Chapter 95 Master (Third update)
Qu Jianlei's words can often choke people to death, and this sentence is no exception.
However, although Geng Shou Gong is a technical boss, since he is in a management position, he does not lack experience in dealing with people.
So he answered simply, "It's cold this winter. Sir, since you are here at Universe Six, I hope you will consider it for everyone."
"It's none of my business. When I was about to die, I didn't see anyone thinking about me," Qu Jianlei replied gruffly.
"Bring me six hundred first, and then I'll go take a look... I told you in advance that I may not be able to help you, but I have to collect the money first."
"No problem!" Geng Shou Gong agreed without hesitation, "Come out now and I will count the money for you on the spot."
He is really not afraid of giving the banknote directly. Unless the other party Collect Money leaves directly after that, it is always part of his calculation.
Qu Jianlei opened the door and walked out, then smiled slightly, "Even if it doesn't work this time, I will always pay you back... What a plan."
Understand people! Geng Shou Gong also smiled slightly, "If you don't return it, I can't say anything, right?"
Qu Jianlei rolled his eyelids and muttered softly, "Can I afford to throw that person away?"
As expected of someone I value! Geng Shou Gong's mouth twitched, "Let's go then?"
"Bank notes," Qu Jianlei stretched out his hand and checked twice.
"How rare are you?" Geng Shou Gong counted out six banknotes and handed them to Hua Xiezhi, "Count them."
Qu Jianlei will not suspect that there is something wrong with the other party's banknote, and he will not worry about such a trivial matter, "Wait while I pack some tools."
Seeing him putting some tools into a big bag, Geng Shou Gong subconsciously asked, "So many homemade ones?"
"Homemade tools fit better in the hand," Qu Jianlei can't say of course, since he has never had much contact with formal tools from the beginning.
Relying on the huge garbage dump, you can just do it according to your temper, and there is no need to be restricted by rules and regulations.
Geng Shou Gong How could you imagine that this is the case? He heard Diandian's head, "Using homemade tools... it's really good!"
In his impression, it is not uncommon for repairmen to use homemade tools - many homemade tools fit better in the hand than standard tools.
But someone like this person who has prepared so many homemade tools must be at least a senior Rank B repairman.
Hua Xiezhi pursed his lips when he heard this, and said to himself that he wanted to use standard tools, but he didn't have the conditions.
"The amount of the banknote is correct. Do you want me to go into the city with you?"
"Then let's go together," Qu Jianlei Diandian said, "Let's see what we want to buy."
With Geng Shou Gong leading the way, they drove into Settlement and arrived at the heating center.
The guards here are very tight, and it looks like a "core place".
Even though Geng Shou Gong was leading the way, the guard registered the nicknames of Qu Jianlei very seriously, and even wanted him to take off his hijab.
Qu Jianlei said very simply: If you insist, then I won't enter! Finally, Boss Geng had some face and patiently explained a few words, and the guards were able to give in.
——The key is that the recent heating is really not working, and the guard himself can't stand it.
After arriving at the heating station, Hua Xiezhi was politely but firmly blocked from entering. Only Qu Jianlei was eligible to enter.
The heating station is large and has a lot of equipment inside.
Qu Jianlei At first glance, I felt a little regretful: for such a big place, six hundred Silver Coin was still too little.
Several maintenance technicians were checking there. When they saw him coming in, they knew without thinking that it was the master whose ears could be used as flaw detectors.
They didn't come over to say hello, but stopped what they were doing and just stood there watching.
A truly capable person will not easily recognize his peers, especially Geng Shou Gong who has been bragging about this person before.
However, a staff member came over, a man in his early thirties, holding a stack of information that was 40 centimeters thick.
He said enthusiastically, "Panda Master, this is a schematic diagram of the operation of the equipment... Some of them are unique to Universe Six, please take a look first."
Fortunately, Qu Jianlei has been supplementing his mechanical knowledge recently, otherwise he would have been blinded on the spot.
He took the information and put it on the table, then spread it out and quickly identified the type of information.
"Here are the summarized solutions." The man took out another stack of paper, which was about one centimeter thicker than Buduo.
It turns out that these maintenance engineers have not done anything. They have already given a lot of plans, and now they are just about to make a decision.
Several maintenance technicians had curious looks on their faces, wanting to see how this person would express his position.
Qu Jianlei Originally wanted to make a decision after reading the information. Although the information is thick, it does not require reading all of it.
But in that case, he would have to look through it quickly. Burning calories was secondary, and the key was to expose some details.
Now his first goal is to hide Zhuozhuo, especially since the wanted order for Sai family has been sent to Zhou-Designated Residential Area.
He took the compiled information and flipped through it quickly. Although he controlled his reading speed, he could still read ten lines at a glance.
Seeing the speed at which he turned the pages, several maintenance technicians couldn't help but murmured, "Can this guy understand it?"
"Are you pretending?" A middle-aged maintenance man couldn't help but sneered, "Who can see so quickly?"
He is the only Rank B maintenance technician on site and has only been certified for less than two years.
He was quite unconvinced that Geng Shou Gong had to wait for the person named "Panda" to come.
However, Mr. Geng thought highly of him and helped him pass the certification. He was regarded as his noble man, and he couldn't say anything no matter how unconvinced he was.
When another middle-aged maintenance technician heard this, Flag clearly opposed his words.
"I've seen really smart maintenance technicians who can read a page at a glance. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't do it."
The so-called colleagues are enemies. This person also applied for Rank B maintenance technician certification, but failed, but he did not think he was bad.
Rank B The maintenance engineer smiled nonchalantly and said, "Really, who are you talking about?"
But this one answered calmly, "Master Luo Lin is the only female Rank A maintenance technician."
"Isn't it?" Rank B maintenance engineer looked at the other party in surprise, "You actually know Master Luo Lin?"
Geng Shou Gong was originally murmuring in his heart: Is this guy reading information? Hearing the conversation between these two people, he felt relieved: Sure enough, I don't understand the world of geniuses.
Qu Jianlei After reading through the summarized information, it took less than twenty minutes from beginning to end.
He didn't express any opinion, but frowned and thought for two minutes, then picked up the information and started looking through it.
Looking through it this time, the target he chose was much clearer, so it took a total of... an hour and a half.
After putting down the information, he thought for Buduo for five more minutes before speaking out, "Okay, I have a plan."
"What plan?" Rank B maintenance engineer couldn't help but said, "Can we discuss it?"
Qu Jianlei glanced at him and shook his head, "It's just a testing plan, there is no need to discuss it."
He is neither deaf nor blind, and his hearing is exceptionally good. How could he not sense that this person is not very friendly to him? He didn't care about it. It was completely normal for this kind of situation to happen among peers, so just ignore it.
Then he took out seven or eight books and put them in the hands of the staff, "Hold them for me."
Next, he walked around the heating station holding an alloy stick more than one meter long.
He tapped here and there with his stick, stopping from time to time to look through the information.
It took Buduo an hour and a half. Seeing that it was getting dark, he handed over the answer sheet.
There are a total of six fault points and thirteen hidden dangers. If three of these hidden dangers are not dealt with as soon as possible, failure will occur.
Four of these six fault points have been analyzed by maintenance engineers, and another one has been included in the inspection recommendations.
But there is one thing that is really ignored by everyone, and the reason is very simple. This is the output component.
The output part of the equipment is easy to detect and repair, so no one thinks about it.
Nine of the thirteen hidden dangers have been calculated and are waiting to be tested and verified.
Three of the remaining four parts were non-major components, but the last one surprised everyone.
"How is this possible?" Rank B maintenance technician refused to believe it, "The parts were only replaced last summer."
The person who had just criticized him spoke up, "There are no hidden dangers in new parts? Isn't that right... Isn't it just a matter of taking them apart and testing them?"
"Yeah," someone said in support, "You only need to test a few points, so it's really easy."
Qu Jianlei found a total of nineteen problems, but in fact, this number is really Buduo.
The maintenance technicians gave various suggestions, and there were hundreds of items that needed to be inspected! The inspection itself takes a certain amount of time. Although some inspections can be performed at the same time, there are only so many maintenance technicians.
No matter how fast you go, you won't get anywhere fast.
Also, dismantling all these hundreds of items for testing is a huge project in itself and expensive.
The heating of Settlement residents will also be seriously affected.
Rank B The maintenance engineer also had to admit this, but he still said stubbornly, "Can you guarantee that it is all faults?"
Several maintenance technicians looked at him strangely: Isn't this question a bit too substandard?
Qu Jianlei was speechless, "If you still have problems, just keep checking... I just listed some main components."
As a maintenance technician, who dares to say that he can detect all problems? It is enough to be able to point out most of the problems in the main links.
Rank B The maintenance engineer also heard it, and the other party's answer was vaguely thorny, which made him even more annoyed.
"The projects you mentioned may not all have problems."
"Is there any problem? Can't we just check it out?" The person scolded him as usual, "The fault on this output terminal is easy to check."
The fault at the output end is something that no one has thought of, so it is representative.
This also requires stopping the operation to check, but since it is an external device, it does not need to be stopped for long.
Even including the replacement of parts, it only takes half an hour, and the impact on residents is minimal.
"Check it," Rank B maintenance engineer was annoyed, but he did not forget to emphasize one point, "Even if there is a problem, it does not mean that everything he said is right."
Chapter 96 Immediate Results (Fourth Update) Qu Jianlei didn't bother to pay attention to the noise. He turned his head and looked at Geng Shou Gong, "The work is done, where is the balance?"
"The balance..." Geng Shou Gong was also a little nervous and couldn't help but swallow, "Are you sure you have found all the faults?"
"Why do you ask such a layman's question?" Qu Jianlei looked at him strangely, "Can't we just find the main fault?"
Geng Shou Gong's face turned red, "Okay then, let's talk about another question... In such a short time, six hundred Silver Coin is not enough?"
Qu Jianlei stared at him blankly for a while, then sighed, "I have read all those testing plans..."
"Don't say adopt them all, just adopt any one... how much Silver Coin will it cost?"
Geng Shou Gong thought for a while, but still answered bravely, "But it only took you less than half a day in total, and the cost..."
This is not because he wants to embarrass Qu Jianlei. In fact, Wasteland has this kind of understanding. The respect for knowledge here is not from the heart.
They also want to respect knowledge, but half a day of knocking here and there with a stick is worth six hundred Silver Coin? Qu Jianlei looked at him speechlessly, "Wasteland What is the most valuable thing?"
"What is it..." Geng Shou Gong was a little confused, "A powerful adventurer?"
This is really true, Wasteland is talking about the strong being respected.
Qu Jianlei slapped his forehead and said helplessly, "The most valuable thing is talent!"
"That's true," Geng Shou Gong Diandian nodded, "But this is... too valuable for you, right?"
"You don't understand what kind of talent he is at all," Qu Jianlei said too lazily, "If you're not at ease, you should check and repair it first!"
Then he turned around and walked out, "Send me the balance... If you feel it's not worth it, that's up to you."
He does not want to be high-profile, but Asperger's Syndrome has this characteristic. He believes that what he recognizes should be recognized by others.
Of course, if the other party does not approve, there will be no future cooperation.
Geng Shou Gong at least thought of "there may be no future".
Just like when he first gave the other party 600 Silver Coin, he didn't even think about whether it was worth it this time. He just wanted to make it easier to speak next time.
So after being stunned for a moment, he quickly chased after him, "Wait a minute, don't you still want to read some books?"
Seeing him chasing after him, a maintenance engineer was stunned and said, "Mr. Geng is... the other side is really arrogant."
"If we can falsify it, won't he stop being crazy?" Finally, an upright maintenance engineer couldn't stand it and said, "Just falsify it."
Competition exists in every industry, but in industries with high technical requirements, some people are relatively simple.
It is actually not difficult to prove falsification. Within an hour, everyone tested two hidden dangers.
Both of these vulnerabilities are in easily detectable locations, and one of them does not even require downtime.
After two tests, at least no one dared to openly question Qu Jianlei anymore - they were really right.
Later, the request to temporarily stop the operation of the equipment was approved, so everyone tested the output failure.
It is the fault that Qu Jianlei pointed out that no one was aware of before. If you want to detect and repair this fault, you must shut down the machine.
Half an hour later, the repaired equipment restarted. Some people couldn't help but sigh, "Isn't this... so awesome?"
Apart from anything else, it is admirable to say that people have indeed discovered problems that no one else has discovered.
Rank B The maintenance engineer was unhappy when he heard this and raised his voice.
"Only three areas have been tested, and there are still sixteen areas to be tested. I said you... don't act like you have never seen the world, okay?"
The person who had been criticizing him smiled when he heard this and said, "You pointed out a problem that none of us have discovered. Are you still not convinced?"
Rank B The maintenance engineer was speechless, "At least the charge is a bit high... Six hundred Silver Coin, and that's just the upfront cost."
"Everyone, are you willing to be burdened by this outsider of unknown origin?"
Everyone present was a senior maintenance engineer, so it was impossible for them to be short of money, but these six hundred Silver Coin... it was really easy to earn.
However, after all, this is an industry that relies on technology to speak for itself, and finally someone expressed it.
"If he guessed the remaining sixteen points, six hundred Silver Coin are really Buduo."
More than Buduo? They did give testing suggestions. Generally speaking, the minimum testing plan is two thousand Silver Coin.
This cost is actually very saving, after all, it is the heating of the entire city... the entire Settlement.
Moreover, the two thousand Silver Coin is just the cost of testing. After the heating stops running, it will affect the operation of the entire city.
That loss is really hard to estimate.
But what is certain is... it is definitely more expensive than the inspection fee, and more expensive than the inspection fee plus maintenance fee!
It is precisely because of this that Universe Six has never stopped the heating system. There are too many balancing considerations.
"It's true Buduo," someone echoed. There really is more than one repairman with a conscience.
Rank B The maintenance engineer became impatient, "Let's check the other sixteen items first... Why didn't he participate?"
The one who criticized him looked at him as if he was mentally retarded, "Let him participate in... you don't want to do any of Settlement's big projects in the future?"
Rank B The maintenance engineer was agitated when he heard this, but in the end he still said harshly, "Do you think he is really that good?"
The one who showed no signs of weakness said, "The key is yourself... Do you think you are that good and can you withstand others?"
After one night, three faults had been repaired and seven hidden dangers had been identified.
Although the heating was intermittent throughout the night, in the early morning of the next day, the residents of Settlement were pleasantly surprised to find that the temperature in their homes seemed to be three or four degrees higher.
Don't underestimate these three or four degrees. The difference is really big. The room temperature in winter is 8 degrees and 11 degrees. That is the difference between heaven and hell.
Not to mention the room temperature, the average temperature of Little Ice Age, which caused Ming Dynasty to completely collapse, was about four degrees lower.
The value of troubleshooting hidden dangers is also very high. At least in the future Suiyue, it can reduce a lot of financial expenses.
The key is that the three faults and seven hidden dangers have all been proven to be true.
So the remaining three faults and nine hidden dangers are basically impossible to fake.
So the next day when everyone was checking and repairing, Geng Shou Gong summoned two confidants to discuss the matter.
"This Panda... how should we settle the settlement with him?"
No one can estimate the cost of Qu Jianlei's repair this time. Should all the reduced losses be borne by him? This is unrealistic! Finally, someone made a suggestion, "Just six hundred Silver Coin. No need to add more. At worst, we can let him read books for free."
This suggestion is actually quite good.
Geng Shou Gong Think about it, and in the end it's Diandian's fault, "Yes, books are rare, and we are not lacking in sincerity."
Qu Jianlei has put this matter behind him. He has done what he can do, and there is no need to worry about anything else.
Settlement The heating of residents is really important, but... he lives outside the city! There is a wall between the city and the outside, but the difference is really huge.
At least for heating outside the city, you basically have to find firewood yourself. If the conditions are worse... you can only rely on shaking.
The small team of Qu Jianlei has excellent conditions. They have a mixed engine of oil and Energy Block, but most of the time they rely on firewood.
Claire Before winter, we chopped so much firewood.
So he really didn't care much about the situation in the city. He just wanted to cash in his gains as soon as possible.
He and Hua Xiezhi spent two days selling a large part of the loot obtained from Black Wind.
Although the Universe Six people talk about rules, they are not lenient at all when collecting stolen goods. Even the trucks of the Black Wind team dare to collect them.
Then the two returned with a large amount of water, fuel and ammunition.
After they came back, they were shocked to find that Geng Shou Gong had sent a book. They didn't even ask for a deposit, and they just sent another 300 books.
Qu Jianlei could vaguely guess that this was the subsequent testing fee, and he could express satisfaction with this payment method.
Furthermore, Spencer heard new news: Team Black Wind was attacked, and a reward of two thousand Silver Coin was offered for clues.
This is another time Qu Jianlei was offered a reward, and his reaction was very calm.
"What's that Fu Gui? The reward is only one thousand Silver Coin... Black Wind's losses are serious this time?"
"I heard that Second Boss was maimed and died in the battle," Old Swindler was quite gloating. He believed that the one who attacked him was Black Wind.
Qu Jianlei's attitude was like that of an outsider. He asked in confusion, "After all this, can they still afford the reward?"
"Who can't have some wealth?" Old Swindler said nonchalantly, "Besides, Red Snow also came forward, so I guess he has the whole story."
Then he looked at Qu Jianlei carefully and said, "Um... do I earn fifty yuan Silver Coin?"
Old Swindler is not simply asking for debt. Obviously, he is a little suspicious that Black Wind's loss may be related to the boss Panda.
It is impossible to live to such a long age in Wasteland without some survival wisdom.
"Bringing good news, let me give twenty Silver Coin first," Qu Jianlei said expressionlessly.
"It just so happens that Black Wind is also disabled. It's easier to turn back. I'll go investigate and confirm it before giving you thirty Silver Coin."
It's impossible for him to admit that he did it, but it wouldn't be appropriate to deny it at all.
"That's great," Old Swindler said with a smile, but he was a little confused... The boss was really in retreat a few days ago? But no matter what, it is true to have money. For many years, he has never experienced such a wealthy winter.
"Then I'll go to the tavern to find out more information."
Watching him leave, Hua Xiezhi walked over and asked in a low voice, "This guy... doesn't feel very reassuring."
Qu Jianlei shook his head and sighed, "There are some bottom lines... I still hope to stick to them."
Hua Xiezhi is actually testing to see if the boss is a ruthless person.
The answer was a bit pedantic, but it also gave her reassurance. No one wants their partner to be cruel and ruthless without any limits.
"Can you continue to teach me Tai Chi Thirteen Sabers?"
"You should practice the first seven swords first," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "I'm about to break through..."
