Brainoid
Chapter 36 Bargaining
After almost twenty minutes, Anton finally changed Mimi's clothes and came out.
In fact, the new clothes Qi Min chose for Mimi were of relatively everyday styles, a bee-like wide-striped top, brown-pink trousers, and a small cotton-lined jacket. They were mainly to cope with the coming winter. . Because children grow up quickly, they need new clothes every year.
Mimi still runs around trying on new clothes and will never consciously stand in front of the mirror. Fortunately, Qi Min doesn't demand that the little girl can form her own aesthetics, as long as she likes it.
"It's good, that's it. Well -" Qi Min looked at the shopping guide who was chatting with him just now, "How about I get one in this size and one color."
"Wait...wait." Anton quickly grabbed her and said in English deliberately so that others wouldn't understand, "You don't have to buy every color, do you?"
"Why, do you want to try another store?" Qi Min asked helplessly. Just getting Mimi to try on a set of clothes is already a lot of effort. If it fits, why not buy enough at once?
However, Anton is obviously thinking about another problem: "Each of these has three or four colors, and the total is too much. Mimi will grow taller in the next year, why should she spend so much money on clothes?"
Having said that, Qi Min had to buy a lot of new clothes every year when he was a child. She had never been poor when she was a child, and there was no reason for her own daughter to be poor since she was a child.
Qi Min took a deep breath and patted Anton on the shoulder: "It's not much money in total, we can afford it."
"BOURGEOSIE." Anton commented unhappily, but since he was spending money for Mimi, he was still willing to give it. "Why don't you go bargain with that lady and give her a discount?"
Qi Min couldn't help but be a little disdainful of his concept of comparing every penny. She thought that she was now a PI at the University of Science and Technology of China, so she still cared about the little money she could save through this discount? "No need, Mimi is now the daughter of a serious university teacher and deserves to buy clothes at the original price."
"When you wear clothes, who knows whether you bought them at the original price or at a discount?" Anton said, "If you don't know how to bargain, I will tell her myself."
Qi Min thought about it and asked Anton to tell him that he would definitely cut half of it when he came up, and he would still have to deal with it for a long time. Isn't this children's clothing store a vegetable market? So he quickly stopped him and said: "How can you make it clear? Uh... The preferential rules are already written on the notice, so let me tell you."
——
In the end, the children's clothing store gave Mimi a 15% discount on her new clothes, and then bought two pairs of shoes at a 10% discount. Next, it was time to buy Anton the casserole he wanted, but now he had to look at Mimi while carrying large and small bags. It was inconvenient and unsafe to go to a place selling kitchenware.
So Qi Min wrote down Anton's requirements for the model of the casserole, and then asked them to sit in the rest area while he went to the kitchenware area to buy the casserole. Since Qi Min couldn't see Mimi, Anton couldn't recognize all the Chinese characters, so he couldn't read all the Chinese characters. We can only leave the experts idle while the laymen buy pots.
Qi Min came to the kitchenware area alone and felt a headache looking at the various pots with different shapes and functions. She didn't understand why these appliances couldn't be standardized so that they could be easily adapted.
But just buy it according to Anton's needs. Anyway, he doesn't need a high-end pot to make porridge and soup at home. Qi Min originally thought that this should be quite simple, but after looking at two or three stores, he discovered that these casseroles either had glaze on the inside or were too thick, so it was not easy to find a suitable one.
When Qi Min was about to ask the next house, he turned around and saw a somewhat familiar figure.
"Hey, isn't this Qi Min?" The other party recognized her first, and then Qi Min also recognized her. This lady, who was wearing a dark blue stand-up collared cheongsam and a set of jade jewelry, and looked like a rich man, actually It's her high school classmate Du Yalin.
Qi Min had no personal relationship with Du Yalin in high school, but in my impression, Du Yalin didn't seem to be from a rich second generation. But now she is seen holding an older man, who is dressed in a low-key manner but wearing a mechanical watch of a brand that Qi Min does not recognize, which seems to indicate that this high school classmate may have achieved a class leap through marriage.
"Hi!" Qi Min said hello hesitantly, because he was not familiar with him before and didn't know how to address him.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, and you didn't come to the last party." Du Yalin felt comfortable talking to her, "What are you doing now?"
Qi Min didn't even know what kind of gathering her high school classmates had last time. In high school, she was more of a GEEK type. She was far away from the celebrities and socialites in her grade, and she didn't play much with them. "Now... I just work, I think I'm a teacher."
"Being a teacher? It fits your personality quite well." Du Yalin smiled softly, as if her impression of Qi Min was still at the GEEK stage.
But it’s not my fault. Qi Min is still wearing a plaid shirt and jeans when he goes shopping. He looks more and more GEEK.
"By the way, I lost your WeChat account after I changed my phone. Let's add each other again." Du Yalin said again, taking out her phone from PRADA's bag. Qi Min saw that her manicure must be at least two centimeters long.
Qi Min scanned the QR code to add Du Yalin as a friend. He clicked on the circle of friends and saw various travel photos that seemed like he was traveling around the world.
"You have to come to the next party." Du Yalin smiled at her, then she took her male companion and walked away gracefully on stiletto heels.
Qi Min looked through her circle of friends again and couldn't help but sigh that the photo was really beautiful, and Du Yalin was much more beautiful than before after learning to dress up.
——
The fifth store Qi Min asked finally had a pot that met Anton's requirements. She bought a pot, then took Anton and Mimi to the underground chain supermarket to buy fresh vegetables, fruits and meat, and then bought her some snacks according to Mimi's preferences.
Qi Min almost fell down from exhaustion after taking the subway to get so many things home. And because Mimi was used to being carried by her father along the way, even the heaviest casserole was carried by Qi Min.
Fortunately, there is a sofa and a TV when I get home, so I can rest as much as I want. When Anton went to cook, Qi Min lay on the sofa and took out her mobile phone, only to see Ke Yue sending her a WeChat message first.
Ke Yue said on WeChat: "I found that the fluorescent markers in the area where the interface is installed on the rats are not stable enough to support the water maze..."
He added in the second post below: "I tried changing the dye, but it didn't work either."
Qi Min thought about it and realized that learning and memory cannot be completed as quickly as when she did neurophysiological experiments before, and the fluorescent label in the rat brain must last at least long enough to connect to the 256×256×256 micro-brainoid body. Without significant quenching over time, current fluorescent dyes should not be able to do this.
"I'll take a look at this issue tomorrow." Qi Min replied to him.
This kind of material problem cannot be solved by just thinking about it. The stability of biologically harmless organic fluorescent dyes is not very good, so you may have to look for inorganic substances. Qi Min suddenly thought it might be useful to ask Zhang Zhiyong about this matter.
(As usual, asking for recommendation votes?)
