. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been there myself today." Li Ji immediately said to Qin Huaidao seriously.

"Yes, but it's not that serious. Father, do you remember that in the first half of the year, those people impeached me and said that I didn't grow food. My son said that these cotton is more important than food now, but they can be used as cold-proof materials. My son thought to equip the army with these cotton coats and quilts. Now if you want to reward me, how dare you accept it? My father, there is no need to reward me. As for the same sentence, you just need to take me to war!" Qin Huaidao explained to Li Shimin with a smile.

"Well, their group of people are short-sighted, what do they know? They know what you are doing for? They know the interests in front of them!" Li Shimin heard it and said a little dissatisfied. Li Shimin knew about the impeachment in the first half of the year, and Qin Huaidao was fined.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say. I think the affairs of the Ministry of Works need to be held accountable!" At this time, Li Ji sat there and started talking.

"Check responsibility?" Li Shimin looked at Li Ji with some ignorance and asked.

"Of course, Boping could solve the problem that 120,000 yuan was negotiated by them, but it would cost 600,000 yuan to solve the problem. How could this happen? Those officials were impeached if they had nothing to do, and those officials of the Ministry of Works, to be fair, they really had no idleness. They could be said to be the money-making department of the court, they were all dedicated to making money for the court.

This time, if they were impeached, they all had a temper. There were so many ministers there before, and it was not convenient for me to say that I often went to various places to inspect military affairs. The people in the north respected the officials of the Ministry of Works. They were really respectful. They all thanked the officials of the Ministry of Works, and thanked you, Your Majesty.

Why? It is because they did practical things for the people, and the civil officials in the court knew that they were jealous. They stared at this and impeached that, just say Boping. How much impeached did you say he was impeached? This is also Boping. If it were someone else, he would have stopped doing it long ago. With Boping's ability, can he still lack that little salary at home?" Li Ji sat there, looking at Li Shimin and started talking.

"Father, my sons have nothing else, just those impeached officials, so they should warn you. They are like ruining the major affairs of the court!" Qin Huaidao also bowed his hand and said to Li Shimin.

"If you don't say that, I have forgotten this matter. I impeached and impeached hundreds of thousands of coins, which is enough to support the officials in the court!" Li Shimin said unhappily at this moment.

"No matter what, you still need to explain the reputation of the Ministry of Works. How can you do this?" Li Ji also spoke from the side. Li Shimin nodded: "I will consider this matter and let them do it. It's not bad! Boping, you must hurry up on cotton matters. If you have any good things in the future, you will send them to the palace. My father will see. By the way, everything will be dropped off by the time the quilt and coat will be taken away. The Third Division will be the first to be taken away. Only after the Third Division is equipped can the other troops be continued. This is made by Boping, and this advantage must be given!"

"Yes, then I'll go to my cloth workshop now and weigh the cotton. At that time, the Ministry of War will hurry up and get it done, and our Ministry of Works will also help!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said,

In the next few days, Qin Huaidao was busy with this matter, and many women in Chang'an City were asked to work, and they were asked to sew those cotton coats and trousers. The quilts were still handed over to Qin Huaidao's workshop. However, the quilts used by soldiers were not that big, and they were a little smaller, so they were quick to make.
