Chapter 137 The final exam

At night, the moonlight shone on the south of the county and was separated by high felt walls into frost. The original preparation area with drums was only a pile of bags covered with oil cloth. There were only a lot of bags left at that time, but now there are still many, and there are still many baskets.

Zheng Que was fully focused. He had no idea what kind of wooden parts he made now, but they must be parts. The wood was red jujube wood, with a wide shape in front, narrow in the middle, wide in the back, and a groove was carved from the top, extending to the back wide position, expanding, and a vertical rectangular hole was chiseled.

Since he was eliminated, he has been urging everyone to come here by the inspectors. This place must be a craftsmanship established by the official office, carpenters and blacksmiths mixed together, and the movements of the craftsmanship made the craftsman day and night, fire, high temperature, wood chips, iron, and various odors on people's bodies made Zheng Que, who was nine years old and a commoner, at a loss. The inspectors said that no one was allowed to leave this place before the end of the craftsman's examination.

The most terrifying thing is that the inspector also said that every time a standard wooden part is made, the craftsman must engrave his or her household registration place and name in the specified position. If the production is not standard and there is a problem when combining the utensils, all the grades of the craftsman will be abandoned and will not be re-examined for the rest of his life.

"Woo... I want to go home." Zheng Que howled silently, his face was too dirty, and the tears were black when he fell off and he couldn't wipe it because his hands were even dirtier.

In the examination room, Wang Gezao finished making the abacus and was knitting a needle and thread cage with rushes. The needle and thread cage was the first item she could eliminate to transform. Unexpectedly, according to the requirements on the bamboo slips, it was the easiest to do.

The requirements for the needle and thread cage renovation are: add a pattern to make it more elegant.

The transformation of straw ropes was the most unexpected thing to her. In fact, it was not considered a transformation. She had to tie ten kinds of strong straw rope knots. Wang Ge only knew three kinds, and she couldn't even get it.

Requirements for square footwear: Adjust the weft rope to increase the wear resistance by at least 10%. Candidates can give up. If they are perfunctory to transform, waste materials and reduce the number of other objects to transform into results.

The same is required for armor sheets: after polishing the armor sheets and braiding them into arm pins, at least one percent of the defense is added.

Tsk tsk tsk... Wear resistance and defense, is this a game? Ancient words are quite trendy. Wang Ge is afraid that he will change it, and the defense of the armor sheet will be weaker.

The next day, some candidates ended the competition early, but they really couldn't procrastinate. The inspectors came and went, and the inspectors were so embarrassed that the inspectors stared at the other party. What's the point of holding on with such a embarrassed attitude?

Wang Ge could no longer hold on. She completed the needle and thread cage transformation, added large rectangular patterns, and put the small diamond patterns into each rectangular pattern. However, after making this utensil, she couldn't sit still. She had already sorted out the materials, and the grass plant was smoother than her hair, and the tools were even rolled upside down in the basket several times, just one by one, just counting straws.

The inspector is abominable. Just like the invigilator in his previous life, she knew that she could not do anything, and she wandered around the more she was.

Alas, forget it, Wang Ge is like other candidates who left the production area early, and feels that even if they force themselves, they will only be looked down upon by the inspectors. But can her grades be retained? In the final struggle, Wang Ge tried his best and built a "chopstick arch bridge" that he often played in his previous life with nine bamboo plots. Then he placed the sinking basket containing five kinds of utensils on the thin bamboo stick bridge and left the utensil shed.

The sun was shining outside, and lunch was being distributed in the lounge area. Wang Ge probably counted, and at least more than 40 candidates ended early, and he felt much more at ease.

In the afternoon, the candidates came out one after another. At sunset, the fifth exam was announced to end early. The examiners evaluated their grades overnight. They could not sleep one by one. They stretched their necks in the dark and looked into the utensil.

"Candy Weaving Utensils Shed, Pumps, Twenty-Five, Two Numbers Candidates Come in."

Wang Ge was mentally prepared, but he didn't expect that the one who was asked first was the Chuangchao Bridge.

Examiner Gu: "Don't be nervous, candidates. Did you think about the way to build this bamboo stick?"

"yes."

Wang Ge had already compiled the reason, but the examiner did not ask, but said "Okay" twice, and asked the abacus again: "Explain this thing."

"Return to the examiner, this object imitates abacus board, and looks like fixing bamboo beads in an elongated plate, so I call it an abacus."

Liu Examiner: "Youzhu Abacus is divided into two-color beads, which can be counted, added or subtracted. If the abacus you made only changes its appearance, it cannot be considered to improve its function, and the score is at most 'weak'."

Wang Ge: "Return to the examiner, this abacus can be counted as the nine-nine table."

"Talk about it in detail."

"Each bead is counted for five, and each bead is counted for one. Use the upper bead for five, and the full ten is counted for one. Candidates request a demonstration for the examiner, such as..."

In less than half an hour, the two examiners who were not arithmetic finally couldn't stand it and asked Wang Ge out. What was "how many times to go"? What was "how many times to return to the best"? I was confused when I heard it.

It’s better to ask the examiner quickly.

It was late the afternoon of the next day.

The candidates retained in the three major examination areas were combined, with a total of 99 people. Wang Ge stood at the head of the team with the best score in the second examination area.

In fact, the first and third examination areas have already produced the results in the early morning, but the second examination area has been extended for one morning. The examiner came in person and asked Wang Ge to demonstrate the addition, subtraction, and multiplication of the abacus again, and then defined the score of this object as the only "strong" among all candidates.

This time, the examiner personally told the final competition. Wang Ge was next to the examiner and admired him recently. This was the second master she met.

If this old man hadn't understood arithmetic, her confident abacus might not be able to even be "weak". The examiner also praised her for the "wonderful" of the bamboo stick bridge, praising her as a top craftsman.

"Calling candidates, let's enter the final elimination competition. You will form a two-person team with ninety-nine blacksmith candidates and fight against the winners of the ninety-nine village soldiers."

A sound of breath! Fighting? Puffing with a broom, slapping bamboo sticks, and slapping with a straw rope? Will you be slapped in the face? Will you be kicked three feet away by someone?

The examiner smiled and continued, "Start up immediately, you can use your own skills to make a utensil, which may help you defend, cough... or attack, or both attack and defense. There is enough materials and tools. The next day, meet with their respective blacksmiths and go to the village military field in the west. Do you understand?"

"I understand." The examiner Renshan said, and he advised the candidates to make defensive objects, and to be beaten less, so don't be foolish and make attack objects, and don't expect to be both offensive and defensive.

"The team formation method is that our best scorers are the last ones with the blacksmith candidates, and the second and the ninety-eighth ones are teamed up to postpone this way. Do you understand?"

The scores fell off and shouted immediately!

Wang Ge secretly said that she was unlucky. She wanted to fight with a blacksmith with the worst grades with the best in the village soldiers!

The examiner: "There are three competitions in total. As long as you wait for one, you will win. All candidates believe in your hands, your creativity, and believe in the ability of craftsmen. You may not lose... it is too miserable. In short, this assessment is the last assessment, and only the final fifty places will be left! I hope you wait... and do your best!"
Chapter completed!
