Chapter 33 How much can this be sold for? It's not worth much.
Su Nian hurried into the cafeteria and was instantly shocked by the scene in front of her. The cafeteria was extremely spacious, and the bright lights made every corner clearly visible.
Rows of intelligent robots were busy shuttling between the tables, providing services to the students. A huge electronic screen displayed a variety of recipes.
"Synthetic vegetable fried rice, 30 credits per serving."
"Energy noodles, 25 credits per bowl."
"Synthetic vegetable salad, 20 credits per serving."
Looking further up, "Pure organic vegetable salad, 80 credits per serving."
"Pure natural beef meal, 200 credit points per serving."
Su Nian looked at the prices and couldn't help but be shocked. She knew that she was short of money, so she could only walk to the window selling nutrient solution.
"Give me a dose of nutrient solution." Su Nian said.
The robot scanned her information and mechanically replied, "5 credit points per copy."
Su Nian gritted his teeth, thinking about stocking up more, and then said, "Give me ten servings."
The robot seemed to notice her thinness and difficulty, and said, "We have a promotion now, buy ten get one free."
A hint of surprise flashed in Su Nian's eyes, and she quickly thanked him.
As she left the cafeteria carrying a bag of nutrient solution, she silently calculated that the nutrient solution would be enough to sustain her in the dormitory for a while and she wouldn't have to come to the cafeteria frequently to consume it.
Su Nian held the nutrient solution tightly in her hand. The bag of nutrient solution seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and her slender fingers turned slightly white. The afternoon sun was hot and strong, and it sprinkled on her mercilessly. Sweat kept sliding down her forehead, soaking her hair. Her steps were firm but slightly heavy, and each step left a shallow footprint on the ground.
Along the way, she passed by dormitory buildings of different shapes without looking away. Some of these dormitory buildings were towering into the sky, like sharp swords piercing the sky, with huge transparent glass inlaid on the outer walls, reflecting colorful light; some were peculiar in shape, like a huge honeycomb, with densely packed windows scattered in an orderly manner.
Finally, after walking past several dormitory buildings full of futuristic feeling, she saw a boy walking out of the dormitory building in front of her. The boy was tall, handsome, and his eyes were a little lazy. He was dragging a bulky electronic product in his hand. The product seemed to be a huge curved screen, and the edge of the screen was inlaid with glimmering metal lines. The mysterious and gorgeous light flowed between the metal lines, presenting an amazing sense of technology.
The boy frowned slightly and called the garbage robot with his optical brain. Soon, the garbage robot's metallic and emotionless voice rang in the air: "The garbage fee for this time is 20 credit points."
When Su Nian heard this, he hurried forward and said anxiously, "Give me this garbage, I'll help carry it away."
The boy turned his head and his eyes fell on Su Nian. He recognized her instantly. After all, her shabby and unique clothes were quite conspicuous in the materials class. He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled and thought to himself, "Why would this girl want this broken thing?"
"It's you, Su Nian. What do you want this thing for?" the boy asked curiously, with a hint of confusion in his tone.
Su Nian raised her head and said in surprise: "Do you know me?"
The boy smiled and said, "My name is Cheng Yi, and we are taking the materials class together today."
Su Nian suddenly realized, and then answered without hesitation: "Take it and sell it."
The boy frowned, an expression of disbelief on his face, and said, "How much can this be sold for? It's worthless. You can only get a few dozen credit points at most. You've gone through so much trouble, is it worth it?" He thought to himself, this girl is too desperate. For a few dozen credit points, she would not let go of such junk.
When Su Nian heard that there were dozens of credit points, her eyes lit up instantly, like a bright light suddenly lit up in the darkness, and she said excitedly: "Dozens of credit points are also very good! For me, the more the better." Her voice trembled slightly with excitement, as if these dozens of credit points were a huge fortune.
Cheng Yi's eyes involuntarily fell on the nutrient solution in her hand. There was not much nutrient solution in the bag, and he felt pity for her. "This girl is so pitiful. She can only live on nutrient solution, and she works so hard for a few dozen credit points." He thought secretly.
"Your life is really not easy." Cheng Yi couldn't help but say, with a hint of sympathy in his tone.
Su Nian didn't care, and a bright smile bloomed on her face. That smile was as warm as the sun, but also a bit stubborn. "It's okay, any money I can earn is good. If you have something like this to throw away in the future, call me and I'll help carry it away." Her voice was crisp and firm, as if no difficulty could stop her determination.
Cheng Yi shook his head helplessly. Seeing her expectant eyes, his heart softened and he handed the bulky electronic product to Su Nian. "Okay, then you take it. Be careful and don't tire yourself out."
Su Nian took it with great effort. The heavy object made her body sway slightly, but she quickly stabilized herself. Her face was full of happy smiles, as if she had obtained a precious treasure.
"Thank you!" After saying that, she turned around and continued walking towards the dormitory with firm steps. Her steps seemed to become lighter, leaving Cheng Yi standing there looking at her back with mixed feelings.
