Linen cloak
As long as your thinking doesn't slip, there are always more solutions than problems.
Ye Miaomiao watched the stove sales rise, feeling anxious rather than happy. She knew it was due to a shortage of clothes. Given the current temperature, stoves were already being used widely before the first major drop in temperature began.
As the saying goes, wear a down jacket before winter comes, what should you do when winter comes?
The warehouse was empty, and Ye Miaomiao's heart was empty too. She was thinking hard about this matter on the way to the weaving hut.
Suddenly, an item emerged from distant memories - a linen cloak for protecting against wind and snow!
The cloak is a basic item in the game "Civilization". Ye Miaomiao didn't think of it before, simply because the game is much simpler than reality. The technological production in the game develops rapidly, and no one would deliberately remember the fleeting cloak.
She quickened her pace and rushed to the weaving hut, and first asked everyone to make a linen cloak.
While waiting, Ye Miaomiao remembered her biggest goal after leaving the medical center - to increase clothing production!
The cloak was just a sudden inspiration, the most important thing is to upgrade the weaving hut.
The weaving hut is packed with people, and it seems that there is someone working at every workstation, and productivity is at full capacity.
But in fact, spinning and weaving are too slow to keep up with the speed of making clothes. Just like this unreasonable layout of all the things crowded together, the efficiency is too low.
Ye Miaomiao did not disturb the people who were making cloaks.
She opened the blueprint and added another room at the back of the hut - it was a pity that there couldn't be two identical buildings in a territory, otherwise Ye Miaomiao would have wanted to build another weaving hut!
This room is an annex to the weaving hut. It is smaller than the main room, but it is sufficient.
Ye Miaomiao moved the cotton-flossing machines, the yarn-spinning machines, and the cloth-weaving machines over here and arranged them in a row. She also bought a few identical machines and made two rows.
The newly built house had been programmed to automatically have a glass window. Bright light filtered in, and the place had taken on the shape of a factory.
So we just called it "textile factory".
The main house is now much emptier and will only be used to cut clothes from now on, so Ye Miaomiao changed the name to "Garment Factory".
Ye Miaomiao posted recruitment information in the group for the extra workstations. Just like the recruitment for the "snow-clearing team", spinning and weaving do not require very specialized skills, as long as you can do the work.
But this one requirement of "being able to work" has stopped many people. Many people beat their chests and stamp their feet, secretly hating themselves for not taking good care of their health and now missing a good opportunity to get a stable job.
It so happened that the house was completed and the cloak was made.
Several people went in to see the new house. Song Xiaoqing held the cloak and said happily, "Lord, this is really good for keeping out the cold!"
[Linen Cloak: Wards off cold and snow. Resists 10°C cold (only effective on snowy days).
Warm reminder: This item is not a heating tool. Once the temperature exceeds zero degrees Celsius, it will lose its effect.
Ye Miaomiao: “!” Doesn’t this perfectly fit the current situation?
The effects of basic items truly couldn't compare to those fancy extras! It was all her fault for completely forgetting about the linen cloak!
"I was able to make it so quickly because I passed by a shop this morning and saw they were selling a kind of straw cloak made from dried flat rattan strips. However, it's not as effective as linen and can only keep out temperatures as low as 6°C."
Song Xiaoqing said, "I still remember that the hidden buttons on the inside were very cleverly placed, and I did the same with this one."
Ye Miaomiao was surprised that someone had developed the cloak first. Could he also be an old player?
Song Xiaoqing went on to say, "He used to weave rattan baskets. What he made was called a straw raincoat. He originally used it to protect his clothes, but he unexpectedly discovered that it could also protect him from the cold."
I actually figured it out by myself.
Ye Miaomiao couldn't help but sigh, this is the wisdom of the working people!
After the renovation, the efficiency of the garment factory has been greatly improved. It used to be possible to start mass production of clothes on the sixth day, but now it can start on the fifth day.
As for the intervening days, the clothing factory will start selling cloaks soon. For those who don't have clothes to wear at the moment, the cloaks will be windproof and warm, and the hand warmer inside will provide warmth, which will definitely be a good thing.
Night fell quickly.
The release of the cloak caused quite a stir in the territory, mainly among the new residents.
Looking at the people queuing, there were almost fifty of them, all dressed in thin clothes, shivering while holding hand warmers, and many of them looked listless and sickly.
Many people then realized that most of the newcomers in the territory, who were not seen on weekdays, did not have thick clothes to keep warm!
It can be seen how lucky they are to be wearing warm clothes now!
Tightening my clothes, I carried wood, minerals, or seafood on my back and headed towards the task board. To achieve this luck, I had to keep working hard!
Two figures stumbled out of the dark night in the territory. They were dressed in rags and were shaking like sieves, causing the gatekeepers to frown.
The team members did not stop them. There were many newcomers in the territory these days, and these two people were not special.
After the usual interrogation and procedure, the two were allowed in.
"It's not that great..." one of them whispered.
Another person also scoffed and echoed.
Ye Miaomiao was only concerned with practical matters and did not do much to beautify the city. Therefore, apart from the advantages of being neat and tidy and with numerous buildings, the Hung Hung Hung territory was not very attractive.
The two had seen many territories, especially one filled with flowers, resembling a paradise on earth. So when they saw the nearby residential market and temporary shacks filled with the "atmosphere of life," they immediately made a judgment:
That's all.
"Let's take a walk first." said one person.
He took a step and headed in one direction, and happened to see an old man selling straw raincoats.
Looking at the thick clothes the old man was wearing, this man, dressed in rags, curled his lips and did not envy, but seemed to be indifferent.
"How much is this straw raincoat?" he asked.
He had dozens of points on him, which had been recorded when he entered the city. The security guard reminded him that these points were enough to buy a sweater, and told him to buy something quickly so he wouldn't get cold.
However, this person had no intention of buying thick clothes. He seemed to just be buying something warm to wear temporarily.
"10 points per piece." The old man replied.
A bit cheap, the man thought to himself. However, he pinched the thickness of the raincoat and thought: cheap goods are not good, but it is okay.
Just as he was about to pay for it, the old man stopped him again: "Are you new here? If you're new here, you should buy the territory weaving hut and resell it."
This person: “?” Are you still doing business?
"I won't take your money for nothing. This is all for your own good." Seeing his indignant expression, the old man explained, "The territory is only two points more expensive, but it provides an extra 4°C of protection. That's a special winter coat. Mine is... woven from straw, so it's more waterproof. Take a look?"
As he said this, he picked up his raincoat.
[Straw raincoat: windproof, rainproof and sunproof, slightly cold and snowproof. Resistant to cold and heat up to 6℃.
Tips: There are additional attribute bonuses for protection against special rain and sunlight. 】
"You see," the old man said with a certain amount of pride. His wares weren't the most practical right now, but good things always sold, and he wouldn't take advantage of someone in need. "Don't underestimate these 4°C. It could save your life in a critical moment! I won't cheat you. Go to the weaving hut and buy them."
