After inviting the person to sit down in the hall, he took out the homemade water heater and poured the person a glass of boiled water.

"Is this... boiling water?" Dai Xingyan was a little surprised, "Your living habits are very good."

"It's not bad," Qu Jianlei replied casually. In fact, he was a little regretful that there was no tea here.

Dai Xingyan rolled her eyes, becoming more and more certain that the other party should be from Central City.

Not to mention that only Central City can have reformed warriors, just these little habits that you carry with you, it shows that the other party has a good background.

"It's a pity that we don't have tangerine peel," Dai Xingyan said regretfully. "It tastes good when brewed with boiling water... I'll get you some later?"

Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes, "Are there any leaves that can be brewed? Baked and processed ones."

"Huh?" Dai Xingyan glanced at him in surprise, "Tea... have you drank it?"

"Tea?" Qu Jianlei was also shocked when he heard this. This was definitely a Chinese pronunciation.

He suppressed his curiosity and said, "Can you do it?"

"This... is a bit difficult," Dai Xingyan shook her head regretfully, "It's rare in Central City."

She did not use "above" to refer to it, but directly said the three words "Central City".

Qu Jianlei blinked, "Are you familiar with Central City?"

Chapter 130 New Ways to Make Money (Second update to greet the cute duck blood fans)

Dai Xingyan shook her head slightly, and instead of answering Qu Jianlei's question, she asked another question.

"How well do you master the theory of mechanical maintenance?"

Qu Jianlei hesitated, but decided to be more modest, "It's not particularly bad, mainly because I read more books."

Dai Xingyan asked directly, "Do you have any research or... theory of your own?"

"Well... I have some ideas," Qu Jianlei answered uncertainly.

The original technology of the wasteland is definitely stronger than that of Blue Star, but civilizations with different development stages cannot follow the same path.

He believed that he could still sort out something by combining some of Blue Star's ideas, "I just don't know if it's suitable?"

Dai Xingyan thought that the other party was worried about leaking some secrets of Central City.

She said simply, "I hope you can write some articles and submit them to Central City... There are no publications in Tianzi District."

There are no publications in Tianzi District? Qu Jianlei was stunned again when he heard this, "Are there no publications in the seven residential areas below?"

"Of course," Dai Xingyan replied without hesitation, "Originally, Tianzi District wanted to publish a few publications, but..."

She did not continue, but it goes without saying that the "information barrier" is really a lie?

"Submit..." Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment, he was a little moved, making money like this is what he yearned for most.

However, there is still a question, "Is this thing profitable?"

"The royalties won't be much," Dai Xingyan replied seriously, "but we have subsidies in Beijing!"

Competition among the four capitals is ubiquitous, and in terms of academics, Beijing is more competitive.

Houjing's economic strength is very strong and its inheritance is orderly, but precisely because of this, it is difficult for technical talents to grow.

Occasionally, if a few talents emerge, Taidu will spend a lot of money to poach them. After all, in Tianzi District, Taidu is the center.

Houjing could not fully compete with Taidu, but after Dai Xingyan took office, he applied for special-purpose funds.

Her request to Qu Jianlei is: As long as you put up the "Beijing" logo, we will provide subsidies after the manuscript is submitted.

It doesn't matter where you are from, as long as you think you are in Houjing.

As for the possibility that the other party will be poached by Taidu, Dai Xingyan thinks the possibility is very low and there is no need to consider it at the moment.

First of all, there is still a question mark about the strength of this simple base. It cannot be said that it is strong in practical skills, but it is just as strong in theory.

Secondly, this person is at least a reform warrior, but he willingly lives in the suburbs, which shows that he doesn't attach much importance to treatment.

"How to calculate the subsidy?" Qu Jianlei asked with interest. If the subsidy is large enough, believe it or not, I will write Houjing into bankruptcy?

Dai Xingyan answered without hesitation, "It depends on the quantity and the type of journal it is published in..."

Professional articles are published here, which is similar to that of Blue Star - it is not surprising that similar mechanisms appear when civilization develops to a certain stage.

Qu Jianlei calculated that the subsidy he could get for a one-page article was about twenty to one hundred silver dollars.

However, for top journals, it is not so easy to write a manuscript, and he does not have a good grasp of the content in it.

So he said, "Well, how about you help me submit the manuscript and decide which one to choose?"

"Shall I vote for you?" Dai Xingyan was overjoyed when she heard this.

She repeatedly emphasized that she should wear the label of "Beijing" because she was afraid that this result would not be considered as a "Beijing" - she was from Central City.

If she helped deliver the manuscript, the credit would be as solid as it could be. "You believe in me so much?"

"Shouldn't I believe you?" Qu Jianlei gave her a very strange look, "Are you going to take it as your own?"

"How is this possible?" Dai Xingyan hurriedly waved her hands and snatched the research results of the reformed warriors. Was it because she thought she would live longer?

Seriously, she was a little curious, "Are there many such things?"

Qu Jianlei spread his hands and answered helplessly, "I have never submitted a manuscript. If you ask me, who should I ask?"

Dai Xingyan asked in confusion, "In this case, how could you have thought of this possibility?"

Is this hard to imagine? Qu Jianlei was speechless. He really didn't hear too much about this kind of scandal in Blue Star.

After thinking for a moment, he replied, "Don't think too highly of human nature."

"That makes sense!" Dai Xingyan gave a thumbs up, "I find that you are very smart in looking at issues."

Qu Jianlei smiled disapprovingly, "When can I submit my manuscript?"

"Any time," Dai Xingyan replied without hesitation, "Just go to the Maintenance Engineers Association to find me."

"That's okay," Qu Jianlei nodded, "By the way, can you get the training resources?"

He had already heard from Bentley that Tiangong Maintenance Factory used its cultivation resources to make amends, and thought it was a good idea.

If he makes money through daily maintenance, it is unlikely that he will propose such conditions, and ordinary forces will not be able to obtain training resources.

Therefore, in the near future, he will not be short of silver coins. He will have to find some big forces to acquire cultivation resources.

"Cultivation resources..." Dai Xingyan frowned in embarrassment, "I'll work hard, how much do you need?"

"Just exchange the subsidy for training resources," Qu Jianlei's request was not high, "I'm not short of money."

Dai Xingyan nodded when he heard this. For such a request, it is indeed not too high. The Dai family still has some energy.

However, her curiosity aroused again, "Are you lacking training resources?"

This question was still a matter of conversation, but Qu Jianlei had become accustomed to her way of speaking.

To be honest, he prefers this direct communication method.

"Is it normal for this kind of situation to happen? For example, we may have provoked someone..."

"For another example, we are undergoing some kind of test...what do you think the reason is?"

"I won't guess anymore," Dai Xingyan shook her head simply, "So there are so many possibilities?"

You obviously haven't read the online novel! Qu Jianlei nodded, "Of course."

"Okay, that's settled," Dai Xingyan nodded, "How long will it take you to write it?"

Before Qu Jianlei had time to answer, Hua Xiezi rushed in, "Well...there's a little problem."

"I know," Qu Jianlei nodded and looked at Dai Xingyan again, "If it's quick, it will only take a few days."

"How many days?" Dai Xingyan was stunned when she heard this, "Isn't it calculated by month?"

When she came to her senses, the other party had already left, so she asked Hua Xiezi.

"Jian Lei...does he like to brag?"

"This question is very rude," Hua Xingzi frowned, but finally said, "He has always been conservative in his speech."

"That's great," Dai Xingyan picked up the cup and drank the water in it in one breath, "Okay, I'm leaving then."

However, she did not expect that it would be a month later when she received the manuscript.

Qu Jianlei's main focus was on helping Bentley calculate the appropriate exercises.

An accident did occur this time, but Bentley was not greatly affected, and even he didn't care much about it.

Compared to a few months ago when things were constantly going wrong, it's much better now, isn't it?

Qu Jianlei, on the other hand, gave full play to his spirit of pursuing and fighting fiercely, and finally perfected the method after ten days.

He spent another five days to roughly confirm that there were no big flaws in this technique.

Before he could celebrate, he was pestered by Flower Scorpion, "Where's mine?"

"Don't rush me," Qu Jianlei was speechless, "It will be fine soon, but you need to borrow a B-grade crystal from Bentley."
