The computer mall in the county town, although it is also called a computer mall, is far smaller in scale than the one in Dongning City.
Fortunately, Han Ming and his group weren't doing large-scale wholesale, so they figured they had enough stuff here.
On the way, Liang Qi learned that Han Ming and his group had come to buy used electronic products, and she was quite curious about what they were buying.
However, Liang Qi had developed a habit since childhood that she did not like to ask Han Ming and Zhuang Yan questions.
Because if I chased after them with questions when we were kids, I was sure to get teased by those mischievous little devils.
Therefore, Liang Qi has maintained this habit to this day.
Han Ming first found a laptop repair shop for Liang Qi, and the young man in the shop quickly took it apart.
They said it was water damage that burned out a capacitor, and they're asking for 200 yuan to repair it, including labor costs.
Han Ming used X-ray glasses to check it and it showed that the capacitor was burnt out.
It costs 200 yuan to repair it. Wow, a capacitor only costs a few yuan, but the labor cost is really expensive.
So I tried to bargain with the young man in the shop, but he wouldn't budge.
He said that if it were sent to a specialized repair shop, the motherboard would need to be replaced, which would cost one or two thousand yuan. The price he quoted was very fair.
Han Ming wasn't happy to argue with him; he was in a hurry to collect old goods and pick up his girlfriend in the afternoon, so his schedule was quite tight.
They told the shop's repairman to hurry up and fix it, while the three of them waited on the side.
The young man who repaired it was quite efficient, or perhaps the problem with the machine wasn't serious to begin with, because the computer was fixed in about twenty minutes.
After starting it up, there seemed to be no problem.
Han Ming took out two red bills from his pocket and handed them over, but Liang Qi objected, insisting that she pay for them herself.
He took out some money from his jeans pocket, counted out two bills, and handed them over.
Seeing that both men were vying to pay, the young repairman, confused, smiled and said:
"You two seem quite affectionate, even arguing over who pays for this."
"Hey beautiful, just let your boyfriend pay for it. If this computer breaks down again, just have him buy you a new one."
The speaker meant no harm, but the listener blushed. Liang Qi's face turned bright red as soon as she heard the words, and she looked at Han Ming awkwardly.
Han Ming didn't have time to haggle with the young man. He shoved the money into the young man's hand, then turned around, grabbed Liang Qi's hand, and stuffed the money back into Liang Qi's hand.
When Liang Qi's hand was grabbed, her heart skipped a beat, and she swallowed the words she was about to say.
Blushing, she stopped insisting and put her laptop in her bag with her head down.
Two handsome young men and a pretty young woman wandering around the computer mall attracted a lot of attention.
If there are female sales clerks in the shop, call out:
"Handsome guy, handsome guy, what do you want to buy? Come and take a look at our shop."
If the shop has male sales staff, then:
"Beautiful lady, beautiful lady, come and have a look at us! Whatever you want to buy, we have it all."
This feeling was quite strange. Han Ming suddenly thought of a rich young master walking under a brothel in an ancient costume drama.
From each of the windows upstairs, a handkerchief was waved out, calling out:
"Young master, look here! Our young lady is the most beautiful, gentle, considerate, and skilled at undressing people."
There was no shortage of used computer parts, and Han Ming quickly found a shop that specialized in recycling old goods.
After some haggling, we finally bought 50 sets of used computer parts for 60 yuan each.
Because Han Ming was building a high-performance blade server, the materials used were similar to those used in ordinary desktop computers.
Therefore, these 50 sets of electronic waste should be able to build at least 40 blade servers.
As for the server casing, Han Ming considered that there were still quite a few old lathes in the workshop, so he could just use them to make the server casing.
Fifty sets of old motherboards, hard drives, memory, etc., which isn't a lot, but it's not a small amount either.
Three people could barely manage to take it.
But it's not very convenient to take the bus with all this stuff, and Han Ming thought about how he only spent 3,000 yuan on shopping today.
Since I had to pick up my girlfriend in the afternoon, I decided to splurge and take a long-distance taxi back to Xiaqiao Town.
But it's only noon, so we need to figure out what to eat first.
Seeing Zhuang Yan carrying so many bags, and Liang Qi, whose slender hands were also carrying quite a few.
Han Ming should at least treat these two free laborers to a meal.
The group decided to go downstairs and grab some fast food to fill their stomachs. In this sweltering weather, with so few people around, getting a hamburger, fried chicken, and ice cream from a fast food restaurant seemed like a good idea.
Han Ming remembered that there was a shopping mall not far from the computer market, with shops on the ground floor, so the three of them walked towards it under the sun.
The shopping malls in the county are not as large or impressive as those in the provincial capital, but thanks to the increase in people's income, the gap between urban and rural areas is not so big.
In particular, Nanzhu County, where the private economy is relatively developed, has quite a few private business owners who are quite wealthy and whose spending power should not be underestimated.
So this shopping mall is quite well built, with a cinema, KTV entertainment center, food street and other amenities.
They weren't far from the KFC restaurant, but Han Ming noticed a group of people gathered not far from the restaurant entrance, and he didn't know what they were doing.
Han Ming was exasperated. Why did he always run into onlookers who didn't know the truth every time he went out?
Last time I saw Liang Jianxing in front of the town's police station, I ended up helping him fight.
Later, in the provincial capital, Liu Debao was spotted again at the entrance of a hotel, and they ended up fighting again.
This is the third time already. Is another fight about to break out? Han Ming wondered to himself, then activated his glasses to zoom in and take a closer look.
Oh no, here we go again. After realizing the situation, Han Ming walked towards the group of people.
As they walked, he told Liang Qi to go to the shop and order food first, while he and Zhuang Yan went to check on the situation.
Zhuang Yan was puzzled. What was so interesting about such a commotion on such a hot day? Judging from the crowd, it was just a bunch of elderly men and women. It probably wasn't anything important.
However, Zhuang Yan was quite excited when he heard what Han Ming said next.
So that's why Liang Qi went to the store first.
That's right, Han Ming saw those three thugs again, one fat and two skinny, which is why Han Ming rushed straight towards them as soon as he spotted them.
These thugs were already on Han Ming's radar; wherever they appeared, nothing good ever came of it.
At this moment, all you could see in the crowd was an elderly woman in her sixties desperately grabbing one of the skinny monkeys and refusing to let go.
A chubby little boy next to her was grabbing the old woman's clothes and crying his eyes out.
What heinous things have these bastards done this time? They dare to commit violence in broad daylight!
No wonder people say that society is going downhill and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be.
Han Ming walked closer and saw that most of the people gathered around were elderly men and women; there wasn't a single young man in sight.
The loving young couples walking by didn't even glance in their direction; they were completely indifferent, as if it were none of their business. What a shame.
