Xiao Fang saw that student Meng greeted politely, responding to Yun Sheng's words: "Teacher Yun, no problem, no problem."
Yun Sheng thought for a moment and sent Meng Huai a link, telling him: "Pay attention to this forum. It's our lab's exclusive forum. You can exchange points for things. Study it yourself, and if you don't understand, ask your senior, Ju."
Meng Huai nodded: "Okay, thank you, Teacher Yun."
Meng Huai returned to his dormitory, thinking about how to use this plot of land. First, he would replace all the soil, and he had promised Teacher Yun and the others to bring some spirit soil. Meng Huai remembered the forum Teacher Yun mentioned and opened the link to take a look.
The very first post on the homepage was about the points exchange system. Meng Huai looked at it and was shocked. The general idea was that this forum was exclusive to the Ancient Botany department of the research institute, and only those who met certain requirements could join.
It was mostly composed of mentors or students like Ju Qiwen who were highly valued by their mentors. However, Meng Huai's plant cultivation skills were indeed sufficient to join this forum.
After Meng Huai logged in with her ID, she saw that she had one thousand points. Clicking on it, she saw that Yun Sheng had transferred the points to her as a reward for outstanding contributions.
Meng Huai murmured, looking at the reason: "Could it be the flowers I sent?"
Meng Huai shrugged, indicating that she didn't care, and continued to see what the points could be used for.
"So points can be exchanged for seeds, and the things grown can also be exchanged for points. Points can also be converted into star coins at a one-to-one ratio. It looks good."
Meng Huai clicked on it again and exchanged some plants and seeds with one thousand points, planning to ask how to claim the exchanged items when she went to deliver the soil to Yun Sheng later.
However, about ten minutes later, there was a knock on Meng Huai's dormitory door.
"Who is it?"
Meng Huai opened the door suspiciously. A robot holding a tray stood at her dormitory entrance. The robot first verified Meng Huai's identity: "Scan complete. Meng Huai, first-year student, class one, Logistics Department. These are the items you exchanged. Please sign for them."
Meng Huai looked at the items on the tray; they were indeed what she had just exchanged with points. Meng Huai took the items down and contacted Ju Qiwen: "Senior? What's going on with this robot?"
The communication was quickly connected, and Meng Huai showed Ju Qiwen the robot at the door. Upon seeing the robot, Ju Qiwen asked: "Did you exchange something on the forum? This is a delivery robot. Everyone is usually very busy with experiments and studies, so they use this robot for exchanges to save time and effort. By the way, didn't you say you were going to bring some nutrient soil? You can have this robot deliver it too."
Meng Huai nodded, thinking: So it's a puppet that can be controlled without soul power, very convenient.
"Okay, senior. I'll have the robot deliver it later."
Ju Qiwen taught Meng Huai how to use it: "Yes, you just need to input commands to the robot."
Ju Qiwen remembered that the mentor had something to tell her to pass on to Meng Huai: "By the way, junior. You can open a shop on the forum. You can put any plants or flowers you don't need or want to sell in the shop."
While Meng Huai was still pondering, Ju Qiwen added: "Also, this nutrient soil, if you want to sell it, you can also list it in the shop."
Meng Huai nodded and asked thoughtfully: "This soil? Will anyone buy it?"
Ju Qiwen looked at Meng Huai, who clearly didn't know how attractive her product was. If the nutrient soil was as Meng Huai described, it would be even better than the lab's soil. Plants could grow rapidly without the need for plant nutrients, making it highly sought after.
Ju Qiwen could only say: "Anyway, I want to buy it. Just list it. When you apply for the shop, tell mentor Yun, and he can help you open the shop permissions."
Meng Huai agreed, but what she didn't know was that shops on this forum could only be opened by teachers, so it required special permission from Yun Sheng.
Meng Huai hung up the communication and placed the large bucket of soil on the robot's tray. Following Ju Qiwen's instructions, she input commands to the robot, and the robot left.
"This puppet, not bad, quite useful! It can carry such heavy things without collapsing."
Meng Huai still habitually called the robot a puppet, as in her eyes, it was no different from a puppet.
Meng Huai looked at the delivered seeds and plants and stored them in her space. As for the plot of land, she would go there when she had time. For now, absorbing knowledge was more important.
Meng Huai went to audit classes when she had nothing to do. The students in the second class of the Mech Engineering department were very enthusiastic towards her. One day, after finishing a lecture, the mentor asked: "Do you have any questions?"
Meng Huai raised her hand. Seeing someone asking a question, the mentor gestured for her to speak.
Meng Huai then expressed her thoughts: "Teacher, I have an idea, I don't know if it's feasible. It's about this wiring... if installed like this..."
As Meng Huai spoke about the wiring, she then brought up another point: "Also, this weapon, I think..."
Meng Huai explained both of her design ideas one by one. The classroom was unusually quiet. Only Meng Huai's voice could be heard. The teaching mentor followed Meng Huai's explanation step by step, thinking.
After Meng Huai finished, the mentor remained silent because his thoughts had not yet returned, and he was still calculating the final step of the design. Finally, after the teacher finished his calculation, he exclaimed excitedly: "I actually didn't think of that! Excellent! This student's idea is very good. Doing it this way would indeed increase the mecha's efficiency."
The teacher's affirmation caused the other students in the class to look at Meng Huai, their gazes conveying: How are you so amazing!
The teacher had only recently noticed this student (Meng Huai had indeed been absent a few days ago). He asked: "Student, what's your name?"
As he spoke, the teacher opened the student list on the podium, intending to give this student extra credit.
Meng Huai answered truthfully: "Teacher, my name is Meng Huai."
As Meng Huai said her name, students who knew she wasn't in this class became nervous, fearing that the teacher would be angry. However, even if the teacher were angry, they wouldn't blame Meng Huai.
The teacher looked at the class list and said: "Huh? There's no one named Meng Huai on the list. Was it missed?"
Meng Huai wasn't nervous and directly told the teacher: "Teacher, I'm from the Logistics Department."
The teacher looked at Meng Huai: "From the Logistics Department? It seems you really like our Mech Engineering Department!"
Meng Huai didn't beat around the bush and said directly: "Yes, I want to come to our Mech Engineering Department."
What she didn't say was: But the conditions don't allow it.
The teacher assumed it was because all the spots were filled, and she could only go to the Logistics Department. He thought Meng Huai was very talented and encouraged her: "You can try to transfer departments next year. You're quite talented."
