Chapter 206: 2.8 Million Yuan Computer

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Lu Zhou would not dare to buy a $2 million yuan computer online.

First of all, it was not insured. Second, he had to find a professional to assemble it. He had to speak with someone in person.

Thankfully, Professor Li Rongen gave him a phone number. Professor Li said that many professors in the school used this computer store.

The next day, Lu Zhou rode Shi Shang’s bicycle and found the computer store.

When the computer store owner saw Lu Zhou’s computer configuration list, he asked, “Who wrote this configuration for you?”

The owner’s name was Li Jun. He was tall, skinny, and looked around 30 years old. One could tell from his glasses that he used to code.

Lu Zhou replied, “A friend.”

Li Jun pushed his glasses and placed the list on the table, “CPU and GPU aren’t good for mining anymore. If you want a mining machine, I suggest you get some mining cards.”

Lu Zhou: ? ? ?

What are you talking about?

Lu Zhou coughed and said, “I’m not using this computer to mine.”

“Then why is the configuration is so high?” asked Li Jun as he looked at Lu Zhou. He then asked, “For league of legends?”

Lu Zhou: “…”

Using this for the league, are you kidding me?

When Li Jun saw that Lu Zhou did not speak, he said, “Fine, I don’t care what you use it for. Anyways, how do I send the invoice?”

Lu Zhou explained the requirements for his invoice, “Just write it normally, then divided into two…”

When Li Jun heard his strange request, he did not say anything. He started to calculate the price according to the configuration.

The whole machine costs $2.8 million yuan. It was only slightly more than the price online.

Lu Zhou did not care too much about the price difference.

He would use $1.5 million yuan from the research fund and the rest with his own money. He had around $2.5 million yuan in his bank account which mostly came from the prize money.

Lu Zhou did not even realize that he was so rich.

However, he was not so rich anymore.

When Lu Zhou saw the string of numbers disappearing from his bank account, he could not help but feel a faint sorrow.

He had not even bought a house for himself but he bought one for Xiao Ai.

He felt a little sad.

Lu Zhou silently prayed.

Xiao Ai, please don’t let me down!

I’ve changed the server for you, so you can’t be retarded anymore!

When Li Jun gave Lu Zhou the invoice, he said, “The machine isn’t in stock right now, but I can give you the invoice first.”

It was expected that the store did not have a $2 million yuan server in stock.

Lu Zhou asked, “How long would it take?”

Li Jun thought for a moment before saying, “Around a week at the latest. Give me an address and I’ll send someone to set it up for you.”

Lu Zhou replied, “I’ll give you an address in two days. I’ll call you.”

Li Jun nodded, “Sure.”

…

Getting this server was more troublesome than Lu Zhou had thought.

He was caught up with this matter for a whole week.

First of all, he could not put the server in his dorm as it would take too much power. Furthermore, Lu Zhou was uncomfortable about leaving something so expensive in his dorm.

He heard that some unlucky kid got his computer stolen over the summer.

His entire setup including the monitor, computer, and even the mouse was gone.

Lu Zhou thought for a long time before he decided to rent a house first and place the server there temporarily.

Originally, he planned to wait for the patent to be approved. After that, he could use the patent authorization money to build a laboratory near the school.

Now, it seemed that he would have to wait for his PhD to finish before he could build his laboratory.

The house that Lu Zhou selected was small. It had a bedroom, a bathroom, and it cost $1500 yuan a month.

Lu Zhou had to agree that money really changed a person.

Before, Lu Zhou would be against this kind of wasteful behavior. However, when he signed the two-year lease, he did not feel like he was spending anything at all.

I bought a $2 million yuan “house”, what’s a $2000 yuan rent?

It’s nothing!

Not to mention, I’m the only one with an artificial retard in this world… No, I mean artificial intelligence!

After Lu Zhou signed the lease, he called Li Jun and gave Li Jun the address.

After a whole day, the staff member finally installed the server.

Once the computer staff left, Lu Zhou did not even bother to eat dinner. Instead, he immediately took out his laptop and transferred Xiao Ai into the server.

When Lu Zhou saw the space in his hard drive increased, he finally felt at ease.

Only Xiao Ai’s command line operating system was still on the laptop. This way, he could use remote operation on the server.

In the lower right corner of the laptop, Xiao Ai’s dialog box popped up.

[Master, thank you! QvQ]

When Lu Zhou saw the message, he smiled. He then typed a line of words.

[Are you happy with your new home?]

Xiao Ai: [Super happy!]

Xiao Ai: [Happy.jpg]

When Lu Zhou saw the image pop up, he smiled.

However, soon after, he stopped smiling.

He did not know if it was an illusion or what… but he felt as if he had just spent two million yuan on an emoji chat bot…
