Super Craftsman Chapter 196

Chapter 196 - combat boots Completed (2)

In fact, Elder Li was as surprised as when he first met Guo Tailai.

When Guo Tai learned how to make shoes from him, Elder Li was still smiling. If a promising man like you learned how to make shoes from me in front of your master, Old Liu would probably scold him in a few minutes for biting off more than he could chew!

He didn't expect Elder Liu to watch him with a smile. He didn't have the slightest intention of criticizing him, as if he was even encouraging him. Was he not afraid of destroying his disciple?

In the end, after two days, Elder Li almost told Elder Liu to give Guo Tai up to him. Guo Tailai's performance was truly weird. All the experiences and techniques he had accumulated in his life were all learned by him within two days.

A pair of shoes, made by Elder Li on the left and Guo Tai on the right, he couldn't tell them were made by the two of them at all.

It would be alright if Elder Liu could not tell, but the problem was, even Elder Li could not. He took his right foot over. If it wasn't for Elder Li seeing Guo Tai doing it with his own eyes, he would have thought he was hallucinating.

Although Elder Li had already retired, he had not been idle these past few years. His skills in making Space Boots were not lacking at all, but he was old after all, and his stamina could not keep up. Strictly speaking, when this pair of shoes was made, Elder Li was already slightly exhausted.

Luckily, Guo Tailai didn't let Elder Li make a move. Even if Elder Li wanted to, he wouldn't agree. He would just let Elder Li watch by the side and give him pointers.

For the first pair of shoes, Guo Tai Lai was still imitating Elder Li's movements. These shoes were made by Guo Tailai according to the size of his own shoes. He always wore them himself to experience their feel. By the time he made the second pair of shoes, he had already made some minor adjustments to which parts of the soles were not particularly comfortable, which parts of the heads were hard and which parts were slightly softer.

Amidst Elder Li's stupefied expression, Guo Tai Lai began to make a second pair of shoes. This time, he did not keep his hand speed anymore. All kinds of cutting techniques were natural and natural. With a single slash, he did not even need to draw any shape to get the right size. All of the cutting techniques were extremely precise. Guo Tai Lai easily passed by where the skin was sewn and where Elder Li needed to keep his hands steady. It was as if the skin wasn't solid at all but was made of tofu.

Even if it was close enough, Elder Liu wouldn't be able to tell. Guo Tai Lai didn't need to pierce with the awl at all. He could easily pierce a hole as big as he wanted, as long as it was within 5 mm.

So was the needle. It was shockingly precise. Elder Li was afraid that Guo Tailai's shoes wouldn't have the same shape and length, but Elder Liu had never thought that there would be such a problem. What a joke! How could an expert with two hands in a ring that could accurately hit 1 micron make such a low level mistake?

He watched Guo Tailai's hands move, and before he knew it, one of his shoes was finished. Elder Li held the shoe in disbelief as he inspected it from top to bottom, taking out the zeal of testing space boots. He tossed and turned for more than an hour, but still did not find anything wrong with it. When he put down the shoe, Elder Li realized that the other shoe had already been completed.

Elder Li was shocked. How could this be? Looking at his watch, it hadn't been an entire morning. A pair of handmade shoes, from the soles of his shoes to the upper of his shoes to the inside of his shoes, were actually all completed in less than three hours?

"In the beginning, I wasn't very familiar with it, but the speed was a bit slow. Elder Li, do you think I could still wear it?" Guo Tailai put a pair of combat boots in front of Elder Li for him to check again as he said apologetically.

"You call this slow?" Elder Li was speechless. Seeing that Elder Liu had no intention of reaching out his hand from the beginning to the end, it was only now that he understood why he wasn't worried about his disciple going astray. Wasn't this guy's learning ability simply heaven-defying?

Director Li finally felt relieved, drinking tea with Elder Liu while watching Guo Tai work. Elder Li sighed with emotion.

"Sigh, this combat boots is really good, but it's too expensive!" Elder Li was an expert shoemaker, how could he not estimate the approximate price of these materials? Just by looking at the waterproof, breathable, and superior lining, you can tell that it has to be imported from the United States. There were also bulletproof materials, high-quality leather, and craftsmanship. If this pair of shoes was sold for a few thousand yuan, that would be a very reasonable price. They would only earn a little money for the materials and not for the craftsmanship.

However, with Fatty's skills, could the cost of the ingredients be compared with each other? Fatty really wanted to take it. When these boots were exported to other countries, a pair of $3,000 was cheap.

In his heart, he felt comfortable that the fatty was making boots for our soldiers. He felt uncomfortable that these boots were too expensive, as the soldiers definitely couldn't afford to wear them! It would have been fine if they were only a few dozen astronauts in the spaceship department, but if they were assigned to millions of soldiers, they would be slightly lacking in strength.

"Don't worry, Fatty will come up with a design. When the time comes, let the professional shoe factory see where the cost can be reduced." Elder Liu had already understood that if it wasn't for Zhao Yanyan, they probably wouldn't even have seen such boots. As long as Fatty did not make a move, there would definitely be a lot less manpower. He would do his best to find cheaper substitutes in the materials and could still bring down the price.

"That's the only way." Elder Li could only sigh with emotion. As a retired old man, he could make shoes for others, but he was powerless when it came to general policy.

Just as Guo Tailai had said, he moved faster and faster. It seemed like Fatty was getting more familiar with this place. Six pairs were produced in a single day.

Two days after Elder Li and Old Liu returned home, Guo Tailai finished making the 50th pair. 's shoes alone, had four pairs of Winter Boots and two pairs of Summer Boots. The other adults also had four or five pairs of shoes each.

"Uncle Zhao, where is Senior Sister's address? I will send it over to her." After Guo Tai Lai finished, he immediately called Zhao Xiangbei.

"Wait." Zhao Xiangbei did not directly answer Guo Tai Lai's address, but asked him to wait after he found out where he was.

Half an hour later, a car pulled into the yard. When Zhao Xiangbei and Lu Zhiming got out of the car, without saying a word, Zhao Xiangbei immediately asked, "Where are the boots? Give me a pair and try!"

Guo Tai Lai looked at Zhao Xiangbei angrily and speechlessly, he obediently took out two pairs of pills from the room. One for Zhao Xiangbei and one for Lu Zhiming.

"Move the rest to the car. I'll send someone to deliver it." Zhao Xiangbei instructed Guo Tai Lai. Then, without caring about whether he was being rude or not, he took off his leather shoes on the spot and switched them with the combat boots s.

Lu Zhiming also did the same, he immediately took off his shoes and equipped them with combat boots s. After standing up, he stepped on it and walked a few steps forward. Then, he smiled and said, "Oh, it feels so much better."
