"You're that thief!" Ah Xiu exclaimed, and she immediately felt embarrassed after screaming, so she hid behind Li Yan with a red face and didn't dare to 'show' her head.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, my 'girlfriend' friend has never seen the world and can't speak. Li Yan hurriedly said for Ah Xiu.

"It's nothing, I did steal something yesterday, are you going to rent a house?" the young man waved his hand indifferently and said in Mandarin with a distinctly Western accent, his face was covered with blood, and his eyes were a little blue.

"Yes, the big 'door' says that there is a rent here, can we take a look?" asked Li Yan.

"Of course, welcome. The young man opened the big door and made a gesture of please.

Li Yan took Ah Xiu and walked into the courtyard, this is a small courtyard, the ground of the courtyard is paved with a layer of green bricks, two tropical trees with wide leaves dappled the courtyard with sunlight, a red brick two-story building is located in the courtyard, whether it is the dilapidated building "door" on the first floor, or the rusty corridor iron railing on the second floor shows that this small building has been many years.

Li Yan and Ah Xiu went up to the second floor under the leadership of the young man, and the young man took out a bunch of keys to open a room and said, "Can you look here?"

It is a one-bedroom house, the outside room has a table and a coffee table, cement floor, and it is very clean. Li Yan and Ah Xiu walked into the room inside, there was a large "bed" with only one "mat" mattress, a mirror hanging on the wall, and nothing else.

"It's okay, but there is no bathroom and kitchen, and can you provide us with a set of 'bed' supplies, we can't sleep directly on the 'bed' mat. Li Yan said.

"The toilet and bathroom are on the west end of the second floor, and now no one rents them here except me, and I usually live on the first floor, so the toilet and bathroom are equivalent to your exclusive use. If you want to cook, I can provide you with a gas stove, utensils, and "bed" supplies for an additional fee. The lad added.

"Ah Xiu, what do you think?" Li Yan turned his head and asked Ah Xiu beside him.

"It's up to you. Ah Xiu said.

"Okay, let's rent here. Li Yan said, and after speaking, he turned to the young man and said, "Let's talk about the rent, if we can, we will rent it." ”

"$500 a month, utilities are free, gas stoves and utensils are added another $50 a month, and bed supplies are $30 a month. The young man said.

"Okay. Li Yan nodded, although it was a little expensive, he didn't plan to live here permanently, and he didn't lack this money now.

"Well, you can go down with me and pay the rent. Full text without ads," the lad said.

Li Yan and Ah Xiu followed the young man to the young man's room on the first floor to "pay" the rent, and Li Yan was attracted by the things in the room as soon as he entered the "door". The young man lived in a large house of three rooms, with four computers and all kinds of electronics, and all kinds of wires stretched like spider webs.

"Well, can I know what your name is?" asked Li Yan, who was now very interested in the young man.

"My name is Steve Ross, you can call me Steve on the fly. The young man replied.

…………

"Steve, can I take a look at your computer?" After Li Yan 'paid' the rent, he was not in a hurry to leave, he was very interested in the computers in Steve's room.

"Lee, you know how to use a computer, too?" asked Steve.

"Well, a little bit better. Li Yan nodded.

"That's great, I've finally found someone who speaks a common language with me. Steve said happily as he turned on a computer, and in less than ten seconds, it was turned on.

Li Yan flashed a line of English prompts when the computer was turned on, and it was clear that Steve's computer was not equipped with the usual Microsoft DOS "operation" system, but a "operation" system that he had never seen before.

"Steve, can I know what kind of 'operation' system your computer has, it doesn't look like DOS, it doesn't look like UNIX?" asked Li Yan.

"This is my own '' system, DOS is just rubbish, Unix is good, but it's not for me, so I wrote my own '' system. When Steve talks about his "" system, there is a strong confidence in the expression on his face and in the tone of his voice.

"Lee, I call this system a ghost, because it's like a ghost that can come and go in any computer in the world that is connected to the Internet without being seen, including satellites in the sky. Steve proudly introduced that all technology maniacs have a "problem" and like to sell their own works, and Li Yan estimates that Linus, the world's No. 1 hacker who is still at the University of Helsinki, also put his Linux on the Internet for everyone to use for free because of this psychology.

"Can you get on the Internet here?" Li Yan asked in surprise, you must know that when he was in China, because he couldn't access the Internet, many of his plans had to be postponed, but now this Steve gave him a surprise, he never thought that he could still use the Internet on Shuanglong Island.

"I couldn't have been, but with this one it's fine. Steve stood up, and he went to another table and picked up a circuit board full of electronic components and a long antenna.

"With this, I can connect to the U.S. military satellite through my computer, and then connect to the U.S. Internet through the satellite. Steve stroked the circuit board, and his expression was so focused, as if he was not touching a circuit board, but his lover's soft skin.

"Where did you buy this thing?" asked Li Yan, but in his opinion, it looked like it was completely hand-welded.

"Lee, do you look down on me like that?" Steve asked with an indignant look on his face, pouting.

"Did you do it yourself?" Li Yan swallowed and foamed, he had a hunch that he had met a genius, and he was a genius who was proficient in both software and hardware.

"Of course I did it, but I don't know how to produce the blocks and components above, and I 'spend' a lot of money to have people bring them back to me from outside the island. Steve said, and then he happily pulled Li Yan to another table in the room, on which were some unfinished circuit boards that were only one inch square and some LCD screens.

"I've been working on this thing for the rest of the time, and I'll be ready with a few more manifolds, and the guys who give me the goods are so dark that they charge me five hundred dollars for one delivery, and I really can't take them out so I want to steal them. Steve said with a look of frustration.

"Can you tell me what you're doing here, maybe I can help you. Li Yan picked up the LCD screen and looked at it and asked.

"I'm making a small wireless LAN terminal, and when I'm done, all these terminals can automatically form a LAN, and people holding this terminal can send text to each other, talk to each other, and display the location information of all terminals connected to the LAN on the screen. Steve said triumphantly.

Li Yan listened to Steve's introduction and was shocked, isn't this the prototype of the unorganized LAN that did not appear until after 2ooo years, and he immediately realized Steve's huge business opportunities and strategic significance.

"Steve, I can give you money to buy enough parts to study this thing, but I have a request. Li Yan said.

"Whatever you want, as long as you can make this thing, you can ask for anything. Steve asked, his eyes lit up, he had been paying attention to the black bag he was carrying for a long time when Li Yan was "paying" the rent.

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't agree, I'm just interested in what you're studying and the 'manipulation' system you wrote, so I can study this thing with you. Li Yan smiled.

"That's fine, but you have to prove your abilities, and I don't know what anyone can understand. Steve looked at Li Yan suspiciously.

"How can I prove it?" asked Li Yan.

"Come here. Steve returned to his computer, and he quickly called up a blue-green ** and said, "I write a program that resides in memory, and you just have a way to get it out of memory, and it proves that there is at least no problem with the program." ”

"Okay, but you'll need to give me some time to familiarize myself with your 'manipulation' system. Li Yan said.

"That's fine. Steve said.

"Okay, this is for you to use first, and then ask me if it's not enough. Li Yan took out a stack of US dollars from his black bag and put it in front of Steve, he still had at least ten stacks in the bag, and there were also a large number of gold bars of greater value, which were enough for Steve to use, and Li Yan was very happy to use other people's money to borrow "flowers" to offer Buddha, and he was not distressed at all.

"Lee, is this money for me?" Steve asked, pointing to the money on the table.

"Yes. Li Yan nodded.

"Oh, Lee, you're so good, I love you so much. Steve suddenly stepped forward and hugged Li Yan and kissed him on the face.

Li Yan hurriedly pushed Steve's "fat" body away, wiped the saliva on his face and said, "Steve, what are you doing, I'm not interested in men." ”

"Don't worry, Lee, I'm not interested in men either. Steve laughed.

The two glanced at each other, punched each other's chests, and then laughed, which was probably how Ziji Boya felt when they first met. Ah Xiu, who had been standing in the room watching the two of them silent, also laughed, adding a bit of "spring" and "color" to the room.

"Li Yan, come, let me tell you about my 'operation' system. After laughing, Steve couldn't wait.

"Don't worry, I still have some things in a while, let's come back when I'm done. Li Yan waved his hand.

"Yes, yes, you just came, I was in a hurry, I'll go and get you the 'bed' sheet and bedding. Steve said.

…………

After a lot of busyness, the room on the second floor was cleaned up by Li Yan and Ah Xiu.

"Ah Xiu, this is our home for the time being until we leave. Li Yan looked at the clean room with a clean window.

"Li Yan, this is our home. Ah Xiu also nodded, her eyes were a little moist, how far away the word home was to her, and it was something she never dreamed of to have a home with the person she loved.

"Ah Xiu, you go out to buy some vegetables and cook for a while, and when I come back, I'll go out to do something. Li Yan said.

"Well, you go out and stay safe, I'll be waiting for you here. Ah Xiu tidied up Li Yan's clothes and said softly.

"Got it, I'm leaving. Li Yan hugged Ah Xiu, and then turned around and went out.
