Lindsay Smith recently took on a big order.

Of course.

According to the boss, the buyer did not place an order, but needed her expert consultant to study it on the spot, but the boss still took it seriously, because it was a giant - the Shelby family who placed the order.

This is a family that has recently risen.

As long as it's someone in the Birmingham area, there's no one you don't know.

Merely......

"It's too remote, isn't it?" She couldn't help but complain to her boss halfway through.

You must know that Birmingham is not particularly safe and secure, and the location shown by the other party has to go to a deserted area.

"What do you care so much about? It would be nice to be able to make money. The boss was also weak in his heart, but he still beat his spirits, "I heard that the Shelby family relies on means to get to power, and it is difficult to ensure that some secrets cannot be exposed, remember, wait for a while to pass, keep your mouth tight." ”

"Don't be intimidating......"

"Lindsay, I'm not going to scare you." The boss is also a distant relative of Lindsay, so he talks casually.

But the casualness at this time still made Lindsay realize the solemnity, and she had to nod: "Okay." ”

Fortunately......

It wasn't too long after the conversation.

The car stopped.

It still looked like there was no one in the suburbs, but there were five or six cars parked in front of them, and when they saw them coming, one of them greeted: "It's also mechanical?" Well, Wilson, it's you! ”

"Roberts? Why are you here too? "Wilson is exactly the boss's last name.

Lindsay followed and got out of the car.

Watch the boss chat with the group.

Seem......

They are all manufacturers related to machinery manufacturing and automation, and they are not employers, but sellers who have been called over.

"Did the buyer tell you exactly what to do?"

"No, just ...... on the ground"

"Seems to have something to do with cooking?"

"Yes, I guess, they're interested in the gas stove, and there's also a vegetable cutting machine...... Ha! I feel like they've got the wrong person......"

Cook?

Lindsay suddenly thought that there seemed to be a "universal cuisine" chain restaurant under the Shelby family, maybe it was really cooking.

"Don't be cranky, he's coming." Boss Wilson pointed to the front left.

It was a sedan that drove slowly.

After the car stopped.

A very beautiful blonde woman rolled down the window and said to the crowd, "Get in the car and come along." ”

"Okay Miss Daisy." A group of people knew the blonde woman.

Hearing this, he nodded and bowed.

Get in the car and follow.

Lindsay also followed Wilson into the car, but before getting into the car, she vaguely saw that the woman named Daisy seemed to have a small figure the size of a finger in the palm of her hand, as if she was still moving.

What is it?

A new type of moving Barbie doll?

In the future, I may be able to buy one for my niece......

I don't blame Lindsay for being cranky, it's just that the process is too long and boring, and I always feel difficult to do if I don't want to do something.

But immediately her attention shifted.

Because......

The group followed Daisy's car, and it didn't take long for them to enter a residential area—Wilson didn't care, but Lindsay was startled!

She'd been looking around just now.

in this direction.

There's no such town!

Am I observing wrong?

It shouldn't be...... How could such a big town not notice?

Lindsay muttered to herself, "Strange ......"

As soon as the words came out, Wilson also said, "It's very strange. ”

"You think so, too?" Lindsay looked at the boss.

"Yes! You see, it's strange in this town, most of them are dressed in this kind of retro clothes......" Wilson pointed outside.

The corners of Lindsay's mouth twitched.

What the two said was not the same thing!

But.

She followed and looked, and then found ...... It's true, this town seems to be lost in time, not only the various houses are ancient and weird, but even the clothes of the townspeople are all kinds of robes and pointed hats......

"It's like a witch in a TV series!" Wilson concluded.

"But there are still men's ......"

"That's why it's strange, how can a man wear a witch's suit?"

Lindsay rolled her eyes: "Scots still wear skirts!" I'm a woman, have I said anything? ”

"You won." Wilson grinned, "It's time to get off." ”

Oh, man!

Change the subject!

Lindsay stepped out of the car and quickly passed through several machine shop owners, looking at Miss Daisy from before, and the black-haired boy with Miss Daisy holding her arm.

It's handsome!

Lindsay sighed with emotion and couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and at this moment, the black-haired boy also looked over, and her clear and confident eyes made her feel excited.

"Hello, my name is Ringo Shelby." The boy held out his hand, "You're the technical advisor of Wilson's Machinery Factory?" ”

"Yes, my name is Lindsay Smith." Lindsay also hurriedly shook hands.

She didn't dare to think nonsense.

Because she felt that Miss Daisy next to her seemed to be watching herself—could she think that she was seducing her brother? Well, it's supposed to be a younger brother, right?

"Go inside." Ringo said, "Melissa, you take them through the steps and think about how to assemble the machine, Daisy, here ......."

"Yes."

The blonde young woman next to him walked over and smiled at Lindsay, then led the owner of a machine factory inside.

Ringo and Daisy, on the other hand, went in the other direction......

Lindsay was a little curious.

But the blonde young woman had already hooked up with her.

Between the words, Lindsay knew the other party's name, Melissa Tagwood, is a pharmacy researcher, and his task is to integrate general equipment and add some numerical control equipment to automate the pharmaceutical processing process through the systematic sorting of various pharmaceutical processing processes......

Frankly.

It's not that hard.

Because according to Melissa, the preparation of potions here is almost like stew, paying attention to knife work and heat, and theoretically there is not much technical content.

- Although there are very few cooking machines in the world.

That's because people prefer to look for the unique taste of different chefs rather than the same mechanical taste, and the more upscale this feature, the more significant it is.

Therefore, small restaurants have no money for machinery and equipment; Big restaurants don't bother to do this......

I just didn't expect it.

Shelby was going to do this.

- Such a little bit of technical content is still hidden, and before coming, I was told by thousands of people to see nothing and not to make a fuss.

What's all the fuss about this?

Lindsay frowned, stole a glance at boss Wilson, and gave the other party a look - that's it?

Wilson shrugged his shoulders and whispered as Melissa went to open the door, "I heard that the Shelby family didn't go to college, so they may be relatively short-sighted, so—oh, Fack! ”

"What?" Melissa was stunned, not understanding what the connection between the scolding behind the boss and the short-sightedness in front of her.

Wilson raised his hand: "Look at the ...... ahead"

Lindsey looked over.

Then she saw that the others were as stunned as Wilson.

And in front of them.

Melissa was smiling at the corners of her mouth: "This is the processing of materials. ”

Material Handling?

Lindsay's gaze swept over Melissa and landed on the "employees" in front of her, and then she understood why Wilson was stunned.

I saw a few employees in "witch suits".

Holding a stick in his hand.

Between the swing of the stick.

The odd materials—teeth, stingers, powders, and things like that—would float up, and then the knives on the side would fly up and start cutting or scraping.

Fack!

She couldn't help but curse in her heart.

What is it?

How is this done?

Magic?

Or is it high-tech?

In an instant, all kinds of thoughts converged in Lindsay's mind, and she finally understood the reason why the Shelby family was hiding it, and the feeling was not that others were less knowledgeable, but that she was short-sighted!

"Don't be shocked, it's just a special kind of technology, well, technology, it should be this word......" Melissa introduced, although the last sentence was very quiet, but soon she raised her voice, "A kind of magnetic technology, okay, this is some material processing, the front is an automatic cleaning ......"

She walked on again.

The crowd followed.

Then Lindsay saw the broom, the pot, the brush that cleaned itself...... Even if there is a fire, it is not a flip of a switch, but someone with a stick and a wave, and the stove will immediately start a fire.

Of course.

And that's not all.

There are even some special creatures!

It's supposed to be a creature, right?

It is ball-shaped, covered with creamy yellow soft hairs, constantly humming and moving under the feet of the person.

Originally, Lindsay thought it was just a special toy ball.

But who knew that one of them was caught.

Pull down a handful of hairs.

It seemed to hurt, but the thing struggled and stuck its long tongue into the man's nostrils, rolling off a piece of booger with nose hair......

"What's, what is this?" Seeing this scene, Lindsay finally couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, it's called Fluffy, it's a pet, and their fur can be used to make laughing potions." Melissa was very conscientious, and after explaining, she asked, "You've almost finished reading this, Miss Smith, do you have a plan in mind?" ”

"Huh?"

What's the production plan?

Lindsay was addicted to all kinds of strange things, and didn't think about doing anything at all, and now when she heard the inquiry, she immediately panicked, but fortunately, it was not a difficult task, and she immediately said: "I need more accurate data, such as how much some materials need to be processed and how many degrees are needed to boil...... I'll need to talk to someone else about it. ”

"That's as it should be, the conference room is there, you can discuss there."

Katsa!

When a group of people entered the conference room, the door was immediately shut.

That Melissa didn't follow up.

But this scene.

But it made everyone's faces look ugly:

"This is definitely not technology, I don't believe that human technology has developed to this point!"

"Is this a special means, witchcraft? Magic? ”

"Shhhh

"The door is locked!"

"It's no accident that this Shelby family can suddenly rise."

"Let's hurry up and get to work, if they want to automate the machine, they will definitely let us go, or where will they get the machine?"

"That's right, let's get to work......"

With a hint of panic, Lindsay still buried herself in her work.

Actually, it's still a little difficult.

Because what the other party wants is not a lot of machines, but an integrated machine.

For example, when it comes to handling materials: this machine can be divided into different gears, but it must be able to handle all types of materials – of course, the requirements can be relaxed, for example, this machine is dedicated to handling knife materials and another machine is dedicated to handling liquid materials.

But even so.

Lindsay, who only relied on hand calculations and drawing, still found it very difficult.

"I, I need information, it's in my car......" she suddenly looked up and spoke.

This quieted the room.

It seems that everyone can realize that this is a test of whether they are being monitored...... But as soon as this thought came to mind, they heard a cry of "information flying" from the door.

The next moment.

The door opened.

The black-haired boy Ringo and the blonde beauty Daisy walked in, the former also held a stick in his hand, and with a slight wave at this time, he controlled the thick pile of documents and materials in front of Lindsay: "How is it handled?" Is there any difficulty? ”

It's absolute magic!

Lindsey stiffened, but still had the courage to say, "Not only the material, but also the common equipment model to integrate the ......"

"What does it look like?" Ringo sat in front of her.

"That's it." Lindsay was suddenly less frightened by the young man's gaze, and couldn't help but open his information book, revealing a machine and equipment, "That's it." ”

"I'll take ......a look," Ringo said, taking a closer look at the parameters in his hand, and then suddenly pointing at a chair with a stick, "-"change form"

Crash!

The chair immediately twisted, turning from wood to steel, and then gradually to the appearance of the device.

"How's that?" He smiled.

But the bosses of the other machine factories were so frightened that their faces turned white.

It's Wilson.

At this time, he also kept giving Lindsay a look - he now regrets coming here very much, and only hopes that Lindsay, a distant relative, will not mess around.

Pity.

Lindsey didn't notice the look in his eyes.

Instead, he stared at the equipment that Ringo had conjured up, tried to control it, and found that it could really be used, and couldn't help but say, "It's really amazing, you can use it." ”

"Then arrange it as soon as possible." The young man still smiled, "If one day is not enough, then two days, rest assured, the guest room, meals, and even a change of clothes are prepared for you, if there is a lack of other things, you can also say." ”

"Don't be so troublesome, just half a day, after all, it's just a grass eucalyptus." Lindsay didn't seem to hear the threat from the teenager's mouth, but instead indulged in his profession and became confident.

"You talk more."

"Okay."

……

Half a day later.

After completing the sketches and verifying the boy's use of "magic", the Shelby family didn't seem to kill or imprison them as expected.

Instead, they honestly sent it out.

"Thank you for your cooperation, I just hope to improve the equipment as soon as possible after I go back......"

A reassurance from the blonde beauty Daisy.

In addition, they were indeed sent out to let them go back, and everyone was obviously relieved, and they were embarrassed one by one:

"Oh, Miss Daisy is polite, let's go back and do it immediately, no one else's affairs will be left behind, and the custody will serve you first."

"Rest assured, we are united, and the speed is definitely not slow."

"Who dares to slack off for Shelby......"

“……”

Lindsey was also in the crowd.

When she was done, she felt a strong sense of absurdity - this is going to let us go?

Not to mention captivity......

Even the confidentiality agreement has not been signed, so those "secrets" of the Shelby family, aren't they afraid of being leaked?

Even if they are confident that they are the hegemon in the Birmingham area.

But what if we go somewhere else?

What about going abroad?

Aren't you afraid that we'll poke it out?

Thinking so, she subconsciously looked at the black-haired boy Ringo, who was still holding the wooden stick in his hand......

It's a pity that it's just right again.

Without waiting for her to look more, the other party also looked at herself, and in the time of the exchange of glances between the two, Ringo blinked.

And then.

The young man said: "Okay, everyone, thank you for your efforts and cooperation, rest assured, give us Shelby service, the treatment will definitely not be bad......"

Between words.

The stick in his hand waved inadvertently.

Then his voice turned.

- "Forget it all"

- "Regents"

？？？

Lindsay's face was dazed, and she felt as if her memories were being replayed in her mind, but other than that, she didn't feel any discomfort.

It's just that I'm more confused in my heart - what is this Ringo Shelby going to do?

She thought.

But the next moment.

Wilson, who was next to her, spoke: "Oh, Mr. Shelby is so good, invite us to a big meal, invite us to a sauna, and give us all kinds of Shelby's discounts, it's really great, I decided to work as soon as I go back, and never disappoint Mr. Shelby's expectations, Lindsay, you have to work hard!" ”

"yes, it's the first time I've seen such a good buyer, no wonder Shelby has risen up."

"Goodbye, beautiful Miss Daisy, handsome Mr. Ringo."

"It's a beautiful day, and I swear I'll remember it for the rest of my life, and I'll do my best to provide Mr. Shelby with the best quality machines."

"Phew, obviously the best ...... in my family"

"My family is!"

"What's the noise? It's our honor to serve Shelby, even if it's noisy, how can we argue in front of Mr. and Miss? ”

"My fault, my fault, sir, miss, please forgive me, I'll leave ......"

Crash.

In Lindsay's surprise that she almost collapsed, Wilson pulled her into the car, saying "it's so cool to take a sauna", while starting the car and slowly leaving the town.

Sauna?

When did we go to the sauna?

Lindsey wanted to ask.

But when he thought of what he saw and heard today, he was immediately silenced, and then grinned and echoed: "Yes, the sauna is so refreshing......"

……

watched the group leave.

Ringo still stood still, staring at Lindsay Smith's car, speechless.

"What's wrong?" Daisy asked.

"Nothing." Ringo suppressed the strangeness in his heart, "Communicate with that Smith more, I think she is a talent." ”

"Okay." Daisy hesitated for a moment before nodding, "You're not going to take a fancy to her, are you?" ”

Syllable!

Ringo reached out and tapped on her tail vertebrae.

Didn't speak.

Daisy immediately blushed, "Did I say the wrong thing?" ”

"Or else?"

"Then do you want to punish my sister?" Daisy blinked, "Our car is right next to ......"

"It's better to ...... on a helicopter"

"Helicopters? I won't drive it! If there are outsiders, I won't let you touch ......."

Syllable!

Ringo slapped her again, and said angrily, "My dear beautiful Miss Daisy, please clear your mind of yellow thoughts, I am going to Diagon Alley in London to talk about things." ”

"What's the matter?" Daisy was disappointed.

"Acquisition of a pharmacy ......"
