After a while, Xu Yang stopped.
"Xu Yang, why did you stop? Is there a problem with the processing?" Yi Zhonghai was overjoyed.
"The processing is complete. Go and take a test to see what level it is.”Xu Yang said.
"Really?" Director Guo did not believe it either. Even a Level 8 fitter would not be able to process this Level 7 work piece so quickly! In his impression, Yi Zhonghai's skills were not bad. He could also process many irregular parts, but the speed was very slow. Sometimes, he would need a whole day to process a piece.
This level seven artifact wasn't the most complicated, but if Yi Zhonghai were to process it, it would definitely take half a day.
"Xu Yang took less than an hour to process it, right?”Director Guo asked. Chief Guo looked at the silver-white Plum Blossom watch on his wrist. However, he didn't think too much about it just now and didn't remember the time at all.
"Chief Physician Guo, I know the time. It's only been half an hour.”Guo Dabiao was also wearing a watch.
In this day and age, looking at a watch wasn't necessarily about looking at the time. It might be mainly about asking others to look at the watch.
"Sigh." Director Guo sighed. He could tell that Xu Yang's basic skills were very solid, but he was not very reliable. If he could keep his cool, he would have been able to process a piece of work that he was confident of. Even if it was not a level six piece of work, but a level three piece of work, it would have given him a surprise.
An eighteen-year-old third-grade fitter was also a genius!
"Xu Yang's level six locksmith standard is definitely not a problem. Today, I saw him working on a level six work piece alone. Unfortunately, he insisted on choosing a level seven artifact." Guo Dapie sighed as well.
"Yes, I am. An eighteen-year-old level-six fitter! I feel like I've lived for decades. I'm only a third-level fitter now."
"You're just a useless piece of cake. How many times have I taught you? Every time you practice, there's no problem, but when it's time for the assessment, you'll screw up!”Master Feng, a Level 6 Fitter, scolded the man.
Most of the people in the workshop felt sorry for Xu Yang. A fitter relied on his skills to make a living. Whoever had the ability would be able to obtain everyone's respect. Even if Xu Yang was a little arrogant, his ability was real. Everyone felt sorry for him. If Xu Yang had not chosen a level seven artifact, perhaps a miracle would have been created.
The only person who was confident about Xu Yang was Zhao Xiangdong.
Zhao Xiangdong might not be confident that Xu Yang could produce a Level 7 Artifact. However, after Xu Yang completed the work piece, he was relieved. He could clearly see that Xu Yang was very confident in the parts he processed. With Xu Yang's current technical ability, it was impossible for him not to know whether the parts he processed were successful or failed. Since he was so confident, it meant that he had definitely succeeded this time.
As expected, Yi Zhonghai, who was repeatedly measuring with a calliper, was depressed.
He had tested it several times and couldn't find any problems. Not only did he not find any problems. What shocked him was that this artifact was actually perfect and flawless. It was a superior product!
It was the first time an eighteen-year-old apprentice had worked on a level-7 work piece. It was still shocking even though it was not the most difficult level-7 work piece.
"Master Yi! Did Xu Yang's work piece pass the standard? Why didn't you tell me the results after testing for so long?”Guo Dapie asked loudly.
Yi Zhonghai's face darkened as he sighed.
Chief Physician Guo thought that the processing had failed, but he still forced a smile."Xiao Xu, don't be discouraged. Your basic skills are still very solid. It's fine to take it step by step.”
Yi Zhonghai was a little embarrassed.”
"Passed?" Chief Guo had an incredulous expression on his face.'Why are you sighing if you're qualified?'
"Just passing?" Xu Yang looked at Yi Zhonghai with a smile.
"It's not bad that you're qualified. It's already very rare for you to be able to process a qualified grade-7 artifact at such a young age. I agree that you can apply for the sixth-grade locksmith directly in the next assessment. The skills of a level seven fitter were still stable. When you can process excellent parts, then consider taking the seventh-grade bench work exam. With your talent, you'll probably be a level seven fitter next time.”Chief Physician Guo was already very satisfied. To be able to produce a qualified Level 7 artifact in half an hour, give me a dozen of such geniuses!
Zhao Xiangdong did not trust Yi Zhonghai.""Master Yi, let me test it.”
Yi Zhonghai naturally could not let Zhao Xiangdong re-test it, as he would lose his prestige in the workshop in the future. He forced a smile and said,""Look at how anxious you are. I only said that it passed, but I didn't say the level of this artifact. It was a superior product! Xu Yang is only 18 years old, but he is already a Level Seven fitter. The next Level Eight fitter in the workshop will definitely be Xu Yang.”
"It's a superior grade?" Zhao Xiangdong was also very surprised. He did not expect Xu Yang to be able to process a Level 7 work piece into a superior product.
"It's indeed perfect. There's almost no deviation!”Yi Zhonghai said. Even if Yi Zhonghai were to work on it himself, he wouldn't be able to produce a grade-7 artifact of this level. It was him who often produced defective products every time he processed a grade-7 artifact.
"That's great!" Chief Physician Guo laughed out loud. That was great! At such a young age, he was already a seventh-grade fitter. Xu Yang, give it a try. This time, you'll be taking the seventh-grade locksmith test, and the next time, you'll be taking the eighth-grade locksmith test! Master Yi is right. The next Level 8 fitter in our workshop is none other than you!”
The workers in the workshop congratulated Xu Yang.
Level 7 was already a ceiling that many people could not touch.
Moreover, once a Level 7 locksmith passed the assessment, his salary would immediately soar to more than 80! There would also be bonuses for processing special parts from key units.
Sometimes, they would even invite other units to go on business trips.
If Xu Yang managed to pass the seventh-grade fitter examination this year, he would definitely be able to get the advanced grade at the end of the year.
Unless the head of the rolling mill had water in his head, such an outstanding young man would not be used as a model.
He might even be sent to the Ministry. The outstanding young man would definitely not be able to escape.
"You guys, don't think that Xu Yang is just a gift from God." Zhao Xiangdong said loudly. Since he was a few years old, his father had often brought him to the workshop to play with all kinds of artifacts. Besides, you're all looking for fun when you get home after work. As for Xu Yang, he bought a book on bench work in the bookstore and learned the technique himself. To be honest, Xu Yang taught me my Level 6 locksmith skills.”
Zhao Xiangdong was doing this for Xu Yang's own good. Instead of making him a genius, it was better to make him a talented but hardworking young man.
"I see. All these years, our workshop has lacked Xu Yang's research spirit. All these years, the senior fitter in the workshop had barely changed. This can't go on! The seniors of Workshop 1 built Workshop 1 into an advanced workshop of the rolling mill. Don't lose to us. In the future, we will have a skill competition! In the future, those bicycle tickets, industrial tickets, and watch tickets from our workshop will be used as prizes for the martial arts competition!”Director Guo said.
