Interstellar Favorite Superstar

Chapter 9: bet

Views:

Hayden's appetite surprised Su Tan's family, but Su Tan was even more surprised that Hayden knew more than that.

He can repair small household dishwashers, fertilize and take care of the flowers and plants at home, and even give suggestions on the color matching of colored cloth schoolbags sewed by the robot Suning.

This almighty appearance made the robot dad sigh, and privately said to Su Tan: "If Hayden is not too thin, he would be a good husband candidate."

Su Tan: "..."

Obviously, in the eyes of the people on Planet Gelia, Hayden's tall and slender figure is not up to the standard of being strong and fat.

Su Tan hugged Abba tightly, and said with a smile, "Abba, you think too much."

He took the wrench to the backyard, and there was a private small starship hidden in the middle of the lush woods. At this time, the engine on the right was completely disassembled, and a tall man was bowing his head to repair the damage.

Su Tan handed over the wrench and asked curiously, "Can you fix it?" Just looking at the appearance, the damaged engine was completely smashed to pieces.

Hayden took the wrench, without slowing down, with a local specialty spicy cigarette from Gelia in his mouth, and squinting at Su Tan with a smile in his eyes. "A bet?"

Su Tan couldn't help laughing. "Sure, you can bet. But, big cousin, you still owe me a space necklace. What do you want to bet this time?"

The smile on Hayden's lips was leisurely. Although he fell from the interstellar space due to an accidental spaceship crash, he had a lot of good things around him. He casually took out a bracelet from his bosom and clacked it on Su Tan's neck. on the wrist.

Su Tan was a little surprised. He lowered his head and saw the gleaming bracelet on his wrist, studded with precious stones, which was almost dazzling under the sunlight.

He was dumb for a moment, looked up and explained to Hayden: "I was joking just now, it's too precious." As he spoke, he hurriedly rolled his wrist, trying to take off the bracelet.

However, Hayden raised his hand to stop him, with a stick of cigarette between his fingertips. The cigarette butt burnt out a long length of ash, trembling in the air a few times, and then fluttering down on the gemstone bracelet in Su Tan's sight.

Su Tan: ... Violence!

Hayden put out the cigarette, continued to repair the starship calmly, and said with a smile, "Take it, it's a gift from someone else, it's for nothing."

Suddenly, Su Tan felt as if he had discovered some great secret. His eyebrows were slightly tangled, and he asked, "Where is your army?"

Want to learn how to repair starships, take care of flowers and plants, and receive gifts? ? ? It is simply business corruption.

The smile on Hayden's lips was even wider, and his tone was lazy, "Well, now the army also needs all-round talents."

Su Tan sighed inwardly.

He watched as Hayden tapped comfortably and deftly, cleaning up the broken pieces of the engine cover one by one, exposing the inner core device, and a row of complex and precise parts appeared in front of him immediately.

Such a complicated device, not to mention how difficult it is to repair it, I am afraid that it is not easy to disassemble it step by step intact.

Su Tan suggested: "Do you want to ask Dad for help?" The robot Suning knows ten times more than him about machinery.

But Hayden shook his head, raised his eyebrows and smiled at him. "This is a bet between the two of us. Don't worry, I will definitely be able to fix it."

Su Tan: "... You work hard."

He helped Hayden work all morning. Although he was dizzy from seeing the intricate parts and circuit structure, it was not a problem to help pass the wrench by the side.

After a busy morning, less than one-tenth of the engine had just been dismantled. Hayden took the starship back into the space with some regrets, and walked home with Su Tan.

Su Tan was soaked in sweat from the scorching sun. When he returned home, he took a shower before going back to his room and turning on the computer. After logging in to Fanxing Novels.com, he accidentally found "The Era of Domination of the Earth [Quick Travel]" "The data climbed again, and the number of favorites rose to 382.

This far exceeded his expectations. For a new article that has just been published and has not been on any list or recommendation, such a result is already very good.

He logged into the author's background, and saw that there were many comments under his book, and at the top of the page, there was an in-site text message icon flashing and flashing.

Su Tan clicked to open it, and found that it was the website editor Hoshino who wanted to sign a contract with him.

contract

Su Tan searched the Internet and found that Fanxing's contract is very fair, the website and the author are paid half and half, and the editor is solely responsible for representing the author.

He added Hoshino's communication number, and in just a second, there was a response from the other side, and Su Tan's application was quickly passed. The efficiency was so high that Su Tan thought that the other party was waiting at the other end of the network all the time.

Hoshino didn't say much, introduced himself swiftly and concisely, and then handed him two documents. One is the signing process guide, and the other is the signing contract.

Su Tanzai read it carefully before filling in his relevant information, signed his electronic signature at the end of the contract, and sent it back to the editor.

Hoshino reviewed the contract and found that Su Tan was from Planet Gelia, he was very surprised.

"Are you a Geulian?"

Su Tan typed on the keyboard: "Yes."

Hoshino's words came back quickly, "Tsk, you must have a genetic mutation. Gelia hasn't produced a famous novelist in all these years."

His straightforwardness was almost straightforward, but in the next second, a few words appeared on the screen, "But you will definitely be popular."

Su Tan couldn't help pursing the corners of her lips, thanking the other party for her trust with a smile.

Hoshino worked neatly. After finishing all the signing procedures, there was only one last item left, which was video authentication.

Fortunately, the Su family's old-fashioned computer still had a camera function. Su Tan immediately accepted the video invitation sent by Hoshino, and was a little surprised to find that a very beautiful sister Yu appeared on the computer screen.

An all-black leather skirt completely covers her beautiful figure. The excellent tailoring inadvertently reveals her fair skin. Coupled with her hot red lips and domineering eyes, she can feel the queen's temperament on the screen. .

When Hoshino saw Su Tan on the side of the camera, he was also surprised for a moment, and raised his eyebrows directly and asked, "Cute, come and tell my sister, are you underage?"

Su Tan: "No, I have already completed the annual ceremony."

Hoshino didn't believe it, and said firmly, "Don't lie, among the Geulians, you have a figure like a ten-year-old elementary school student."

Su Tan: ... piercing my heart.

Hoshino didn't mean to make things difficult for him, she found out a part of the contract and pointed it out to him. "Minors can sign a contract, but they must have the consent of their guardians."

She looked at him, her red lips evoked a gentle and comforting smile, "Quickly, call your guardian over."

Su Tan: ...

No matter how he explained, Hoshino didn't believe it. In desperation, he had no choice but to call up Abba who was busy making small meatloaf downstairs with an apron on.

The robot Suning stood in front of the computer camera, trying to straighten his metal chest, pretending to be a dignified head of the family. It spoke cautiously and calmly, "I am Su Tan's father."

On the other end of the network, Hoshino was silent.

Her eyes flicked from the flour-stained apron in front of Suning to the rolling pin carried by its metal steel fingers, and then she looked at Su Tan with a helpless and funny expression on her face.

"Little friend, don't make trouble." Her red lips raised, but her delicate eyebrows and eyes showed a see-through look. "Finding a household robot to replace parents is a trick I have used since the third grade of elementary school."

Su Tan: Meow meow

Hoshino chuckled, and said directly: "So, go and call your parents over, don't waste sister's time."

Su Tan: "...he is really my father."

Robot Suning: "I am his father!!!"

The two spoke in unison, looked at each other, and found that the other's eyes were a little speechless.

In the end, it was Suning who reported the interstellar ID numbers of the two, and after verification by Hoshino, they finally verified their identities and finalized the signing.

Hoshino was very sorry, she didn't expect Su Tan to be so different from the Geulians in her impression, and even mistook Suning for a domestic robot. Simply, Suning didn't mean to blame her, and after accepting her apology, he went downstairs again and continued to rush back to the kitchen.

Hoshino told him: "Work hard to save manuscripts, work diligently to update daily, first cultivate a regular readership, and leave the rest to me."

Her explanation was crisp and clear, without the slightest sloppiness, which made people feel at ease.

In the next few days, Su Tan planned his time. While taking some school courses in a planned way, he concentrated on starting the coding project.

His new book "The Era of Conquering the Earth [Quick Travel]" has reached 200,000 words, and there are only three days left before the deadline for the final "Ancient Earth" topic call for papers.

The number of submissions has begun to heat up completely. In the last three days, the number of submissions showed a trend of blowout, and suddenly increased several times. It was not until the last day that it was gradually saturated and stabilized at 1,200.

Among them, many of them are only related to the ancient earth, and they played a borderline game to submit manuscripts. This required a long review period for the website to screen, and finally selected the best ten ancient earth-themed novels and displayed them publicly on the homepage of the website.

The scheduled review and publicity time is just two weeks later.

By this time, Su Tan was in no hurry. According to his own schedule, he went to school to study courses he was interested in in an orderly manner, and when he was free, he helped Hayden repair the starship, leaving only three hours a day for himself to concentrate on coding.

Under such circumstances, his code word speed is getting faster and faster, and he can often save 20,000 words a day.

On the one hand, this is due to the detailed outline and detailed outline of the novel, which allows him to know the clear context and plot direction of the novel anytime and anywhere; Familiar with smooth.

Whenever he touched the keyboard, thoughts poured out of his mind like flowing clouds and water, and were recorded in the document smoothly and neatly.

When the saved manuscript reached 300,000 words, Su Tan came back from school that evening, turned on his computer habitually, logged on to the website, and found another message in his inbox. Click to open it, it is the editor's reminder.

"Hoshino: Quickly apply for the list!!!!"

Sister Yu's irritable tone almost came out through the screen. Su Tan quickly glanced at the webpage link attached by Hoshino, and found that there were only five minutes left before the deadline for applying for the list on the website.

If the author doesn't apply, it will be regarded as voluntary abstention. Even if the editor is willing, he can't help the author win the list, that's why Hoshino is in such a hurry.

Without hesitation, Su Tan decisively wrote down the name of his work at the end of the application list, and saw that the application was locked after a minute. Hoshino sent a message late, "You are finally online..."

Su Tan was a little apologetic, and spent an afternoon studying the rules of the website, especially going to the author forum to dive and learn a lot of related routines and precautions for newcomers.

On the way, I was surprised to find that my novel was posted on the topic of the forum post again.

""The Age of Domination of the Earth [Quick Travel]"—Which great god's vest is this?"

There was a lot of discussion in the post.

"I think it's A University! It has a strong nostalgic and realistic style, and the characters are outstanding and fun. It is definitely a little vest that A University secretly opened."

"Don't guess upstairs, A is going to have a baby. If he has the energy to open the vest at this time, I will offer you both knees. I think it is a big vest of 'barbecue stew stick meat', isn't it? Don’t you feel that this is somewhat mysteriously similar to the author’s title of "Zhiba" 'Everyday brushes with braised pork'?"

"!!! What the upstairs says makes sense! I believe it!"

"I also believe +1"

For a while, the rumors that Su Tan was mistaken for another author spread wildly, and the post was covered hundreds of floors, all discussing Bangbangrou, so stupid, so naive, thinking that such a name would not be recognized by readers come out.

Under the unanimous opinion, "Barbecue Stewed Meat Bang Bang Meat" had to come out to refute the rumors, and appeared in the post in person, leaving a message to clarify: "It's really not me... I have never eaten braised pork, I really want to eat it."

Seeing her reply, the number of replies in the post immediately erupted into a small climax, but the painting style was getting more and more crooked.

"The big meat is really a foodie."

"I really want to know what kind of meat is braised pork, sweet? Sour? Spicy? Salty? Greedy~"

"Braised Pork, I really want to know how to do it. How about making it public to satisfy our foodies?"

Su Tan couldn't help laughing at these comments. He didn't expect that a plate of Huaxia's most common braised pork would set off a fiery climax in the interstellar world.

Thanks to the fact that they haven't seen fried liver, fried fish and crayfish, China's countless delicacies will definitely conquer the stomachs of these interstellar foodies.

Even his own editor, Hoshino, knocked on him quietly, "... What kind of meat is braised pork?"

Su Tan replied steadily: "Then I will make the braised pork tonight as a benefit for readers."

Hoshino returned quickly, "Good!"

It has only been 20 days since he wrote the article, the number of words has reached 100,000, his collection has exceeded 500, and his comments have exceeded 400, all relying on the support and love of readers.

So, he closed the webpage, went downstairs and entered the kitchen, and explained his thoughts to Abba.

The robot Suning couldn't help being a little startled when he heard this, but he still stepped out of the kitchen and looked at Su Tan's movements with suspicion.

"Son, how about I help you do it?" Suning watched the sharp blade swinging in Su Tan's hand, his heart was in his throat, and he couldn't help but said.

Su Tan smiled slightly, very determined and calm. "Dad, don't worry."

Huaxia's braised pork uses the best pork belly. Although there is a wild boar in Guilia, it has a similar texture to pork belly, so Su Tan chose this kind of meat.

He now puts the whole piece of meat into boiling hot water, scalds it for a few seconds, then removes it and rinses it under cold water until it cools completely.

Seeing this, Suning looked at the white piece of meat with suspicion, and finally held back what he wanted to say, instead of dampening Su Tan's enthusiasm, he encouraged him enthusiastically: "Son, you are awesome! The meat is cut clean and white." it's beautiful."

Su Tan couldn't help but smile, put oil in the cold pan neatly, add spices and stir-fry until fragrant, then pour the white and clean pieces of meat in Suning's mouth into the pan and stir-fry.

Immediately, the scorching hot bottom of the pot with the scent of spices came into contact with the meat, arousing a strong aroma, and the oil from the meat was stirred out bit by bit. Su Tan seized the opportunity to add other sauces, Stir fry evenly to let the meat pieces color.

Suddenly, a strong aroma swept the entire kitchen.

Hayden, who was coming out of the shower, paused and quietly stopped at the kitchen door. The robot Suning found him, turned to the side, moved a seat for him, and couldn't help but admired Hayden: "Look, my son's cooking is super~super~good!"

Hayden raised the corners of his lips, sniffed the fragrance from the tip of his nose, and agreed, "Yes."

Su Ning glanced at him sideways, then suddenly cleared his throat, coughed and said, "Su Tan has grown up, he is cute and filial, and he is also good at cooking..."

It talked about a lot of Su Tan's benefits here and there, before finally returning to the topic. "...So, Su Tan's big cousin, do you have any suitable friends to introduce to Su Tan?"

Hayden leaned his arms against the door frame, "Introduction?"

Suning coughed lightly, and reminded: "Subject." It has given up hope for Su Tan to find a partner on Gelia planet, but it doesn't mind the alien son-in-law!

The robot father's eyes were shining brightly, he looked at Hayden and suggested: "At least the introduction can't be worse than yours!"

Looking for a family-oriented, all-around good man like Hayden.

Hayden listened to its conditions, thought about it seriously, and shook his head: "I'm afraid it can't be done."

He chuckled, and said confidently and calmly: "It is impossible for anyone to be better than me."

The author has something to say:

Robot Dad: ... Who gave you the confidence? ?
