Soul Mechanic [Interstellar]

[Assistant Mu vs Captain Chu]

Mu Qiu did not expect that there would be a follow-up to the biscuit incident.

The next day, as soon as he entered the infirmary, Elsa eagerly came up and said, "Autumn, can you go to the cafeteria's workshop with me to take a look? Daddy is very interested in your solar panels! "

Of course Mu Qiu wouldn't refuse, he was waiting for such an opportunity-even if it involved a lot of twists and turns, maybe a trip for nothing, he was still willing to try.

After all, Mu Qiu came to the Tianlong team for nearly a month. This was his first time in the canteen of the military area.

The operating room of the canteen has only one large room, which is more than 500 square meters in size, and the height is more than three times that of a normal house. A dozen large machines were placed against the wall, and they were rumbling one after another; the fresh-keeping cabinets facing the door were piled up disorderly with various ingredients, and boxes of nutrients with different labels were placed on the cooking table.

—Although it is not as clean and quiet as imagined, it is a bit more humane.

Elsa's father and his colleagues stood together in groups, looking at the two young people who were completely out of tune with the operating room environment with interest.

"Good morning everyone." Mu Qiu greeted everyone politely.

Elsa's father was a middle-aged man with thick curly hair. He was not tall but very strong, and his bronzed face showed signs of time.

"Your name is Mu Qiu? I'm Yase, and I'm in charge of this workshop for now."

Uncle Yase came up and enthusiastically gave Mu Qiu a big slap. If he hadn't reacted quickly, 80% of them would be photographed on the ground.

Mu Qiu was embarrassed slightly, and said in greeting, "Hello, Uncle Yase, I often hear Elsa mention you."

"Really? Let me guess... Little Aini must complain to you that I love to drink bars? Or just like to brag with those old guys! Hahaha..." When she mentioned her daughter Yser involuntarily laughed heartily.

Mu Qiu touched his nose, and said in his heart: You are very accurate in your guess!

Elsa pouted and complained: "Daddy, I've grown up, so I can't call me a nickname in front of my friends."

"Okay, okay, "Honorable Elsa Guide", okay?" The good father quickly compromised.

Elsa's beautiful face couldn't be stretched anymore, and she burst out laughing.

Seeing the warm interaction between father and daughter, Mu Qiu smiled involuntarily.

Uncle Yser squinted his eyes and looked him up and down. He laughed and praised: "What a handsome young man! Speaking of which, can your solar energy thing be made here? If it can be done, I don't know how to do it. How many energy boards are saved!"

Mu Qiu paused and said straightforwardly: "Uncle Yase, it is not difficult to install solar panels, but—"

"Well then!" Uncle Yser interrupted him.

Mu Qiu smiled and explained calmly: "Although the installation steps are simple, the procedures are a bit troublesome. After all, this is a military base. According to regulations, you must apply to the person in charge here and obtain the consent of the army commander. If there is no relevant approval. I can’t change it at will, I hope you can understand.”

-You know, just the energy panel in the cafeteria operation room, I don't know how many people's interests will be involved.

Uncle Yase scratched his head and asked in amazement: "Isn't the highest person in charge the Chu boy? Why, what approval do I have to ask him for?"

Mu Qiu nodded and emphasized: "This is very important."

"Yeah, daddy, you should have told Captain Chu in advance, this is all right, if he disagrees, Qiu will go this trip in vain." Elsa took her father's arm, half reproach Said half coquettishly.

"Oh, I don't know!" Yser scratched his beard, rarely showing apologetic expression, "It's okay, I'll tell Boy Chu now, he will definitely agree."

Uncle Yser clicked on the terminal and connected to Chu Qingtian's video number.

The other end was quickly picked up.

"Uncle Yser, what's the matter?" Chu Qingtian seemed to be quite familiar with Yser, and his words showed a sense of closeness.

Mu Qiu's angle couldn't see the projection, only the clear male voice could be heard, which was unexpectedly clear and beautiful.

"Chu boy, Xiao Aini came back yesterday and told me that if our machines were replaced with solar power things, it would save a lot of money. If that's not the case, I would ask Mr. Mu to come over and get it. In the end, he told me to ask for your approval. …"

Uncle Yser chose to talk about the matter, and Chu Qingtian quickly grasped his core meaning.

"Uncle Yase, is Assistant Mu Qiu here?" Chu Qingtian asked calmly.

"Here!" Yser replied in a loud voice.

"Please let him talk to me." Chu Qingtian's tone unconsciously revealed the courage of the decision maker.

"Yes!" Uncle Yser replied and adjusted the virtual screen to Mu Qiu's direction.

Before Mu Qiu could react, an image of a man appeared in front of him-his tall body was wrapped in a stiff military uniform, his stiff facial features were as handsome as a knife cut, and the strong sentinel aura seemed to come through the screen.

At the same time, the fair-skinned and exquisite Asian youth also broke into Captain Chu's sight-the video came too suddenly, Mu Qiu was visibly surprised, and the flashing brown eyes seemed to be embarrassed to stare at the man. In the eyes of the other party, Qiu Kan was a few years younger than his actual age, and looked like a gentle and harmless young boy.

Chu Qingtian curled up the corners of his lips, with a bit of joking in his deep eyes.

Mu Qiu lowered his eyelids subconsciously and coughed slightly to hide his embarrassment.

"Hello, Captain Mu." Chu Qingtian was natural, with a clear smile in his clear voice.

Perhaps it was because of wearing the military uniform. Although Chu Qingtian still looked careless, he still gave people a sense of oppression that was difficult to resist.

Mu Qiu stood up straight unconsciously, adjusted himself to the state of reporting to the instructor, and calmly replied, "Hello, Captain Chu."

Chu Qingtian turned the stylus in his hand and slowly said: "I don't want to waste time, Captain, please state your thoughts to me in the most concise language."

With such an arrogant attitude, Mu Qiu really wanted to turn off the video and leave.

Of course, he did not do that. Instead, he said as concisely as possible: "The Tianlong-3 satellite has developed solar energy resources. If solar energy is used to replace energy panels according to local conditions, it will undoubtedly save a lot of military expenditure."

Chu Qingtian raised his eyebrows, "Success rate?"

"One hundred percent." Mu Qiu didn't hesitate.

Chu Qingtian evoked a smile of unknown meaning, "Mu'Assistant', you are very confident."

Mu Qiu tightened his lips and replied in a cold voice: "You may not know that I used to be a mechanic before becoming an assistant to Wizard Elsa. Of course, I still am."

Chu Qingtian raised his eyebrows, not much conscious of being the culprit, "If it were as simple as you said, the Rhine family would have already gone bankrupt."

Rheinland Group is the largest manufacturer of energy panels in the federation. Of course, Mu Qiu heard the ridicule in Chu Qingtian's words, but he ignored it—the quality of being a professional mechanic required him to seize every opportunity, rather than being arrogant.

Therefore, Mu Qiu suppressed the annoyance in his heart and explained as calmly as possible: "The reason why the energy board is expensive is not because of the lack of federal energy. On the contrary, energy is everywhere in the era of the universe. However, energy storage devices The technical requirements are quite high, so energy panels are so expensive."

Chu Qingtian raised his eyebrows and motioned for him to continue.

"If a place has relatively sufficient natural energy, then the non-mobile energy-consuming equipment in that place does not actually need energy storage devices as an intermediary, such as the assembly line machine in the operation room of the canteen of the Tianlong 3 satellite military area."

Chu Qingtian squinted his eyes and was silent for a moment, and then said lightly, "Okay, then do it."

Mu Qiu was startled immediately, and looked at the man on the screen with a complicated expression.

The young man's stupefied appearance greatly pleased the man, Chu Qingtian raised the corners of his lips, smiled straight to the bottom of his eyes, and repeated in a good mood: "I agree, Mr. Mechanic."

Mu Qiu was speechless, so he agreed to such a big matter easily? Do you really need to report to Shangfeng? Where did he come from?

Encountering such an officer who does not play cards according to common sense, it is simply... hard to say.

—

Anyway, since Chu Qingtian has spoken, Mu Qiu doesn't have to worry about the rest. He only needs to focus on the assembly and replacement of solar energy equipment.

The young man, who had always been steady and rigorous, was almost trembling with excitement the moment he got the working clamp, as if he had been given a magical magic, and the blood belonging to the mechanic was reactivated in his body.

As the chief student of the Military Academy, Mu Qiu's professional quality is absolutely excellent, not to mention that his major is just in the field of power and new energy. It is not difficult for him to transform the energy supply in the operation room.

This work took only half a month from the preliminary design and material preparation to the later installation and commissioning, and the final result was close to perfect.

Yser blushed with joy, "These guys look so cool, Mu kid did a good job!" The thick beard trembled with laughter, which was very interesting.

"Of course, Qiu is the most powerful mechanic in the military academy?" Elsa held her neck up, looking like Yourong Yan.

"Mechanic?" Uncle Yser was surprised. "Doesn't the Military Academy teach students to boot armors and win battles? There are also special classes to teach people to repair?"

Mu Qiu smiled awkwardly, and simply gave up the explanation-the problem of professional unpopularity has been with him for five years, and it seems that it will continue to continue.

Speaking of it, the profession of mechanics is rarely known in the Federation, and many departments do not have specialized mechanic positions.

Take the Tianlong team as an example. The thousands of service personnel on the top and the bottom do not even have a professionally trained mechanic. It seems unbelievable to say it. However, this is indeed a fact, and this situation is very important in the federal army. universal.

Most people have always had a misunderstanding about mechanics. They think that the job of a mechanic is to repair machines and replace parts, and the most powerful thing is to do spacecraft maintenance.

Other staff in these tasks can take part-time jobs, and there is no need to set up special positions at all. Naturally, no one is willing to spend a lot of time and energy on learning.

Therefore, the profession of mechanics is becoming less popular in the Federation.

However, only those who have studied with great concentration can realize that this industry is actually promising.

Mu Qiu will never forget his original intention of choosing this profession-to build the best spaceship and rescue the missing parents-this goal has not wavered until now.
