No. 115 is kind of weird - 116 has a reputation(2/3)
"You know nothing!" Shana snorted coldly, "Don't you feel comfortable being here in Taidu?"
This was not her guess, but the maintenance man was used to making a lot of money, and the disgust he felt every time he came was genuine.
After all, Houjing cannot keep up with the prosperity of Taidu. In the eyes of people from Central City, Taidu is just a remote place.
Therefore, the people above do not want to make more money, but it is difficult to find hidden dangers.
After thinking about this, she laughed and said, "Find a hidden danger and check it. The bill will be paid soon."
Thomas opened his mouth in astonishment, "Is this going to pay the bill?"
At the same time, Qu Jianlei sat on the back seat of the motorcycle and asked loudly, "They didn't pay in advance?"
He himself disliked credit, and he was certain that Bentley preferred to charge in advance.
"Just make do with the first order," Bentley replied in a sullen voice.
"Opening up a situation requires a process, and this order is not small... Don't worry, they don't dare to owe money!"
It's not "I won't owe", but "I dare not owe". Qu Jianlei instantly thought of his previous guess.
He couldn't help but gossip, "Old Ben, you and that Shana..."
"We have nothing to do with each other," Bentley replied calmly.
Then he couldn't help but complain, "I didn't expect that a person like you would chew your tongue."
Qu Jianlei didn't mind what he said, because he felt that his curiosity was a bit too much.
But if he can learn the tricks, wouldn't it be convenient for him to take on jobs by himself in the future?
"Then how do you judge if the other party doesn't dare to owe money?"

Chapter 116 Fame (fourth update)
Bentley was able to get this job for a very simple reason: someone introduced him!
It's not a middleman or something, that kind of person is not qualified to matchmaking for the Gold Industry Center.
The introducer was very respectable. When I was in trouble, Bentley stopped by and helped me.
As a result, the person said that I must repay my kindness when I become rich, and you can just leave me a secret message.
Bentley came to save people, but he just did it casually, without pointing out that the other party could repay his kindness.
But since he was in a good mood, he casually agreed on the code word.
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"I originally thought that I would find a few strong people to talk to, but I didn't expect this guy to admit it. It would be lucky."
Qu Jianlei couldn't help but ask again, "Aren't you afraid that your identity will be exposed?"
"When I rescued him, I was wearing a mask," Bentley replied casually, "and we agreed that we would only recognize code words."
Qu Jianlei nodded when he heard this, "It's really rare."
"It's so rare," Bentley said cursingly, "When I saved people back then, I was trying to transform the strength of the soldiers."
That is, after becoming developed, I don't want to arouse the anger of a reformed warrior.
The first order in the gold industry went smoothly, and two days later, Bentley got another order.
This order is only for inspection and not maintenance, and the cost is not too high. It only costs 300 silver dollars. Fortunately, there is no need to visit the house.
The third order came a little late, but it was a big order - a comprehensive test of the performance of the four mechas.
What is more depressing is that this time I have to go to the door for testing.
However, Bentley explained, "No one will be watching the testing process. The key is to send four mechas. Do you want to be famous?"
After all, the suburbs are not prosperous enough. It doesn't matter if one or two mechas appear occasionally, but four of them are really eye-catching.
It's not difficult to transport it secretly, but... what if someone sees it?
This test took Qu Jianlei two days.
In fact, with his speed, he can complete the test in one day, but in that case, it would be a bit shocking.
Secondly, the other party gave too much. The testing fee of 400 silver dollars per mecha... Is it appropriate to earn 1,600 yuan a day?
For the sake of money, Qu Jianlei had no choice but to run twice.
I just finished this job, and two days later there was another job...it was a monitoring system!
After Qu Jianlei heard about it, he asked in shock, "Is there still surveillance here?"
"This is Houjing!" Bentley rolled his eyelids, "Six major intersections entering the city, each with a surveillance camera, is that much?"
This is really not much, Qu Jianlei is sure of this, "But all six monitors are broken?"
"Some people don't like it," Bentley spread his hands. "You also know that there are many lawless people."
Wastelanders don't like to be restrained, and this is normal.
In fact, Qu Jianlei didn't want to repair it, and he himself was shady. "How long has it been broken?"
"I don't know," Bentley smiled awkwardly, "Anyway, we just want to make money."
Qu Jianlei shook his head politely, "Sorry, I'm not very interested in this."
"Two hundred carriage fare," Bentley spread his hands. He knew what the opponent's weakness was. "It's just a trip."
Qu Jianlei remained silent for a while before speaking.
"Well, I don't care about the fare. The main thing is that if we don't go, it will easily make people suspect that we have unknown origins."
Bentley nodded expressionlessly, "Well, this concern is very reasonable."
Qu Jianlei glanced at the old man suspiciously and thought to himself, "Why do I listen to this? It sounds like an irony?"
The next day, they followed a middle floor of the settlement and went to see six cameras.
All six cameras were broken, and Qu Jianlei couldn't help complaining, "Can't you just change the camera?"
"The number of cameras is limited," the middle-level manager named Franco replied helplessly, "I can't even buy one if I want to."
"The quantity is limited?" Qu Jianlei was stunned. Even in Blue Star, this thing is only cheap.
But the next moment, he told himself that this was a wasteland and whatever happened was normal.
"The main reason is that the interception in Taidu is too strong," Franco complained helplessly, looking full of complaints.
"There aren't many cameras provided by the 'top', but people break the cameras in Taidu all day long..."
"If they don't have enough of their own, they appropriate our Sijing's... How can this be justified?"
"The camera was turned off all day long?" Qu Jianlei was shocked again, "Then go check the video and see who did it."
Franco became more and more frowning, "Video systems are more expensive and useless... Some marksmen are particularly powerful."
Then he thought of something and looked at Qu Jianlei in astonishment, "Have you ever seen a video system? Who is so rich?"
Qu Jianlei touched his forehead helplessly and simply did not answer.
Seeing this, Bentley immediately changed the subject, "Did you build this monitoring system at your own expense?"
"Taidu will not be kind enough to help with construction," Franco continued to complain.
"If you have everything, if the other four capitals want to do something, they will stop it... If you don't focus on building yourself up, you will only stumble!"
"It turns out it's at my own expense," Qu Jianlei didn't know what to say.
After listening for a while, he already understood that the cultural environment and productivity level of Tianzi District were not suitable for installing surveillance cameras.
All we can say is that face projects kill people!
Bentley didn't want to continue nagging like this, "Do you have a backup camera now? If not, there is no way to detect it."???.
"There are only three left. I took one out," Franco replied dully, "Don't break it."
Qu Jianlei took the camera and installed it within a few minutes. "Ask the monitoring room if you can see it."
Not long after, a message came from the monitoring room, "I can't see that the line you are installing at the northwest intersection is broken."
Qu Jianlei looked at Franco speechlessly, "The line is broken, how do you want me to test it?"
Franco replied confidently, "Then please check and find out where the line is broken. We can fix it."
It's impossible to change the line, the distance is too far, and there are cables in the middle that transmit optical signals, which is even more expensive.
"Let me test where the wire is broken?" Qu Jianlei was really angry, "Why don't you test it?"
"We've already tested it," an exasperated shout came from Franco's station, "We can't find anything!"
Is the cable internally broken? Qu Jianlei became more and more angry, "I don't know if this kind of fault requires a special line tester?"
"Do you also know about the special line detector?" Franco looked at him with an increasingly weird look.
Then he spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry, that kind of equipment is not only expensive, but it's not even available...it's difficult for them to rent it once."
It’s not a question of whether it’s expensive or not. What he emphasized first is that it’s difficult.
To be continued...
