my son billions

It turned out that after the energy stone of the farm, all the teams were divided into three parts.One is specially used to buy ores, the other is used to sell cheap energy stones, and the last one is a combination of the two. As long as you line up in this team, you can buy ores with skills and handle energy stones business at the same time.

It's just that there are too many people who come to handle business, and the queue is getting longer and longer, and everyone is a little restless.But this day, in the energy stone line, a different figure suddenly appeared - a small mining robot was also lined up in the middle of the line.

This dissatisfied many miners who were anxious to buy energy stones so that they could go back to mine early.Even though the alliance has recognized the status of robots as intelligent life, in the human world, the status of machines and robots is still completely different.These machines made by humans have no intelligence and emotion, and can only be manipulated according to the program. Of course, they will not have the same power and status as them.

So someone clamored to drive this robot out of the team, "What's the situation? How can the machine come to line up? It's impossible for the farm to exchange energy stones for you. Isn't this a waste of our time? Hurry up and get out!" "

While saying such words, the people pushed the mining robot out of the team.

However, most of the robots have some brainless stubbornness due to the programming.After being pushed out, the robot seemed a little unclear, so when he turned his head to look at the team, he didn't know what to do. He just rolled the squeaky wheels and went backwards, and finally he was ranked last again. .

Everyone felt a little funny seeing this, but the people in front of the team didn't care anymore.

It was just that the long queues were lined up again one after another. Someone discovered the robot again and squeezed it out of the queue again.

So just like that, the little robot lined up for a whole day, but it didn't get its turn to buy energy stones.

And when people came to buy energy the next day, they found this little robot that had been stubbornly queuing all day yesterday.Then the farce of the previous day was staged again, until someone couldn't stand it anymore

"Don't you want to be ashamed? People have been queuing for a whole day, and you still rush! Why are you rushing? You are rushing to reincarnate!" The woman yelled loudly, usually bumping into the man who was pushing the robot with her shoulders. staggered.

"It, it's a robot, how can a robot replace this thing by itself?" The man retorted weakly, and several men beside him also murmured, but no one dared to come up to argue with her.

"What's wrong with the robot? Do you understand fair trade? You pay the money and deliver the goods. People don't get more credits, so why can't they be replaced? The farm didn't even say no, why do you have such a say? If you say you can’t, then you can’t? I also said you can’t change, are you going to get out?” The woman stretched out her fingers and poked the man’s chest while talking, almost knocking the man down.

"You, you woman, why are you so unreasonable!" The man who was poked back a few steps by her blushed, but he couldn't compete with her in aura.

"Why am I being unreasonable?" The woman's voice suddenly rose, and the expression on her face also looked fierce, "I don't think you are unreasonable! People are lined up, and you have to let them go. It's been a fucking day yesterday, and I don't bother to talk to you. It's good for you, today I will do this trick again? What's the matter? Bullying the weak and fearing the hard? Seeing that people are easy to bully, you go back to bullying others? I'll tell you, today I will Here it is!"

As she spoke, the fat woman reached out and lifted the two small arms of the little robot, and stuffed it back into its original position, then stared at the person next to her with her hands on her hips and said, "It was originally in front of me, and now I'm looking at it. Who dares to let it go, pass my level first!"

After the woman finished speaking, she glared at everyone around her aggressively.

Everyone couldn't help shrinking their necks, and hurriedly turned back to the first look that had nothing to do with them.And the man beside her also touched his nose with a gloomy expression on his face, but he didn't dare to say anything.

When Xu Chu saw this, he was only amused, and he was really surprised by the behavior of that little robot.He didn't know if someone had reprogrammed the little robot, or if it was doing it on its own.

But as the fat woman said, for him, he was just collecting some ore. As for who sent the ore, what does it matter?

It's just that the residents all have communicators as their identity markers, so they can directly use the communication number as their account number for storing Quaker meat at the farm.

But these little robots don't have such a thing.Xu Chu thought for a while, and felt that they should have similar production numbers, and planned to ask Fan Daer to help compile a set of data for them as their accounts in the farm.

Seeing that the other people here have been stupefied by that strong lady, he turned his head and told Fandral about the matter here, asking him to pay more attention to this aspect, and then put this matter behind him , turned around and went back.

On that day, when the Qatar company's s2 model, batch 35768, numbered 7728321434 robot, successfully exchanged the ore it dug out for a share of energy, it carefully put the cable energy stone into its belly. Nakahara was in a storage box full of various sundries.Then it rolled the small wheels, along the uneven road, and stumbled to a corner far away in the wasteland.

It was originally a depression at the foot of a mountain wall, and the stones on the top protruded, forming a slightly sheltered space with the mountain wall.But the height of that space is only about one meter, and most people can't stand upright at all.

However, if there are only two s2 mining robots, it is more than enough.

Since it is no longer within the scope of human activities, the ground is very uneven. 1434 rolled the wheel very carefully, for fear that the wheel would get stuck in the crevice of the stone again like last time.It took a lot of effort to dig out the wheels and put them back on.

After finally returning to the depression on the mountain wall, 1434 placed a piece of metal picked up on the road on a stone slightly above the ground, then picked up a crude shovel leaning on the mountain wall, and began to shovel under his feet. dug up.

Originally, when it first came here, it still used its own digging bit to dig the ground, but after a long time, the drill bit was seriously worn out, but there was no way to replace it.So it can only find other tools instead.Although this is much less efficient, it doesn't wear out the drill bit anymore, and it uses a lot less energy.

1434 dug down a few shovels skillfully, and the movement of his hands stopped.Then it put the shovel back in place, picked up another broom-like thing beside it, and swept it in the dug hole.After the sand was swept away, another abandoned and dilapidated s2 mining robot was revealed inside.

It turns out that in this wasteland, No. 1434 was once attacked by the devouring insect d732.So after that, it learned to bury itself and 5786 in the sand, avoiding d732's attention.

1434 continued to sweep gently with the broom until the sand on No. 5786's body was swept away, then he pulled him up from the soil and pushed him to the flat ground beside him.

Then it pressed a raised button on the upper edge of the opponent's back, cut the energy stone into a suitable size, and put it into the hatch that opened behind No. 5768.

It turned No. 5786 to face itself, and pressed twice on the control panel that popped up on the opponent's chest, and then he could hear the sound of the energy stone being compressed and transformed in the opponent's body, and all kinds of programs and gears in the opponent's body were also turning. up.

As the light above the robot's head was turned on, the sound-generating device in its body was also activated, "Dip—number 7728325786 is at your service."

No. 1434 happily raised his hand to touch the lamp above the other party's head, but heard the other party ask, "Hello, guest, do you need help?"

Seeing this, No. 1434 stood still at a loss.However, No. 5786, which was restarted, still just stubbornly asked, "Hello, customer, do you need help? Hello customer, do you need help?"

Seeing this, the lights above No. 1434's head flickered, and then even the lights seemed a little dim.

It wasn't until No. 5786 started the wheel and wanted to leave because it didn't receive a response, that No. 1434 reached out and pushed the opponent into the original pothole again.

No. 5786, who was pushed and rolled into the pothole, tried to stand up awkwardly, but then was pressed down by No. 1434 of the same size.

No. 1434 stretched out his hand from the pit and filled the sand and mud next to it back into the pit until the bodies of the two people were completely buried.

In the dark and dull underground bunker, No. 1434 raised his hand again and gently touched the light bulb on the other side's head, but the question that the other side kept repeating kept echoing in his ears, and the light bulb on his head gradually faded away. went out.

But outside this small space, the sky is still as blue as washing.

Suddenly, the soil that had just been covered moved, and then a metal arm drilled out.

No. 1434 climbed up from the pothole again, and then pulled No. 5786 out together.With one hand, it tightly grasped No. 5786, which wanted to run around, and with the other hand, it took out a thin rope from the glove box on its chest and tied it to the opponent's arm, while the other end was tied to its own arm that stretched from its side. On another mining drill that came out.

Then it picked up a piece of metal picked up from the road, fixed it on a metal rod that was leaning on the mountain wall with the shovel, and made a simple shovel.

No. 1434 held the two shovels, Gululu turned the wheel, and pulled No. 5786 towards a hole it just dug two days ago.

Once inside the hole, it stuffed a shovel into No. 5786's hand, and after the other party asked the question, he immediately replied, "Mining."

No. 5786 received the order without any hesitation, and stretched out the drill bits from both sides of its body, and began to tap and dig aside, but did not use the shovel made for it by No. 1434.

Seeing this, No. 1434 was stunned for a while, then turned around and started digging.

And the next day, when it reappeared in Quake Village, it was no longer alone, but because it was pulling No. 5786 who just wanted to wander around when it saw people, it was very difficult to move forward.

However, since the other party successfully exchanged energy stones at the redemption station yesterday, no one made things difficult for it today.

And when the figure of this little robot appeared again and again in the central square of Quake Village, gradually, other dilapidated s2-type mining robots, which were always stubbornly on, appeared in the square.

So there was such a spectacle in Quake Village—in the central square where people come and go, people looked down at their feet carefully when they started to learn to walk.Because there are always some figures that are only half of them, and Gululu rolls their small wheels and shuttles quickly in this square.

These small figures are old and rusty, or missing arms and legs, but they all drag or pull goods, or fill their stomachs with ores they dug themselves in exchange for the energy they need.

When some mining robots realize that they can enjoy the fruits of labor for themselves, they gradually start to mine independently and exchange for purchases.

This has made many people who have worked with them, or other people who also need those ores, feel dissatisfied with these robots competing for their interests.But because of the attitude of the farm, they dare not complain openly.So outside of Quick Village, humans often robbed mining robots, which caused Xu Chu a lot of headaches.

Robbing the fruits of the robot's labor, this kind of thing is almost unbelievable to the outside world.

In Xu Chu's view, this is like bullying a child who has not yet grown up, because these robots can't really resist human violence.And when the ore they dug out with energy was robbed again and again, they lost their energy source, but they would shut down forever because of this.

And even if you are lucky enough to restart again, many caches can no longer be restored.

Such a situation made Xu Chu very angry, but he didn't know how to solve it, but the mechanical spider didn't take it seriously.

"They are originally machines, and they are lifeless. Why do you have to talk to them about human rights? The machine stops when it stops? If you really want to use these labor forces, you can recycle them, go to the mining area to enclose a piece of land, and restart them. , work for you in that area. In this way, all the mines they dig will be yours."

Xu Chu frowned and thought for a while.

It's not that he really despises the labor force of these mining robots.In fact, in the 313 area, most of the ore collected by Xu Chu was actually made by these robots.It's just that the bulk of it was brought to Quake Village by humans for exchange.

Even in recent times, only a very small number of robots came to buy them on their own initiative.

But when they appeared in this square on the first day with their own will, he couldn't treat each other as a machine that only followed the procedures.

And that's why he couldn't bear the robberies that happened outside Quake Village.

So Xu Chu didn't intend to listen to the bad idea of ​​the mechanical spider Oliver, but the other party's words gave Xu Chu a new idea.

In fact, the waste soil pollution in Area 313 is still very serious, especially near human settlements.Xu Chu didn't dare to let the little worms come out to dig up the waste soil, but the land far away from the human activity area was cleared up faster by them.

But because of the flow and spread of waste, the waste soil will spread to the surroundings.

Originally, due to the problem of population density, some people had to live in close quarters not far from the wasteland.But after this bug swarm, the number of human beings has been greatly reduced. On the contrary, this group of people has the opportunity to move away.

As a result, some areas have been emptied, and some mines with poor resources are also included.

Those mines were either due to the low value of ore, or because the distribution of ore was too scattered, and the development value was not great, so they were never taken seriously by those large mining companies.

But now, they have become Xu Chu's best tool to ease the conflict between humans and robots.

Due to the pollution of the environment, humans have never dared to approach these areas.And Xu Chu took advantage of this and pulled up a isolation zone around these mines, warning humans not to enter here, but at the same time pulled all the robots that came to the central square to buy energy.

In this way, this area has changed from a dead place for humans to a paradise for mining robots.

On the other hand, due to the lack of manpower, Xu Chu, who could only do it himself, wrapped himself into a big rice dumpling and worked in the abandoned mining area, and finally returned to Fandral's house for a serious meal.When he saw the little leaf next to his leg, he realized that he hadn't talked to the little leaf for a long time.

He has been busy working outside for the past few days, and he seldom comes back. When he comes back, he sleeps with his head covered, and has no other energy.With an apologetic face, he bent down and picked up the little leaf and put it in his arms, stretched out a small tentacle to scratch the slender branch of the little leaf, and seeing the other party itched, he quickly rolled up the leaf and clumps together with the branch, He laughed and asked, "Little Ye Zi, do you miss me?"

Xiao Ye Zi didn't answer, but only after Xu Chu's movement stopped, she slowly let go of the branch, but habitually climbed onto Xu Chu's chest, and stuck the leaf on it as well.

"I want to! Why don't I want to? I'm waiting for you at the door every day!" Fandral's mother Lisa said with a smile while bringing a large pot of broth to the table, "Squatting from morning to night, I don't come in at night. You didn’t come back for a few days, and I tried to pull the door in, but I just squatted by the door and refused to leave. When I woke up the next morning, I saw him sticking to the door. As soon as I opened the door, he came back Rubbing my eyes, I got out of the door and waited for you."

Xu Chu couldn't help feeling distressed when he heard the words, he really didn't expect Xiao Yezi to live like this when he was not around.He stretched out his hand and gently touched the thin green leaf on his chest, and said, "It's my fault. If I don't come back in the future, I will let someone come and tell you."

Then he felt the leaf under his hand slightly arched and rubbed against the palm of his hand, the touch was cool but soft.

"I think, if you're going out for business, you might as well take him with you, at least he can sleep peacefully." Lisa shook her head and said.

Xu Chu thought for a while after hearing the words, and finally nodded and said, "You are right, I will do this in the future."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a small rubbing sound next to his ear.Then Xu Chu looked down and saw the small leaf attached to his chest, and a small pink flower bud the size of a bean sprout bloomed on the tip of the leaf above his head.

Xu Chu was taken aback when he saw this, and then he waited to take a closer look, but saw that the whole plant was rolled up all of a sudden, but Xu Chu refused to let go no matter how much he coaxed him afterwards.

Seeing this, both Lisa and Xu Chu couldn't help laughing.

Xu Chu was afraid that Xiao Yezi would really be annoyed by laughing, and after spending a lot of effort, he finally coaxed Xiao Yezi into being willing to stretch his body, but was disappointed to find that the other party had already retracted the little flower bud.

"Hey, I haven't even seen what it looks like." Xu Chu said with regret.

But what Xiao Yezi said, she didn't want to grow it out for him to look at, and just stuck it to his chest and ignored him.

Xu Chu smiled and touched him again, then turned to Lisa and asked, "Where's that little thing, Hush? It seems like I haven't seen it for a long time."

Lisa frowned slightly when she heard this.

In fact, since Little Yezi doesn't like Hush, and Xu Chu is busy, Lisa will help take care of him most of the time when Hush gets home.

It's just that as long as Xu Chu is at home, he will always take over the care of Xixi.So after such a long time, the two people who hadn't seen each other for a long time didn't realize that Hush was missing until now.

"I thought it stayed upstairs all the time, and it didn't come down very much before. The little thing has a small appetite, and the food in the food bowl I put upstairs hasn't been touched for several days, and I didn't realize that something was wrong." Lisa Sighing, "Later, I searched every corner, but I couldn't find any trace of it. I really didn't find a single hair. It's really strange."

Xu Chu frowned subconsciously when he heard the words.But then he stood up again, comforting Lisa with a relaxed expression on his face, "Maybe he went to another place for fun, and I will go out to look for it. If you can't find it, then forget it. The sky and the earth are big outside, and it will never starve to death."

After speaking, he patted Lisa's shoulder lightly, turned around and left.

Xu Chu searched around carefully, and then let a group of little bugs who were hiding in the corners and following him all the time spread out to search around.But until they searched the entire Quake village, they couldn't find any trace of Shishi.

Seeing this, Xu Chu sighed almost inaudibly.

What he just said was just to comfort Lisa.In this place where even people are dying of starvation, how could Xixiu find something to eat outside?If it has not even touched the food prepared for it, it is definitely not hiding and playing peek-a-boo with them.

But if it goes out, where can it go?

Xu Chu is always used to when he finds something missing, he will try to recall the last time he saw such a thing, under what circumstances and where it was, and then start looking for it again from there.

In this way, he remembered that Sisi spent the night in his bed, but disappeared the next day.

Thinking of this, Xu Chu's heart shuddered, and he subconsciously touched his stomach.

Never—was he eaten by him in his sleep?

Xu Chu guessed with some confusion, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was impossible.

When he was first in that pothole, he had slept with the bugs.Especially in the cold winter, it is common to squeeze each other to keep warm.At that time, he was hungry and hungry, and he had never eaten bugs by mistake, let alone now?

But if it wasn't for this reason, where did Hush Hush go?

He was thinking hard, but the little leaf in his arms couldn't help but yawned sleepily.

It was only at this time that Xu Chu realized that it was already night. Thinking of what Lisa said before, he couldn't help but sighed, but he still took Xiao Yezi back.
