Scheller was greatly surprised. Although the set of clothing was made from ordinary materials, it was clearly meticulously designed and tailored, worth at least 3 to 5 florins. That's roughly around 10 francs.
For such a set of clothing, it's almost unbelievable that the French Government is asking for it to be given to workers for free.
Could it be that their King is truly sent by Jesus to save the French people?
Of course, Joseph didn't intend to "save the world."
When he initially included the clause about providing workwear in the "Labor Security and Safety Act," he was entirely focused on supporting the textile industry in Lyon.
Yes, all factories offering free workwear can receive government subsidies, 1 franc and 3 sous per set, but it must be custom-made in French textile factories.
Subsequently, the textile factories in Lyon focused their efforts on competing for this massive contract, designing seriously and trying to keep costs as low as possible.
