Chapter 3 Sock Nutrition Cream

"It looks like today's nutrient cream is delicious." The mechanical sound of the system rang in Jiang Lin's head.

Jiang Lin chewed it hard and said in his head: "Bullshit, it doesn't taste good at all."

"It's not tasty, why are you reluctant to swallow it?"

What the system said almost made Jiang Lin choke on the nutrient cream.

Jiang Lin roared speechlessly, "Am I reluctant to swallow it? I can't swallow it at all, okay?"

After the old man passed away, Jiang Lin wanted to leave Oort Star, but the cheapest interstellar boat ticket cost tens of thousands of federal currency, and Jiang Lin counted all his belongings, and found that even if he sold his residence, Only about [-] yuan can be collected, which is not enough for the boat ticket.

So, from that day on, Jiang Lin didn't buy any more high-end nutritional creams, and the higher-end nutritional creams he had stockpiled before were all eaten yesterday, and Jiang Lin ate the worst one at this time.

But even the lowest-quality nutritional ointment costs twenty federal coins. For ordinary people who only maintain basic consumption a day, they need at least two.

For a person like Jiang Lin who is still growing, if he eats too little, his growth will be stunted, so Jiang Lin used to eat three to four sticks a day.

The taste of this worst-quality nutritional cream is not like its name at all, it is not a cream at all, the feeling of eating it in the mouth, in Jiang Lin's words, is like eating a sock, Of course this sock has no smell.

"Okay, let's take a look at the cube you picked up earlier." The system tried hard to make its voice appear cute.

Jiang Lin struggled to swallow the nutritional socks... no, after swallowing the nutritional cream, he picked up the satchel on the ground and came to his workbench.

Workbench is the name Jiang Lin gave to this metal table. In fact, there is only such a relatively large flat surface in the whole room.By the way, there is another larger plane, which is Jiang Lin's bed.

There are various messy parts piled up on the metal table at the moment, and there are many strange-shaped tools.

When Jiang Lin was five or six years old, the old man would go out every now and then. Although he didn't know what he was going out for, whenever the old man came back from outside, he would always bring some "toys" for Jiang Lin.

Sometimes it was a tri-titanium alloy, sometimes it was a bio-battery, and the most exaggerated thing was that he once gave Jiang Lin a miniature self-coordinating energy core.

What does the micro self-coordinated energy core do?To put it simply, when people want to build certain functional buildings in the galaxy, this thing is the basic core to activate these functions.

To put it more simply, in Jiang Lin's words from his previous life, this thing is equivalent to a miniature nuclear power plant.

Although the radioactive material in this thing has been removed, no normal parent would treat this thing as a toy and throw it to the child at home, no matter how old the child is.

……

Jiang Lin took out the metal cube he picked up from his bag, and carefully wiped off the dust and metal debris on it, revealing the original color of the metal cube, which was a silver-white color.

Jiang Lin, who has been playing with metal since he was a child, discovered that it was a silver-like super metal.

This metal is extracted from a kind of water borax. Because of its good ductility and electrical conductivity, it is a commonly used material for various components.

However, this is the first time Jiang Lin has seen this square-shaped silver-like supermetal, and the volume and weight are obviously wrong. Jiang Lin instinctively feels that the inside may be hollow.

There happened to be a photoelectric ion saw at hand, so Jiang Lin picked it up and sawed on it.

Taking off the saw, he found that the bottom was still silver-like metal. Jiang Lin thought about it and sawed down a section hard.

This time it was sawed through, but something inside was shaken by the light, and a light blue light flashed past.Jiang Lin naturally saw the blue color, and excitedly enlarged the opening he sawed just now, and pinched the inside with two fingers.

Carefully taking the object out and putting it in his hand, Jiang Lin looked at it. It was a flat object with a diameter of no more than ten centimeters, and there were symmetrical protrusions like wings on both sides of the object.

Jiang Lin had never seen this thing before, and he asked in his mind: "Is this a necessity for your coming-of-age ceremony?"

"Why did the connection weaken so quickly after you separated it?"

"Don't be so cute, it looks like you got caught blind again this time." While thinking this way, Jiang Lin scanned the oblate object with the scanning function on the wristband computer.

In Jiang Lin's previous life, there was a saying circulating on the Internet: If you don't decide on internal affairs, ask a certain degree; if you don't decide on foreign affairs, ask a certain valley.This sentence is also applicable today in interstellar civilization.

After a while, the search engine gave the answer.

This is a game device from 500 years ago, which is now a relatively rare antique category.

Jiang Lin's eyes lit up when he saw the word "Antique".

What do antiques say?
It means it is old.

It also means it's expensive.

Expensive means that you can sell a lot of federal coins. Although you need to pay a certain deposit for online transactions, if the item is expensive enough, it will be enough to make up for the loss of the deposit.

Jiang Lin clicked a few times on the virtual screen, and the recent transaction information and acquisition information about this old game device popped up.

20 federal currency?Jiang Lin blinked his eyes to make sure that he was not mistaken. It seemed that it was finally his turn to flourish.

According to the information provided above, Jiang Lin found a bump on the right wing of the object, pressed it, and sure enough...no response.

The buyer's acquisition requirements are clearly written, it must be able to be turned on, if it is broken, then he is only willing to pay [-] federal coins.

The difference between 20 and [-] is too big.

After looking up some information on the Internet, Jiang Lin carefully checked this thing, and felt that it didn't seem to be broken, and it might be because the energy was exhausted that it couldn't be turned on.

Looking at the interface, the low-frequency voltage should be used before. Now the entire galaxy, even a garbage star like Oort, has used high-frequency compressed electricity.Jiang Lin hooked out a large box under the table with his feet, and there was also a pile of junk inside.

After rummaging through, Jiang Lin found a power converter inside, plugged the game device into the converter, and after a while, the sides of the wings of the antique game machine lit up in a beautiful blue color.

It seems that when I took this thing out just now, I must have touched the switch button, so the last bit of energy was consumed, and that's how the blue color appeared.

Jiang Lin carefully put the antique game console aside, checked the other things he picked up in the bag one by one, and put them away in different categories. When he saved enough, he could go to the thrift store to sell them for replacement. A federal currency.

After the old man fell ill, Jiang Lin relied on this business to maintain his and the old man's daily expenses.

After all this work, it's getting late.In fact, entertainment is very developed in the interstellar civilization, but most of the entertainment items have to be charged. Now Jiang Lin doesn't have that spare money. He really doesn't know what to do except go to bed early.

"You can still chat with me." The system said at the right time.

Jiang Lin covered his head, "Then I might as well sleep."
