The curtain in the examination room is specially designed, and there is a mechanism that will fall off the whole cloth if you pull it gently.

With the crisp sound of chimes and brushes, all the curtains fell, and only a few candidates slowed down by half a beat, but then they also pulled down the mechanism.

The eight words "drag out of the examination room to cancel the results" are still quite deterrent.

After Xu Wen pulled down the mechanism, he stood back next to his workbench, and quickly felt the gaze coming from all directions.

Not only him, but all the people around him were quietly looking at other people's platforms, wanting to see how others were doing.

"Be cautious in your words and deeds!" a shout came from above, and the candidates immediately withdrew their gaze and lowered their eyes, as honest as quails.

The people present are basically apprentices, and being scolded by the master is their daily routine, and they can't be better at pretending to be stupid.

Xu Wen stood calmly, staring ahead, and met Sun Boran's eyes again.

Sun Boran seemed a little surprised when he saw him, Xu Wen didn't know what he was wondering about, and looked back with some confusion.

Sun Boran was indeed surprised.

Three days ago, he deliberately avoided the sixth exam room in the first row for some reason, so it was only now that he found out that the set of ten miniature furniture that was delivered in Guoxiang Lane that day was the legendary Yushui County Wushou Xu Wen!

Xu Wen's name, he really admired it for a long time—even though this young man was just an apprentice who had just passed the apprenticeship county exam.

The book about the full division method sent by Zhu Gantang last year clearly stated that the original method came from a candidate used in the second round of the county examination. This text explanation was also written by the examinee himself, and Zhu Gantang only polished it a little on the original basis.

When this recital was first presented, it did not receive much attention.

Craftsmanship is a very serious industry in terms of seniority, in fact, with the rich experience of the master, no matter how talented young people can compare.

As the starting point of the apprenticeship exam, the apprentice county exam is important, but the difficulty is actually not high.

The second round of last year's county exam was about the apprentices' collaboration, and in the final analysis, it was to see if they listened or not. This round will arrange an experienced master to take it, and there will be a master master town, and what the apprentices have to do is to lay down and use their basic skills to deal with some relatively simple work.

What can be the surprise of this kind of exam?

But Zhu Gantang is very persistent.

He went to the Ministry of Industry every three or five to ask, and the Ministry of Industry did not give feedback and directly gave the emperor a fold, and finally attracted the emperor to inquire, and the Ministry of Industry paid attention to it a little bit, and turned it out from the pile of old papers.

The Ministry of Industry is just a little biased, not without eyesight.

After a little research, they discovered the mystery of this so-called "total division".

Sun Boran was also one of them at the time.

He remembered very well that after a round of meetings, these old craftsmen were shocked.

They stared at the paper on the table, and only after half a ring did someone sigh: "If it weren't for Lord Zhu's words, who would dare to believe that this was the handwriting of a thirteen-year-old boy?"

"Yes, the old craftsmen may not be so fine. Someone else responded.

"The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves...... I'm ashamed of myself!"

Their exclamation may sound exaggerated, but it is not unfounded.

Mass manufacturing methods such as the full fraction method have not been seen before.

How to improve efficiency and productivity is a matter that many craftsmen, especially those in the Ministry of Industry, have been studying.

As far as artistic aesthetics are concerned, personal craftsmanship can show more personality and aura, but from a practical point of view, it is necessary to improve efficiency as much as possible.

They have come up with many ways to do it, and it's not uncommon to have something like a full division. But compared to the one in front of him, it can't help but be a little naïve and superficial.

The idea of a construction method like this is not complicated, but the details are complicated.

With so many people, how to organize without making mistakes, how to solve problems in the middle, how to manage, and how to coordinate with other links...... Each one is very particular.

Take time as an example, if the arrangement is too tight, the fault tolerance rate will be too low, and the arrangement too loose will cause slackness, which is very particular.

Humans are not machines, they are very complex creatures, and there are many, many things to consider in order to organize a large number of people and make them run like machines.

The book submitted by Zhu Gantang is too thoughtful and meticulous.

It's organized, layered, and written down one by one, encompassing almost every aspect they can think of.

After watching it for a long time, it was really hard to imagine that this would be written by a thirteen-year-old boy.

A thirteen-year-old boy, who is said to have been born in a small place in the countryside, has certainly never seen the world and experienced large-scale projects.

Where did he come from to know so much and come up with so much content?

Do you think with your heart?

"Legend has it that there are people who are born to know, and the ancients are honest and do not deceive me. ”

A waiter stroked his beard and sighed, and Sun Boran listened beside him, thinking the same thing.

Many people say that he is a rare genius in ten years, and he himself thinks so. But now compared to this young man, he rarely feels a little ashamed - of course, it is the same talent, and the methods that the two are good at are completely different.

Therefore, Sun Boran remembers Xu Wen's name and origin very well.

It stands to reason that before the exam, he should summon the heads of goods at all levels to encourage him, but in the end, he didn't see any of them.

Of course, this is because something happened and he missed it by mistake, but it was also because he deliberately avoided it.

Xu asked that this person was too special and too early to get on the number, which would inevitably be unfair to other candidates.

Moreover, Sun Boran also wanted to look at Xu Wen's true level as objectively as possible - the real skill of being a craftsman.

It's just that I really didn't expect that he would ask Xu Wen......

Sun Boran glanced at him deeply, looked away expressionlessly, and said, "Trouble Lord Yun read out the scoring rules." ”

Yun Yuanji couldn't help but look at Xu Wen twice just now.

The Ministry of Works was too far away from him, and of course he didn't know about the total division. What he was curious about was that they had all come down to inspect the examination in the past three nights, and they had not worked overnight for a day in Shuixian County.

This kind of ability to be firm and calm, with more than 2,000 candidates in the audience, is really the only one.

I don't know how well he did......

Thinking like this, Yun Yuanji shook off the scroll in his hand, squinted his eyes and began to read.

"All finished products in each category are assessed according to the same criteria. ”

Not many of the people present were literate, and some people couldn't understand the words if they were a little more profound, so the test scoring rules in Yun Yuanji's hands were also written in plain language, basically in the vernacular.

"The assessment is divided into three items, the first is whether it is completed or not. This item has a total of 50 points, and examines five aspects. First, whether the form is complete and whether the box should be in a state. Second, whether the carving is complete and whether there are missing parts. Third, whether the box meets the required number according to the rules......"

Yun Yuanji finished reading these five items in order, looked down, smiled slightly, and continued, "The second item, the quality of the box surface and the carved lattice, this item is also fifty points. In the third item, the candidate dictates the actual use of the treasure chest. This item—"

"Fifty points for the same!"
