Super Craftsman Chapter 13

Chapter 13 - Learning (1)

Guo Tailai lost his composure too much. His parents were going to become laid-off workers soon, and all the money in the house would be given to him as living expenses. He was still thinking about going out to complete his job and earn some money, but hearing that he had 50,000 yuan, he was so happy he almost went crazy.

50,000, his school fees for the past five years were only 20,000, and he seemed to be able to save 30,000. Now, his family could relax, and his parents would no longer have to worry about how they would live after they got off work. They could even go out for fun.

Even the t.i.tanium powder he needed, he could probably buy some through the relationships and grind them himself. Was it really to lose weight that he worked so hard to learn the basic locksmith skills? Wasn't it all just to grind the t.i.tanium powder?

Micro-sized t.i.tanium powder, if counted by the number of sieve eyes, would at least have ten thousand sightings. Most of the ordinary powder was around 300 mesh, which was more than enough for Guo Tailai to use.

Hahahaha, now that I'm rich, this is great! He could do anything he wanted!

Elder Liu had seen a lot of things, so he didn't pay much attention to the fatty who was about to go crazy. Instead, he started to ponder about the set of exoskeleton seat s that Fatty was wearing.

It wasn't just the workers like Elder Liu who often stood up to work. There were also many industry members, department store employees, operating room staff, catering service staff, traffic police, teachers, and so on. Many of them had long-term standing requirements.

Standing for a long time can easily cause varicose veins of lower extremity, joint inflammation or plantar fasciitis and other problems. If each of these workers had a seat like this, wouldn't it benefit many people?

Guo Tailai's design was simple. Old Liu, who rarely went to university, could understand it at a glance. The available s.p.a.ce was very wide. According to Elder Liu's thoughts, this should be sent down as labour insurance.

Unfortunately, this was not something that a retired worker like Elder Liu could decide. The country was very poor, and Elder Liu came from that era, so he was very clear on this point. However, even if they could not have everyone, they could still protect the important positions and even export their earnings. The workers' unions abroad should be very interested in this.

"Fatty, you're really something!" Elder Liu couldn't understand why such a simple design couldn't be thought of by everyone in the country before, so he could only give Guo Tailai a thumbs up.

This Fatty Guo was truly worthy of being a student of the Waterwood University. He had a set of skills when working, and his design was not the kind of person who did not need to worry about things at all.

Now that he was rich, he could naturally think about more things. Guo Tai Lai began to ponder. No matter what, he had to send twenty thousand back to his parents, leaving thirty thousand behind, to see if he could buy a t.i.tanium powder. However, he had to start with t.i.tanium alloy.

"Does the old man know where we can find t.i.tanium alloy or t.i.tanium powder?" Guo Tailai finally revealed his fox tail and asked Elder Liu this question.

The self-replication of the nan.o.bot required a micron level t.i.tanium powder. The development of the t.i.tanium industry in the country had only just started, so Guo Tailai definitely did not have any means to get one.

There might be some in some universities' laboratories, and there might even be some in Waterwood University's national key laboratory. Guo Tai Lai did not directly enter the national key laboratory to inquire about relationships, but Elder Liu had the ability to do so.

"I've heard of t.i.tanium alloy. Let me help you ask." Elder Liu had never personally processed a t.i.tanium alloy before, but he had heard that the strength of the alloy was of a low density. It perfectly fit Fatty's needs. Seeing that the fatty was looking at each other, especially when the food he made was right, Elder Liu decided to help him ask.

He was also rich, and with Elder Liu's help, he asked about the t.i.tanium Alloy t.i.tanium powder, finally coming here today was the right decision. After he finished his work, Guo Tailai prepared to leave.

However, Elder Liu did not come to find him just to give him money. More importantly, he wanted to pa.s.s on his own experience. Since Fatty had this talent, then he would teach him as much as he could. Perhaps in the future, Fatty would become the youngest level 8 locksmith.

Guo Tailai couldn't wait to learn more. Previously, he could only make 5 microns of machining precision enough for him to earn 50 thousand yuan a day. Who would complain about such a lucrative craftsmanship?

Besides, only a fool would not learn the teachings of a legendary national treasure, a rank 9 locksmith! Without a second word, Guo Tailai followed Elder Liu's instructions and started to learn from them.

As the proverb goes, three years for a fine mechanic and ten years for a rotten locksmith, it is not a matter of time for a locksmith to become a professional.

Yes, Fatty was an exception. Elder Liu couldn't help sighing as he looked at Guo Tailai's skillful movements.

Elder Liu was a level eight locksmith before he retired. This was also the highest level of a locksmith's specialty. The reason why he was called a level 9 worker was because the country would grant him an increase in status after his retirement. It wasn't a real level 9 job.

A locksmith isn't just about the work of cutting the clamps. As a locksmith, he has the plan of being versatile. This was even more so for the level eight locksmith.

The level eight locksmith must design, draw, and row the process. They must master the design and drawing of the machinery industry; they must master the mechanical properties of all kinds of metal materials; they must master the cutting properties and make improvements and repairs of all kinds of cutting tools; they must have a certain standard or even higher for forging, casting, turning, milling, planing, grinding, boring, riveting, welding, sheet metal and other kinds of work! In terms of basic techniques, one could reach a realm that ordinary people could not even imagine.

Elder Liu was proficient in all of this, but what he was truly proficient at was a.s.sembling. All sorts of fine installation and debugging, dynamic balancing, and even some design optimizations were his strong points.

Elder Liu wished that these valuable experiences could be stuffed into Guo Tailai's mind in the shortest possible time.

Guo Tailai also tried his best. As long as he could master it, he would be able to master it immediately. After practicing for a while, most of the processing techniques and accuracy could actually catch up to the peak of Old Liu's cultivation technique and even surpa.s.s it.

Elder Liu looked at Guo Tailai as if he was looking at a monster. This fatty was most likely born to be the best locksmith. He was too monstrous.

No one knew where Elder Liu used to work, but he had done almost everything except for the latest materials. He had processed almost all the materials in the past, making him a total genius.

One old and one young, they were like b.a.s.t.a.r.ds looking at a mung bean. One of them taught seriously while the other studied diligently, completely forgetting the pa.s.sing of time.

Of course, this was also related to the fact that Guo Tai was wearing a exoskeleton seat. Sitting under Elder Liu was also the most comfortable way to train, otherwise, one's feet would be too painful to stand on after such a long time.

"Lordmaster, the night shift is about to end." A worker on the outside reminded the two people inside the Workroom.

The two of them looked up and found that it was already 10 o'clock at night.
