Although Shen Mu sometimes seems to be a joke, his professional level is undoubted, otherwise it would not have been possible to have an independent operating range when he first came to the alien planet, and received the rank of second lieutenant, as well as the highest special talent allowance according to himself.

Therefore, Xingyue, who was finally assembled by Shen Mu himself, did not find any problems even if Ji Xinghe personally inspected it. After running to help Ji Xinghe apply for the eleventh generation of the Federation core mecha engine and the alloy shield with impact function, Shen Mu returned to the machine repair area, and cautiously leaned around Su He and asked in a low voice.

"Did Lao Ji take a hammer?"

"Take a hammer?"

"Yes, it was hammered on Xingyue's body."

"Nope."

"That's good, that's good."

Shen Mu, who breathed a long sigh of relief, sighed helplessly: "Lao Su, you said that as a professional mechanic from a serious academic class, why do you think that my ability to repair mecha parts and assemble mecha will be inferior to Lao Ji's wild way?" ”

Su He laughed: "Don't you have the same mentality as those serious mecha warriors, don't you think they can't beat Lao Ji by themselves?" It's normal, because Lao Ji has created miracles. ”

"Yes, Lao Ji has created miracles, more than once."

Shen Mu's first thought was not the battle in which Ji Xinghe broke the three mecha in the canyon, nor was it the almost sweeping in the machine repair area, repairing a lot of parts that needed to wait in line for robotic arms and machine tools, but the ten-kilometer run that Ji Xinghe participated in.

At that time, Shen Mu was also in Azure Star, and saw the whole process through the Internet, running ten kilometers is not a problem for a young man like him, but his physical fitness is already very good, but he can only barely run ten kilometers in 34 minutes, and after running, he wants to collapse to the ground and remain motionless. However, at that time, Ji Xinghe ran ten kilometers, although his pace was slow but very firm, which made many people suspect that Ji Xinghe was not sixty-five years old.

"Don't overthink it." Su He patted Shen Mu's shoulder, and said in a relaxed tone: "Xiao Shen, there are some amazing and brilliant people in every era. They are like the wind at the end of Qingping, and they are achieved in the grass, shaping the extraordinary present with the ordinary past, and writing legends about the future. ”

Shen Mu glared: "Are you adding drama to yourself again, where do you get so many crepe words every day, can't you just say it bluntly?" Do you know that you seem to be very uneducated like this, damaging my image in front of 300 million viewers, in case I can't find a daughter-in-law in the future, can you afford this responsibility? ”

"Uh...... Well, I'll cut out this paragraph. Su He casually told a lie and said: "To put it bluntly, Lao Ji's family conditions are actually quite good, and his living standard has always been very good, otherwise he wouldn't be able to grow one meter nine." The level of education he received is also very good, you have always said that he is a wild man, but the mechanical engineering major he went to in college can also be ranked first in the whole of Longzhou, right? ”

"Seventh." Shen Mu said: "I have checked, Lao Ji's university mechanical engineering major ranked seventh in Longzhou. ”

"Yes, the seventh is already very powerful, after all, our mechanical engineering major in Longzhou is the best in Azure Star, so Lao Ji is actually not a wild road, he is just a wild road in mecha-related aspects." Su He looked at Ji Xinghe, who was leading Ji Rong Xinyue over in the distance, and spoke faster: "But this can't be blamed on Lao Ji, there were no mecha in the world when he went to college, he had no place to learn if he wanted to, and he could only be self-taught after that." ”

Shen Mu watched Ji Xinghe get closer and closer, and said impatiently: "What do you want to say, the point, the point." ”

Su He smiled and asked, "What kind of miracle do you think, what kind of miracle is someone who only has a broken bowl at the beginning, but is able to defeat the heirloom empire?" In contrast, is Lao Ji's starting point much higher? ”

Shen Mu finally understood, nodded in agreement, and then asked, "What about age?" What about physical strength? ”

"Being older means that Lao Ji spends more time studying than others, and his physical strength decreases...... So Lao Ji wants to open a mecha, no matter how good his physical fitness is, he can't compare to the mecha. ”

"Makes sense."

The two suddenly squatted down at the same time, greeting Ji Rong Xinyue who trotted over, after Ji Xinghe came back, Ji Rong Xinyue, who was unwilling to let others hold hands, became cheerful again, and would let go of Ji Xinghe's hand and ran to Xingyue.

Yes, Ji Rong Xinyue ran to Xingyue, bypassing Su He and Shen Mu, who were a little embarrassed, but fortunately, there was a voice of greetings, so it would not be too embarrassing.

"Uncle Su He is good, Uncle Shen Mu is good."

"Shin Shin is good."

"Xinxin, slow down."

When Ji Rong Xinyue looked at Xingyue, Su He stood beside Ji Xinghe and whispered: "Some of the people I have contacted these days have agreed to sell you the contribution points, and some of them have agreed to transfer money to you first, and when the communication is restored after the dust storm is over, I will contact Pei Jing and ask her to transfer your money to these people's relatives." ”

"Okay, thank you Xiao Su." Ji Xinghe did not forget that he still had a sum of money in Azure Star, which was all the wealth he had saved in his life, including the pension that was advanced in advance.

Shen Mu next to him asked curiously: "How much, Lao Ji, you should have saved a lot of money over the years." ”

Ji Xinghe looked at the happy Ji Rong Xinyue, and was in a very good mood, so he patiently replied: "It's not much, there are three million and three hundred thousand in total, most of it is still the money from the sale of the house and the pension, and I actually don't have much saving." ”

Shen Mu was stunned for a moment: "Only three million and three hundred thousand? Your car repair skills are so good, and your salary must be very high, does your boss deduct your salary? ”

"There are no deductions, my salary is really high, about 35,000 to 40,000 yuan a month. When I first joined the work, it was a little lower, only 15,000 a month, but after three months of work, it grew to 23,000. ”

"Then counting the house and pension, why is it only 3.3 million? I remember that the house price in Xinfengcheng is not low, the average price is more than 20,000 square meters, right? ”

Su He frowned and said, "Why are you asking so clearly?" ”

Shen Mu replied confidently: "I'll calculate how much money I can save in the future through Lao Ji." ”

"It's more than 20,000 square meters, and it's sold for almost 3 million." Ji Xinghe didn't mind, and explained: "The money is less because I spend more money, because of martial arts training, I have only eaten beef since junior high school, and I eat it every day, and I will make some medicine and wine after work, plus I will also take some paid online courses when I get off work, and I will eventually feel shallow on paper, and the learning efficiency will be higher if I have a teacher to teach, so I only saved so much money when I came and went." ”

Shen Mu was about to ask, but was interrupted by Su He with his eyes, because if he continued to ask, he would definitely ask about things that Ji Xinghe was unwilling to mention, such as his parents' inheritance, such as Ji Chenxing's upbringing expenses, and so on......

The problem of money is over, Ji Xinghe will have a large number of contribution points, not only from trading, but also from his exploits this time. It has been determined that the contribution points of the eleventh generation engine and alloy shield are the gains captured on the battlefield, not the real combat achievements.

"My body is really fine, let's start the actual test of Xingyue now." Ji Xinghe looked at Xingyue who was standing solemnly, and said with anticipation: "If everything is okay and proves that this design plan is feasible, then you can start upgrading it." ”

The so-called upgrade is to replace parts, with new, better performance parts, to gradually replace those parts made of discarded parts, each replacement, can be called an upgrade.

Why not replace them all at once? Because the cost of mecha is too high, the average cost of the Federation's latest thirty-sixth generation mecha is as high as 67 million per plane, which is still a mass-produced model. The cost of a mecha designed and created separately by Xingyue will inevitably increase a lot, so Ji Xinghe's money is far from enough.

"No problem, I don't have any tasks anyway, I'll help you with this matter to the end. Let's not be in a hurry, upgrade Xingyue little by little, and one day it will be able to exert its full performance. Shen Mu's voice was impassioned, but he didn't have much confidence in his heart, he just asked Ji Xinghe why he had so much money, it was because he knew that Xingyue needed a lot of money to complete all the upgrades.

Su He finally understood, hesitated and asked, "Lao Ji, why don't you contact our TV station when the dust storm is over, and help you take a few advertising endorsements?" ”

Ji Xinghe was stunned for a moment.

"Is that okay?"

"You can try, it's easier than if you go to the battlefield and capture supplies." Su He looked at Ji Xinghe with an expression that I saw through you, and said, "Lao Ji, I know that you are going to do this, but it really can't." ”

Ji Xinghe was silent, as a recruiting mascot, he really didn't have the freedom to go to the battlefield casually, and his granddaughter still needed to be taken care of.

Shen Mu had a different opinion: "Actually, there is another way to complete Xingyue faster. ”

Su He asked curiously, "What way?" ”

"Lao Ji has become an ace mecha warrior, as long as he becomes a trump card, even if Lao Ji wants two stars and moons, the ace has a spare mecha."

"If Lao Ji can become an ace mecha warrior, his capture will definitely be enough to build two stars and moons, aren't you talking nonsense?"

"You just say that Lao Ji has the strength to become an ace, and you say that Lao Ji has become an ace, can you have two exclusive stars and moons?"

"Uh...... Yes, yes. ”

"Am I talking nonsense?"

"It's not."

"Huh."
