The office of the three groups of electricians only has three large tables and four chairs. If they eat all of them, they will probably die that night.
Of course Jiang Baizhou agreed. This was just a trivial little amusement for him.
"Very good, I've made the bet."
Xiaowen, a new electrician apprentice who came in the second half of the year, trembled with fear and clung close to Master Wu. This place was so scary, but fortunately he didn't have to eat tables and chairs.
Master Wu felt the need to comfort the apprentices in Group 3, whispering, "Don't worry, I'm watching over you. If Group 3 can produce two Level 3 electricians this time, our group will be famous. Xiaowen, learn from me and get your electrician license soon."
"Yes, Master Wu, I will do my best." Since Master Wu has spoken, it really shouldn't be a big deal, Xiao Wen thought to himself.
Today's electrician assessment has begun.
It should be said that the whole month of January was almost entirely spent on worker grade assessments. Today it was fitters, tomorrow it was riveters, and the day after tomorrow it was other types of work. As the largest factory in Songshan County or even in several nearby counties, there were many types of work in the steel plant. It was only in January, when the Chinese New Year was approaching, that it became less busy. Even if the country needed them, they still had to take a break throughout the year, right?
Just like last time, there was a competition first. The electrician profession requires a very high level of knowledge of electricity.
It is impossible to let a person with only a limited knowledge become an electrician. What if he gets electrocuted to death?
There are quite a lot of people taking the exam this time. There are level one electricians who want to take the level two exam, level two electricians who want to take the level four exam, and as for level four electricians who want to take the level five exam?
No, maybe we can look forward to seeing Jiang Baizhou in July this summer vacation, but not now.
All the electricians were put in the same room, sitting in random positions and taking different exams, which also prevented people from wanting to cheat.
This year's examination paper for upgrading from Level 1 electrician to Level 2 has neat and clean handwriting, which is very elegant, and the strokes are unique. The words look beautiful no matter how you look at them.
Someone took a quick look at the test paper of the person next to him. It was very good, the handwriting was normal, but it was understandable.
Hey! I made a profit on the assessment this year! I wonder if I can take the test paper with me after I finish it?
Most people thought of taking this test paper home, not to mention practicing it, but also letting their children at home practice it. There were no copybooks for practicing calligraphy in those days.
As the number one contributor to the level one to level two exam, Jiang Baizhou said that he did not need such an honor. These days he went home to copy excerpts from the exam papers, a total of ten copies, and his right hand was almost not a hand anymore.
Jiang Baizhou was not responsible for copying the test papers for the promotion from second-level electrician to third-level electrician. Who asked him to take the test as well? Master Liu even glared at him. Is it easy for an old man like him to write so many papers?
After carefully looking at the test paper, Jiang Baizhou found that he could answer all the questions. He was not in a hurry to write. He spread out the paper first, closed his eyes and rested for a while before picking up the pen.
Liu Hao, who was three tables away, naturally saw his look. He snorted coldly and cursed Jiang Baizhou in his heart for pretending. No matter how smart a person was, how could he advance from level two to level three in just half a year? After reading these questions... he only knew most of them. This time he would definitely fail the bet of eating the table.
Liu Hao began to do the questions seriously.
There were four other people who also took the third-level electrician exam. Some of them worked in the steel plant, some did not, and two of them worked in government agencies.
Those who knew the answer were writing the test paper seriously, while those who didn’t were scratching their heads. The scene in the examination room was pretty much the same as it is today.
An hour later, as Master Liu and his two companions went down to collect the papers, the examination was over and they only had to wait for the final list.
"Old Liu, this is the test paper of your nephew Liu Hao. It turns out he got 89 points, which means he passed." A fourth-level electrician master said.
"Hmph, you're still far from it. If you could learn from Xiao Jiang, you'd get another perfect answer." Master Liu was still disappointed.
Another senior electrician, a fourth-level technician, leaned over to take a look. Xiao Jiang's handwriting presented a stark contrast to the test questions. He quickly scanned it before speaking, "All correct. And Lao Liu, let me just say your handwriting is really shabby compared to Xiao Jiang's."
Master Liu got angry and said, "My handwriting is ugly, but yours is not. You are still not as good as me!"
“…”
The three old teachers were bickering as usual, but they were very fast in checking the questions and correcting the test papers.
On the posted list, some were happy and some were worried. This time, there was also someone who had seen Jiang Baizhou answer questions last time. So, when Jiang Baizhou's full-mark paper was posted, the legend of Jiang Baizhou began to spread among this group of more than a dozen workers in Songshan County.
By the time Jiang Baizhou ran out of room for promotion in Songshan County and moved to a larger factory in Beilin City, his image had already been deified in the electrician community.
"How could this happen! Jiang Baizhou! You are my lifelong enemy!"
Liu Hao muttered to himself after reading the list. He looked through the test paper and found some questions he didn't know how to answer. After reading the answers written by Jiang Baizhou, he suddenly understood. So this is how it can be done.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he immediately scolded himself and reminded himself not to fall into Jiang Baizhou's trap.
During the second operation assessment, Liu Hao was very serious. He was able to ask Master Liu for advice at home. This was his advantage over others, definitely better than Jiang Baizhou.
With the belief of winning, Liu Hao's concentration improved a lot this time.
Wait until everyone has basically completed the operation assessment.
"Liu Hao, 95 points, passed the test."
When Liu Hao heard the name, he was very excited. He stared at Jiang Baizhou with joy.
"Jiang Baizhou, 98 points, passed the test."
What does it mean to be in heaven or hell in one thought? This is probably what Liu Hao meant at this moment. In the last second he was happy about being promoted to a third-level electrician, and in the next second he wanted to cry because of Jiang Baizhou's promotion to a third-level electrician.
"Wuwuwu..." Liu Hao suppressed his crying, making it sound like he was crying tears of joy, even though his expression was so distorted and ugly.
But everyone congratulated him, which made him smile.
His face was crying and laughing at the same time, which looked very creepy, causing others to wonder if he was possessed by an evil spirit.
Fortunately, Master Liu was there. His big hand slapped Liu Hao's back, making him feel like his bones were about to shift. Liu Hao also heard: "You kid, just be happy if you want to, why are you being so weird!"
Oh my god, is he being weird? Uncle, you don't need to eat tables and chairs!
Liu Hao looked at the culprit, Jiang Baizhou, today's third-level electrician, and gave him a clean and hearty smile, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.
After the assessment was over and he returned to the office, Liu Hao was ready to save himself and said, "Jiang Baizhou, our bet is over now that I've been promoted to a third-level electrician. The previous bet is no longer valid."
