"You are 55 seconds late." Bingshan beauty said coldly.
"Sorry, it's hard to find here, did you bring something?" Li Yao cursed a few words, stretching out his dirty paws.
Si Jiaxue frowned slightly, appraised Li Yao's appearance, felt that she seemed to have made a rash choice, hesitated for a moment, and took out a crystal computer from her schoolbag and handed it over.
"This is the crystal computer. It is very unstable after it is turned on. It crashes within three minutes every time. I went to several repair shops, and they all said that the style is too old, and many components in it have been discontinued. There is no way to repair it. I heard that you are a senior chip fan and are also very good at chip repair. If you can repair it, please ask for any price. Money is not a problem; damage the components inside."
"Let's see."
Crystal brain maintenance is a broad and profound technology, and Li Yao didn't dare to vouch for it, so he took out a pair of dust-proof gloves from his school bag and put it on, before taking the crystal brain seriously.
It is a bit heavy to start with, full of the thick and solid feel of a classical crystal brain. This is an antique crystal brain with a history of at least a hundred years. It still uses a semi-mechanical structure, and there is a triangular button on the spherical surface.
Li Yao pressed lightly, and the crystal brain buzzed and vibrated slightly, as if the mechanical structure in it was operating rapidly. After a few seconds, it suddenly flew out of Li Yao's palm, suspended in mid-air, with two holes up and down. Two beams of light were shot out, one condensed into a huge light curtain, and the other transformed into forty-nine shining runes, forming an exquisite virtual rune keyboard.
"It's simply a work of art..." Li Yao's eyes became extremely gentle.
He recognized that this was the tube crystal brain "Guangling 7" developed by "Tianqinmen" more than 140 years ago.
In the history of crystal brain development, the "tubular crystal brain" has given way to the more advanced "chip crystal brain" in just a few decades, and Tianqinmen is a single crystal brain that has only existed for more than 50 years. This small sect relied on the first generation of "Guangling" crystal brain to succeed, but failed to keep up with the development of the times. In the era when chip crystal brains were popular, they still put all their resources into the research and development of "Guangling 7". In the end, the capital chain was broken and the company was declared bankrupt.
The "Guangling Type 7" is also known as "the last glory of the tube-type crystal brain, a masterpiece".
Li Yao's hands turned into a breeze, dancing lightly on the light wave rune keyboard.
His hand speed is not high, but his movements are smooth and unrestrained, as if he is not tapping the keyboard, but really playing a priceless guqin. Along with his movements, lines of runes appear on the light curtain Commands fell like a torrential rain, and the crystal brain also made very faint abnormal noises that ordinary people could not distinguish as the interfaces were activated one by one.
Li Yao listened intently, his eyes were very focused, and every movement was extremely precise.
After all, the tube-type crystal brain was a magic weapon more than a hundred years ago. Compared with the current mainstream chip-type crystal brain, the structure is relatively simple. After two minutes, Li Yao initially came to a conclusion: "It should be a problem with the heat sink. , leading to an abnormal increase in the internal temperature of the crystal brain during operation—the functions of modern crystal brains are becoming more and more powerful, and the information to be processed also contains more and more spiritual thoughts. For the old-fashioned crystal brains hundreds of years ago, the burden is too heavy Well, it is equivalent to a 150-year-old old man, who bears a thousand catties every day, and it is difficult for his joints to not be scrapped for many years."
"This crystal brain is a relic left by a close relative. It has a very important commemorative significance to me. As long as it can be repaired, I am willing to pay any price." Si Jiaxue said seriously.
Li Yao thought for a while, then nodded and said, "It's a very common chip failure that the heat sink is scrapped, and it's not a big problem. The reason why you went to several repair shops and couldn't fix it is mainly because of this chip. The model is very rare, the technology used is too backward, the heat sink used in it was discontinued a hundred years ago, and the heat sink used by modern crystal brains is not compatible at all-but it doesn't matter, I happen to have a few in my collection that are very Precious antique heat sinks, as long as you try a few more times, even if you scrap a few pieces, you should be able to modify the heat sink suitable for this crystal brain."
"Don't talk nonsense, just ask for a price!" Si Jiaxue heard his implication.
"Oh, between classmates, how much is it hurt to talk about money in a hurry? Anyway, it's not a big problem. I'll take it back to catch up with the time. I estimate that it can be completed in one night. As for the dismantling fee, inspection fee, maintenance fee, cost, assembly fee, etc. Fee plus my cost of production, I will give you a 5% discount, which is 98,500 yuan, do you want to go in cash or transfer?"
"Um?"
Si Jiaxue narrowed her eyes, with a dangerous gleam in her eyes, and the temperature in the utility room seemed to drop ten degrees suddenly.
"Just because I'm rich doesn't mean I'm willing to be slaughtered like a fat sheep, understand?"
Li Yao swallowed his saliva very hard, resisted the low air pressure, and argued: "That's right, compared to ordinary crystal brain repairs, this price is a little bit higher, and you can buy one for nearly 100,000 yuan." Computing power is comparable to the high-level crystal brain of the peak cultivator in the Qi refining period, but your crystal brain has a history of hundreds of years, and it is already considered an antique. Of course, repairing an antique is another price! Don’t talk about anything else, just say I want it The few heat sinks used on this crystal computer are all rare collections that I have spent many years of hard work and painstaking efforts to collect. They are simply priceless treasures! So, believe me, the price is absolutely fair !"
Si Jiaxue didn't say a word, but stared at him with deep eyes.
The spiritual root development rate exceeded 70%, which brought strong psychological pressure. Li Yao felt tense and almost collapsed, but when he thought of his "goal", he still bit the bullet and said, "If Si Jiaxue thinks it is too expensive, you can It doesn't matter, just let me repair it for you for free. You can send this chip to some large repair shops in other places and let them slowly find the heat sink of the corresponding model. I don't think it will take three to five months. I can find one or two pieces in stock, so the cost should be kept below 10,000 yuan."
"Three to five months..."
Si Jiaxue snorted softly. She knew that Li Yao was telling the truth, because the technicians in several repair shops also said the same. Looking for it, three to five months is just an estimate. If you are unlucky, it is possible to wait a year or so.
Presumably, this little rogue also saw this, so he regarded himself as a "fat sheep"!
Forget it, I still have to go to practice, there is no need to get entangled with these ordinary class guys, Si Jiaxue nodded, and said with a blank expression: "Okay, Li Yao, I can give you 100,000 yuan, but the transaction requires There are trading rules. At this time tomorrow, I will see a brand-new crystal brain, and you must ensure that it continues to operate stably. Don’t make mistakes every now and then. I will not pay any follow-up fees except for 100,000 yuan. Is there a problem? ?”
"It's absolutely no problem. After replacing it with a suitable heat sink, it can be used normally for at least three years. During these three years, you can continue to search for the same type of heat sink, and you can replace it regularly in the future." Li Yao said quickly, with a smile on his face.
"That's good." Si Jiaxue nodded. She didn't want to get entangled with this little rascal for a second, so she turned and left.
Li Yao sat down on the glove box, sweating all over his head, and after a long time, he whistled in relief in the dark.
It worked!
With 100,000 yuan, he can go to the "underground ghost market" to buy the illegally produced "Counterfeit Strengthening Potion", and he will have the opportunity to increase the development of spiritual roots by a large amount!
The counterfeit strengthening medicine contains a lot of impurities, and it has strong side effects after taking it, but it is cheap and plentiful. One hundred thousand yuan is enough to buy a dose that can be taken for three months, allowing him to have a certain amount of time in the "hundred-day sprint". Opportunity to refine the spiritual root, reborn!
"If you want to be admitted to the 'Nine Elite Joint Schools', this is the only chance. Even if you are the 'Goddess of the Second High School', I can only kill you. I am so sorry!" Li Yao said "Guangling-7 type "Jingnao stuffed it into her schoolbag, pressed her aching temple, with a faint smile on her face, swaggered out of the utility room.
