Chapter 9: bet

Haiden's meal was so large that it surprised the Sutans, but what surprised Sutan even more was that Hayden was more than that.
He repairs small household dishwashers, fertilizes and cares for flower plants in the home, and even suggests color matching for the cloth cloth bags sewn by the robot Suning.
This all-round look made the robot dad sigh and privately said to Su Tan, "If Hayden is not too thin, he would be a good husband."
Su Tan: "..."
Obviously, in the eyes of Rosewood Planet, Hayden's tall and tall body is not enough to meet the standards of health and beauty.
Su Tan hugs Dad tightly and laughs, "Dad, you think too much."
He took the wrench to the backyard, and a lush small starship was hiding in the middle of the lush woods. At this time, the engine on the right was completely dismantled, and a tall man was leaning down to repair the damage.
Su Tan handed the wrench over and asked curiously, "Can you fix it?" Just looking at the shape, the broken engine was completely smashed into a slump.
Hayden took the wrench, not slack, but holding a spicy cigarette of local specialty of Gulia in his mouth, while squinting at Su Tan with a smile. "Bet?"
Sutan couldn't help laughing. "Success, bet on gambling. But big cousin, you still owe me a space necklace. What do you want to gamble on this time?"
The smile on Hayden's lips was leisurely. Although he fell out of interstellar space because of the accident of the spacecraft, there were a lot of good things around him. He ran out a bracelet from his arms and snapped it in Sutan On the wrist.
Su Tan was a little surprised. He lowered his head and saw that the bracelet clasped on his wrist was shining and studded with precious stones, which almost dazzled to the light under the sun.
For a moment, he looked up and explained to Hayden: "Just laughing and joking, this is too expensive." Then, he hurriedly squeezed his wrists and wanted to take the bracelet off.
However, Hayden raised his hand to stop his movement, and a piece of cigarette caught between his fingertips. The cigarette burned out a long section of soot, shaking it a few times in the air, and then fell on the gem bracelet in the sight of Su Tan.
Su Tan:… violently!
Hayden extinguished the smoke, and continued to repair the starship with ease, and laughed: "Take it away, this is a gift from others, in vain."
Suddenly, Su Tan felt like he had discovered something extraordinary. He frowned slightly and asked, "Where exactly is your army?"
Want to learn to repair a starship, take care of flower plants, and receive gifts? ? ? It's just business corruption.
The smile on Hayden's lips was even worse, and his tone was lazy. "Well, now the military also needs all-round talents."
Sutan sighed with admiration.
He watched Hayden knock down comfortably and skillfully, cleaning up the broken pieces of the hood one by one, revealing the inner core device, and a row of complicated and delicate parts appeared in front of him.
Such a complicated device, not to mention how difficult it is to repair it, I am afraid that even the first step by step intact disassembly is very difficult.
Su Tan proposed: "Are you looking for Abba to help?" For robots, Suning knows more than ten times more than him.
But Hayden shook his head and raised his eyebrow with a smile. "This is a bet between the two of us. Don't worry, I can fix it."
Su Tan: "... you come on."
He helped Hayden spend the whole morning. Although the complicated and complicated parts and circuit structure could see him dizzy, it was not a problem to help hand the wrench beside him.
Busy in the morning, the engine had just been removed less than one-tenth, and Hayden regretted to take the starship back into space and took Su Tan to his house.
Su Tan was sweating from the hot sun. He returned home and took a shower before returning to his room to turn on the computer. He landed on the Star Novel Network and unexpectedly found "The Age of Domination of the Earth [Quick Wear] 》 The number climbed again, and the number of collections rose to 382.
This far exceeded his expectations. For a new article that has just been published without any list and recommendation, this result is already outstanding.
He logged in to the author's backstage and saw that there were a lot of comments under his book, and there was always a reminder icon for a text message flashing at the top of the web page.
Su Tan clicked open and found that it was the website editor Hoshino to sign a contract with himself.
Sign up?
Su Tan searched the Internet and found that Star's signing contract is very fair. The website and the author's income are half open. The editor is fully responsible for the corresponding matters of the author.
He added the Hoshino correspondence number, and he saw a response from the other side in just one second. He quickly passed Sutan's application. The high efficiency made Sutan think that the other party was waiting at the other end of the network all the time.
Hoshino didn't say much. He introduced himself succinctly and briefly, and directly gave him two files. One is the signing process guide and the other is signing the contract.
Su Tanzai read it carefully before filling in his relevant information. He signed his electronic signature at the end of the contract and sent it back to the editor.
Hoshino reviewed the contract and found that Su Tan was a person from the planet Rose, he was very surprised.
"Are you rose?"
Su Tan tapped on the keyboard: "Um."
Hoshino's words replied quickly. "Well, you must have been genetically altered. For so many years, Rose has not produced a big novelist."
His confession was almost straightforward, but the next second, I saw a few words appearing on the screen, "but you must be red."
Su Tan couldn't help but raise his lips and smiled to thank the other person for his trust.
Hoshino worked neatly. After finishing all the signing procedures, the only remaining item is video authentication.
Fortunately, Su's old computer still had a camera function. Su Tan immediately passed the video invitation sent by Hoshino. Somewhat unexpectedly found that a very beautiful royal sister appeared on the computer screen.
An all-black leather skirt completely wrapped her good figure, with an excellent cut that inadvertently exposed fair skin, coupled with hot red lips and domineering eyes, the queen's temperament could be felt through the screen. .
When Hoshino saw Sutan over the camera, he was shocked for a moment, and raised his eyebrows directly and asked, "Little cute, come and tell your sister, are you a minor?"
Su Tan: "No, I have already completed the annual ceremony."
Hoshino didn't believe it, and said firmly: "Don't lie, your figure is like a 10-year-old pupil among Roses."
Su Tan: ... Get on your heart.
Hoshino didn't deliberately make things difficult for him, she found a signing contract and pointed it out to him. "Minors can sign contracts, but they must have the consent of a guardian."
She looked at him with a soft, soothing smile on her red lips. "Hurry up, call your guardian."
Sutan: ...
How he explained, Hoshino didn't believe it, and he had no choice but to call up the dad who was busy making small meatloaf with an apron downstairs.
The robot Suning stood in front of the computer camera, struggling to straighten his metal shell chest, and looked like a dignified head of a family. It spoke cautiously and steadily, "I'm Sutan's father."
At the other end of the network, Hoshino was silent.
She glanced over Su Ning's flour apron in front of her, moved to the rolling pin on the fingers of its steel bars, and looked at Su Tan, her face was helpless and funny.
"Stop it, kid." She raised her red lips, but her exquisite eyebrows revealed her eyes. "Finding a home robot to replace parents, I used it in the third grade of elementary school."
Su Tan: Meow meow?
Hoshino chuckled and said directly: "So, go and call your parents and don't waste your sister's time."
Su Tan: "... He is really my father."
Robot Suning: "I'm his dad !!!"
The two men spoke in unison, glanced at each other, and found each other's eyes a bit speechless.
In the end, it was Suning who reported the two interstellar ID numbers. After Hoshino's verification, they finally verified their identities and finalized the signing of the contract.
Hoshino was very sorry. I did not expect that Su Tan and the Rose people in her impression were so different. She even mistaken Suning for a home robot. Simply, Sun Ning didn't blame her. After accepting her apology, she went downstairs and rushed back to the kitchen.
Hoshino told him: "Work hard to save manuscripts, work harder and harder, raise a fixed readership first, and then leave it to me."
Her explanation was crisp and clear, without the slightest bit of muddled water, which could not be reassured.
In the next few days, Su Tan planned his time, while taking some school courses in a planned way, and attentively started the code word plan.
The deposit of his new book, "Domination of the Earth Age [Quick Wear]" has reached 200,000 words, and there are only three days left until the deadline for the submission of the final "Ancient Earth" topic.
Contributions have begun to heat up completely, and the number of submissions in the last three days showed a blowout trend, which suddenly increased several times. Until the last day, it gradually saturated and stabilized at 1,200 copies.
Among them, many just touched the ancient earth and played a rub ball to submit. This required a long review period of the website to screen and finally select the best ten ancient earth-themed novels for public display on the website homepage.
The scheduled review and publicity time will be two weeks later.
By this time, Su Tan was in no hurry. According to his schedule, he went to school in an orderly manner to study courses of interest, and when he was free, he helped Hayden repair the starship, leaving him only three hours a day to concentrate on his code.
Under such circumstances, his codeword speed is getting faster and faster, and often he can stably save 20,000 words a day.
On the one hand, this is due to the detailed and detailed novel outline and syllabus, so that he can know the clear novel context and plot direction anytime, anywhere. Familiar and smooth.
Whenever he touched the keyboard, his thoughts poured out of his head like a stream of colleagues, and they were smoothly and neatly recorded in the file.
When the deposit reached 300,000 characters, that evening, Su Tan returned from the school, habitually turned on the computer, logged on to the website, and found that there was another message in his mailbox. Open it, it is the editor's reminder.
"Hoshino: Quickly apply !!!!!!"
Sister Yu's irritable tone almost came out through the screen. Su Tan took a quick look at the web link attached to Hoshino, and found that only the last five minutes were left before the application deadline for the website list.
If the author does not apply, it is regarded as an initiative to abstain, and even if the editor is interested, he cannot help the author to win the list, so Hoshino will be so anxious.
Su Tan no longer hesitated, decisively wrote the name of his work at the end of the application list, watching the application list was locked after a minute. Hoshino postponed a message, "You are finally online ..."
Su Tan was a bit sorry, and spent the whole afternoon studying the rules of the website, and especially went to the author forum to learn a lot of related routines and newcomer precautions.
Halfway through, I unexpectedly discovered that my novel was hooked to the forum post title.
"The Age of Domination of the Earth [Quick Wear]"-Which Great God's Vest Is This? "
Discussion in the post was lively.
"I think it's A big! Strong nostalgic and realistic style, the characters are excellent and fun, definitely a small vest that A big secretly opened."
"Don't guess blindly upstairs, A Taizheng is going to give birth. If he can have the energy to open a vest at this time, I will give you both knees. I feel it is a big vest of 'grilled meat stew stick'. Didn't you feel that this is a bit of a mystery similar to the author's name of "Dominate": "Brushing braised meat every day?"
"!!! Upstairs makes sense! I believe it!"
"I also believe +1"
...
For a while, Su Tan was mistaken for another author's rumors spreading enthusiastically. The posts were covered hundreds of floors. All of them were talking about sticks. It was so stupid and naive to think that such a name would not be recognized by readers. come out.
As everyone said, "Barbecue Stew Sticks" had to come out and dismiss the rumor, personally appeared in the post, and the message clarified: "It really isn't me ... I have not eaten braised pork, I really want to eat it."
Seeing her reply, there was another small climax in the amount of replies in the post, but the style of painting became more and more distorted.
"The meat is really good."
"I want to know what is braised pork, sweet? Tart? Spicy? Salty? Hey ~"
"Braised pork is very much looking for ways to do it. Would you like to openly satisfy us?"
...
Su Tan could not help looking at these comments, but he did not expect that a plate of China's most ordinary braised pork would set off a fiery climax in the interstellar space.
Thanks to the fact that they haven't seen fried liver and lobster crayfish, China's countless great foods will definitely conquer the stomachs of these interstellar eaters.
Even his editor Hoshino quietly knocked at him, "... what is the braised pork?"
Su Tan replied steadily: "Then I will make braised pork tonight, as a reader's benefit."
Hoshino returned quickly, "OK!"
He has only been writing for twenty days, the number of words has reached 100,000 words, the collection has passed five hundred, and the comments have exceeded four hundred, all relying on the support and love of readers.
So, he closed the webpage and went downstairs to enter the kitchen, explaining his thoughts to his father.
The robot Suning couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but he gave up the kitchen and looked suspiciously at the movement of Su Tan.
"Son, should I do it for you?" Suning watched Feng Rui's blade wave in Su Tan's hand, and he all mentioned his throat and couldn't help but say.
Su Tan smiled slightly, very determined and calm. "A dad, don't worry."
Huaxia's braised pork is selected from the best pork belly. Although Guilia has a wild boar and has a texture similar to pork belly, Sutan chose this type of meat.
He now puts the whole piece of meat in the boiling hot water, blanches it for a few seconds, then removes it and rinses it in cold water until it is cool, cuts the meat into square pieces, and dries it again to cool and drain.
Seeing this, Suning looked at the white piece of meat and was suspicious. In the end, if he wanted to miss it in his mouth, he did not crack down on the enthusiasm of Su Tan. Instead, he enthusiastically encouraged: "Son, you are great! it's beautiful."
Su Tan couldn't help raising a smile, put the oil in the cold pan, put the spices to stir the fragrance, and then put the white and clean meat pieces in Suning's mouth into the pan and stir-fry.
Suddenly, the hot and spicy bottom of the pot came into contact with the pieces of meat, inspiring a strong aroma. The oil of the pieces of meat was scooped out little by little. Su Tan seized the opportunity and took advantage of other sauces. Stir-fry evenly to color the pieces.
All of a sudden, a violent aroma swept through the kitchen.
Hayden stepped out of the shower and stopped quietly at the kitchen door. The robot Suning found him, moved to the side, moved a seat for him, and couldn't help but admire Hayden: "Look, my son cooks super-class ~ great!"
Hayden raised the corners of his lips, smelling the scent of the nose, and agreed: "Well."
Su Ning glanced at him side by side, suddenly cleared his throat, coughed and said, "Su Tan is already an adult. He is lovely and filial, and his cooking is great ..."
It thought about a lot of the benefits of Sutan, and finally returned to the topic. "... So, his big cousin, Sutan, do you have a suitable friend to introduce him to Sutan?"
Hayden leaned against the door frame. "Introduction?"
Suning coughed, prompting: "Subject." It had no hope of Su Tan finding an object on the planet Gulia, but it did not care about the unexpected star son-in-law!
The robot's dad's eyes were so bright that he looked at Hayden and proposed: "At least it can't be worse than you!"
Looking for a good family man like Hayden.
Hayden listened to its conditions, seriously thought about it, and shook his head: "I'm afraid I can't do that."
He chuckled, and said confidently and calmly: "No one can be better than me."
The author has something to say:
Robot Dad: ... Who gives you confidence? ? ?
