Chapter 57 Dark under the lights
Like other shops located in Xingyun Market, this robot shop named "Shadowless Lamp" seems to be pieced together with sundries. The crowded door and long, narrow and deep body are like being surrounded by the "Western Star District" on both sides.
A poor thing caught between a "gun shop" and a "private entertainment store". A shadowless lamp with nearly a hundred bulbs hung above the head of the store. It was probably hung crookedly, and all the light was wasted on the two-story roof.
, it was bright there, but the facade that really should have been illuminated looked pitch black.
"Hey, that's not enough, there are twelve steps in total." Mr. Jin scratched the back of his ears with his hand, and directly stepped forward to push the door open under Xiaoxiao's gaze. At that moment, Xiaoxiao thought that the poor front door of the store was about to be opened with brute force.
After Xiaxiang Xiaoyu died, I didn't expect Mr. Jin to show amazing tenderness, which only made the door moan softly, like a coquettish person.
"Mother-in-law, a mistress has come to our door."
The little fox's eyes widened. He thought hard and finally came to his senses. "Mr. Jin, do you know this store? If you know it, how can you say bad things about it?"
"I work here. Isn't it the duty of every employee to speak ill of the boss?" The big monkey showed a wicked smile.
"Your smile now is much more natural than before." Xiaoxiao couldn't help blurting out, and then quickly waved her hands: "I have no malice, and I'm not saying bad things. Don't take it to heart."
"How could it be!" Mr. Jin lowered his head and bent down, carefully squeezed into the door, and then stretched out his big hand from the door and hooked: "Do you still want to finish your work?"
The little fox swallowed hard and bravely walked in - after entering, he was no longer afraid. Judging from the display and goods inside, this was indeed a place for robot business, not a black shop that captured small animals and slaves.
Various shapes, old and new, and strange robots are placed on the counters like dolls in a toy store, from the floor to the ceiling, extending from the door to the deepest part of the store. These robots stand on their feet and hang down.
He raised his hands, tilted his head, and looked at the little fox with square, round, and triangular eyes. There was no light in the eyes. Each of them had a sign hanging on their chest, using printed compound evolutionary human language to describe the purpose of the robot and
The price. The little fox took a look and found that none of the robots here seemed to be for sale, only rent and compensation were listed.
"Mother-in-law? Mother-in-law! Oh, you're there! I didn't see it just now." Mr. Jin's huge body completely blocked the little fox's sight. It darted left and right but could only see a vague outline. "There are customers.
Here you go, the kind who can pay for it."
"It should be the kind you can't bear to fight, right?"
Judging from the voice, the woman who said this must be very young and cannot be called "mother-in-law". Sure enough, with the patter of footsteps, a slim beauty walked over. She put her beautiful
The body is hidden under the fiery red dress, the face is hidden under the black gauze, and the hands are protected by black gloves. All over the body, only the shoulders and long arms are exposed. The skin color is like snow, smooth and tender like lotus root, which is attractive.
Xiaoxiao was mesmerized after seeing it. Her eyes were stuck in a pair of swinging white long arms and she couldn't pull them out. She only felt that her mouth was dry and her heart was beating fast.
Suddenly, a huge butt appeared in front of Xiaoxiao, saving her from the hallucination. Mr. Jin sniffed, flexed his four fingers, turned his wrist, pointed his thumb at the woman, and introduced the little fox:
"Hey, this is Granny Ming. Just call her boss. Don't you want to buy a robot? Don't be stupid!"
Taking advantage of this brief interruption, Ming's mother-in-law casually picked up a white cloak from the seat, put it on her shoulders, and covered her arms. She walked behind the counter at the entrance of the store and sat on an old creaking table.
On the wooden chair, he pressed the button with his finger, and a "Open" neon light flashed on, casting a colorful light into the store. After that, the atmosphere in the room became much more relaxed, and Xiaoxiao no longer felt flustered.
.
"Mother-in-law..."
"You can't call me this. Just call me Boss Ming."
"Oh..." Xiaoxiao felt as if she had suffered a serious loss, but she didn't know where to start. She tried hard to concentrate, then came to the other side of the counter, climbed onto the high chair, and tried to lift her head to the counter.
Above. "Boss Ming, I am looking for a robot that can dive and salvage. The best is a humanoid robot, or one that is no larger than an ordinary person."
"Are you talking about ordinary people like you, the raccoon star, or me, or the stone-like monkey head next to you?"
"Use you as the standard. If you are as small as me, it's okay. As long as you don't use me as the standard for strength. Mr. Jin's size is the upper limit and he can barely use it, but I don't want to take that risk. I need to succeed once.
"
"I have a deep-water robot. I used it to clean fish tanks twice before, and then it was thrown into the warehouse. Monkey, go check out shelf No. 94. It should be there." Boss Ming's black veil turned to the little fox,
Black Glove dialed the numbers on the abacus in front of him, and then said: "The rent per day is 50 computing power coins. If you want to remove the memory card, add an additional 2 computing power coins."
"Memory cards are not that expensive. As usual, they come with a data clearing operation."
"That's an old model of robot. The memory card is not easy to match, and I don't have many, so I have to charge extra. Little guy, I have all old models here, and I can't bear to throw them away. I want them to be old-age, but
They are still thinking about us two guys who need something to eat - especially the monkey who is very good at eating. There is no other way, we still need to go out to work."
"If you want to charge these 2 computing power coins, then you have to provide the cable. You cannot charge extra for other accessories - the premise is that the robot must be easy to use."
"The robot has been to the ecological ocean chamber and cleaned the mud and feces at the bottom of the bilge. There is no other place on the entire starship with water eight thousand meters deep. Little guy, the cables are all ready-made, a total of nine thousand meters.
Mi, I will also rent you a standard console for free. But to be clear, if you use it for more than one day, the console and cables will be rented, which means an additional charge of 5 computing power coins per day."
Xiaoxiao nodded, and then immediately said: "If your robot is not easy to use, and it breaks down and delays my use, you will be responsible for compensation."
"Oh, if the robot breaks down, I will compensate you for the monkey." As soon as Boss Ming finished speaking, there was a sound of thunder and banging from the back room, which was obviously Mr. Jin's anger. "Haha, it's not willing yet? It doesn't matter.
, It doesn’t matter, it won’t affect.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Jin grabbed the ankle of a chubby metal robot with his big hands and dragged it over, placed it on the ground, and then threw the sign with the explanation to Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao raised her hands to catch it, but was stopped.
A black glove intercepted the sign midway. Boss Ming grabbed the sign, took a look at it, and threw it into the trash can. Mr. Jin snorted.
"Some of the instructions above are wrong. I will directly access the robot's information for you. You can just look at the projection."
The little fox was deeply suspicious of this. The rental price on the sign must be less than 50 computing power coins per day, and the wrapped female boss wanted to ask for more money.
The holographic projection equipment on the counter shows the parameter performance of this round submersible robot, which is quite suitable from the introduction. Other models of robots in the Shadowless Lamp Robot Rental Store cannot withstand eight thousand meters of water. After all, this is a starship, not an ocean.
Work platform.
The little fox had already decided on this robot, but he bargained hard with Boss Ming. The two of them talked back and forth for more than half an hour, and the rental price was reduced by 2 computing power coins, and then Boss Ming returned the offer.
Mr. Jin was also sent out. The big ape’s task was to complete the required work on the remote-controlled submersible robot on the shore, so as to avoid disputes over operational issues. For this purpose, he had to pay 7 more computing power coins, and the little fox agreed.
In the end, both parties were happy and reached a rental agreement. The little fox left a deposit of 30 computing power coins. Boss Ming needed one day to finally inspect and maintain the robot, so it was agreed that the mission could be carried out as soon as tomorrow and the maximum wait would be ten days. If because
If the robot fails to complete the task, then Boss Ming must return it and compensate another 30 computing power coins.
The two sides high-fived each other, and the little fox finally let go of one thing. It was very proud now, thanks to the good idea of using a robot! If everything goes smoothly, then it will use 60 computing power coins to complete the job that was originally budgeted for 1,000 yuan.
.Since it was still early, it wanted to stay and chat with Boss Ming for a while, and learn about this mysterious beauty. But after chatting for a few words, Boss Ming suddenly called Mr. Jin and asked him to "go out and deal with it."
"Here it comes again? I really don't have a long memory." Mr. Jin scratched his ears and picked up a thick iron bar hanging next to the shelf, but only took half a step and put it down again. In this delay, the door of the store opened
After being roughly pushed away, a huge snail's head squeezed in, and the eye stalks on the top of its head scanned around.
Boss Ming shook his head and said in a nonchalant tone: "Don't look for it. I don't have a robot with such an advanced shield here. I've told you this several times and I still don't believe it. They are all old guys here and they can't learn.
It’s a new thing, and it’s only for rent, not for sale. You can order robots from other places!”
The Snail Star man stretched out his two hands and held a display screen, which read: "You said no, we have to check."
"Okay, they want to check, then check them." Boss Ming waved to the little fox: "Come to my side quickly, the wind is lighter."
What does this have to do with the wind? While the little fox was still thinking about saying hello, he suddenly found himself blown to the ground by a strong wind, as helpless as a fallen leaf. While rolling, he vaguely saw Mr. Jin suddenly appearing in front of the Snail Star Man.
He raised one arm and then waved it down. The snail man raised four hands to defend, but it seemed that none of his hands was of any use. Mr. Jin only waved his arm, but the little fox clearly heard the continuous sound.
:
Making love……
The Snail Star was beaten and paused. Oh, the professional term is that it was beaten into a stiff state, and the whole body was stiff and unable to resist. Then, Mr. Jin kicked the Snail Star Man, kicked it out of the room, and kicked its back.
In the shell, it can be regarded as a complete service from room to room. At this point, Mr. Jin still refused to give up, followed out, raised his arm and slapped him again:
Boom boom boom boom boom boom…
The little fox never realized that the back shell of the Snail Star could make sounds like gongs and drums, nor did he expect that the huge, powerful and heavy Snail Star was like plasticine in front of Mr. Jin. He could not fight back regardless of whether it was flat or round. It opened wide.
Before he could even express his admiration, a pair of hands came to its armpits, gently but firmly lifted it up, and lifted it back to the chair.
Boss Ming brushed off the non-existent dust on the little fox's round helmet with his hands and said to the outside: "Pay attention to the impact."
Mr. Jin snorted, loosened his tail wrapped around his waist, hooked the handle and closed the store door. Then there was another sound of snapping and banging outside. The little fox also heard the sound of laser weapons firing, and he knew
It didn't belong to Mr. Jin, so he was worried and immediately looked at Boss Ming.
"Oh, don't worry. Listen, it's still buzzing, which means it's very good. Nebula Market has always been like this, and you need to have a fist. It turns out that when the compound evolved people were still worried about this, the situation would be more convergent.
