Chapter 14 - Learning Arts (Part II)After an agreement was made to continue tomorrow, the two of them separated at the entrance of locksmith"s workshop. One went home, the other returned to the dormitory.
When they returned to the dorm room with the two bags of instant noodles, everyone was stunned when they pushed the door open.
"Fatty, didn"t you say you wanted to lose weight?" Liu Yang and Fatty Tie immediately questioned: "Why are you eating instant noodles so late at night again?"
"Don"t mention it!" Guo Tailai felt sore all over and said lazily, "I had breakfast early in the morning and haven"t eaten anything yet."
After pushing open the door and entering, only then did everyone notice the exoskeleton seat s on the fatty"s body. Liu Yang was startled again: "What"s wrong? A splint? Another fall? "
"My product." Guo Tailai was too tired to care about anything else, so he moved the chair to a comfortable position in the middle of the room and sat down.Everyone"s eyes lit up when they saw Guo Tailai walk and sit down anytime. The big bro in the dorm had already gone back to bed. He didn"t care about anything else as he jumped down and surrounded Guo Tai Lai along with Liu Yang and the other four.
They were all from the seminal system and the mechanism of the exoskeleton was not that complicated. It was just that the exterior design was a bit more modern.
"Fatty, how did you think of this?" The eldest being a bookworm, he couldn"t help but pat Guo Tailai on the shoulder and ask excitedly.
This was the second time he was asked this question. Guo Tailai patted his stomach lazily and said, "Because I need it desperately!"
"En!" Four of his roommates, two, three, and four all agreed with Guo Tailai"s reasoning. There was indeed an urgent need for a three hundred jin of weight.
"Say, do you have any hot water? Hurry up and get me some noodles." Guo Tailai was so hungry that he almost moaned, "Who wants to play? I"ll trade hot water for it!" As soon as he finished, Guo Tailai changed his words again. "No, I"ll trade the noodles for it!"
"Alright!""Yes!"
There were four or five consecutive sounds, but none of the b.a.s.t.a.r.ds helped with the noodles. They all surrounded Guo Tailai and started to eat.
"h.o.r.n.y!" Guo Tailai was shocked. These guys weren"t trying to get away from him, they were trying to rip him apart. He hadn"t been wearing much in the first nine months of September, and these guys had almost stripped him naked.What was even more infuriating was that all of them were talking nice, but they were playing with the exoskeleton seat and no one helped him get instant noodles.
He pointed his middle finger at the four animals and struggled to eat the noodles. Fortunately, there was always hot water in the boss"s thermos at night. It wasn"t as hot or as cold as the hot water in the pot.
"Hehehe!" Guo Tai Lai soaked himself in the bowl of rice and started to sneer at the four disloyal guys.
The size of this exoskeleton seat was Guo Tai Lai"s, which meant that Liu Yang could still be compared to it. As for the other three, each of the components were big, so it was impossible for them to wear it.
Finally, after the lights were turned off, the commotion stopped. Everyone lay down on the bed and slept until dawn.
The next morning, when Guo Tailai went back to the locksmith"s workshop, the unique equipment on him attracted a lot of people"s attention."Fatty, go and save the money first." Elder Liu also came early, but he did not hurry the fatty to teach him stuff. Instead, he handed over the fifty thousand left from Wan Manager to Fatty.
Whether it was the Director Li or Elder Liu, they did not have any intention of getting the money and gave it all to Guo Tailai.
Guo Tailai didn"t hold back. What he earned from his labor was perfectly justified. He took the money and went straight to the Xi Lan Yuan, where he deposited thirty thousand yuan in the bank, filled up the remittance slip and sent twenty thousand yuan to his family, then called Guo Jianjun to inform him so they wouldn"t misunderstand.
He did not dare to tell the truth. With two crankshaft making fifty thousand, who would believe it? He could only say that someone else had bought her patent of exoskeleton seat. Fortunately, when he was at home, he drew a map and said that he wanted to register the patent.
In the next few days, Guo Tai Lai learned from Old Liu. Within four days, he learned 99% of Old Liu"s manufacturing skills.
Without a choice, with the help of nan.o.bot, Guo Tai Lai"s basic skills were solid. Basically, he only needed Elder Liu to give him pointers on ways and means, as well as ideas.
Up till now, Elder Liu could only bring out his most adept a.s.sembling abilities. However, skills in this area were not something that could be used anytime and anywhere. Elder Liu could only explain some theoretical experiences first so that Fatty could remember them and then wait for the opportunity to do so.
Guo Tailai did have a way, but didn"t the workshop have two old machines? As a souvenir, Guo suggested, wouldn"t it be perfect to dismantle the 1933 old Rhine machine tool, rea.s.semble all the parts except the bed, a.s.semble them back, practice working on the workpiece, and practice a.s.sembling?
Elder Liu was moved when he heard this, but that wasn"t Elder Liu"s personal item. He had to discuss it with the director in the factory, he couldn"t make the decision on his own.
Guo Tailai finally relaxed after four to five days of continuous study. He went back to his dorm early and enjoyed the happy and leisurely life of a fifth year student.
Fatty was really relaxed. He had already finished his work, had drawn the blueprints, and had gone to the patent office to fill out the application form. As long as the patent inspection was approved, he could register for it. In the fifth year of university, there was only a few papers left. Don"t be too happy.
These days, Guo Tailai and his exoskeleton seat had become the school"s star. Many people knew that this fatty was wearing a set of "high" armor. Guo Tai Lai was too busy to explain, leading to many interesting rumors.
Some people guessed that the fat guy had broken his bones, so they used this frame to hold him in place. Some people guessed that the fat guy"s lower limb muscles had shriveled and needed support. In short, all sorts of rumors were causing these students of the seminal system"s cla.s.s to die from laughter.
"Fatty, someone said today that you may be a polio victim, so you have to rely on a support frame to walk normally." That night, Fatty was playing cards with a few animals in the dorm. He was bare-chested. His boss was swinging his cards and teasing Guo Tailai.
"Sigh, your mouth looks like it belongs to someone else. You can say whatever you want to!" Guo Tailai gave up trying to defend himself.
"Excuse me, does Cla.s.s 21"s Guo Tailai live in this dorm?" While the several people were playing cards and bragging, a light knock on the door and a pleasant voice sounded.In the early autumn of September, when the weather was still hot, the dormitory door was not closed at all. When everyone heard this, they turned around and their eyes lit up.
At the entrance of the dormitory stood a slim and graceful beauty. The beauty wore an indescribably beautiful smile on her face as she looked at the five animals in the dorm who were not wearing their clothes.
