Chapter 2876: Frontline (34)
The female craftsmen were all busy.
During these three days, the female seamstresses had already changed the production specifications of the formal wear entirely to the monthly-use type.
The monthly-use type and the regular type differ only in durability, so the female soldiers of the Taoyuan Clan could actually wear them as backup.
The monthly-use type of formal wear was derived by cutting steps from Zhao Chi's original technique; it was not a new technique.
The craftsmen adapted quickly.
It's like a test paper with 100 questions — now 80 of them have been cut directly, and only 20 need to be made.
However, the accuracy rate of these 20 questions needs to be higher.
Of course, this was no problem.
Zhao Chi had already provided the standard answers for every step through grey text; they just had to follow them.
All that was needed was patience and care.
So the difficulty basically hadn't changed.
But the speed of producing formal wear had increased sixfold.
The output was very plentiful.
【500 Female Seamstresses 3-Day Output】
【Work Hours】60,000 hours
【Output】900,000 pieces
「Excellent Quality」495,000 pieces
「Good Quality」405,000 pieces
【Table End】
1,000 female seamstresses were sent out as teachers; otherwise the output could have been increased even more.
But serving as teachers was also something that had to be done; this aspect could not be skipped.
Although Zhao Chi had all the female seamstresses switch to producing monthly-use type formal wear, the quality was still made according to excellent quality standards.
If they didn't follow excellent quality and instead followed standard quality, the output could be increased by another fold.
But this time was different from last time.
Last time there was only Zhao Chi alone, so he definitely couldn't handle it all. Therefore, in order to increase output and let as many female soldiers as possible have formal wear, he had produced according to standard quality.
But now there were large numbers of other craftsmen who also wanted to join, yet those craftsmen were destined to be unable to improve too much in such a short time.
Yao Feng's requirement for them was also just to produce successfully, regardless of quality.
As a result, the other craftsmen were basically producing according to standard quality standards; rough and inferior pieces were bound to be produced in considerable numbers.
Excellent and good quality pieces would definitely be few.
Rough and inferior formal wear still provided much higher bonuses than ordinary formal wear, but a batch of excellent and good quality pieces was certainly still needed.
Since the other craftsmen lacked the ability, Zhao Chi could only do it himself.
Let the other craftsmen handle quantity, producing as much as possible in bulk to cover as many female soldiers as possible,
On Zhao Chi's side, produce as many excellent and good quality pieces as possible, providing them to important Gao Jie female soldiers to maximize combat power.
The division of labor was clear.
【Zhao Chi + Qi Yue 3-Day Output】
【Work Hours】1,680 hours
【Results】227,000 pieces
【Target】Monthly-use sleepwear
「Excellent Quality」220,000 pieces
「Good Quality」7,000 pieces
【Table End】
Each ordinary female seamstress's work hours over 3 days was 120 hours.
Zhao Chi's was 1,680 hours.
A gap of more than tenfold.
Of course, Qi Yue's constant patient companionship was also indispensable.
In these 3 days, Zhao Chi worked to produce 227,000 pieces of sleepwear, mostly excellent quality.
Adding the sleepwear produced by the female craftsmen over these 3 days, the total was 340,000 pieces, including 280,000 excellent quality and 60,000 good quality.
They had all been transported away by Gongsun Bai and the others.
If nothing unexpected happened, they should now be in the process of being distributed to the various master-level craftsmen.
Zhao Chi did not know how many master-level craftsmen Yao Feng could muster.
He estimated that having 150,000-200,000 would be about right.
After all, this muster was at the master-level craftsman standard, so it was destined not to be too many.
Unless Yao Feng could also demand people from the nobles...
This number of 150,000-200,000 craftsmen, besides the craftsmen under the lords, also included the craftsmen of the Greater World; Zhao Chi had included them all in his estimate.
So the 280,000 high-quality sleepwear given out this time was absolutely enough; there was even surplus.
But it didn't matter — giving a bit more let Yao Feng distribute freely.
The extras could also be given to the lords or heroes to wear instead of the craftsmen.
