When it was so cold that one was numb, all other shortcomings hardly mattered anymore. The weather grew increasingly colder, and even ordinary winter clothing proved ineffective. If one could just get an extra piece of long-haired clothes to ward off the chill, it would at least be possible to walk outside.
In just a few days, Jing Shu's collection had grown to include a batch of longer, better-quality, and warmer long-haired coats. Distinct from those made by the Insect Cake Factory, the batch in her possession was specially manufactured by the Wucheng Town Government's clothing department.
Indeed, places that engaged in the long-term acquisition of clothing from the deceased and all sorts of second-hand fabric items—which were then dismantled, cleaned, and remade with new materials into necessities for the apocalypse, before being sold at market prices—were known in the apocalypse as ready-made clothing factories.
