Chapter 63 Destroyed Mold

The vicious Youyou read it right, Wang Ge was indeed smiling. She had made nineteen pieces of art and was already a mid-level craftsman. In the future, she could not only work in the craftsmanship set up by the government, but also if she was hired by other craftsmen, she would be able to make every piece of art.

With one piece of equipment, you can earn twice as much money as an inferior craftsman. How can you not be happy?

Now that she was thinking about the various rules of the Craftsman Examination, how could she dare to complain? In fact, the more harsh the examination system, the fairer it would be to craftsmen who were from poor backgrounds, accustomed to hardship and tiredness. She fully understood the profound meaning of the Craftsmanship Examination, which gave candidates

It’s up to you to challenge the limits of craftsmanship at the right time and place, and whether you have the perseverance to do so.

If you hate the rules, you will quit halfway, or you will admit that your skills are inferior to others.

After thinking through it, Wang Ge continued to make the twentieth mold.

This mold is a combination of bamboo "calculation chips". When she first saw it, she thought someone had piled the materials on the bed of utensils. There were a hundred vertical round bamboo sticks, each six inches long and two cents wide. This mold

It is easy to make a single piece, but it takes time in quantity. If one piece is wrong, the work will be in vain.

The material provided by the chip model was three bamboo tubes, and she first sawed each bamboo tube in half. The length of the six tubes was more than seven inches.

Keep chopping and scraping the strips into bamboo strips. Still discarding the yellow strips, use the rounded edge of the scraper to polish the green strips. Don't rush when making imitations. You need to unify the cross-sectional diameters first before you can unify the lengths.

While Wang Ge was busy, he was curious about how the craftsman checked the calculation chips. He couldn't measure them one by one, right?

Bang! The examinee in front of her fell to his side and fell unconscious, making an embarrassing noise like diarrhea.

Wang Ge and others who were close could hear everything clearly.

Two wanderers came over, put the unconscious girl on the side of the wheelbarrow, and pushed her away. The smell lingered all the way.

Not long after, someone in the phalanx of female craftsmen and children cried. Soon, this feeling of sadness and fear expanded like ripples, and sobs came one after another. Who dares to say that the embarrassment of the girl just now will not be their turn?

What would they do if such a shameful thing was reported back to their hometown? Will they still dare to see people then? Which one is more important, reputation or craftsmanship level?

The scene of female craftsmen and children crying together happens every year, and examiners, craftsmen, and tourists are all used to it. The boys are indeed born to be stronger and rougher than the girls.

Examiner Shi stood in front and said loudly: "Are you crying?! Your face is covered with a scarf, what are you afraid of? If you don't take it off after you leave, who knows which one is which? Furthermore, the real shame is those who are not good at their skills.

Those who are cowards! They are cowards who can’t endure even a day and a night and don’t dare to endure it! When you leave the examination room, if someone laughs at you, tell those cowards that the dirty clothes you are wearing are the cocoon clothes of a butterfly! If you don’t break out of the cocoon,

How to become a butterfly!"

A young candidate stood up excitedly and shouted to the girls: "My lord is right! If you don't break out of the cocoon, how can you become a butterfly!"

Examiner Shi flicked his sleeves: "Humph, make a loud noise and throw him out!"

As it gets late, the moods of the female craftsmen and children have calmed down.

Dark clouds gathered, and with the thunder, the candidates who were extremely thirsty raised their heads, hoping that the rain would fall soon.

The craftsman from Lishi finally took a step ahead of the examiner and rushed over panting.

The examiner took the bamboo slips in confusion and unfolded...

Examiner He saw the uneasy expression on the other person's face and his brows were getting tighter, so he came closer to take a look.

Ah! After Examiner He read the content clearly, he felt a big stone hit his chest! There are actually two types of admission methods for first-class craftsmen:

First, there are more than fifty pieces of well-known utensils;

Second, after the candidates arrive at Lishi, they only need to pass the examiner's test!

It turns out that after the county government decides on the examiner for the craftsmanship examination, the supervisor will give the examiner a sealed document. The seal can only be opened when the candidates arrive at Lishi. Every year, in each county, for each major category of craftsmanship

The contents of the examination documents will not be the same. If no examinee comes and the seal is opened, the examiner will condemn the whole family.

This year's question is for the examiner to make a mold out of bamboo and let the candidates imitate it. If the candidate has completed making the nine utensils before coming to Lishi, he will be recorded as a first-class craftsman; if he has not finished making the nine utensils, he will only be recorded as an intermediate craftsman.

work.

The most important thing is that as long as the first-class craftsman is produced, all future craftsmanship examinations will no longer require carp stones. If you want to win the title of first-class craftsman, you can only make more than fifty items!

Examiner Gu was about to cry but had no tears, and his mouth was half-open: "Brother He, I... I was just shy... just halfway... If I had known there was such a rule..." He thumped his chest hard twice.

, No, I will die from suffocation.

Examiner Liu: "What's the matter? You two are so rude? Hmm..." He took the bamboo slip, and his nostrils got bigger and bigger, the right lip of his mouth twitched upwards, and the left corner of his mouth twitched downwards. If Examiner Shi hadn't taken the bamboo slip away,

Examiner Liu will definitely be furious.

Fu Chi, Fu Chi... Examiner Shi saw the whole story and his eyes went dark. Fortunately, Examiner Liu supported him. The two elderly examiners supported each other. After sitting down, he said: "The first-class craftsmen are in the clothes."

It is an honor for you and me in the county examination room. The most urgent task is to greet the examiner and ask whether the matter should be reported to County Magistrate Huan now? In addition, the carp stone will no longer be used in the future, how to dispose of it? A note from a first-class craftsman

Is the selection method the same as that of other craftsmen? Candidate Wang Ge continue to make tools, or should she be allowed to leave early?"

Burst!

There was a loud explosion of thunder.

Examiner Shi asked the examiner to explain to the craftsman, and asked the candidates to hide under the utensil shed to make the utensils in advance. When the examiner came back, he was followed by the examiner, Master Yao, who had just arrived.

Obviously, the consultant examiner has told the examiner all the discussions just now.

Craftsman Yao was quite wet from the rain. He took off his bamboo hat and said, "I have sent people to the county this morning. The things you mentioned have to wait for Magistrate Huan to explain. Candidate Wang Ge... I just read

She is very conscientious in making the instrument and is obviously able to persist. This candidate has a perseverance and is unusual, so we should not interfere with her."

There was another thunder and the rain became heavier.

The examiners did not expect that when they decided not to interfere with Wang Ge, she had already been forced to leave.

Just now, when the craftsman spoke, the candidates hurriedly packed up their utensils and tools. Wang Ge put all the molds and materials into the dustpan and divided them up after a while. Unexpectedly, she was suddenly bumped from behind. It was the female craftsman behind.

Unable to stand firm, Wang Ge fell to the ground, and the female craftsman fell right on Wang Ge's dustpan.

In an instant, the molds and bamboo sticks were knocked over, and they were all stained by rain and mud.

The female craftsman's hand was also injured and bleeding, and she was frightened: "I was the one who collided, I didn't mean to..."

What's the use of apologizing! Wang Ge crawled over and couldn't accept this change. Although this set of molds was time-consuming, she would definitely be able to make it. It was all ruined and dirty!

"There is no reason to make noise, leave the venue quickly!" The nearest tourist picked up the female craftsman.

Wang Ge recognized this person at a glance. He was the despicable husband who tried to make her leave yesterday! How could it be such a coincidence? Could it be...

Just when she guessed, she heard the female craftsman struggling and crying to explain: "It's my fault, it's my failure to stand firm, but I really am not..."

Wang Ge angrily broke a bamboo stick. There was no chance for a confrontation. The little lady yelled, which was equivalent to taking the blame.

She was so unwilling! Her persistence was meaningless. Wang Ge was soaked by the rain, so he picked up all the bamboo sticks and put them back into the dustpan. He carried them to the craftsman without giving up, but the craftsman only said to her ruthlessly: "

Destroy the model and leave immediately!"

Calculator: An ancient calculation tool, usually made of bamboo. There are records of 271 pieces as one "grip".
