In front of a transparent electronic screen, a pretty girl was calculating something with a serious look on her face.
Behind the electronic screen is a window, and outside the window is a gloomy slum.
Suddenly, the door opened and another girl's voice complained, "Sister, I'm so unlucky today. The mountain passes were only issued at number 4435. I waited in line all day for nothing..."
Every day, 50,000 passes leading from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain are issued, providing various grassroots services to the wealthy area.
For example, transporting garbage from wealthy areas, cleaning smelly sewers, and even moving and cleaning corpses are all jobs that need to be done by people from the slums.
There are strict arrangements in the wealthy areas every day. Although 50,000 places are allocated, the number of people released on that day will be determined based on actual needs.
The files of these people were sent to the wealthy area for review a week ago, and they were only allowed to enter the wealthy area after passing the review.
After finishing a day's work in the wealthy area, you must return to the foot of the mountain before twelve o'clock.
If you are lucky, you can work in the home of the rich person you serve for several days in a row. Not only can you get a handsome commission, but you can also taste the various delicacies left over by the rich.
Nearly five million people in the slums are eager to line up and go up the mountain every day to serve the less than half a million rich people on the mountain.
Qin Xue sat down at the head of the bed in the corner of the room, looking depressed and tired.
The room was small and dark, less than 30 square meters, and was crowded with various simple and old furniture.
The holographic computer on the broken desk is brand new and advanced, and is the only valuable thing in the room.
At this moment, Qin Shuang didn't hear her twin sister's complaints at all, but stared at the results on the screen with burning eyes.
Qin Xue glanced at the electronic screen and was about to say something when she was stunned.
A girl appeared on the screen, and she looked very familiar.
"Who is this?" She couldn't help but take a closer look.
Qin Shuang smiled with satisfaction and said, "This is a combination of the two of us. I will call her codename 001 for now."
"She is the first perfect robot I have ever designed."
Qin Xue lay back down on the narrow bed in a bad mood and complained, "Instead of staying here all day working on your robot, why don't you sign up and find a job in the mountains!"
"With your qualifications, you can definitely sign a long-term agreement with me and move into the wealthy area with me."
Qin Shuang passed the assessment of high-tech talents in the mountains with the highest score two years ago.
The wealthy areas also need high-tech talents, so every year the self-taught people at the foot of the mountain are assessed in various aspects to select suitable people.
Once selected, these candidates will become the new generation of temporary residents in the wealthy area. They can rent a small apartment of less than 30 square meters in the wealthy area and do not have to be forcibly driven down the mountain before midnight every day like other people.
After three years of assessment, this group of people must purchase a million-dollar house in a wealthy area in order to continue to stay on the mountain. After five years, the taxes they pay must exceed a certain amount before they can finally become permanent residents of the mountain.
At that time, they can use their permanent resident status to bring a relative up the mountain from the foot of the mountain.
As a figurehead in artificial intelligence, Qin Shuang has long been the object of competition among many scientific and technological institutions on the mountain.
But she wanted to have an independent research laboratory, and the products developed needed to be signed with her own name.
This condition made several technology companies scoff and reject her request.
Qin Shuang was not annoyed. She continued to stay in her small house to study her results, and then made a living by repairing electronic products in the slum area every now and then.
Although Qin Xue relies on her sister for a living, she is arrogant and wants to become a member of the upper class in the mountains.
After learning that Qin Shuang was rejected by several technology companies, she was so angry that she almost beat Qin Shuang up.
Qin Shuang slowly turned off the electronic screen, then took off his glasses and turned to look at his sister: "I understand your thoughts. Are you still planning to go find those cold-blooded people?"
Qin Xue heard the sarcasm in Qin Shuang's words and couldn't help but say, "Director Zhang of the orphanage said that when we were thrown into the orphanage, the cloaks we were wrapped in came from the mountains, and they were a very famous brand!"
"My intuition tells me that our parents are the nobles of the mountain."
Qin Shuang sneered: "Noble?"
"What kind of 'noble' is it who abandons his own child to an orphanage in the slums?"
Qin Xue frowned and said, "Don't say that. If they hadn't given us life, would you be here today?"
Qin Shuang looked at her with a look of sarcasm on his face: "What if our parents were just ordinary poor people living down the mountain? Why are you still obsessed with them?"
"Absolutely not!" Qin Xue said firmly, "Where would someone from the slums get such an exquisite cloak?"
"Couldn't it be that some rich man took pity on her and gave it to her?" Qin Shuang sneered.
My younger sister has been daydreaming since she was a child.
I always fantasize that I am the child of a rich man in the mountain, or even the child of the supreme leader who rules the entire mountain.
So since she was a child in the orphanage, she called herself "Princess" and was beaten severely by many children.
Qin Shuang was isolated by other children in the orphanage because of her inexplicable "superiority complex".
"No! My intuition tells me that our parents must be nobles!" Qin Xue insisted.
Qin Shuang ignored her and packed up to go out.
