Chapter 8 Dreaming
Although the Han family wooden yard is only grade C, it is considered a large wooden yard among villages and towns with a radius of hundreds of miles.
According to the regulations of the court, a Class C wooden workshop must have five craftsmen above the Yellow level. Daduan has implemented education since its founding and encouraged people to work, so there are also requirements for the number of apprentices in the workshop.
Apprenticeship assessments for each type of job are held every three years. In actual operations, different job types will be rotated every year, which has become a fixed matter for the government. In each assessment, at least three people in the C-level workshop must pass the apprenticeship assessment and become recognized Huang-level craftsmen. If the C-level workshop fails to meet the number of apprentices during the assessment for three consecutive times, the workshop will be demoted, thus losing the qualification to accept tasks assigned by the court, and the losses are not bad.
Therefore, every workshop attaches great importance to apprenticeship assessment. During the assessment year, the workshop’s most capable master will often lead the apprentice who is preparing for the assessment to conduct pre-exam training half a year in advance.
Of course, generally speaking, pre-exam training is still about basic skills.
The annual assessment is three questions in three days, and the examiner is held by local local officials and the chief master of Class B workshops at the same time. If the questions were mainly given by the workshop master, then the passing rate was very high; but if the local officials intervened intentionally or unintentionally, there might be situations where the questions could only be guessed based on their feelings, and the apprentices who were assessed that year could only think of themselves as unlucky.
Before, no one wrote a letter to His Majesty by the Ministry of Works. After reading the topics of several prefectures, His Majesty just laughed and scolded the stinky habit of literati and then left it alone.
In this case, the title of the title is naturally not acceptable. The only way out is to work hard to practice basic skills. The more proficient you are in the basic skills, the greater the chances of passing the level.
Han’s Wooden Floor’s strategy is naturally no exception. The only difference is that the master of Han’s wooden house, Han Jinglun’s third uncle, the old man who stopped people at the door, was actually a land-level carpenter!
You should know that ordinary prefecture-level craftsmen will gather in Class B workshops in various counties, and some of them have outstanding expertise and will even work in Class A workshops in the capital of a state. And this old man looked inconspicuous and willing to stay in such a small place as Huatai Town…
Ning Wei couldn’t help but look up at the old man in surprise, but faced the old man’s smug look.
Ning Weize sighed and was about to turn his eyes away, the old man said provocatively: “Little girl, I know you are not convinced. Do you think you have some furniture research in your hand? In addition, you have learned some carpenter’s fur from your father, and you feel that you are very awesome?”
Ning Weize pursed his lips, and the old man sneered: “Why don’t we make a bet! I’ll take out a small object,You imitate this small object. If you do it almost exactly the same, I will lose. I promise that you will be the only one during the three months of further study. I will not be sure of anything you want to learn. But if you lose… then forget your research for the time being, and bring tea and water to the old man according to the way of another apprentice. How about it? “
Is this a provocation?
But for yourself, if you win, you will naturally have three months of free cram school; if you lose, in the worst case, it is nothing more than just learning by yourself. There is no loss, so let’s try it!
Ning Wei looked not afraid of trouble and raised his eyebrows and responded: “Okay, one word is certain. “
“Cao Chun, go to my utility room and bring some of the gadgets I made before and show this little girl! “
“Okay, master, please wait. “A silly young man wearing a standard apprentice uniform ran out into the wing room.
After a while, the young man ran over with a four-legged object and handed it to the old man’s hand with both hands.
The old man was stunned when he got the object, his mouth trembled, and then brushed the dust on the things with his hands, and he was a little dazed for a moment.
Ning Wei was very patient and waited quietly for a while. Han Jinglun shouted out first: “Uncle San, why are you still standing there? It’s a question! ”
The old man came to his senses and handed the thing in his hand to Ning Weize: “Oh, yes, just do this. Cao Chun, you are watching here, and you can start with the materials and tools you need. I’m old, my arms and legs are old, so I’ll smoke a cigarette first, it’s easy to relax. “
Ning Weize carefully took it to his hand.
A stool with square and round legs, straight. The connection between the stool legs and the stool surface was a little loose, as if they were hit hard.
Just as he was about to carefully distinguish the details, a white mist suddenly appeared in front of Ning Weize. In the middle of the mist, it seemed like a rotating square, a bit like the unopened box at home, but it was also in a daze and indistinguishable.
Is it because I didn’t eat lunch and fainted from hypoxia?
Then Ning Weize lost consciousness.
Ning Weize, who woke up again, was holding a plane in his hand, patiently polishing a wooden board.
However, the hand holding the plane was the hand of a thick young man.
“Han Erniu, after finishing the work, I got these boards of yours again.” The sun shone in the yard, and an apprentice passing by in the distance greeted him.
“Yes, I finally got such a good piece of beech. This time I have thought about something to do! “Ning Wei opened his mouth and responded vigorously in the voice of a young man.
