Everyone in the workshop gathered around. They all knew that a recent college graduate was coming to their workshop as a technician, but they didn't expect her to be a young girl. She looked very young and was quite thin, but she was surprisingly strong.
Even for people like them who do heavy work all year round, unloading these things is very difficult.
The workshop was already hot, and with people surrounding him like this, Qian Xiao was sweating profusely. He wiped his forehead with his sleeve and focused his attention on the parts that needed repair.
Qian Xiao knew he was surrounded, but he didn't care much. People from China love to watch a good show, and he was no different.
"Master Wu, please come and take a look. It's best to replace this part with a new one. The wear and tear is too severe. Even if it's repaired this time, it won't last long before the same problem reappears."
Master Wu stood behind Qian Xiao the whole time, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face the moment Qian Xiao opened the door. It's good to have real skills; the real problem is when someone comes along who pretends to know everything, who's just there to cause trouble.
Master Wu took the parts from Qian Xiao's hands and examined them. Sure enough, it was just as the girl had said. He had already determined that this was the cause that morning. Knowing that a new employee was coming today, he wasn't in a hurry to repair it. He was waiting for the new employee to arrive so he could test his skills.
"That's right, just as I suspected. Do you see any other reasons?"
Qian Xiao nodded: "Also, there's something wrong with how the gears are turning. It's probably because the meshing of the two gears isn't adjusted properly. Just adjust the distance by one millimeter."
Master Wu nodded, a rare smile appearing on his face: "Can you make this part?"
This is a bit unreasonable. This is a fitter's job, and Master Wu didn't expect Qian Xiao to know how to do it. He just asked casually, like an old master who can't stand seeing his apprentice doing too well, so he gave him a difficult problem to make things difficult.
The idea was to make the apprentice realize his shortcomings and prevent him from becoming arrogant and complacent. Unfortunately, Master Wu really used the wrong method this time.
Qian Xiao is the type who either doesn't do anything at all, or if she does something, she does it to the best of her ability. Since she had already decided to do this kind of work, she had already mastered all the relevant technologies.
You could say that as long as you provide her with the materials and machines, she can make a new machine tool for you right now by hand. She may not be good at inventions or research, but copying her is definitely not a problem.
"Sure, do you have any suitable materials?"
Master Wu choked. Was this kid overdoing it? Could a skilled worker like you really do the work of a fitter?
Putting aside whether you have enough strength, how can you make it without any training? The parts on this kind of machine tool can't be even slightly different; they require a very high level of precision.
At this moment, a young man in the workshop spoke up with a grin: "Yes, technician, do you need it?" He was clearly looking for a laugh.
Qian Xiao nodded and held out her hand, meaning "Take it." The young man didn't stand on ceremony and directly took out a piece of material and put it in Qian Xiao's hand. Qian Xiao looked around and saw a machine that could be used for polishing, so she went over to it.
Without any help, they simply turned on the machine and started grinding the materials. Sparks flew everywhere, but Qian Xiao showed no fear whatsoever and was unusually serious.
Sun Kaicheng would stare at Qian Xiao every time he saw her like that. No wonder those strange novels always say that men and women are most charming when they are working hard.
The people in the workshop looked at each other in disbelief. This little girl really knew how to do it, but the accuracy was another matter. Even now, they still didn't quite believe that a young girl could have such good skills.
All of these fitters started working in the factory when they were teenagers. It takes several years to become an apprentice, and it takes at least five or six years to become a full-fledged fitter. This little girl is so young. Even if she started learning from the womb, she couldn't possibly make parts that only advanced fitters can make now.
Qian Xiaocai didn't care what others thought. If you had to consider everyone's thoughts, you'd be exhausted. As long as you knew what you were doing, didn't try to be clever, and had a clear conscience, that was enough.
For a moment, the only sound in the huge workshop was the sound of machines rubbing against metal. As long as Qian Xiao was working seriously, she could automatically block out all the noise outside and concentrate on her work.
Master Wu waved his hand, and an older master craftsman of about the same age came over. The two of them went behind Qian Xiao and carefully observed Qian Xiao's movements.
The young girl was not as flustered and hesitant as they had imagined. Instead, she was as serious as many experienced craftsmen, and her hands were quite steady. Every polishing stroke was done without hesitation, as if she had done it hundreds of times beforehand.
Sun Kaicheng remained silent the whole time. That's how it is in the tech world; there might be less backstabbing, but if you want to gain a foothold, you need real skills and expertise. If he stood up to speak up for Erdan, it wouldn't do him any good.
He also knew that Erdan could easily handle today's events. Erdan was able to absorb and apply the knowledge that he and the little system had tutored him very well. It has to be said that Erdan is very smart, but he is just a bit lazy.
The rattling sound continued for quite a while. After the machine stopped, Qian Xiao carefully examined the parts in his hands, as if his eyes were precision measuring instruments. He meticulously cleaned the debris off the parts with his gloved hands.
He handed it to the two experienced craftsmen watching nearby: "Could you two please take a look and see if it meets the standards?"
She had simulated this part many times in space, but this was the first time she had actually done it herself. Although she thought it was perfect, she still needed others to agree.
The experienced worker next to Master Wu took the part first. Although he was not the most senior worker in the factory, he was definitely the most skilled one. He had been working for decades and could tell whether a part was up to standard as soon as he touched it.
The master craftsman nodded in satisfaction: "This little girl has some skills," and then the part was handed to Master Wu.
Although Master Wu is not a professional fitter, he is a highly skilled technician. He can tell whether a part is suitable or not with just a glance.
He looked up at Qian Xiao and said, "Not bad. I didn't expect you to be able to do fitter work. This is Master Wang, the best fitter in our factory. If you have any questions in the future, you can ask him for help."
Qian Xiao grinned and said, "Hello, Master Wang, my name is Qian Xiao."
Master Wang nodded happily: "Qian girl, go and try it now."
Qian Xiao took the parts that the two experienced craftsmen had approved, walked to the place where disassembly was to begin, and skillfully installed the new parts. Only after feeling that there were no problems did he install the outer shell as well.
