Studying Science in the Alternate World

  Chapter 15 Remodeling a new home

  Little Sam’s Shuka store changed owners, and word spread quickly among the neighbors. Many nearby shop owners even came here to meet Duke.

  Basically, there have been no major changes, and business has not seen a decline.

  After all, there is only one small Sam card repair shop in the area of ​​the Second Vertical Street. If the nearby residents have a broken card, who can repair the card at the small Sam repair shop, who will go farther to repair the card.

  Di Ranco and Sane basically come to fix cards every day.

  Only Best would ask for leave every now and then and never come.

   "Mr. Best, do you feel uncomfortable recently? It's only been a week, and the consumables are as good as the previous month." Duke came over with a frown.

   "What's wrong." Best said with a straight face.

   "I hope you can provide more snacks and minimize the loss of consumables. If you are running a small business, you should save a little more."

   "Hehe." Best smiled perfunctorily, "There are always times when things go wrong, even when old Sam was around, I also had a little more consumables, so the new boss will catch me and not let go?"

  Duke said lightly: "I have seen the account books left by old Sam. You have been very stable, Mr. Best, in the past year, so I just came here to remind you."

  Best returned with his head held high: "I'm going to turn over the account and settle it, right? What level am I? Didn't you see it when you were an apprentice? As for looking for it now?"

   "Best, don't say a few words." Sane came over.

  While holding Best to stop talking, he smiled at Duke: "Best has such a bad temper, and his skills are still trustworthy. Duke, don't take it to heart."

  A small conflict was resolved.

  Although Duke found Best not pleasing to the eye, he couldn't find a suitable card repairer to replace him for a while, so the matter of consumables was held high and put down gently.

  But secretly, he was speeding up the steps of learning.

  Hope to be promoted to card repairer sooner, so as to replace Best.

  It's a pity that even with Xiaoyi's theoretical guidance, in terms of card repairing skills, he still can't really enter the room. The reason is that he is only a one-star spiritual apprentice.

  The ectoplasmic fluid is only a rough gathering of spiritual power, unable to produce finer operations.

   As for repairing cards, it is a delicate work of engraving on rice grains, and there is a huge demand for the control of spiritual power. Unless the energy lines are condensed and the control power is raised to a higher level, it is really difficult to start.

   On the other hand, Xiaoyi has grown rapidly during this period.

  As Duke lit a lamp and read through a large number of books, the content of Xiaoyi's database increased greatly. Especially in the field of card repair, it has reached the pinnacle, no matter how damaged the spirit card is, it can quickly give a perfect repair plan. Due to the lack of Duke's strength, Xiaoyi's ability cannot be used for the time being.

   It’s like a computer with a single-core CPU, even if it is equipped with sophisticated software, it won’t be able to run.

   Only when Duke's strength improves can Xiaoyi play a role.

   "Xiaoyi, your card repairing skills have reached the peak, so how about learning card making technology." Duke lay on the bed, and "White Paper Meditation Method" was running on its own under Xiaoyi's control.

   "The card making technology is still being learned. Each 'ring' needs to process too much data. Now Xiaoyi can only perform simulation calculations. The success rate of the ring simulation is less than 1%."

   "In other words, there is still a probability of success?"

"Yes."

   "Keep working hard, I will collect more books related to rings and card making for you." Duke responded, suddenly thinking of something, "That's right, Xiaoyi."

   "Speak, master."

   "You have successfully constructed a ring during the simulation, then you can allocate part of the computing power to try to improve a ring of Sand Eagle."

   "Okay, then what direction does the master want Xiaoyi to help Shaying improve?"

   "Improve in the direction of... the muffler. Install a muffler for the Sand Eagle. I know the principle of the muffler. If you design according to this principle, it should be able to reduce some difficulty."

  As an arcane weapon, he has already verified the power of the Sand Eagle, an absolute weapon for killing people.

   But the sound of the gunshot is so loud that ordinary people can hear it a mile away. For a great knight with keen five senses, the gunshot can be clearly heard a kilometer away.

   This shot was fired in the downtown area, and everyone might have to watch it.

   At that time, the secret is very likely to be exposed.

   Xiaoyi quickly replied: "Okay, Xiaoyi will improve the muffler for the Shaying in the next time, and notify the owner as soon as the improvement is successful."

  …

  In the next few days, everything in the store will be normal.

  Duke has found it difficult to improve in card repairing skills. It is really the subtle control that the spiritual liquid can provide, which is not enough to support the transformation of the energy route.

  So besides accumulating knowledge, he spends a lot of time tidying up the backyard and warehouse.

  Little Sam’s repair card shop has been in business for more than 20 years, and every place is old and leaky, and it is full of various sundries, all of which need to be sorted out and repaired by Duke.

  Bob and the three apprentices were also called by him to help.

   It took half a month before and after, and finally cleaned up the shop again.

   In front of it is the storefront facing the street, with two rooms on each of the upper and lower floors. There are two rooms downstairs, one is the counter area and the other is the repair area; there are two rooms upstairs, one is the Ling card storage area and the other is the card repair equipment area.

   At the back of the store, the area of ​​about one room was widened by Old Sam to store the consumables needed for daily use.

   Further back is a small yard about 100 square meters. Behind the small yard is a large warehouse. The waste and old objects that have been thrown in for many years have been cleaned out now.

   Unnecessary sundries are sold as scrap.

   In the space vacated, Duke invited a construction team to transform it into a small apartment with one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, and officially moved it from the rental house.

   "The back of the apartment is an alley, not far from the vegetable market, and it will be very convenient to buy vegetables in the future." Duke stood at the back door of the apartment, quite satisfied with his new home.

  He closed the back door and came out to the front yard.

  The courtyard wall is very high, but the courtyard is very empty, and he has thrown away all the sundries from Old Sam's time.

   "If I can get some money later, I will buy a spiritual plant and plant it. It will attract more free spirituality to facilitate my cultivation." He planned in his heart.

  Bob once said that at the beginning, Old Sam also planted spiritual plants in the yard to provide an environment for cultivation.

  It's a pity that old Sam's cultivation base stagnated later, and he didn't bother to continue to take care of the spiritual plant, so the spiritual plant died and was shoveled out.

   "My cultivation will never stagnate, so Lingzhi must plan as soon as possible." Duke thought.

  Spiritual beasts can be born in animals, and spiritual plants can naturally be born in plants. Spiritual plants are not only economic products, but also have a very important function-to breathe free spirituality and sort out the spiritual aura.

  He glanced at the gray sky: "Although spirituality is everywhere, it can be divided into thin and thick... Snake Head Town is built on a spiritual spring, which is located in the center of the well in the center of the town. The free spirituality that escaped from the spiritual spring floats to the second vertical street. It is much thinner and must be sorted out with spiritual plants."
