Resurrection Empire

Chapter 20: Surfing the Internet [3,000 words, thanks to the leader of Dorato! 】

   Supply and Marketing Cooperative is a 13-story square building, standing out of the ordinary at the junction of the slums and the rich areas.

   Each floor has an area of ​​2,500 square meters, filled with a wide range of goods.

   As long as they have money, people can buy everything except basic food and munitions here.

  Daily chemicals, advanced food, household appliances, and household goods, decorative building materials, etc. are all available.

   There is no welcoming guests in the building, and there are no salespersons and cashier counters inside.

   The entire supply and marketing cooperative is unattended.

  Customers have three ways to purchase.

   Those who own a formal watch can place an order online at home, and then deliver it to the door by drone.

Or go to the lobby on the ground floor of the supply and marketing agency, look up the list of products through the console shaped like an ATM machine, view pictures and video introductions, place orders collectively, and then the supply robots in the building will quickly collect the products and send them to the front .

  Customers can also walk into the shopping mall by themselves, watch the actual goods place an order on the spot, and directly pick up their parcels from the conveyor belt on the inner side of the gate when they leave the building.

Ren Zhong didn’t want to waste time, so he didn’t go into the first floor of the building to take a closer look. He only scanned the product list at a very fast speed with the console in the lobby on the ground floor, and then looked clean and tidy, full of technological sense. Desolate and lonely, and the words "cannibalism" were read in the building.

   The three sales models and all-encompassing products of the Arsenal Supply and Marketing Co. have greatly improved the efficiency of economic and trade activities in Xinghuo Town.

   But it is precisely because of the existence of the giant supply and marketing cooperative that completely blocked the space for the low-level people in the small town to make a living by using basic work such as retailing of small commodities and express delivery.

   People at the bottom can only do trivial small businesses such as repairing clothes and renting old books that big companies dismiss, and they have to face the cruel inward competition among the same class.

  You can’t even open a fly restaurant. Starting from the source of the raw materials, everything is controlled by large companies. No one can reduce the cost of their restaurant to a lower level than that of a canteen.

  Even if there are unique tastes, it is impossible to fight the unmanned private kitchens that are also affiliated to the large company Tianlong Hi-Tech.

The unmanned private kitchen adopts artificial intelligence machinery for fully automatic cooking, which controls the heat extremely accurately, and the material ratio is accurate to micrograms. In terms of price, taste, etc., unmanned private kitchens can overwhelm ordinary people with cooking skills. The advantage of sex.

   In addition, the huge Arsenal Supply and Marketing Co. only needs a dozen managers to maintain its operation.

   It is said that the dozen or so managers are all official citizens, living in the villas per capita in the wealthy area within the white walls.

   The task is to search for the official watch in the list, confirm that the price is 100 points, click the buy button, and paste the temporary watch in the left hand on the induction area of ​​the operating table.

  滴——

  Bone conduction electronic female voice sounded, "Buy a first-class official watch, and you will count 100 contribution points."

   Wait 30 seconds, the ceiling above the console in front of Ren Zhong opened a three-meter-long square hole, and a small mechanical telescopic arm hung a palm-sized tray from above and hovered in front of him.

   The heavy new watch is packed in a paper box, a typical work bag.

   In his heart, he feels that from now on, he will be a clan.

   Putting aside the Internet function of the official watch, just wear this watch to sleep, you can get 0.9 more contribution points every day, and you can get back the full amount in 112 days.

  The "business" that can return to the original in less than four months, even the best of the wild people like Zheng Tian's team has patience not to do it, but spends limited money on other more important places.

   It can be seen how tight the shackles attached to the deserted people are in this world, how low the survival needs of the deserted people are, and how difficult it is to store a hundred yuan.

   Then he took out the official watch and touched it on the temporary watch dial in his left hand, and said, "Funds transfer."

   There was a bone conduction sound in his cochlea again, "The fund transfer was successful, and the current balance is 101.72 contribution points."

   The burden is heavy for a moment.

   Something is wrong.

   From Sun Miao Naru to 200 points, sell Crystal Wingfly remains to get 0.72, and the total wealth should be 200.72.

   spent 100, the remaining balance should be 100.72.

   Why is one more point?

Where did    come from?

   When he got the temporary watch earlier, he wondered that he was a pauper anyway, and he didn't check the balance and didn't notice this phenomenon.

   After earning money later, he didn't deliberately check it out. Anyway, he knew from such a simple numerical calculation. He didn't even use the voice prompt to read the balance.

   The problem was discovered at this moment, and Ren Zhong looked at his temporary watch again with a puzzled expression.

   Is it possible that there is 1 point in the temporary watch from the beginning?

   Or, now my wealth balance has been included in the value of the temporary watch?

   A few seconds later, the heavy gaze fell on the recycling button on the console, clicked, and then selected the item of temporary watch, clicked to confirm the recycling.

   The mechanical arm fell down again, and he took the time to put the temporary watch in, and then immediately put on the official watch.

   "Sell a temporary watch, the price is 1 contribution point, the tax is 0.1 contribution point, and you get 0.9 contribution point. The existing balance is 102.62 contribution points."

   The task is determined.

   It seems that the recovery value of the temporary watch just now has not been calculated, and there is a whole point in my account for some reason.

   This is not a small amount. It is enough for ten days of rations for the barren people at the bottom, and it is also the average daily harvest of Zheng Tian's team members.

   After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't figure out what went wrong.

   This is not the reason for IQ, but it is really a supernatural event.

   For a rigorous scholar, the thief hates this situation that is completely out of prediction, just as Heisenberg, who first discovered the law of uncertainty, was tortured for a long time by his obsession.

   At the beginning of the electronic double-slit interference experiment, because it was too weird, it was even called God Throwing the Dice because it was too weird.

  All things that science cannot explain for the time being can first be attributed to religious metaphysics.

   God’s will is over.

   Alas, when I knew that I had collected money from Sun Miao earlier, I should let the voice message report the balance.

   But after all, Zong Zhong came out of self-torture.

He said to himself: "Forget it, it's just one more piece instead of less. More money is always a good thing. No matter how small the mosquito's legs are, it is meat. Besides, the electronic double-slit interference experiment is not just a lot of attempts. Did you come to a conclusion? I still have a chance..."

   There are still 40 minutes left before the meeting time agreed with Zheng Tian, ​​so I can't waste it, and I decided to find a safe and clean place to try surfing the Internet.

   On the side of the lobby of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative Building, there is an empty tea bar.

   After thinking for a while, he walked into the tea bar, was stopped by the service robot, ordered a cup of plain tea worth 0.1 contribution point, and sat down.

It is not that he was wasting money, but that he does not own his own house. When using a watch, his nerves and brain will be immersed by bio-electrical signals. A clean and relatively safe environment is needed. The tea bar in the building of the supply and marketing agency is just right. meets requirements.

   After a short while, the heavy task of closing his eyes and dozingly "in front of his eyes" once again appeared on the VR giant screen, and the Shenxun Group's advertisement once again sounded in his ears.

   Skip the advertisement and click on the Internet function decisively.

   The urban projection in the giant screen disappears and is replaced by a completely black picture.

   The beautiful synthetic female voice is heard again in my ears.

   "Welcome, new user. This is the first time you have used the Internet function of this station's independent property right auxiliary brain. Would you like to skip the tutorial for newcomers?"

   "Don't skip."

   "This auxiliary brain supports custom interface functions. Please follow the tutorial below to set an interface that meets your personal preferences."

   More than ten minutes later, Ren Zhong "looked at" this Windows system, which was exactly the same as the popular Windows system in the 21st century, with an antique window interface, and felt sincerely comfortable and satisfied.

   Various newly downloaded program icons are arranged neatly on his desktop according to different functions and icon colors, which can be called the gospel of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

   If others can see his interface, he will definitely complain about his outdated aesthetics.

   But it doesn’t matter, what I like is the best.

   His heavy eyes dazzled an icon called Virtual Life, hesitated for a while, and did not open it.

Just now when he was searching for the necessary software, this virtual life is the most mainstream communication and social software on Yuanxing. It has multiple functions such as simulation games, social networking, and advertising distribution. It is compatible with WeChat, QQ or Twitter in the 21st century. The software is almost the same, but the function is countless times more powerful.

   The heavy responsibility actually wants to register a new account, try to communicate with more people on the Internet, and use a faster speed to stand on a higher perspective to experience the social atmosphere of the entire Origin Star.

   But he endured it.

   The timing is not yet ripe.

   The targeted eradication of hunters has brought a wake-up call~www.NovelMTL.com~ As early as the 21st century, there was artificial intelligence and big data lurking in the social world of the Internet.

These big data systems can analyze the thoughts of certain groups and individuals by collecting all the information left by user groups on the Internet, such as language, text, pictures, and videos, and build models that represent the characteristics of the people’s thoughts in the virtual world. Model, make a variety of targeted and subtle information flow guidance, in order to achieve the purpose of controlling people's thoughts.

   All this is also called the information cocoon room.

   Renzhong suspects that there may be similar but more powerful information cocoons in this deformed world.

   For security reasons and the purpose of pretending to be lurking, to avoid exposing himself prematurely, he decided to temporarily avoid social networking on the Internet.

  Wait for half a year or a year, and it’s not too late to participate in Internet social interaction when you fully understand the entire social structure and can disguise it perfectly.

   At the same time, he has actually taken a risk when he surfs the Internet like this.

   In case the information on the Internet is also exposed, I am afraid that I will have to give up the use of official watches and work with temporary watches for a long time.

   waited another five minutes, the hunter did not appear beside him.

   It's done, Ren Zhong sighed inwardly, and clicked on the icon of the Beast Market (Public Edition) in the column of the reference book.

   Workers must first sharpen their tools if they want to do well.

   He has decided to become a mecha fighter, but before that, he feels that he should have a deeper understanding of his opponent.

  Especially the crystal winged fly with blood and deep feud, and the blade beetle that may face tomorrow.

   Research whether the blade beetle has a breakthrough and whether it can be reckless.

   If you are reckless, you can avoid it without fighting.
