Scholars in the courtyard

In the third workshop, everyone recovered from the shock and continued registration.

Then, Director Wang and Deputy Director Xu were seen approaching. The two stood aside and watched, but did not speak.

When the two of them arrived on the road, they received the news that there were only three people registered for the eighth-level assessment this time.

In addition to Yang Xiaotao, there is also a seventh-level fitter and a seventh-level welder.

Both of them were assessed step by step, unlike Yang Xiaotao who skipped three levels.

When the two arrived, everyone in the workshop knew who they were for. Many people glanced at Yang Xiaotao, wanting to see his reaction.

Unexpectedly, Yang Xiaotao didn't react at all and waited quietly.

After a while, Director Yang and Deputy Director Chen also came in, followed by Secretary Liu and Guo Liang from the assessment team.

Several people gathered together and whispered.

Liu Huaimin was a little undecided.

In the past, the standards for the normal assessment at Level 8 were high enough. This time the standard for the skip-level assessment will be even higher, but it is difficult to determine how high it will be.

It's not like level six or level seven, which only requires high-difficulty artifacts.

But which one is easy to become a level 8 artifact?

Several people discussed Yang Xiaotao's assessment.

Xu Yuanshan was also a little undecided. Yang Xiaotao was a rising star he was optimistic about, but he didn't expect this to happen.

Even Wang Guodong frowned, hoping that the assessment would not be too simple and would make people gossip.

At the same time, I hope that Yang Xiaotao will pass the assessment, so that there will be two eighth-level fitters in the third workshop!

This is definitely the first time a scorpion poops in the entire steel rolling mill!

While several people were discussing, at nine o'clock, the assessment officially began.

For the first-level assessment and the second-level assessment, regardless of whether they are cross-level or sequential, everyone goes to the workstation to start the exam.

While the first-level assessment was in progress, many people came from outside the third workshop.

As Yi Zhonghai walked up to the crowd, several eighth-level fitters from other workshops came over, and finally Liu Daming, an eighth-level fitter from the third workshop, also came.

A few old masters stopped there, and several factory directors also came over and talked to each other.

Finally, Secretary Liu finalized Yang Xiaotao's assessment plan.

Immediately, Yang Xiaotao was called over.

Yang Xiaotao walked up and greeted everyone.

"Factory director, secretary, and all the masters!"

Yang Youning nodded, Xu Yuanshan smiled on his face, and so did Chen Gong.

Yang Xiaotao scanned the crowd and only glanced at Yi Zhonghai's face before looking at him again.

Yi Zhonghai noticed it and felt unhappy. He didn't look good and didn't want to speak.

"Young man, you have courage!"

Secretary Liu took one look at him and felt that this child was energetic and had the fighting spirit of a worker. Thinking of Xu Yuanshan's previous introduction, he felt even more favorable to the descendants of these worker martyrs.

It's just that this good impression is only personal. When it comes to work, he always deals with business matters and never talks about personal relationships.

Yang Xiaotao smiled when he heard the words of praise.

"I just want to try it!"

There is no need to be arrogant or impetuous, and there is no need to be sullen and humble.

This is the confidence and pride that belongs to the workers of this era.

In this regard, not only Liu Huaimin, but also the factory director and the old fitter beside him all nodded.

This is the spirit that workers should have.

"Good boy, I don't just say try it lightly."

"If you don't have diamonds, you won't do the porcelain work. If you don't have twos and threes, you won't dare to go to Liangshan!"

"If you don't have this confidence, you wouldn't dare to try!"

The speaker was Liu Daming. The old man was in good spirits, with small but bright eyes. There were a few wrinkles on his thin cheeks. He opened his mouth to speak with a very loud voice.

"Liu Gong!"

Yang Xiaotao shouted, he respected this old man from the bottom of his heart.

Because this is a man of real ability.

It is not comparable to Yi Zhonghai.

"Okay, let's get to the point!"

Secretary Liu looked at the scene. The first-level assessment was about to end, but everyone had their own work station, so the assessment would not be delayed.

"Comrade Yang Xiaotao, since you have skipped the assessment, the difficulty of this assessment will be appropriately increased!"

After Liu Huaimin finished speaking, Wang Fa and others in the distance were worried and didn't know how to increase the number of Fa.

"I know!"

Yang Xiaotao was prepared.

He is not afraid.

"Well, originally, the assessment of the eighth-level fitter only required one to complete an eighth-level workpiece within one hour. If you pass the test, you can pass."

"Considering your situation, we have reached an agreement."

"This assessment is divided into two parts. One part is carried out according to the original plan."

"In the other part, the master who is present will give a question at random. If the master is satisfied, you will be qualified."

After Liu Huaimin finished speaking, there was silence all around.

The first one is pretty normal, I have seen this every year.

But the second one is harder to say.

Who asked the question? What's the problem? How to be considered satisfied? There are too many uncertainties.

if……

In the crowd, everyone who heard the news looked at the old masters in the factory.

Liu Haizhong saw Yi Zhonghai at a glance.

Whatever was in his mind, his eyes were filled with amusement.

Xu Damao glanced back and forth between Yi Zhonghai and Yang Xiaotao, thinking about how to light a fire when he returned to the courtyard.

After Yang Xiaotao heard this, he suddenly looked at Yi Zhonghai in the crowd.

At this time, Yi Zhonghai also thought of something and looked up at Yang Xiaotao with a smile.

This smile seemed a bit cruel to Yang Xiaotao, but it was so sure.

Just when Yi Zhonghai was about to volunteer, and just when Liu Haizhong showed the same smile in the crowd, Liu Daming suddenly laughed in front of the crowd.

"Okay, okay, this is an interesting way!"

“Not only must the person being tested be capable, but the person being tested must also have weight!”

"Otherwise, if you ask a question that you can't even solve, it won't be a slap in your face!"

Liu Daming said, and several old masters behind him laughed.

Yi Zhonghai's smile was particularly far-fetched.

He won't wade into this muddy water!

After Liu Daming finished speaking, he looked back at his old brothers and said, "I won't see you anymore!"

"Don't say that I'm protecting this kid. Even though I work in a workshop, everyone knows how the old man behaves."

"How about leaving this assessment to me?"

After Liu Daming finished speaking, the people behind him immediately became unhappy.

"Old Liu, you can still hold the file steady. Don't lose face!"

"No, let me try this kid's weight!"

Several old masters were laughing and joking, not paying attention to the tense atmosphere in the workshop.

Even Factory Manager Yang and the others were standing aside. When it came to this work, they had the most say.

"Go on one side, go on the other. Since I, Old Liu, dare to take this job, I must have two brushes. Why are you making such a fuss?"

Liu Yifei had an upright temper and did not give face to a few people, causing everyone to laugh again.

"Okay, then leave it to Liu Gong!"

Regardless of his status, Liu Huaimin was still a junior in front of Liu Yifei, how could he refuse?

Besides, this is a national player registered with the above.

Seeing this, Liu Daming smiled at Yang Xiaotao.

"Boy, are you ready?"

"As always, please!"

"Haha, okay! We don't have to wait any longer! Look, I'll give you the questions!"

Liu Daming said, lifting his legs and walking towards the workshop.

Along the way, those who participated in the assessment kept their heads down and worked hard, not daring to be distracted.

The people behind him also tried their best to slow down and not disturb him.

Everyone followed Liu Daming to the back row, where a steel rolling mill marked by history lay quietly. No one was operating it at the moment, and it seemed very quiet.

Many people fell into memories when they saw this rolling mill.

Yang Xiaotao also remembered that this old machine was one of the earliest machines in the steel rolling mill and was bought from Germany before liberation.

I have to say that their technology is really unparalleled, and with their rigorous style, the machines they make are all perfectly matched, not bad at all.

After so many years, this steel rolling mill has been making contributions to the construction of the motherland, and compared to the "support" of Big Brother Mao Xiong, the failure rate is almost zero.

Liu Daming looked at this machine, and scenes from the past emerged one after another, as if reminiscing and feeling sentimental.

Everyone waited quietly behind them, no one bothered them.

"When people get old, they always think about the past."

Liu Daming said, walking to the side of the machine, stroking the machine with his gray-yellow palms, like a lover.

"When this machine came, something happened."

"When we inspected it, we discovered that a bolt was missing."

"At that time, everyone was eager to start work. There was still a war ahead, and the support from behind could not be cut off."

"The old factory director started working under pressure, and the result was."

"This machine is like a cow. It won't run if a bolt is missing. We have no choice but to fix it!"

Liu Daming explained the past events, and everyone understood what happened back then.

Bada

Liu Daming pulled out a dark bolt with his hands, "At that time, the workshop director took the lead and made it according to the drawings. All the senior workers in the factory were on board, but there was just a little bit missing!"

Liu Daming used work clothes to clean the bolts, revealing the tattoos on them.

"Later, I made it!"

"Big Trail, 15.05."

"Zhongjing, 14.82."

Liu Daming raised the nut. Under the sun, many of the teeth on it had been smoothed.

"well!"

"After all, it's not the original match. Our hands were almost broken."

"What was it written on the original survey map?"

Liu Daming turned around and saw Secretary Liu standing aside with a stern look on his face.

"Large diameter, 15.056! Medium diameter, 14.823."

Everyone gasped.

Five digits, you heard me right, the drawing requires five digits.

Due to the domestic measuring instruments at that time, they could not be accurate to the last digit, so they could only achieve the second to last digit.

Just like rounding in mathematics, the more precise you want to get, the lower the number you have to get.

Of course, appointments cannot be revised continuously, so the final number is extremely critical.

Liu Daming took the bolt and handed it to Yang Xiaotao.

"Next, it's up to you!"
