Chapter 289 Taking Him as a Pet and Then Enhancing His Healing Skills (Please Subscribe)

"No, your skills are actually more valuable in this era."

Xu Ye's voice trembled slightly with excitement: "Do you know what the country lacks most right now? Precision machinery manufacturing technology."

Wang Feng looked up, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "But... these are all old-fashioned crafts."

"Quite the opposite."

Xu Ye took out the pocket watch that Wang Lei had repaired from his pocket. "The gear clearance of this watch that your brother repaired is even more precise than that of the master craftsmen in our factory."

"This precision machining technology is exactly what we need right now."

Wang Feng took the pocket watch, his rough fingers gently stroking the dial, his expression gradually softening: "You mean these skills can still be put to use?"

"Of course, if you're willing to come with me, I can set you free and even try to cure your brother's leg."

Wang Feng's breathing became noticeably rapid: "Are you serious?"

"Of course." Xu Ye nodded.

He then changed the subject, saying, "However, I need to see your true abilities first. To what extent can your family's inherited mechanical arts reach?"

Wang Feng remained silent for a moment, then took out a few copper coins and some small metal parts from his pocket. With a few quick flicks of his fingers, an ingenious linkage device gradually took shape.

"This is a 'Thousand-Mechanism Lock' passed down from our ancestors," Wang Feng said with a hint of pride.

"Without the key, even explosives can't open it."

Xu Ye stared intently at the gradually taking shape device, deeply impressed.

This level of precision far surpasses the technological level of this era.

"That's enough, that's enough." Xu Ye took a deep breath, thinking about when would be the right time to release him.

It's definitely not possible now; it's too early.

He hesitated for a moment: "Does Wang Lei know about your family's affairs?"

Wang Feng shook his head: "He's still young. I only taught him some basics and didn't have time to talk to him about these things."

Xu Ye understood. It seemed that the Wang brothers' ancestors were likely related to ancient mechanisms and hidden weapons, or even tomb raiding.

However, in the new era, these skills can be put to good use.

After leaving the space, Xu Ye arrived at the door of the next room.

Gently push open the door, and you'll see the boy intently fiddling with a small wooden device, with various homemade tools scattered on the table.

Hearing the noise, Wang Lei hurriedly tried to hide the things.

"Don't hide it, I saw everything." Xu Ye walked in with a smile.

Xu Ye picked up an exquisite wooden device and casually asked, "Did your brother teach you all of this?"

Wang Lei nodded, then shook his head: "My brother only taught me a little bit; I figured most of it out myself."

He said it was useless to say that.

Looking at the gifted child in front of him, Xu Ye couldn't help but smile and say, "How could it be useless? This skill can make a lot of money."

"Come on, I'll take you somewhere." With that, Xu Ye extended his hand to Wang Lei.

Without much thought, Wang Lei followed Xu Ye.

Then, Xu Ye took him to the outer courtyard.

Now, the Foreign Languages ​​Department has been almost completely transformed by Xu Ye.

Currently, I already have a studio, which is over thirty square meters, not small at all.

After the lights were turned on, the studio became bright.

There are some small machine tools here, all of which Xu Ye took out and refurbished himself.

Now that we have a collective economy, it's inappropriate to engage in these kinds of activities.

For smaller ones, you could say you do your own research and make a lock or something.

"I have all sorts of processing tools here. You can come here to work on your things in the future."

Wang Lei happily walked over to the machine tools and stroked the metal.

This is something he can only see in his dreams.

"Brother Ye, can I use all of these?" Wang Lei looked at Xu Ye with his bright eyes.

"Of course, use it as you like," Xu Ye said with a smile.

"Thank you, Brother Ye, I really like these." Wang Lei said happily.

Xu Ye nodded and patted his head.

Then, my gaze fell on his legs.

"Do you want to heal your leg?" Xu Ye couldn't help but ask.

He had an idea, but he didn't know if it was feasible.

"Of course I want to, how could I not?" Wang Lei boldly expressed his thoughts.

He felt that Xu Ye was like an older brother to him, someone he could confide his true thoughts to.

"Here's the thing, I have a special method, but I need your cooperation," Xu Ye continued.

"Brother Ye, you said it, I will definitely cooperate fully. I am not afraid of pain or suffering." He thought the treatment would be very painful.

"It won't be painful, but you need to acknowledge me as your master, just like a puppy, and become my pet."

"Do you understand what this means?" Xu Ye asked, somewhat recklessly.

After all, saying that to someone is an insult.

Especially those with integrity and self-respect.

Those who are willing to be toys are another matter.

"sure!"

"I think you treat Ping An and Da Huang ten or a hundred times better than other people do."

“I’m willing to be your pet,” Wang Lei said without hesitation.

“Okay, I’ll give it a try.” With that, Xu Ye squatted down and pulled up Wang Lei’s pants.

Then, he grabbed his leg with his hand.

"System, use 2 points of hunting attribute to enhance Wang Lei's legs."

[Hunting Attribute -2]

[Successfully enhanced pet Wang Lei's thigh]

Succeeded?
It was so easy to succeed?

Xu Ye gasped inwardly in utter astonishment.

"It's so hot, Brother Ye, my legs are so hot," Wang Lei said involuntarily.

"It's nothing, this is normal. I used Qigong to treat you," Xu Ye said casually.

Qigong is still very popular, and many people are practicing it now.

Therefore, it is acceptable for Xu Ye to claim that he possesses qigong skills.

Hearing Xu Ye say that, Wang Lei breathed a sigh of relief.

He believed that Xu Ye could definitely cure his leg.

As the burning sensation in his legs gradually subsided, Wang Lei tried to move his stiff knees.

The joints, which were originally as stiff and difficult to bend as rusted gears, now felt a long-lost sense of flexibility.

He tried to stand up by bracing himself against the machine tool, but lost his balance and fell forward.

Xu Ye quickly caught him and touched the bulging muscle lines on the boy's thigh.

The atrophied leg completely disappeared and became a normal leg.

He excitedly started walking and found that he was no longer limping and no longer needed to drag his leg to move.

"Nengneng is leaving!" Wang Lei's voice, choked with sobs, echoed among the metal equipment in the workshop.

"Brother Ye, thank you so much. From now on, you are my master." With that, Wang Lei knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Ye.

Xu Ye originally wanted to stop him, but he withdrew his hand halfway through.

The enhancements granted by the system were more powerful than expected, and they didn't require any sacrifice.

All I need to do is get Wang Lei to agree to become my pet. If I had known it was this simple, I wouldn't have wasted so many special attributes to strengthen Huang Sisi and the others.

"Just keep this in mind. From now on, just call me Brother Ye, understand?" Xu Ye instructed.

"Understood, please rest assured, Brother Ye," Wang Lei said earnestly.

"You can't reveal the problem with your leg right away; you need to make it seem like you're recovering little by little."

“Just tell them I’m treating you with acupuncture,” Xu Ye instructed.

After all, the methods were still too fantastical, and Xu Ye felt it was better to be cautious.

"Let's go back and rest first. Your brother should be back in a couple of days." With that, Xu Ye led Wang Lei to rest.

Xu Ye did not release Wang Feng immediately, but planned to do so in a few days.

Wang Lei doesn't need to worry about anything at all.

After Wang Lei went to rest, Xu Ye continued soldering components in his room.

Xu Ye felt that Wang Lei would have no problem doing this job.

However, he never even attended primary school.

Xu Ye felt that he still had to send him to school, at least to university.

In the future, they will definitely become top talents.

He will definitely need Wang Lei in the future.

So Xu Ye felt there was no problem keeping him at home.

Xu Ye thought that Wang Feng was the only one who could be sent to work at the machinery factory.

Right now, he can ask Gu Chen for help to make arrangements; there shouldn't be any major problems.

So Xu Ye worked until late at night before going to rest.

We should discuss the schooling issue with Wang Feng after he comes out.

Only then can Wang Feng express his gratitude.

Otherwise, arranging it now would be a waste of effort.

When Xu Ye woke up the next morning, Wang Lei had already started making breakfast.

Wang Huiyu was about to get up and do it, but Wang Lei persuaded her to go back and rest.

He only needed to cook breakfast for himself and Wang Huiyu, since Xu Ye usually ate at the research institute on weekdays.

After washing up, Xu Ye went straight out.

Xu Ye rode his bicycle to work at the institute.

For the next few days, Xu Ye did not go to see Wang Feng.

Wang Feng was almost going crazy inside; besides food, there was only a toilet.

That's all.

The crucial point is that he doesn't know how his younger brother is doing.

Was what Xu Ye told him true?
He will only know the truth once he goes out and meets his younger brother.

On Saturday evening, Xu Ye did not go home immediately after get off work, but instead rode his bicycle to the suburbs.

In the suburbs, Xu Ye found a place.

This place is perfect for letting people out.

So, after arriving at the location, Xu Ye entered the workshop space.

"Here, put this over your head." Xu Ye handed a bag to Wang Feng.

Wang Feng knew they were about to go out, so he quickly put the headband on.

Then Xu Ye checked him over and tied his hands and feet with rope.

Once that was done, I immediately got him out of the space.

Then, Xu Ye carried Wang Feng on his shoulders.

Then, I walked down the steps and left the abandoned building.

After walking for a while, Xu Ye put Wang Feng down, removed his hood, and untied the rope.

"Alright, I'm letting you out now."

"Come home with me and meet your brother." With that, Xu Ye walked to the bicycle next to him and got on.

Wang Feng hesitated for a moment, then got into the car.

Then, Xu Ye rode his bicycle home.

Two hours later, Xu Ye returned home with his men.

Wang Feng kept memorizing the route throughout the journey.

Because he didn't know the situation, he thought writing it down might be useful.

When he got home, Wang Lei was hunched over the table in Xu Ye's studio, fiddling with a small mechanical device. Hearing the door open, he looked up abruptly, his eyes instantly welling up with tears: "Brother!"

Wang Feng stared at his younger brother's straight legs, frozen in place.

He staggered forward, his trembling hand stroking Wang Lei's once-shrunken right leg. The touch was firm and strong, a stark contrast to the gaunt appearance he remembered.

"How...how is this possible?" His voice trembled.

Wang Lei hurriedly stopped his brother: "Brother, it was Brother Ye who healed me! He used qigong and acupuncture to gradually restore my leg!"

"Incredible! My benefactor, you can actually treat this kind of disease." Wang Feng even changed how he addressed Xu Ye.

Originally, he thought that everything Xu Ye said was a lie.

But when he met his younger brother, he realized that he had been doing very well during this time, and that Xu Ye had even treated his leg.

"Can you walk now? Are you like a normal person?" Wang Feng asked Wang Lei excitedly.

"It's recovered about 70-80%, and it will be fully recovered soon." Wang Lei remembered Xu Ye's instructions, so he concealed part of the truth.

Upon hearing his younger brother's words, Wang Feng turned around and knelt down in front of Xu Ye.

"Xiao Lei, kneel down and kowtow to your benefactor."

As he spoke, he pulled Wang Lei down to kneel.

The two brothers kowtowed to Xu Ye.

“My benefactor, from now on our lives belong to you. We will do whatever you ask us to do,” Wang Feng said with utmost sincerity.

Wang Feng wiped away his tears and suddenly pulled out a yellowed thread-bound book from his pocket: "My benefactor, this is our family's heirloom, 'The Secret Techniques of a Thousand Machines,' which records the secret techniques passed down through generations of our ancestors. I think it's time for it to see the light of day again."

Xu Ye took the book and opened it to the first page. There, he saw an ingenious gear structure, with the words "self-propelled mechanism" written in small regular script next to it. The design was so ingenious that it was astonishing and completely transcended the limitations of its time.

"This..." Xu Ye's fingers trembled slightly, "Who exactly were your ancestors?"

Wang Feng lowered his voice: "My grandfather said that our ancestors were craftsmen in the Ministry of Works, specializing in designing mechanisms and hidden weapons for the royal family. Later..."

He hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Later, I changed careers and became a 'tomb raider'."

Xu Ye suddenly realized. No wonder the Wang brothers' mechanical skills were so exquisite; it turned out to be a royal craft passed down through generations.

However, now it's time to use it for our own purposes.

With these two brothers, things will be much easier from now on.

"Let's go eat first." With that, Xu Ye led them to eat.

Wang Feng will need to stay at home for a few more days.

Tomorrow, Xu Ye can go find someone to arrange work for Wang Feng.

Even a temporary apprenticeship is acceptable.

Once he gets in, with Wang Feng's excellent skills, he will definitely be able to establish himself.

After dinner, Xu Ye called Wang Feng to the studio alone.

"Wang Feng, I'll take you to the machinery factory tomorrow." Xu Ye lit a cigarette and squinted under the light. "But before that, there are some things we need to clarify."

Wang Feng immediately straightened his back: "Please speak, my benefactor."

He felt that whatever Xu Ye said now was his imperial decree, and all he had to do was carry it out.
