Chapter 8 Invitation
Author: drinking luck
The atmosphere in the prosthetic shop was a little anxious. The woman with two ponytails took off a mechanical arm hanging on the shelf, compared it with her own model, and curled her lips critically:
"The workmanship of this prosthetic arm is not very good. Both the material and performance are very perfunctory. Why do so many people praise your store?"
"Because this is not for you at all."
"you"
"Your prosthesis is the basic model DWA developed by Tox-M Company in 1198. Although the energy level is only T2, it is a product with the lowest metal affinity requirements for human flesh and blood. Once it came out, it was widely used in various places throughout Anning City.
field.
But Tox-M Company is one of the largest arms companies. Of course, yours also falls into the category of arms. My shop sells daily necessities for ordinary people, and they are also peripheral prosthetic frames, some of which are purchased from others.
It doesn’t reflect my level.”
Lin En said calmly.
In recent years, with the development of science and technology, the performance of prostheses has become more and more outstanding. While they have brought great convenience to disabled people, they have also given them extraordinary strength and even attracted the favor of healthy people.
Many people even actively want to amputate their own limbs just to install an arm made of alloy.
In this case, the peripheral prosthetic frame came into being.
There is no need for amputation surgery, no need to connect to human nerves, no need to perform some muscle plug surgery, or inject blood and flesh metal stabilizers to prevent a series of blood and flesh rejection.
Normal people can also wear it, and it can also play a part of the role of prosthetic limbs.
Therefore, prostheses are actually divided into two types: internal prostheses and peripheral prosthetic frames.
A complete peripheral prosthetic framework is also called an exoskeleton.
This means that the woman in front of Lin En is actually a real disabled person.
After saying these words, Linn turned his head to Hans.
He also has prosthetic legs.
It's also an implant type.
".Where's your arm? Did you have surgery to remove it?"
Hans nodded, puffed up his chest slightly, and said proudly: "The Lizard Gang equips each new member with a metal prosthesis. I have given up on this useless piece of shit and embraced the advancement of technology!"
Lin En touched his forehead, and a strange idea suddenly appeared in his mind.
Of course, the operation of a gang requires funds, and it is impossible for this collective to do charity for poor boys.
If his prediction was correct, these severed limbs should have been purchased by special people, but he just didn't know what they were used for.
It doesn't matter.
Let go of the need to help others and respect the fate of others.
The third sister said in surprise: "Do you know each other?"
"A neighbor."
Hans didn't want to talk about the past. For him, he had already started a new life.
The girl took over: "So, since you said that making daily necessities cannot prove your level, why don't you make some high-end prosthetics with strong performance?"
"Because no one buys it." Lin En expertly brewed a pot of green tea for several people. The tea was much clearer than before, with a fragrance that was different from industrial saccharin.
Another plate of fruit was placed.
Hans stared at the plate of fruit, his eyes widened, and he secretly hid a green apple in his sleeve.
"On this old street, the people who come and go are rag collectors, dung collectors, and beggars. They work at the lowest level, and of course they don't have any spare money in their pockets."
"Here, I sell light bulbs, screwdrivers, washing machines, and guns, and the profit is higher than selling prosthetic limbs."
"What I want to do is not decided by me, but by the market."
A sip of hot tea went down her throat, leaving a fragrant aroma on her lips and teeth. The third sister, who was silently sipping the tea, raised her head and said in shock:
“Great tea!”
"What kind of tea is this?"
"Crossfire Green Tea." Lin En shook his sleeves and cut off the tea poured into his bowl. This tea is a kind of green tea that grows in the wilderness. It is processed by special disinfection methods after being collected by hunters. The price is ordinary labor.
More than three times that of tea.
It was a gift from some of his hunter clients and is also available at Ambition Hotel.
This is the first time today.
The third sister finally got serious, leaned forward, and said in a persuasive tone:
"You said that the location of the store limits your performance, so if you move the store to the market, you can make prosthetics?"
Lin En didn't answer in a hurry. He felt a special flavor from these words and his heart tightened.
"What's the meaning?"
"The aroma of wine is also afraid of the depth of the alley."
".I mean, since you are so talented, it would be too much for you to live in this remote old street. Why not join our Lizard Gang? We will also treat you as a brother and we will do something big together."
The third sister leaned forward, her entire upper body became dynamic, her eyes were as charming as silk, and she locked onto Lin En.
Lin En felt a chill.
He seemed to remember Hans saying that this was actually a man.
Hans was also shocked, and felt a strong sense of resentment in his heart.
He only knew that he was here to win over Lin En today, as if he was here to discuss business, so why did he suddenly want to invite him into the Lizard Gang?
Why!
He had worked so hard to get the qualification to join the Lizard Gang, but this opportunity was given to his neighbor so easily?
"Haha." Lin En turned around to put the teapot and said tactfully: "I have no such plan."
"I prefer a comfortable life."
Hans breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's normal for you to think like this." The third sister said again, she expected that Lin En would say this in advance.
"It doesn't matter if you don't want to join the Lizard Gang, but our production capacity of prosthetic limbs is greatly insufficient these days. I hope you can cooperate with us and reject orders from Grundfos and only supply us."
"Logically speaking, residents on the old street have to pay protection fees every month."
"If you accept our proposal, I can waive all your protection fees on behalf of the Lizard Gang.
At the same time, we will also buy a storefront for you in the market and let you move the entire store there. We also went inside to see the store, which is more than twice the area of yours.
The richest people in the entire southeastern area of the firefight area are gathered there, so you don’t have to worry about not being able to sell your prosthetic limbs.”
“Located in Mong Kok, you don’t have to worry about money, and obtaining a household registration in a shanty town is not out of reach.”
Linn was silent.
It seems that he did not receive the order from Grundfos.
They must have been negligent!
He thought for a while and said:
".Give me a few days to think."
"Okay." The third sister stood up and scraped Lin En's neck with her long nails: "I will come back to you in a week."
night.
Lin En rarely continued studying. Instead, he lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking.
From this angle, he could clearly look out the window and see the night sky that was as bright as daylight illuminated by the lights of An Ning City.
Gorgeous and colorful.
But that wasn't the reason for his move.
"If you refuse, you will really be at odds with the Lizard Gang. Everything I do here will be under their noses. They will inevitably give me some shoes."
"I'm just one person. They have so many people and so much equipment. If they really want to fall out, I'll lose."
"But if you agree, you will stand opposite Grundfos and compete with the other party's people."
"bother!"
