Chapter 96 Inspiration
In the view of the project manager, Purficott is just like an aristocratic lady with a very powerful family.
Although she may indeed be rich and her family is very powerful, she seems to have nothing to do, so she should be easy to persuade.
Although he has never dealt with girls of this age, the project manager is still full of confidence. After all, even women older than Purficott are easy to deceive in his opinion.
Especially for those rich and wealthy wives, she often believes whatever you say without needing too much words.
Like most women in this era, they don't understand anything and whatever men say is what they say.
However, when the project manager and engineer brought their design drawings to Perfectcott and spent almost three minutes explaining it, trying to explain how much cost and construction period could be reduced by doing so, the answer they received was But it was a rebuke.
"Out of respect for you, I wasted three minutes listening to your explanation, but all I got was a so-called design plan that made me look like a fool?" Maybe it was because of Purficott? She had accumulated a lot of irritation in the research and development of new steam engines. After the two people in front of her were noisy for three minutes, she finally couldn't help but get angry: "You used the used port warehouse drawings to fool me because you think I am not good enough." Do you know that the drawing in your hand was drawn three years ago? And how dare you assume that this warehouse made of wooden boards can meet my needs?
Who gives you more confidence than a royal? Chartered engineers know how to construct better? Get out now with this pile of waste paper! If you can't complete the construction of the material distribution station according to my drawings before winter, I will build all of you into the wall!"
In Purficott's rage, the project manager and engineers were thrown out of her laboratory.
Although the project manager wanted to explain something, the two knights guarding the door directly blocked him and called several guards to drive them away from the White Gem.
After being thrown onto the dock by the guards, the project manager and engineer got up in embarrassment, picking up the drawings on the ground and complaining dissatisfiedly.
However, the engineer only complained about the rudeness of the guards, while the project manager complained more about Purficott's ignorance and unreasonableness.
However, the engineer suddenly said: "Manager, please say less! That girl is not simple, she has the badge of Royal Chartered Engineer on her collar."
"Royal Chartered Engineer? Are you sure you read it correctly? How could a teenage girl be a Royal Chartered Engineer?" The project manager looked suspicious, then turned to look at the White Jewel with a look of disbelief.
"When I was in college, a professor had one. I looked at that badge for four years. I could recognize it even with my eyes closed. It was unmistakable!" the engineer said with certainty. , seems to be very sure about this: "I have always longed to get a Royal Charter Badge in college, but the professor said that it is impossible for me to get it in my life.
Because the Royal Charter Badge requires the Imperial Engineers Association Granted, it is impossible for the colony to obtain that badge."
At this point, the engineer touched the badge on his collar, showing an expression of reluctance and regret.
His badge is just a technician badge. Although it is very good, it is still far from the royal charter badge.
When the project manager saw this, he also showed a surprised expression, but then he seemed to have remembered something and said: "Do you still remember the "Engineers Weekly" the company received two months ago? It published An article about is said to have been written by a thirteen-year-old genius girl..."
"I remember that it was said that she was seeking a position as a professor in the Alchemy Department of Langdon University. I was still sighing at how amazing the talent in the empire was... Do you think she is the Miss Brandless?" The engineer also thought of himself. After reading the article, I felt excited to see my idol. But soon he fell into annoyance again, beating his chest and blaming himself: "I didn't expect she was Miss Brandless! If I had known earlier, how could I have used such a shameful thing to desecrate her eyes! ”
Obviously, a technician engineer took his own design and told a Royal Chartered Engineer that his design was better than hers. This behavior is like a primary school student saying that he Knows more than a university professor.
Although this engineer is not a primary school student, Purficott is truly qualified to be a university professor.
She did get such an opportunity, she was just not hired because of gender discrimination.
The project manager looked at the engineer's annoyed look and said nothing more. After silently helping the engineer clean up the drawings scattered on the floor, he said to him: "This time the construction will be carried out according to that drawing. Remember to copy it later." One copy, the company can use it for publicity next time."
"Is this... Miss Brandless going to be angry?" The engineer was a little worried. After all, this kind of thing is not impossible, but it still needs to be done. Consider the consequences of offending a Chartered Engineer.
"Then find a way to please her! The design of a Royal Chartered Engineer, what a good selling point!" The project manager was already excited, and his face no longer showed the dejection he had just been thrown at, but instead he was excited. Be mentally prepared to implement the new plan immediately.
The engineer's persuasion was fruitless, so he had to return to the construction site with him holding the drawings, but he was also thinking about Perfectcott's design.
He planned to study it carefully. After all, this was the design of a Royal Chartered Engineer, and he would never have the opportunity to come into contact with something of this level.

On the other side, after having people throw the two unlucky guys out, Purficott’s emotions were finally released.
"Grandpa Afu, make me a pot of black tea... No, let's prepare a pot of coffee. I need a refreshing drink." Purficott ordered to Foster.
Foster followed the order and soon brought her a pot of fragrant coffee.
Perfect poured himself a cup. He wanted to drink it directly, but after taking a sip, he chose to pick up the sugar cubes that came with him and threw two pieces into the coffee. cup and stir.
Just looking at the spinning coffee, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind.
This made her couldn't help but slap her forehead, and said angrily: "Why did I forget this! If I use this, wouldn't it just work with the high-pressure steam generated by heavy water!"
