Old Man Grant was still sitting on the chaise longue in the doorway smoking, with a pot of tea next to him, and from time to time he would pick up the teapot and take a sip directly into the spout.

"Grandpa Grant, it's humid at night, and lying outside isn't good for your body!" Ling Qi reminded.

"Xiao Qi, have you finished watching the excitement! Grandpa has an old bone, he has experienced a lot of ups and downs, and he doesn't care about this little moisture! That being said, he got up and pulled the recliner into the house.

"It's already night tonight, so don't fix anything, go back and rest early." The old man took the teapot from Ling Qi's hand and persuaded.

Ling Qi said that he was still in good spirits and wanted to go in and find something useful. The little cat woman slept for a few hours in the afternoon, and at this time she was not sleepy, and she followed him in good spirits.

"Then find it yourself, and close the door when you leave!" After the old man finished speaking, he went to the small room where he lived.

Ling Qi pulled the little cat girl into the scrap yard and skillfully turned on the lights.

This is a courtyard house of more than 200 square meters, in addition to the small bedroom of the elderly, there is also a small façade next to the main entrance, and the shelves in it are placed with repaired second-hand items.

Some items that have been confirmed to be recycled as scrap are piled up in the yard, and some of the items that are still worth demolition are piled up in the main house and side rooms.

There was also a small backyard at the back of the main house, and Ling Qi went straight to here, looking at the small sampan placed in the corner.

"Xiaorou, you play next to you, my brother will be busy for a while!" Ling Qi took a chair for the little cat woman to sit on, and then stepped forward and put his hand on the little sampan.

"The damaged sampan was found, the main body was damaged by 28%, the anti-gravity energy matrix was damaged by 35%, the energy output line was damaged by 19%, the control system was damaged by 37%, the thruster was missing, the energy compartment was missing, and the energy block was missing. It belongs to the owner and cannot be bound to the captain's car. ”

The small sampan is three meters long, with an upturned head, a point of 1.5 meters at the widest point in the middle, and a width of about 1.2 meters at the tail.

This is similar to an open-top motorboat on the water, with a simple control system, a windshield in front of the captain's seat, a steering wheel underneath, and four passenger seats behind, each with a small backrest, armrests, and seat belts.

The energy compartment and two thrusters in the tail have been dismantled, and the energy block is even more impossible.

Ling Qi knew that according to the original setting, the captain's maintenance skill could repair devices with a damage level of less than 40%, which meant that he could completely repair this sampan, as long as he found the energy bin, energy block, and thruster to install it.

But he knew that there were no damaged propellers and energy silos in the scrapyard, and that he needed to find another way or buy a second-hand one online.

He trotted out to find Grant and shouted through the door, "Grandpa Grant, can you give me that broken sampan in the backyard?" I can buy with credits! ”

"You don't need to buy it, you can take it if you want!" The old man responded in the room.

When Ling Qi returned to the backyard and reached out to touch the sampan again, the hint he received had already turned into an inquiry on whether it was bound to the captain's car.

"Bind!" Ling Qi confirmed in his consciousness.

A light that only Ling Qi could see swirled around the sampan and him, and he sensed the connection between himself and the sampan, and the sampan seemed to become a part of him, in which the details and performance were completely presented in his mind.

"The binding of the captain's car is successful, and it can only be modified and upgraded after binding, and cannot be changed. Important: The ship is here, the ship is wrecked, please be kind to your car! ……”

Ling Qi was so frightened that he jumped cautiously, the boat was destroyed and people died, there was no such thing in his original setting, he really had to be careful to protect the car in the future!

"Turn on the captain's ride upgrade mode and awaken the only passive ship skill: evolution (automatic modification and upgrade)."

"Evolution: The car has been continuously modified to improve local performance, and when the conditions are met, it can be transformed and upgraded to a higher-level car to achieve overall performance improvement and body change."

"Obtaining twenty cubic meters of space on board can be continuously expanded as the vehicle is upgraded. ……”

The ship skill is a skill that is used in battle with a car, and this upgraded passive skill is a unified setting for all ships. Ling Qi was a little annoyed, he had known that he would cross over like this, so he set a few more passive skills against the sky.

"Fix the energy output system first!" Ling Qi issued an order, and the "Repair" skill was activated.

The sampan's energy output system flashes a streamer, and then a progress bar is displayed, which quickly reads from 0 to 100%, and a message appears that the repair is successful: "The repair target is small, the energy required can be exported from the captain's body energy, and the repair is successful!" ”

Ling Qi felt a burst of emptiness in his body, only to know that this kind of maintenance was to consume energy, which was not clear in his original setting.

"In the future, repairs will be carried out on the hull as much as possible, and the ship's own energy output will be used to supply the maintenance needs." Ling Qi immediately figured out the trick.

The captain's space is ten cubic meters, it does not care about the shape of the objects to be stored, only the volume, and all objects are placed separately, so there is no confusion.

After Ling Qi cleaned up, he loaded the small sampan into the captain's space. He thought that even if he could put the sampan into the captain's space, it would fill up the space, but it turned out that after binding it to a car, the sampan would not be included in the captain's space.

"Woo?" The little cat woman had been quietly watching Ling Qi busy with his work, and when she saw the sampan suddenly disappear, she stared around in confusion.

"Shh Ling Qi made a silent gesture to her, and she realized that her brother had taken it, and her tail couldn't help but swing a few times.

Ling Qi looked at the materials that might be used in the sampan, and then rummaged through a large pile and put them into the ship's space. He knew that the ship needed to be supplied with a variety of raw materials when it was undergoing some major repairs and upgrades.

Based on the amount and price of the materials he collected, he transferred a credit to Grant.

After a few experiences, he has figured out that the owner's items cannot be used in the car without purchase or permission.

By the time it was all done, an hour had passed. Ling Qi saw that the lights had gone out in Grant's room, and knew that he was resting, so he didn't bother, and after turning off the door light at the scrap yard, he took the little cat girl home.

There is about a kilometer from the scrapyard to the small slab house where he lives, and further inside is the center of the town, some large estates of wealthy families.

Ming Lanxing belongs to the new star of remote immigrants, the landform is primitive and the economy is backward, but the technology in this world is very advanced, the infrastructure of the town is very good, the asphalt road is wide and smooth, and the solar lamps on the lampposts on both sides reflect the road brightly.

When Ling Qi was passing by a restaurant, he pulled the little cat girl to eat another supper to make up for the consumption of the maintenance skills he had just used. He also bargained with the boss and packed all the leftover food sold that day at a very low price, and there were at least more than 30 catties in his hand. When he got home, he put the food in the captain's space, where it wouldn't spoil for long.

The prefabricated houses they rented were located between a group of prefabricated houses, which was a cheap public rental house, and of course, it was still a big burden for Ling Qi in the past.

Although it is only a small board house on the first floor, the roof and walls are all solar photovoltaic panels, and the energy is collected and resupplied by the town, so the temperature control in the house is very suitable, and the most basic living conditions are actually not bad.

After they washed, the little cat girl went to bed first, Ling Qi raised her wrist, turned on the Internet function of the communicator, and a virtual touch screen was projected in front of her, automatically detecting and adjusting the distance and bearing, always fifty centimeters in front of Ling Qi's eyes.

He began browsing online second-hand stores in some nearby counties.

After a keyword search, there is a list of product information below:

"Sampan specializes in second-hand energy warehouses, seventy percent new, with 60 standard unit energy blocks, 900 credits, and delivery within the same city."

"The sampan is a special second-hand energy warehouse, fifty percent new, with 90 standard unit energy blocks, seven hundred and fifty credits, and package delivery within the same city."

……

"Sampan specializes in second-hand energy warehouses, three into a new one, 100 standard unit energy blocks, 500 credits, and package delivery within the same city."

The energy block is equivalent to a super battery, but this energy block cannot be charged by itself, and needs to be recycled by a professional manufacturer, which is a consumable. The energy compartment is a device that extracts and outputs the energy of the energy block, such as an engine.

Energy blocks are only suitable for small facilities, such as spaceships and warships, which require medium and high-level energy bins with their own charging devices and reactors.

Ling Qi decided to buy the new one, anyway, if it was damaged, he could repair it, and he believed that the ship would be upgraded soon, so there was no need to buy too good.

The price of the energy block is generally one credit corresponding to two standard units of energy, and one hundred standard units of energy can theoretically drive 10,000 kilometers without a load for a sampan. But the weight has increased, and the energy output is also large, so naturally it won't take that long.

After Ling Qi placed an order, the shopkeeper said that the distance was only more than 100 kilometers, and he could immediately arrange for someone to drive the sampan to deliver the goods, and the goods would arrive in two hours at most, and asked him if there was anything he needed to buy by the way.

Ling Qi was stunned, the service is so good? It's already ten o'clock now, and it's twelve o'clock when I send it here, and most people go to bed early. But the other party is so positive, he is not good at hitting others.

"I need two second-hand propellers for the sampan, and if it's slightly damaged, I can repair it myself!"

"There are no sampans, but I happen to have two sets of air boats, two percent new, the maximum speed output is 2.5 times that of the sampan, and it can be modified to the sampan. Conscience price 1,900 credits, do you want it? ”

"Excuse me, give me a link!" Ling Qi made a decisive move.

The top speed of a sampan is only about 80 kilometers per hour, but the air boat can reach 200 kilometers. The sampan is modified at such a high speed, which is generally not used, and the wind resistance is too great, but it is very critical when it is used to escape in a crisis.

Place an order, prepay. The 3,000 credits I just bought are almost bottoming out, and I am waiting for the other party to deliver them.

Ling Qi glanced at the little cat woman and saw that she was already asleep, so he gently opened the door and walked out of the room, relocked the door, and carefully checked the surroundings.

That guy Ling Fei will definitely do something tonight, and there is no movement at this time, so it is estimated that he will not come until later in the night. He returned to his room, pondering how to further modify his car.

"When the repair is complete, you should be prompted with the requirements for the upgrade." Ling Qi thought for a while, and simply gave up pondering, it didn't make much sense to modify such a rudimentary car.

Two hours passed, and the purchased goods were delivered to the coordinates reserved by Ling Qi, and Ling Fei and the others had not yet come to look for trouble. Ling Qi receives the goods and confirms the payment.

After noticing that there was nothing unusual around, he moved his things back into the house, organized a space, and then eagerly took out the sampan.

"Found a secondary thruster, is it equipped?"

"Found a secondary thruster, is it equipped?"

"Found the sampan energy tank, is it equipped?"

"Found the sampan energy block, is it equipped?"
