Master of Thermodynamics
Chapter 123
For the Fredericks, all their experiences in the sanctuary were so novel.
Just entering the warehouse and stepping on the magic "mud turned stone" made them very excited.
Although we already know that it is called cement concrete, it doesn''t prevent them from squatting down secretly, feeling and pressing with their hands, then stepping on it with their feet, and finally sighing with satisfaction in their hearts.
How tough!
What impressed the Fredericks most was that there were so many rules in the shelter.
From the first moment of entering the shelter, the family was forced to separate, and Betty, the youngest daughter with a cold, was immediately transferred to the quarantine area, another warehouse, for medical treatment.
However, the man in charge of the shelter is very kind. Considering that Betty is too young, his wife Vera is specially allowed to take care of Betty in the quarantine area.
As for poor Bella, because men and women had to be separated, the couple had to ask an acquaintance to take care of her. Thinking of this, Frederick felt a little pain in his heart, hoping that she would not be too lonely by herself.
Well, these gentlemen are very strange. They like to be called "civil servants". If anyone calls them master, they will not be very happy.
From Frederick''s point of view, they worked in the high government office, served for the Lord, and were the first-class and respectable people in the territory. Although calling "master" was suspected of flattering, it was not too much.
When Frederick entered a large room with a strange smell, he was immediately asked to take a bath and change clothes.
Hey, these civil servants really pay attention to their words. They even call bathing bathing. Although they are not used to it, it sounds strange.
But the bath, no, made Frederick quite uncomfortable.
First of all, taking off his clothes in front of a gentleman made him feel a little embarrassed, especially when the gentleman was still staring at him seriously, which made him not know where to put his hands and feet.
Although the bath water in the bucket is not cold and slightly warm, it seems that something has been added to it. It looks turbid and has a bad smell. When you put your hand into the water, it still has a slight burning pain.
But for the insistence of the inspector, Frederick would not have jumped into the barrel.
Originally, Frederick intended to wash his body, and immediately jumped out, but the gentleman asked him to use the wooden brush hanging on the wall of the barrel to brush his body, even his hair.
This makes him feel like a cow or a horse rather than a person.
, here is the official of the civil service. He has the final say. He has to obey it.
After bathing, Frederick enters another room full of new clothes. A civil servant holds a piece of cloth and makes a gesture at his chest and waist. Then he hands Frederick a set of clothes, including underpants, trousers and top, for him to try on now. If it doesn''t fit, he can change them.
Frederick quickly waved his hand and refused. Is this gentleman going to sell him his clothes?
I''m kidding. He''s a poor man with a tight life. He''s just had enough to eat recently. He can''t afford new clothes.
However, to Frederick''s great surprise, the gentleman told him that, as a lord, he had special care for the victims. Clothes were free relief materials, so he didn''t have to return them when he left the shelter.
There is such a good thing as giving away clothes!
Lord, you are the most merciful Master in the world!
The last time Frederick bought new clothes was two years ago. He was reluctant to throw them when they were worn out. They were all sewed and mended before he went on wearing them. Moreover, he was not the only one. Who was not the common people in Odin island?
In addition, he smacked his tongue. There were piles of clothes in every corner of the room, and he couldn''t count how many sets there were.
Is the Lord going to give each of the victims a set of clothes?
God, Lord''s generosity can make a blind man open his eyes in shock.
At the same time, Frederick felt a twinge of joy in his heart. If everyone got one suit, wouldn''t it mean that the four members of his family could get four suits?
Well, it''s really worth coming to the shelter this time!
The only pity is that this kind of mass-produced clothes often don''t fit very well, but it doesn''t matter. You can let Vera change it after you go home!
This gentleman also had an additional request, that is, Frederick''s own clothes were not allowed to be taken into the shelter for the time being, and someone would clean them and return them to him.
Frederick happily put the clothes in the designated position, and gave them free cleaning, but the fool didn''t want to!
Although he was a little worried that the person in charge of washing might accidentally tear the clothes, after all, these clothes have been worn for many years, and many parts of the linen are not strong enough to tear with a little more force, Frederick didn''t care at the thought of free new clothes.
For the sake of four sets of new clothes, wash them if they are broken!With a happy mood, Frederick began to try on his new clothes.
He was surprised to find that the clothes selected by Mr. civil servant actually fit very well!
How is that possible?
Frederick suddenly remembered that before choosing clothes, the gentleman seemed to have measured his figure with a cloth strip. Did civil servants know that he was coming to the shelter, so they measured his figure quietly and prepared his clothes in advance?
What surprised him even more was that the line of the clothes was so neat that there was no difference in the spacing between the feet in each position.
How could the tailor achieve this degree? Isn''t that amazing?
The civil servant on one side seemed to see the surprise on Frederick''s face. He said faintly: "these clothes are made in batches by using the sewing machine according to the" clothing size standard "formulated by the Department of industry. It''s enough to choose the corresponding size according to different body types."
"Except for a few people, the size standard applies to most people..."
When Frederick heard this, he laughed at himself and said, "why do I talk to you about this Forget it. If you don''t need to change your clothes, go to the shelter quickly. "
This enigmatic remark raised an indescribable awe in Frederick''s heart. With a formal bow, he turned and walked out of the room.
What the civil servant said about "standard clothing size" naturally comes from Renault''s "creativity". As usual, he provides concepts and gives a simple explanation, and then the consul is responsible for the implementation.
When customizing the work clothes for more than 50 civil servants in the administrative department, the girls adopted this standard size, which saved a lot of time and energy.
The cloth used to make the overalls came from the legacy of the former Lord.
In a certain robbery, the pirates robbed a merchant ship full of goods, on which there was a large quantity of linen.
It was not easy to sell this kind of bulk goods. The two pirate leaders were not angry about the price reduction, so they simply took it back to their hometown and made it cheaper.
After making a batch of work clothes with these fabrics, the administrative department will make all the remaining fabrics into ready-made clothes and intend to sell them to Lingmin at a low price.
Why not sell cloth directly?
The reason is very simple. Lord, on a whim one day, even the magic sewing machine was developed. The thread is not only dense and neat, but also extremely efficient.
As a result, just a few hundred sets were made, and the storm came, so with a stroke of the pen, the consul lady turned these clothes into relief materials.
After walking through a long corridor, Frederick entered the warehouse, the shelter.
Just a look at the unusually open interior space, he couldn''t help opening his mouth.
With that poor vocabulary in his head, Frederick did not know how to describe it. At the moment, there was only one word in his mind: big!
It''s worthy of being Lord. It''s so powerful to build a house. There are only four columns in such a huge house!
Yes, even with Frederick''s shallow knowledge, he knows how difficult it is to support the same huge roof with only four columns in this huge warehouse with a usable area of 1100 square meters and a height of nearly 8 meters!
Frederick had a long pause at the door before he was awakened by a voice.
"Hey, that new guy, what''s Leng doing there? Come here and help me... "
