"Master, how about letting me do this alone today?”Xu Yang couldn't help but want to move his hands to see if the Level 3 fitter skill worked.
"Are you confident?" Zhao Xiangdong hesitated. This was the standard of a third-level fitter.”
"It doesn't feel difficult. It should work." Xu Yang said confidently.
Seeing the confidence on Xu Yang's face, Zhao Xiangdong hesitated for a moment before giving way.""I'll watch from the side. Your hands should be steady, and the car should be thinner every time. This way, even if there are any mistakes, I can still make up for them.”
"Alright." Xu Yang nodded.
Xu Yang held the work piece, and the feeling of a third-level fitter surged into his heart. Because he knew what was going on, he wasn't nervous at all. His hands were also very stable because of the muscle memory given by the system.
After finishing the work piece in his hand step by step, Xu Yang handed it to Zhao Xiangdong for inspection.""Master, take a look at my processing.”
Zhao Xiangdong's face was filled with surprise. An expert would know how to do it. Zhao Xiangdong had seen the entire process clearly. Xu Yang's entire process was smooth and flawless. The processed parts would definitely be up to standard.
Xu Yang's move had won over many third-level fitters.
Many third-level fitters in the rolling mill could not do it to Xu Yang's level.
But the problem was that Xu Yang was still an apprentice. Before this, he had always been ordinary. Zhao Xiangdong was even worried that Xu Yang might not pass this year's skill assessment.
However, Xu Yang had just processed a piece of work that could only be completed by a Level 3 fitter in front of him.
"Xu Yang, when did you learn how to process a Level 3 locksmith's work?”Zhao Xiangdong asked.
"Aren't we preparing for the next locksmith skill assessment? He went to the Xinhua Bookstore to read some professional books on locksmiths and was greatly inspired. He did not expect that he could actually process Level 3 artifacts.”Xu Yang laid out the excuse he had prepared.
"That's right. Your master, I, was at a disadvantage because of my lack of education. I was stuck at the position of a fifth-grade fitter for a year or two and couldn't get in. It's up to your disciple in the future." Zhao Xiangdong was born in the old society. It was already good enough for a poor family to survive. How could he have the opportunity to study? After liberation, he learned some words at night school and could barely read the newspaper.
Xu Yang's generation had caught up with the good times. They could go to school since they were young. Although they only graduated from junior high school, they were much better than Zhao Xiangdong's generation. In this era, they could barely be considered as scholars.
Usually, Xu Yang would be Zhao Xiangdong's assistant. On this day, as long as Zhao Xiangdong was confident in processing the work, Xu Yang would be the one to handle it while Zhao Xiangdong would be his assistant.
In the beginning, Zhao Xiangdong kept explaining to Xu Yang what he should pay attention to. Later on, when he saw Xu Yang's technique getting more and more proficient, he handed over tools, moved processed parts, or sent unfinished rough blanks to Xu Yang.
With an old master helping him, Xu Yang's work was extremely comfortable.
The workshop director, Director Guo, came over. When he saw that it was Xu Yang who was operating, he immediately frowned."Master Zhao, you can't do this. This batch of artifacts was sent by a key unit. It must be of good quality and quantity. You can't let the apprentices operate it.”
"Chief Physician Guo, no matter who sent this work piece. I can't guarantee the quality and quantity? Do you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't care about the severity of the matter? I have my reasons for letting Xu Yang do it. Firstly, I'll watch from the side. If there's anything wrong, I'll immediately take over. Secondly, my disciple's craftsmanship is not inferior to a third-grade locksmith's old master. These are all the parts he processed. Please check them. If there's a single one that doesn't meet the standard, you'll deduct my salary for this month.”Zhao Xiangdong said calmly.
"You said it yourself." Director Guo said with a smile.
"I said it." Zhao Xiangdong did not hesitate.
Director Guo randomly picked a few work pieces. Just by looking at the appearance, these work pieces were indeed processed well. They were very exquisite and had a very smooth surface. They were not the rough ones that were processed by novices.
However, whether it was qualified or not still had to be measured with a ruler. Director Guo was also a first-line worker, and the standard of a fitter was at least Level 4 or Level 5. Without some professionalism, he could not suppress the workers. He picked up the ruler and measured it according to the given parameters. The result was not wrong at all.
Judging from the condition of the processed parts, not only were they qualified, but they were also high-quality products.
"How long has your disciple been in the factory?" Director Guo looked at Xu Yang.
Zhao Xiangdong chuckled. Obviously, he knew that Director Guo was very satisfied with Xu Yang's work. Naturally, he was a little proud. After all, a great teacher produces a great disciple.
"He's been in the factory for less than a year. Old Xu took over the job a month after the accident. At that time, Director Guo was the one who single-handedly handled it.”
"Yeah." Director Guo nodded. Your disciple is really thoughtful. No wonder he dared to let him do it."
"This is not my credit. He had read the fitter book himself and learned the technique from it. With me, it's just practicing the basics. With a solid foundation, he was able to understand the techniques that followed. Young people were cultured and learned quickly.”Zhao Xiangdong laughed so hard that his mouth almost cracked open.
"Look at how smug you are. If you ask me, this is talent and hard work. There are many apprentices in our factory. How many of them can be like Xu Yang, who has learned the skill of a third-grade fitter in less than a year? In the next skill assessment, let him apply for a level three locksmith. Just becoming a full-time employee was not enough for his talent and diligence.”Director Guo said.
"Alright, I'll get him to do more recently. He had a firm grasp of the skills of a third-level fitter.”Zhao Xiangdong quickly nodded.
"I can rest assured that you'll do your job. This young man can't be delayed." Chief Guo left after saying that.
"Did you hear that?" Zhao Xiangdong asked Xu Yang.
Xu Yang really didn't hear it. The workshop was so noisy that he couldn't hear it clearly if he didn't lean close to his ear and speak louder.
Especially when he was working on a work piece, the friction between the work piece and the machine tool was particularly ear-piercing. Xu Yang stuffed something into his ears, but it didn't work.
Xu Yang shook his head and asked,"What did the director say?"”
"I said you're not bad. You'll be a third-grade fitter for the next assessment.”Zhao Xiangdong said.
Xu Yang nodded. If he could, he was confident that he could pass even if he were to apply for a Level 8 fitter next time. But things couldn't be done like this. It was already very dazzling to pass the third-grade fitter assessment in a year. If he passed the eighth-grade fitter assessment all of a sudden, he would probably be captured and sliced into pieces.
There were only a few level-eight fitters in the rolling mill of a ten-thousand-person factory.
After working for a while, Zhao Xiangdong stopped,""Take a break. The workload today isn't too much. Leave it for the afternoon. Doing this job was very exhausting, so he had to take it easy.”
Zhao Xiangdong wasn't teaching Xu Yang how to be sly, but he was asking his disciple to be more relaxed. The labor intensity of a fitter was high. Working for a long time could easily damage the body.
Xu Yang did not insist. Fortunately, his body had been working in the workshop for a long time, so his body was still relatively strong. Otherwise, with his previous sub-healthy body, he wouldn't even be able to last ten minutes.
