Chapter 34
Monica's mention seems to be only beneficial to her, and without spending a little bit of her own thing, she can exchange Shang Si for them to kill the Zerg for her and keep the entire province stable; And Shang Si and the others not only have to work hard to search for and deal with the Zerg, but also make money to buy equipment by themselves, which is really a loss.
But in fact it is not. As the CEO of Anxing Province, Monica of course has to protect the safety of the people under her rule; And Shang Si and them, as border troops, it is their duty to kill the Zerg, even if there is no Monica's request, they have to deal with the Zerg.
Because of poverty, Anxing Province has very little fiscal revenue every year, and these limited taxes also have to be invested in industries that need to burn money, such as medical care and education. At this stage, although the frequency of the Zerg has increased, Sheng Yue asked all localities to hide this situation from the people, and rashly use the people's livelihood funds without giving a reason, regardless of whether the money can be brought out or not, Monica, the CEO, will be the end.
Therefore, to solve the Zerg, we have to rely on the self-reliance of the people on the front line of the border army. Of course, this is also based on the fact that the number of Zerg is small, and if there are too many Zerg, they will not be able to destroy them by themselves.
Although Monica can't provide money directly, she can at least solve the problem of money by providing money-making tasks; And Monica can provide a source of weapons, which actually gives a lot of convenience to border troops like Xiang Shangsi.
Money may not be able to buy suitable weapons and equipment, some equipment parts, in the ordinary market is simply not available, Shang Si he does not know any arms dealers, the money earned can only buy some energy supplies. But now that Monica is here, he can use the money in his hand to buy weapons and equipment that require special channels to get his hands on.
After meeting with Monica, the two of them left separately. The Raven still had a shipload of ore on board, and they had to hurry up to send it, otherwise the freight would not be earned, and they would have to pay liquidated damages.
Thankfully, nothing else happened along the way, and after transporting the ore to the large mining ship that stayed at the supply point, Shang Si received a crystal card.
In the command room, a room of people stared at Shang Si, their eyes shining.
Yan Kou: Shipboard Weapon Upgrade ......
Arnold: New parts for the ship......
Bowen: New medical device ......
Doremi: A sparkling card......
Well? Wrong! Doremi, do you just think that crystal card is shiny and beautiful?
Shang Si glanced at the four people coldly, and then spit out two words even more coldly: "Energy!" ”
As soon as this word came out, three of the four people suddenly turned from full of antiquity to despair.
Well, no matter how important they feel they are buying something, the energy of the ship can be ahead of these things. Without energy, the ship can't fly, what else do they need to do.
"It's scattered, what should you do?"
Yan Kou waved his hand and turned to walk outside. Arnold looked at Jingka and couldn't walk, and finally Bowen snorted, and he reluctantly followed Bowen away.
Only Dolemi was left in front of Shang Si.
Like a golden retriever, Doremi stared at the crystal card.
Shang Si helplessly wanted to support his forehead.
"After the transfer is completed, the crystal card will be yours."
Dolemi left happily.
……
It wasn't Shang Si on duty today, and after he finished handling the business, he walked to his room.
On the way, I met Xiaodi.
Xiao Di is the cleaning machine qì man who was bought back by Dolemi from the supply point and smuggled onto the ship, with a barreled body and two machine qì arms, and four pulleys under the barrel body.
There used to be a cleaning machine on the Raven, but it was completely broken down recently, so Doremi brought a cleaning machine on board to solve the problem of unmanned cleaning of the spacecraft.
It's just that Dolemi has nothing to do, so he tosses and transforms the small machine. At first, he made a clean machine into a safe, and after being punched in the face by Arnold, he began to reinvent it. This time, he loaded the smart program on the cleaning machine, and Xiaodi was born.
Xiaodi, an intelligent cleaning machine made by two goods.
However, I don't know which code Doremi wrote wrong, turning a cleaning machine who used to serve the people honestly into a terrible obsessive-compulsive disorder.
On the first day, Xiaodi cleaned the canteen spotlessly.
The next day, Xiao Di cleaned the unlocked part of the spaceship.
On the third day, Xiao Di connected to the main control computer of the Raven and finished upgrading the program, so he went to crack the door code, and then went in to clean up.
Xiao Di didn't go to a secret place like the command room, but Xiao Di went into the room where they used to rest on the spaceship, like Shang Si!
Yan Kou slept in the house that day, he was busy debugging the equipment until late the day before, and he was so tired that he didn't pay attention to it, he didn't wash his feet the night before, and he was born with stinky feet, and he took off his shoes and smoked the house like a gas bomb.
Yan Kou was sleeping soundly when he suddenly felt his body shake. He opened his eyes in a daze, and in horror he came to the entrance of the ship's garbage bin, and Xiao Di was holding him up to throw it inside.
Unfortunately, he woke up too late to prevent himself from sliding down the garbage chute into the garbage bin.
The garbage bin can only be opened from the outside, Yan Kou has no choice but to ask for help, Arnold was on duty that day, and he almost died of laughter after knowing this, and then in less than half a day, Yan Kou's deeds spread throughout the Raven.
Then Doremi's other eye was also blue, and with the one that Arno had typed, they made a pair.
There was a strong demand for Doremi to change the program.
Huang Mao scratched his head: "The program modification has been blocked by me, and I can only upgrade it independently, if I manually modify the program, Xiaodi will break it......"
All:......
There was no way, so everyone had to agree to Xiaodi's behavior of continuing to go in and out of the room to clean. They have a cleaning machine on the spaceship, and if they don't want to live in the garbage, they have to do it.
Oh? Why don't you buy a new machine?
Do ^_^ you pay?
……
"Hello Captain." Xiao Di stood in front of Shang Si, holding her arm in a saluting gesture.
Shang Si returned the favor.
"Are you going to clean up, little di?" Shang Si asked.
"Yes, Captain!"
Shang Si: "Good job." ”
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Even if it is the sound made by the machine, you can hear the excitement in it. Although Xiaodi does not have an expression system, Shang Si can see that it is full of energy.
After Xiao Di left, Shang Si also planned to go directly to his room to rest. But before the door could be opened, he saw Xiao Di using his mechanical arm to carry a roll-shaped long object out of a room not far away.
Shang Siyu didn't care when he saw it, since Yan Kou's incident, everyone went to bed after taking a bath.
Then, Shang Si saw the end of the quilt roll move, revealing one foot. The big toe of that foot touched the cold air, moved, and shrank back again.
Shangsi: ......
Xiaodi, who are you going to throw again!
……
Shang Si stared at the roll in front of him.
Xiao Di had just left the place very unhappy, and it didn't understand why the captain it had always admired wanted to stop it from throwing out the garbage.
But Xiaodi is a good soldier and will follow the orders of his superiors.
After Xiao Di left, Shang Si was looking at the quilt roll that had been put down on the ground.
Do you want to open it?
Shang Si is thinking......
What if it's a poisonous gas bullet like Yan Kou?
Or don't open it......
At this time, the quilt moved, and the head with messy hair stuck out.
"Huh? How has the room changed? ”
Shang Si ......
It turned out to be Yan Kou's friend, Yi Xiao.
At this time, Yi Xiao also saw Shang Si, he rubbed his eyes and crawled out of the scroll.
"May I ask what happened?"
Shang Si was so embarrassed.
Does he want to say, you are being treated as garbage by our cleaning machine and want to be thrown away?
He still wants to compete with this mecha master!
"Oh, Lao Xiao, how do you lay the floor in the corridor? New hobby? Yan Kou's voice rang out.
I have to say that Yan Kou's arrival made Shang Si breathe a sigh of relief.
"You're a fan of flooring!" Yi Xiao replied, "I was still sleeping in my room just now, and I don't know why I was here when I woke up." ”
When Yan Kou heard this, he also wondered, "What's going on?" Haven't you heard that the Raven is haunted? ”
Shang Si couldn't listen anymore, and interjected and said, "Xiaodi was here just now." ”
Yan Kou was stunned for a moment, then pointed at Yi Xiao and laughed.
"You have a cleanliness fetish today!"
"When I was on the same team with you back then, you were hypocritical, and if you didn't take a shower for a day, it was like killing you! Back then, you still hated my stinky feet! Come on, let me smell it, are you hungry now? ”
"Fuck off." Yi Xiao scolded, but he was also frowning at the smell of his body.
"But you're awake." Yan Kou said, "One sleep is a day and a night, and if you say that if you don't wake up, I will call a doctor." You said that you are a retired person, why do you work so hard! Chasing a zerg for three days and three nights, you are not afraid of death from overwork. ”
Yi Xiao didn't bother to take care of him, picked up the quilt and walked to the room.
"I'll send a set meal later." Yi Xiao said as he walked.
"You commanded your subordinates!" Yan Kou said angrily.
He was answered by the sound of the door being shut.
Yan Kou was indignantly ready to get a set meal for Yi Xiao, but he was stopped by Shang Si after he had not taken a few steps.
"Wait until you're done with the meal, come over to the captain's room."
……
After Yan Kou finished delivering the package to his old friend, he went directly to the captain's room to meet Shang Si.
"Yi Xiao, who the hell is it?" Shang Si asked straight to the point.
Yi Xiao's mecha piloting skills are so superb, if he served in the army, Shang Si would not have heard his name.
And this person also went to investigate the Zerg after retiring, if it was an ordinary person, he didn't need to do it at all.
Yan Kou pondered for a moment, then said, "I can't say his true identity. ”
Isn't it really an ordinary person?
"Why?"
Yan Kou: "For many reasons, but I can guarantee that he will not do anything dangerous to Shengyue." As for his investigation of the Zerg, it was because he had also discovered the anomalies of the Zerg. ”
Although Shang Si trusted Yan Kou's assurances, he couldn't let someone of unknown origin stay on the Raven for too long. He also felt that this person named Yi Xiao was not a bad person, but he was responsible for the safety of the entire Eighth Detachment.
Alas, it's a shame that I didn't get to compete with the masters.
Shang thought about it, but said to Yan Kou with a cold face, "Let him leave tomorrow." ”
Yan Kou was silent for a moment and nodded.
