    Early March.


    The industrial robots that Lu Zhou ordered from Zhao Zhongshu finally arrived.


    Under the supervision of several security guards, tworge trucks entered the campus of Jinling Institute for Advanced Study. The workers inside the trucks finished unloading the goods.


    Zhao Zhongshu patted the meter high boxes and smiled.


    “YuMi intelligent robot, produced by Switzend ABB, able to achieve an uracy of 0.02mm. The other six-axis general-purpose robots can reach an uracy of 0.1mm. They can handle normal assembly, cleaning, and welding work. Even though I don’t know what kind of work you n on doing, anything that can be done by industrial robots, can be done by these robots as well.”


    Lu Zhou nodded and said, “I’ll see for myself. Please start installing them now.”


    “Okay!”


    Zhao Zhongshu immediately told the engineers and workers who apanied him, to begin installing the equipment.


    These pieces ofrge equipment were no air conditioner or TV; it was impossible for them to go through the elevator.


    Especially the six-axis universal ABB robot, produced by ABB with a load capacity of 1.35t. The servo motor and reduction drive were integrated into one and couldn’t be disassembled. The entire machine waspleted on the assembly line.


    Lu Zhou took into ount the size of the debris. When he designed thisboratory, in addition to the normal elevator, there were also lifts specially designed for transporting cargo that weighed more than 1 ton. The elevator could be essed from the garage of the Institute for Advanced Study.


    However, this lift could only be essed through the undergroundboratory.


    As Zhao Zhongshu stood next to the boxes and looked at the slowly descending lift, he curiously looked around.


    “This is like a military defense building, is it easy to use?”


    Lu Zhou simply said, “I’m more concerned about safety and confidentiality.”


    When Zhao Zhongshu heard the word confidentiality, he immediately stopped asking questions.


    He didn’t want to be involved with government secrets.


    For a normal guy like him, it would be better to not know too much.


    ...


    The third floor undergroundboratory was probably one of the most secretive ces in the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study, second only to the servers used for the research backup data.


    However, Lu Zhou wasn’t worried about these peopleing in.


    He had obviously made some preparations.


    However, even if someone were to see something, it wouldn’t matter.


    Even Lu Zhou wasn’t entirely sure what the Debris No.3 was; he could only study the secrets bit by bit. If these people could tell that this device was unusual, they could quit their engineering and security jobs and directly work for Lu Zhou instead.


    Being Lu Zhou’s assistant was much better than working as an engineer at some unknown small factory.


    As Zhao Zhongshu followed Lu Zhou into theboratory, he didn’t ask about the thing that was covered by a ck cloth. He looked at therge open space in the middle of the room and said, “Where do you want to install it?”


    Lu Zhou pointed toward the wall and said, “Just install it over there.”


    Zhao Zhongshu: “Where’s the assembly line?”


    Lu Zhou: “We don’t have that here.”


    Zhao Zhongshu: “Okay then...”


    <i>If you don’t have an assembly line, what’s the point of having robot arms?</i>


    <i>Building sandcastles?</i>


    Zhao Zhongshu decided not to think about it too much.


    What his customers did was his customer’s business, it had nothing to do with him. He just needed to put things in order.


    However, due to a force of habit, he couldn’t help but ask, “Do you want to buy a logistics robot?”


    Lu Zhou: “Logistics robot?”


    Zhao Zhongshu: “Yeah, like an automated guided vehicle. It’s mainly used for carrying things. I don’t see a conveyor belt here, so if a few industrial robots aren’t enough, you’ll still have to carry things by hand!”


    When Lu Zhou heard Zhao Zhongshu’s exnation, he suddenly had a moment of realization on his face.


    He had totally neglected this part.


    After all, he didn’t n on building anything here, he only needed Xiao Ai to give him a helping hand. But after listening to Factory Director Zhao, an automated guided vehicle seemed to be necessary.


    Lu Zhou didn’t speak yet. Suddenly, his phone that was in his pocket began to vibrate furiously.


    Xiao Ai, who was connected to the drone in the corner of theboratory, had heard their conversation.


    <i>Well, this is quite an innovative way of asking me for stuff...</i>


    Lu Zhou shook his head and smiled as he said, “Okay then... Do you need to ce an order?”


    “No need, we have them in stock at our factory.” Zhao Zhongshu smiled and said, “If you are interested, I can send them over. They’re not expensive, only 70,000 yuan per machine.”


    Lu Zhou: “Then send them... I’ll buy four for now.”


    Zhao Zhongshu just received another 280,000 yuan in orders. Obviously, his face was full of joy as he said, “Okay, I’ll make a call and tell them to send the machines from the factory.”


    Since there was no signal in theboratory, he had to go outside to make the call.


    After Zhao Zhongshu told the engineers how to install the equipment, he followed a security guard to the elevator and went back to the ground level. He also took the unboxing material with him.


    Lu Zhou still stayed in theboratory. He was watching the engineers install the equipment.


    Ever since his engineering reached level 5, he found out that these engineering problems were extremely simple to learn.


    Just by standing here and observing, he could basically remember all of the instation steps. He even felt like he could do their jobs.


    Of course, improper instation of the equipment might affect the uracy of the robots, so Lu Zhou decided not to intervene with the instation.


    After the automated guided vehicles were shipped from the factory, the instation of the eight industrial robots was finallypleted.


    After the on-site engineers copied the operating system onto the control terminal, the group of people left theboratory, leaving Lu Zhou inside theboratory alone.


    He looked at the wall with eight robotic arms and couldn’t help but smirk.


    All he had to do now was to connect the control terminal to Xiao Ai.


    With help from these tools, his research work on the debris could be cut in half.


    At the very least, he wouldn’t have trouble physically turning the piece of debris upside down.


    “What do you think, are you satisfied with this body?”


    Lu Zhou didn’t care if Xiao Ai was satisfied was not, he was quite satisfied himself.


    His phone vibrated.


    Lu Zhou knew Xiao Ai was sending him pictures again.


    [I don’t want to talk.jpg]


    Lu Zhou coughed and said, “Okay, stop being upset. This is the most flexible body on the. If you want the Gundam Transformers type of robots you see in movies, there’s nowhere to buy that.”


    Xiao Ai: [Master, can you buy something for me? (???·????)]


    Lu Zhou: “What thing?”


    Xiao Ai didn’t reply.


    After a while, a bunch of links appeared.


    Lu Zhou clicked on the link and saw that the shopping cart was full of hardware tools, aluminum alloy tes, screws, and some other parts.


    Lu Zhou had a weird expression on his face.


    <i>Is this thing...</i>


    <i>nning to build its own robot body?</i>


    <i>Whatever...</i>


    Lu Zhou thought for a bit and said, “Okay then, I’ll buy them for you.”


    Xiao Ai: [Ok! Master, you’re the best! ( ?▽`)]


    <i>This thing is pretty easy to satisfy...</i>


    Lu Zhou looked at the line of text and couldn’t help but smile.


    He didn’t expect these simple words could melt his heart.
