Chapter 132 Safety Helmet
When Lin Yuzhu arrived, the workers on the construction site were working hard.
In this era, everyone is cost-effective and there are almost no lazy people. Lin Yuzhu found Master Ma, who was in charge of managing the construction workers.
Master Ma welcomed her arrival, took her around the construction site and gave her a detailed introduction.
Lin Yuzhu felt that she barely understood it, and inquired carefully about the construction materials. After comparing them with the information she had found before, she felt relieved when she found that there was no cutting of corners.
Afterwards, she let Master Ma go about his business while she just walked around the construction site.
After looking at the construction environment, she found it a bit messy and the dining environment was also a bit poor, but fortunately, these can be improved. However, the only thing that concerned her was that no one wore a safety helmet.
This obviously poses a greater safety hazard.
However, she was not sure whether the safety helmet had been invented yet, so she planned to ask Master Ma.
When Master Ma heard her words, he turned around and went back to the employees' rest area and took out two safety helmets.
"Is this what you are talking about, Director Lin?"
“…”
Lin Yuzhu didn't know what to say when she looked at the two people in safety helmets.
Obviously these two helmets were different from any she had seen before.
One of them looked familiar to her. It was similar in shape to the safety helmets of later generations, except that it was made of metal. But if she remembered correctly, this was not a safety helmet used on construction sites, right? It looked like the helmet worn by artillerymen in the army, right?
As for the other one, it was actually made of rattan, but its shape was still that of a safety helmet.
She was confused and asked hesitantly: "Are these the helmets you mentioned?"
"yes!"
Master Ma nodded and pointed to the first one. "This was brought back by my son. He is a soldier and captured it on the battlefield. But it was broken when he brought it back. I asked the master at the steel factory to help fix it. It can be used now, but it is a little heavy."
Lin Yuzhu was silent for a moment after hearing this. No wonder the colors were different. He weighed it in his hand and almost dropped it. It wasn't just a little heavier, it was a billion points heavier!
If you wear this, aren't you afraid that it will hurt your neck?
As if he could see what she was thinking, Master Ma sighed and said, "It wasn't originally heavy. My son told me that other intact helmets seized were very light and not heavy to wear. But I didn't know the material, so the master at the steel plant used iron to weld it on for me."
Lin Yuzhu was speechless after hearing this. It was like wearing a piece of iron on the head. How could it not be heavy?
But don’t they have this kind of helmet now? She remembered that it used to be seen in war movies on TV.
Then I listened to Master Ma's explanation, "Although it's heavy, it's really useful. When you wear it, it can protect your head even if something falls on you. I'd say these Americans have pretty good brains. The soldiers can't be shot when they wear them. I heard that our country will also have them. I guess we can wear them on the battlefield in the future."
At this point, Master Ma suddenly felt that he had said too much, so he quickly changed the subject and wanted Lin Yuzhu to try it on.
Lin Yuzhu...refused.
Then, fearing that he would insist, he quickly asked another question, "What's going on here?"
"Ah, this was invented by a professor of architecture at Hua University a few years ago. The professor had studied abroad in his early years and said that construction workers abroad would wear a plastic helmet for safety reasons.
But we don't have it here, so he asked someone to make something similar out of rattan for the workers to wear. You know what, it's really sturdy. If you wear it, even if a stone falls and gets hit, it's fine."
