129: Chapter 129: Excessive (Added for book friend, just call Mad Xiao Hao) (Update 33) 129: Chapter 129: Excessive (Added for book friend, just call Mad Xiao Hao) (Update 33) Hai Yi had a look of displeasure on her face and finally answered reluctantly.
“Got it, you miser.”
Zhang Mu imdiately responded to Su Mo with an apologetic smile.
“Don’t take it to heart, sir.
She’s just joking.
We’ll start the repair for you right away.”
“Hmm, the ammunition and fuel need to be fully replenished, and if there’s extra, let take so with .”
Su Mo’s expression eased slightly as he replied.
As for the fuel, it was best to take so with him, since the fuel quality used by the second-generation chas was higher than that of the first-generation chas, and their team didn’t have any reserve of this stuff.
“Tsk, won’t let people dismantle, but so many demands.”
Hai Yi muttered softly.
Su Mo was increasingly speechless, though he didn’t retort anything.
Soon Hai Yi started the repair, with Su Mo watching closely as she dismantled the parts.
Not to ntion anything else, if one were to look at the technical aspect, Hai Yi’s proficiency with chas was indeed far superior to Qin Wang’s.
Her movents were very agile, and with many professional maintenance tools available here, precision repairs could be perford.
When Hai Yi entered the working State, her entire deanor underwent a drastic change, with a ticulous expression.
It had to be said that watching Hai Yi repair the cha was indeed a pleasing sight, her movents for replacing components were extrely practiced.
In just over three hours, all the damaged parts on the left shoulder of the Azure cha had been replaced by her.
However, Hai Yi didn’t stop there.
She took full responsibility and conducted a comprehensive check of the entire cha, perford thorough maintenance on it, adding oil where needed, and if any external armor was deford, she would use a special machine for micro-resculpting….
After about ten hours of toil, Hai Yi finally finished the maintenance of the cha.
She also operated a universal chanical arm suspended from the top of the factory, loading the cha’s abdominal storage with anti-missiles and filling the close-range rifle with full ammunition, while also topping off the fuel.
Lastly, she got Su Mo a large box of fuel.
Although it was high-concentration liquid fuel used by the second-generation cha, it was not indiscriminately added.
Instead, fuel solution rods were used, inserting them one by one, with five rods in total for full State.
The advantages of this fuel addition thod upgrade were convenience in replacent and significantly improved safety, along with a substantial increase in endurance.
However, the downside was also clear: only fuel rods of the corresponding model could be added.
Su Mo looked at the cha, which was now in brand-new condition after maintenance, and was very satisfied.
“Hard work.”
“What’s there to be hard about?
It’s been a while since I’ve gotten my hands on such a great cha.
Li Mu, prepare the bill.”
Hai Yi looked thoroughly pleased, though she didn’t forget to signal Li Mu with a special glance.
“Alright.”
Li Mu, getting the hint, quickly ran off to one side.
“Prepare the bill?”
Su Mo looked at Hai Yi, puzzled.
“Just sign your na later, all the wear and tear and costs of repairing the cha will be borne by your team,” Hai Yi replied in a good mood.
Su Mo was speechless, but it seed there was nothing wrong with her statent.
If people could get free repairs all the ti, many wouldn’t take care of their equipnt, and it also strengthened the players’ sense of belonging to their teams.
After all, there’s a saying that goes, “Eating soone else’s food softens the tongue, taking soone else’s money shortens the hand.”
Soon Li Mu ca running over with a list, handing it to Su Mo with a cheerful smile.
“Mr.
Supervisor, just sign here.”
Su Mo looked at the lengthy list, and his head started to ache from reading it.
Did they use so many things?
Written at the end of the list was the total maintenance cost: 36,172 yuan.
This doesn’t even include the shoulder parts that he brought himself.
“This expensive?”
“Expensive?
This is considered cheap.
The parts and materials used in your cha are the best in the Legion, and we don’t have much reserve of so materials.
Using them up and only charging you this much is a bargain.
You haven’t seen the repair costs for the big guys, let give you an example.
Take the ship that Group Twelve worked on last ti, not even talking about repairs, just refueling it once costs 500,000.”
Hai Yi gave off the air of doing Su Mo a favor.
“I understand all that you’ve said, but there’s sothing I don’t get.
Why does it say 20,000 for manual labor?”
Su Mo interrupted Hai Yi calmly, pointing at an item sandwiched in the dense list of materials.
“Ha, ha, there is?
Don’t they say that skill is priceless?”
Hai Yi revealed an extrely awkward smile, complaining inwardly that this guy was such a tough nut to crack.
She turned her head to look at Li Mu, glaring at him with a “what do we do now” expression.
Li Mu also looked innocent, as he had already shrunk that line of text to the smallest font size possible.
Although Su Mo didn’t enjoy negotiating and had sowhat low emotional intelligence, it didn’t an his IQ was lacking.
He spoke lightly, “Change it.”
“Ha ha, my mistake, I accidentally added an extra zero.
Let’s reprint it!”
“I’ll reprint it right away.”
“Hold on, even 2,000 is too expensive.”
Su Mo replied without a second thought, recalling when he glanced at the bill Qin Wang had made for repairing his own cha.
He clearly rembered it listed a manual labor charge of 200.
The guild itself employed people, so maintenance was part of their job, and the manual labor charge was only a little extra for living players, much like combat players received a combat subsidy.
“That’s too much, let’s be reasonable.”
Hai Yi glared at Su Mo in annoyance.
“Cut it in half.”
Su Mo extended his hand, proposing a very fair price.
Hai Yi was on the verge of going berserk, continuously muttering complaints under her breath.
“You think you’re dealing with beggars, that’s just too much…”
Li Mu quickly grabbed Hai Yi, putting on a flattering smile and said, “Please don’t be angry supervisor, she’s just like that, okay then, one thousand…”
Su Mo didn’t care, as it was not his own money he was spending.
But he still needed to be frugal when necessary; he couldn’t afford to be a sucker.
A mont later, Su Mo left while carrying the fuel tank, piloting the maintained cha.
Hai Yi’s angry complaints followed him continuously.
“Tightwad, drinking cold water…”
“…”
…
The next day, Su Mo smoothly returned to the Dawn City camp and drove his cha into its designated hangar.
He pressed the switch, closing the hangar gate, and then tapped his bracelet to choose to log out of the ga!
After a dizzying sensation, Su Mo’s consciousness returned to reality.
He took off the ga helt, stood up, and stretched his limbs a bit.
He had surpassed his online ti limit again, making his body sowhat stiff.
To be honest, the ga helt wasn’t as comfortable as the ga cabin, but the ga cabin was simply beyond Su Mo’s financial reach at the mont.
Right now, Su Mo’s priority was to purchase a ga helt and take it back to his apartnt.
However, a single helt also cost a thousand bucks, which he could barely afford.
But if he bought it, he figured he’d be eating dirt for the rest of the month.
