Chapter 618: Challenge Level 8 Artifact Rare Item

Chapter 618: Challenging the Rare Item of Level Artifact
The next day, go to work.

Li Kailang went to see Director Yang to discuss something early in the morning.

Yesterday I promised Yu Xingmei that I would borrow the factory's lathe to practice, so the sooner I asked, the sooner I could get it done.

"Okay, I agree. I'll give you a license. As long as it's for learning, anything is fine."

As expected, Director Yang agreed to this.

Of course, while talking, he did not forget to hint at Li Kailang to take the opportunity to keep the person.

"Director Yang, don't worry. I will do my best to ensure that they all come to our factory."

"Okay! It's good that you can say it. Whether it succeeds or not depends on the situation. I won't force it." Director Yang smiled and waved his hand.

Soon, the certificate was issued and it was directly valid until the end of the final exam tomorrow.

Of course, after all, they were not from the steel mill, so if they wanted to come in, they had to be led by Li Kailang.

The rules are still the same as last time.

"Okay, Director Yang, I have another mission, so I'll go back and do it first."

After getting the certificate, Li Kailang naturally planned to say goodbye and leave.

"Oh, no hurry."

Li Kailang turned his head and looked at Director Yang.

"Xiao Li, I wonder how your locksmith skills are doing?"

Li Kailang looked at the panel.

【Fitter (Level 6)】

"It's okay, what's wrong? Is there anything the workshop can help me with?"

"Not really." Director Yang smiled and waved his hand.

"It's like this. There are a few extra level 8 workpieces in the workshop. They are just sitting there. Why don't you take them back and try to make some level 8 workpieces as a practice?"

"Oh this? That's not good. My skills are not even at level eight. If I don't do it well, it will be a waste."

It is a normal person to have self-awareness that a level 6 worker is asked to do a level 8 workpiece.

"It's okay. Just think of it as training for you to gain experience. The better your skills are, the better it will be for our steel mill."

Technicians and engineers belong to two different directions. Engineers are more involved in design and research and development, while technicians are more involved in production and manufacturing.

There is no definitive answer as to which is lighter and which is heavier.

Li Kailang was destined to work in a steel mill. It was enough for a college student to earn this much. If he could become a senior fitter, it would be even better. He would be a compound talent.

Even during the heyday of the steel mill, there were few engineers who were good at these two areas.

"Okay, it's settled. The transport team happens to have nothing to do at the end of the month, so just go ahead and do it."

"Don't feel any burden. It doesn't matter if it's scrapped. Just do your best."

As he spoke, Director Yang also wrote out the order and handed it out.
"You can go to the warehouse and pull it yourself. Okay, go ahead and do your work."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade the other party, and also wanting to give it a try, Li Kailang nodded, took the order, went to the warehouse and took the parts to his study room.

A level eight workpiece is not a single piece, but a set of parts that includes many processes.

Li Kailang was carrying spare parts back to the transport team and was immediately seen by the masters.

"Hey, Xiao Li, what are you doing? Why are you bringing back so many spare parts?"

"Wow, these artifacts are incredible, they seem to be high-end artifacts. How did you get them, Xiao Li?"

"Look at Xiao Li, he can even make advanced workpieces. Look at you, one by one, can you compare with Master Li?"

Some masters do not take the opportunity to teach their apprentices a lesson.

All the apprentices looked at Li Kailang, and even though they were unwilling to accept it, they had to obey him.

You can't win if you can't win, people are just amazing.

After being hit so many times by their masters, the apprentices have become much more relaxed.

Seeing everyone gathering around, Li Kailang was not in a hurry to go back, letting everyone see enough.

It just so happens that he can also think about how to make this eighth-level workpiece.

Director Yang did not put any pressure on him right from the start, and asked him to complete the relatively simple and easy tasks among the level eight tasks.

"It's not like there's no hope at all. It may not be possible to do everything well, but I still have confidence in doing a few well."

Of course, I think so in my mind, but I will know the details only after I do it.

"Xiao Li, are you sure?" Master Zhang Jinwu came over and asked.

"You can try it and see if it works, okay?"

Zhang Jinwu nodded: "Okay, as long as you have a plan in mind."

He didn't want to put pressure on Li Kailang.

The masters looked at the parts and then at the drawings they had brought with them.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. You'd better say that the fitter is amazing. I can't even understand this blueprint. It makes me dizzy."

A master covered his head with his hands, feeling stars in his eyes and the world was spinning.

"Come on, you're just as dizzy when you read. This blueprint is not simple. If I were to do it, I would only be able to do the first one. This one is easier."

"Come on, stop bragging. This looks simple, but it's actually not simple at all."

The masters were chattering away.

"Okay, everyone, stop causing trouble for Xiao Li and just do what you should do." said a master.

Hearing this, everyone made way for Li Kailang and cheered him on.

"Xiao Li, try harder!"

"Don't be stressed. It's okay if you don't do well."

"Thank you." Li Kailang nodded with a smile, then returned to his study room with a pile of parts.

"It's not easy to make this eighth-level workpiece. If you make a mistake, the whole set of parts will be scrapped."

"You have to pay attention to this, do it quickly."

Shaking his head, Li Kailang put aside all unnecessary thoughts and began to concentrate on his work.

Zhang Jinwu looked at the apprentices. As he had done last year, he let them go into the apprentice room to study. But now he decided not to let them in to avoid disturbing Li Kailang.

"Keep your voices down, and don't go in today. Go and see if there is any work to be done."

All the apprentices left the apprentice room.

Li Kailang first studied the eighth-level drawings for more than half an hour, and only then did he start to work after he had a clear idea of ​​what he was doing.

Start with the simplest workpiece first, get a feel for it, and feel the difference between the eighth-level workpiece and other workpieces.

After working for a whole morning, Li Kailang successfully produced a number of qualified finished products, which greatly boosted his confidence.

"Just do it in one go and get it done."

He took some food from the ring, ate it hastily to fill his stomach, and then continued working.

Outside the house, Zhang Jinwu looked at the door that had not been opened all morning. After thinking for a while, he decided not to knock.

"At your age, skipping a meal won't harm your health, so it's better not to get in the way."

"Crack!"

"Not good!" Li Kailang was startled and saw a corner of the workpiece in his hand was broken off.

"Come on, we can't make it now, with just this set of parts."

"Ah~"

Li Kailang couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the workpiece that was destroyed due to a mistake.

"I worked hard for half a day, but because of one mistake, all the work for the whole day was wasted."

Li Kailang sat on the ground in disappointment, looking at the broken parts and thinking about how to fix them.

"Oh, how could I forget, I still have a way."

Li Kailang got up with a bang. If it was broken, he could just fix it and start over. It just so happened that the thing in his hand could be repaired.

With this thought in mind, Li Kailang entered the planting space and found the time-reversal machine.

"I almost forgot about this thing. It just so happens that I didn't have a chance this month, and I made a few mistakes."

After spending some gold, a restored part appeared in my hand.

"Okay, okay!" Li Kailang was full of confidence and picked up the workpiece to continue working.

Even with the time-travel machine, Li Kailang broke it several times. Fortunately, he could start over, and after the experience, he would not make the same mistake again the second time.

By using up all the times of this month, Li Kailang finally completed the production of the eighth-level workpiece.

“Hahaha, it’s done.”

Looking at the eighth-level workpieces formed in front of him, Li Kailang couldn't help laughing, and finally polished them.

Taking out the caliper for precise measurement, Li Kailang couldn't suppress his smile.

"Good good!"

"It takes a lot of time to make this level 8 workpiece."

It took most of the day just to complete a set of level eight workpieces, and there were only one or two hours left before the end of get off work.

It is hard to imagine how those senior workers can produce several sets of level 8 workpieces in a day.

"Xiao Li, what's wrong? Is there an accident?"

Outside the house, Zhang Jinwu rushed over upon hearing the noise and asked worriedly.

squeak~
"Master, I'm fine, I did it!" Li Kailang couldn't help but share his joy.

I didn't expect that a level 6 worker like him could actually make an level 8 workpiece, even though he had many opportunities to start over.

"Great, great, our transport team has finally produced a master craftsman who can make level 8 workpieces!"

"I never thought that I, Zhang Jinwu, would have such a day. Not only am I a college student, but I can also make level 8 workpieces. This, this, this."

Zhang Jinwu was not much less excited than Li Kailang.

An apprentice who can make eighth-level workpieces is no worse than a college student. You have to know that they are driver masters, and being able to make eighth-level workpieces is considered cross-border!
"What! Xiao Li really made it? Let me see."

Looking at the finished level 8 workpiece, the masters looked at Zhang Jinwu with envy.

"We are both disciples, but why is his disciple so powerful and mine so bad? How can we make sense of this?"

"Oh, I was wrong, I was wrong. I thought Xiao Li was a good kid from the beginning, but I was too busy with my own things and that's why I didn't accept him as my apprentice."

"If I had accepted Xiao Li at the beginning, wouldn't I be mine?" a master said in annoyance.

"Come on, stop bragging. You are nothing. You regret it now. I regret that Xiao Li is not my son."

A group of people were chattering, their eyes fixed on the freshly-made eighth-level workpieces, the more they looked at them, the more curious they became.

It was the first time for everyone to see an eighth-level workpiece at such a close distance, and they even had the opportunity to touch it. Usually they just glanced at it from a distance.

"Alright, alright, just take a look. Don't delay my apprentice's work. Xiao Li, take it to Director Yang for a look."

"Hurry up before getting off work."

Li Kailang nodded, took the eighth-level workpiece and went to find Director Yang.

"Dong dong!"

"Enter!"

"Director Yang, I have accomplished my mission. I have succeeded. Take a look."

Li Kailang placed the eighth-level workpiece directly on the table.

"It worked?! It really worked?!" Director Yang said in disbelief. He had never thought that Li Kailang could succeed and had already prepared for failure.

"It's done. Take a look."

Director Yang looked left and right at the eighth-level workpiece. Indeed, from the marks on it, he could tell that the workpiece was immaturely made and there was room for improvement in many places to make it better.

"Good, good, good! I didn't expect you would really succeed." Director Yang said with a hearty laugh.

If you succeed in one, you won’t have to worry about not being able to succeed in the second or third.

Being able to do it means that Li Kailang's skills have reached level eight.

Director Yang couldn't wait to ask, "Xiao Li, you can do it, doesn't that mean your skills have reached level eight?"

Li Kailang knew how this workpiece was made, shook his head and poured a basin of cold water on it.

"Director Yang, I'm still a long way from it. It was a coincidence that I succeeded. I almost failed many times during the process."

"He can't be considered an eighth-level worker. At most, he can only be a seventh-level worker, or even lower."

These words really poured cold water on Director Yang. He thought that there would be an eighth-level worker in the steel rolling mill, a young eighth-level worker.

Veteran eighth-level workers such as Yi Zhonghai also noticed problems in these two jobs.

Although the work is good, there is still a gap between me and the previous eighth-level worker.

"Okay? What a pity, but it's great that you were able to do it. I don't know how many level 7 workers you defeated."

"Keep working hard and strive to become an eighth-level worker as soon as possible, so that you can contribute more to our steel mill."

"By the way, there are level eight artifacts in the warehouse. You might as well take them back and practice with them."

Hearing this, Li Kailang waved his hand and said, "Forget it, Director Yang. I have already put a lot of effort into this. I really don't have the energy to do it anymore."

"Let's talk about it next month. I don't think this month will work."

Seeing Li Kailang's tired eyes, Director Yang stopped forcing him: "Okay, take a good rest during this time."

"You gave me a surprise all of a sudden. It would be unreasonable for me not to reward you with something."

Immediately, Director Yang took something out of the cabinet, his eyes reluctant to part with it.

"Here you go. This thing is rare. I didn't even have time to draw it."

"Thank you, Director."

Li Kailang didn't hesitate and took it away.

What Director Yang gave was actually a pack of cigarettes and a specially supplied red panda.

This cigarette is not only expensive, but also not circulated in the market. It is only supplied to government officials.

Zhonghua cigarettes can still be bought on the market, but Red Panda cigarettes are specially supplied cigarettes. Without a certain status, you can’t get them even if you want.

"It just so happens that I haven't smoked it yet. Thank you, Director Yang."

Li Kailang said happily. Seeing Director Yang's reluctant eyes, he did not choose to eat alone.

He opened the cigarette packs and took out four or five packs to give to Director Yang.

"Hey, hey, hey, kid, I told you I'd give it to you. How can you give it to me? Aren't you asking me to break my promise?"

Director Yang said this but he took quick action to accept all of it.

Looking at Li Kailang, he felt even more satisfied.

It’s not just about having abilities, the key is that he has a high EQ and is worthy of his training.

"Director Yang, I've given you the workpiece. I'll be leaving now."

Director Yang nodded and said, "Okay, you can go back. I'll take this workpiece to the workshop master for inspection later."

"If you pass the test, you will be destined to become an eighth-level worker in the future. By then, I will be able to see the youngest eighth-level worker. Please don't let me down."

"Don't worry, Director Yang." Li Kailang smiled, waved his hand and left the office.

Secretary Wan Shen watched Li Kailang leave, then looked at the delighted Director Yang, and found time to tell this matter to others.

Having an extra senior worker in the factory is both a good thing and a bad thing.

It is a good thing for the steel mill, but for some people, an additional senior worker may mean a change.

"Good, good, good!" Director Yang put away the Panda cigarettes and cheered as he looked at the level 8 workpiece.

Immediately took him to the workshop for inspection.

"Engineer Yi, take a look at this workpiece. Is it up to standard?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at this simplest workpiece and could roughly see the problem with it just by taking a glance.

Although his visual judgment was correct, Yi Zhonghai still took out the caliper and measured rigorously.

"No problem, it's a qualified workpiece."

"That's good, that's good." Director Yang said with a smile.

Yi Zhonghai was very curious, as the technique used to make this work piece was unfamiliar to him. Compared with all the senior workers in the steel rolling mill, none of them was similar.

"Director Yang, I'm curious about something. Who made this workpiece? Why can't I tell?"

Director Yang smiled mysteriously: "Guess."

"I can't guess." Yi Zhonghai shook his head.

"Hahaha! You'll know later." Director Yang put his hands behind his back and left with a smile.
