The moment Gu Nanxun received the robot's salute, a connection was also established in his mind. He immediately understood how to control the robot, and that he only needed to give a command in his mind to destroy it. He would then have complete control over the robot.
"Name...Qingqing, would you like to choose a name?"
Gu Nanxun reached out and touched Lin Qing's hair, asking with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes... let me think... how about Gu Nan!"
Lin Qing lowered her head and thought for a while, then said excitedly.
"Gu Bei? Sure, but what's the meaning behind this?"
Gu Nanxun looked at Lin Qing's excited expression and then asked in confusion.
"There's no special meaning to it. You're the robot's owner, so of course it takes your surname. Didn't my uncle name his subordinates Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter, Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning? I was thinking, why not name them East, South, West, North? But Gu Dong, Gu Nan, Gu Xi, Gu Bei, I think Gu Bei sounds the best!"
"Then why not call him Gu Nan?"
Gu Nanxun reached out and pinched Lin Qing's cheek, asking with amusement.
"That won't do. Your name is Gu Nanxun, and his name is Gu Nan. Wouldn't that be the same as your name?"
Lin Qing firmly shook her head and refused, saying, "Are you kidding? How can I share a name with my husband? It would be so awkward at home!"
"Okay, then let's call him Gu Bei!"
Gu Nanxun reached out and ruffled Lin Qing's hair, smiling as he said, "My wife is so cute!" He had only been joking casually, but she took it so seriously. Then he turned to the robot and said, "From now on, your name will be Gu Bei!"
"Yes, Master!"
The robot bowed again and then said with a serious expression.
"From now on, you don't need to call us 'master' or 'master'. Just call us 'sir' and 'madam'!"
Gu Nanxun continued to correct the robot.
"Yes, sir."
Lin Qing said excitedly, "That's amazing! You look exactly like a real person! What can you do? Can you do housework? Like cleaning, cooking, and so on? Is that okay?"
The robot Gu Bei nodded and replied, "Of course, this is one of my basic functions. I will do my best to provide you with the best service."
Gu Nanxun added, "We still need you to protect our home. If there are any unusual situations, we hope you can handle them promptly."
Gu Bei nodded again, "Okay, but in order to better handle abnormal situations, I need to understand some of your basic information."
"Brother Nanxun, it seems we can't let him watch the house today. After all, he comes from interstellar space, so he should know about the lifestyle there. I guess he'll have to learn about our environment first!"
Lin Qing looked at the tall Gu Bei in front of her and said with a regretful expression.
Gu Nanxun nodded in agreement and said, "That's the only way for now. I'll find some books that are relevant to this era so he can learn about them. Let him study in the space for today! Once he's finished studying, I'll take him over when I have some free time."
"Are you planning to have him live outside pretending to be a human?!"
Seeing the two discussing, Zhao Jinxiang suddenly spoke up.
"Okay! I'll get him a household registration."
Upon hearing Zhao Jinxiang's question, Gu Nanxun nodded and then answered.
"Don't get involved in this matter, leave it to me! I'll take care of it for you!"
Gu Nanxun nodded upon hearing this. If his uncle could help him with it, that would be even better. Although he could do it himself, he would always have to rely on some favors. His uncle's network of connections over the years would make it much easier for him to handle this matter than he could.
On the other side of the screen, Bai Li, watching all this, couldn't help but marvel at the progress of technology. He smiled and said to Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun, "It seems your new helper will be very capable. When your business starts up in the future, you can also entrust some key tasks to robots."
"Yes, I understand, Uncle Bai Li!"
Upon hearing Bai Li's suggestion, Gu Nanxun nodded seriously in agreement, saying that this was also what he had been thinking before.
"Alright, Uncle, you and Uncle Bai Li chat for a while longer. I'm going to the study to find some documents."
Lin Qing said with a smile.
"Alright, you can go ahead!"
Zhao Jinxiang smiled and nodded, then said, and Bai Li across from him also smiled and nodded.
"Qingqing, let me go with you!"
Seeing Lin Qing heading towards the study, Gu Nanxun hurriedly stood up, wanting to follow her.
"Brother Nanxun, what will happen to Uncle and the others if you leave!"
Lin Qing pulled Gu Nanxun aside and said with a smile.
"It's alright, you guys go ahead, I'll sit at the dining table!"
Zhao Jinxiang glanced at the location of the dining table and the study, roughly estimated the distance, and then spoke.
"Is this enough? Will it work without Nanxun here?"
Lin Qing asked curiously.
"I forgot to tell you, the maximum projection distance can be set to 4 meters, and it can also block out sound, so as long as we're not more than 4 meters apart, it's fine!"
Gu Nanxun explained with a smile.
Lin Qing nodded upon hearing this, then took Gu Nanxun's hand and said as they walked towards the study, "Okay, let's go together."
Zhao Jinxiang hurriedly followed, then went to the dining room and sat in the chair closest to the study.
After Gu Nanxun entered the study, he projected the screen directly onto the wall connecting the study to the dining room.
...
Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing searched the study for a while and found some books describing the background of this era, as well as some ancient history, the change of dynasties, the development of the country, and so on!
Then, Lin Qing and Lin Qing walked out of the study and into the living room, where Lin Qing handed all the books to Gu Bei, who was waiting there.
"Gu Bei, these books are about our planet and our era. Take a look at them carefully, and let me know when you're done!"
Gu Nanxun explained to Gu Bei with a serious expression.
"Look carefully, I'll check it after you're done!"
After Gu Nanxun finished speaking, he continued to add to the story.
"Yes, sir!"
Gu Bei took the book, then bowed slightly and said respectfully.
"Uncle, are you done chatting? We're going back now."
Gu Nanxun walked up to Zhao Jinxiang and said.
Zhao Jinxiang glanced at Bai Li across from him with a reluctant expression, then nodded reluctantly.
"Uncle, why don't you come back with us? You can go into your spatial dimension after we get home!"
Seeing her uncle's reluctance, Lin Qing suddenly made a suggestion.
"Isn't this a bad idea? What if someone sees us?"
Zhao Jinxiang said hesitantly.
