Hearing that Yu Changle actually asked such an unreliable question at this time, Lao Ding couldn't help but laugh at himself. He was so ill that he rushed to the doctor. For a moment, he felt that this fat girl was not simple.
But he still said patiently: "All government canteens in the city wear uniform work clothes and dark blue labor protection suits."
Speaking of dark blue, I also thought of the pile of white cloth sent from Yangcheng, and I felt my temples twitching.
Yu Changle nodded: "Brother-in-law, please don't worry. Let someone send you a set of work clothes first. Believe me, the problem will be solved!"
Although she didn't know why Yu Changle wanted work clothes, the firmness and confidence in her words brought a glimmer of hope to Lao Ding and Liu Rumei.
Liu Rumei urged him: "What are you still waiting for? Why don't you hurry up and call someone to send you a set! If my sister says it can be solved, it will be solved!"
Twenty minutes later, Lao Ding's subordinates hurriedly delivered a set of canteen uniforms, and he was full of admiration when he left.
Even when the leader was sick and hospitalized, he never gave up his work. This selfless and hard-working spirit is really worth learning from all comrades.
This month's unit journal has a submission theme for "Strive forward on a new journey and build a new era of meritorious service"!
Yu Changle carefully studied the cutting and routing of the entire set of work clothes, then asked Lao Ding the total number of fabrics arriving this time, picked up a pen and began to count carefully.
The only sound in the ward was the rustle of pencils scratching rapidly on paper...
"Snapped!"
After checking the last calculation, Yu Changle put the pencil in his hand on the table, raised his head and asked Lao Ding:
"Brother-in-law, how many sets of work clothes do the city's canteens need in total?"
As a leader in charge, Lao Ding is familiar with this number: "There are more than 560 canteen employees in the city. Excluding retired and maternity leave employees, there are 432 on the job."
"That means at least four hundred and thirty-two sets of canteen uniforms are needed, right?"
"right!"
Listening to Yu Changle's calm tone, Old Ding's heart became inexplicably excited. Could it be that she had really figured out a way?
"Brother-in-law, I've calculated it three times, and I can make four hundred and thirty-two sets of work clothes with the existing fabrics!"
"real?!"
"Very good!"
Liu Rumei cheered happily. Just now she was so nervous that she even breathed softly, for fear of affecting Yu Changle's calculations.
Old Ding sat up from the hospital bed excitedly and took the white paper filled with numbers written by Yu Changle. A number was circled on it - five hundred and eighteen!
"This...this number means that five hundred and eighteen sets can be made from these fabrics?" He couldn't believe it.
Yu Changle nodded affirmatively: "Yes, but it must be according to my production requirements."
In order to facilitate understanding, Yu Changle picked up the pen and explained to Lao Ding:
"First of all, I have carefully looked at the old version of work clothes, and many of the wiring and hemming are unreasonable, so in order to save fabrics to the maximum extent, I will rearrange the materials, draw patterns, and make specific designs for cutting and cutting."
"Secondly, the specifications and structure of the work clothes, including the shape features and pleats of collars, sleeves, pockets and other parts, must be made strictly in accordance with unified requirements."
"According to the template I re-drawn, prepare a complete set of samples in advance, including main materials, spare parts, fabrics, linings, and cardboard. The specifications and quantities must be complete and accurate."
"Work clothes made in accordance with unified requirements in this way, with complete components, compact arrangement, correct silk strands, reasonable splicing, and reduced gaps, will definitely achieve the goal."
"In addition, I have improved the parts of the work clothes that were too cumbersome and made them more convenient to operate and more beautiful in appearance."
Yu Changle talked for a long time, and his brush never stopped, directly sketching a set of novel style work clothes on the paper.
Liu Rumei knew that Yu Changle's tailoring skills were good, but she didn't expect that he would be so good at it. She was so surprised that she was speechless.
Although Lao Ding was also shocked, he was more calm in the end:
"Your method is good, but I don't know the effect of this improved work clothes, and the color of the fabric..."
The fabric issue has become a big mistake. If we rashly change the style of work clothes in the city's canteens, if we make the same mistake again and again, even the king of heaven will not be able to save him!
Yu Changle's bright eyes were full of confidence: "Give me half a day, and I will make you a set of work clothes. You can decide whether this method is feasible after you see the real thing."
Liu Rumei nodded hurriedly: "Sister, thank you, sister. I believe you can make better work clothes than the original ones."
After listening to Yu Changle's design concept and reading her drawings, Lao Ding's collapsed confidence seemed to be strengthened little by little:
"Okay! Sister! Thank you for your hard work! If this method really works, you will have saved my brother twice!"
"What brother?! Changle is my sister. It's better for you to open your mouth and grab her. If I call you brother, I won't be my sister-in-law! No! You are an outsider, and Changle is my biological sister!"
Lao Ding was so excited that he couldn't calm down when Liu Rumei said something jealous from Leng Buding's side, instantly dispelling the slightly heavy atmosphere, and the three of them laughed in unison.
By the time I finished my work at the hospital, it was already dark.
The bus back to the compound has stopped running long ago. Without a letter of introduction these days, I can't even stay in the guest house.
Liu Rumei made the decision and forced Yu Changle to stay at her house.
The reason is that she is the only one in her house tonight anyway, so she can be her companion.
Yu Changle really had nowhere to go, and she didn't have the guts to walk back to the compound in the dark at night, so she accepted Liu Rumei's invitation.
Another advantage is that Liu Rumei has a sewing machine at home, so she can start work early tomorrow morning, saving her from having to run around.
——
On the playground with dim street lights, a group of figures were running around the playground in an orderly manner.
Everyone's clothes were soaked with sweat, but their steps were still uniform, shouting loud slogans as they ran.
Deng Youwei stood on the edge of the playground and shouted to the team: "Lao Meng! Lao Meng!"
Meng Jiu'an, who was running for the leader, glanced in his direction when he heard the sound, and did not stop running, even when he ran past him.
Knowing how serious Meng Jiuan was in training, Deng Youwei had no choice but to run and follow him, saying as he ran:
"Isn't the training session over? You should also give your soldiers a break."
Meng Jiu'an, who had already run seven kilometers, replied without changing his expression: "The training is over, and our demands on ourselves will not end. Soldiers must maintain combat effectiveness at all times!"
These words made Deng Youwei, who had been sitting in the office since the afternoon training session, a little embarrassed. He frowned and continued:
"Proper rest and training are equally important. If you are not tired, aren't your soldiers tired either?!"
A rare confident smile appeared on Meng Jiuan's face. Instead of answering him, he shouted loudly without looking back:
"Tell Staff Deng, are you tired?"
"Not tired!"
"I'm not good at martial arts——"
"Not a qualified soldier!"
"Sweat more on the training ground——"
"For the sake of less bloodshed on the battlefield!"
...
Loud slogans sounded uniformly on the training ground, floating in the night sky for a long time.
After running the last three kilometers of daily training, Meng Jiuan stopped and the entire team disbanded.
Then he asked: "What do you want from me?"
