Some aspects of research robots are more demanding than ordinary combat robots, not to mention the expensive raw materials, and some key spare parts are also troublesome.
It's too fast, and Luke has to let the big guy who sells everything to trade, which is a waste of time.
No matter how much money Luke has, he can't let Dr. Stern do this.
Unconstrained scientific researchers can burn the wealth of the entire earth.
Luke is just a shareholder of several companies, not the god of the earth.
If you can save unnecessary expenses, you must save it.
Of course, I have expressed my attitude, and things still have to be given.
After Luke personally "negotiated" with Claudia and Ophelia, the two readily agreed to cooperate in the research.
However, in order to avoid such troublesome things as the instant destruction of research robots, Dr. Stern must not plan to cut people apart and study such things little by little.
It's not that Luke wants to give these two women some preferential treatment, it's that these two women are not mentally normal.
It is easy for them to go crazy completely, but it is difficult to get them to cooperate with the experiment in the future.
What's more interesting is that after the two women accepted the "negotiation" conditions, they finally "reinvigorated".
They all expressed their willingness to participate in the research, rather than simply being studied.
In exchange for active participation in the research, they have the right to refuse certain experimental items from Dr. Stern.
No one wants to be ordered like a monkey, let alone them.
Dr. Stern's "catfish" had its due effect, and it was an internal tap for Luke's scientific research project.
When it comes to biotechnology, Luke is really unprofessional, let alone not very interested.
These three Ph.D.s can all be spent with some money and equipment, and he does not need to participate in research in this area, just "reap" the results on a regular basis.
…
Just after ten o'clock in the evening, Joseph was sent back by Minty on time.
Even if Joseph is wearing a nano armor, this is a must.
Mindy was only fourteen, but definitely more "adult" than nine-year-old Joseph.
Besides, the older brother doesn't need to create opportunities for the younger brother, but at least he can't mess with it.
When the two were saying goodbye at the door, Luke came out quietly: "Why don't you come in and sit down, Minty."
Minty was startled, and immediately relaxed: "Luke, are you back?"
Luke hummed and said with a smile: "How about I drive you back?"
Minty rolled her eyes: "I'm already in the tenth grade!"
Luke shrugged: "Okay, come over tomorrow and give you a small gift?"
Minty's eyes lit up: "What gift?"
Luke: "Handicraft."
Minty was not disappointed.
The long knife given by Luke last time was very good. Although she didn't use it very much, she still liked it very much.
Just like the dozens of butterfly knives she owns, collecting high-quality cold weapons is a personal hobby, and I can never have too many.
The big guy who sells everything also has special refrigeration weapons, but they have to be bought with points, which is completely different from gifts from others.
The happy Mindy waved goodbye, and pedaled her bicycle back to her home across the river.
Joseph pushed the bicycle in, put it in the hallway at the door, and asked casually as he went upstairs, "Your business trip went well?"
Luke: "Well, it's okay."
Sensing Joseph's mood swings, Luke secretly smiled: "Well, you have a gift too."
Joseph's mood improved obviously, but he said in his mouth: "I'm not a child."
Luke hehe: "You mean Mindy is still young?"
Joseph curled his lips: "She probably won't grow up in this life."
Luke didn't refute this.
Speaking of not growing up, it's because Minty's character has always been a bit childish, not that she is naive.
After a while, Luke pretended to go upstairs, and handed two large boxes to Joseph with a suppressed smile: "This is a gift for you."
Joseph gave him a suspicious look: "Can I take it apart?"
Luke nodded, picked up the coffee on the table by the way, and took a leisurely sip.
There is no extra packaging in the big box, just a bow tied with a red ribbon.
Joseph lifted the lid of the box with a casual tug, and was shocked when he saw what was inside.
He was a little unsure, reached out and took the thing out of the box, turned it around in front of him for more than three hundred and sixty, and was 100% sure—this is a motorcycle helmet.
A motorcycle helmet is fine as a gift, but the problem is that this helmet is... pink, with cartoon-like whiskers and a mouth on the front, forming a cute cat face.
Joseph turned his head and looked at Luke:? ?
Luke raised his hand with a smile: "There is one more."
Joseph moved quickly, opened the second box, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the dark color: "This is what I wear, right?"
Luke laughed loudly: "Hey, do you still want to wear that girly pink?"
Joseph glared at his elder brother angrily: "You did it on purpose!"
He just came back to himself now.
Just now Luke deliberately put the pink helmet close to him, just to let him open the box first.
In fact, this gift is a couple helmet.
The two helmets are similar in shape, but the black men's model has no extra decorations, and the pink girl's model has a cartoon cat face.
After complaining about the prank brother, Joseph's mind also turned quickly: "You, shouldn't it be a motorcycle that gave her?"
Luke nodded, confirming the correctness of his speculation: "Yes."
Joseph had a strange face: "So, you gave me two motorcycle helmets as a gift, but she gave her a motorcycle."
Luke leisurely sipped his coffee: "Yes."
Joseph wanted to complain, but didn't know what to say for a while.
But Luke explained: "Boys, you must pay attention to your personal safety when you get in the car, and you must take good protective measures. And you have been training with him for so long, should I just give him a helmet?"
Joseph finally couldn't bear it anymore: "I mean, you shouldn't be splitting the original set of presents into two and giving them?"
Luke shook his head resolutely: "How is that possible? If it's a gift for a set, why should I prepare a helmet for you? Find a free driver for a car, and you're not satisfied with this gift?"
Joseph: ... free driver? The routines that adults play are really deep.
The next day, Minty jumped up happily after receiving the motorcycle.
This is not a high-end motorcycle, but Luke specially modified it for her, especially suitable for short legs.
The overall motorcycle is streamlined, pink and purple looks very eye-catching, the body size is small, but its weight is enough to soar at high speed.
There are nano armor and a couple helmet specially equipped by Luke, which can ensure that two people will not have to worry about their lives when riding it.
Not only that, but it also has the functions of partially deforming the shell, switching the license plate, and quickly changing the color, which is similar to Bell's taxi.
On straight road sections, it can also perform assisted intelligent driving, which can free up the driver's hands in a short time.
Luke also has a fully intelligently controlled motorcycle, but he must use super-wide tires. The appearance is too cool, and he will definitely be surrounded by crazy crowds when he goes out. It is not suitable for these two minors.
Minty and Joseph's daily commuting, this civilian version of the motorcycle is also sufficient.
