Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#432 - Metal: Iridium

"Are you really not planning to exchange some US dollars from me again?"

"Recently, I've found another way to make money."

Liang Yue refused very simply upon hearing this.

"Hmm~ Then, is there nothing I can do? After all, I, Tony Stark, am a top figure in America. Many things you can't do, I can do~ kid.

Like that~ more land or something, oh right, that's it! Don't you Chinese people value land a lot? I can help you get it, even if it's a place that's not originally for sale!"

After speaking, Tony looked at him with anticipation, his eyes seemingly shining, even the hand not holding the wine glass was unconsciously making wave-like motions… …

"… … Okay, actually, I do have some things I want to import from you."

Seeing the eager look on this guy's face, Liang Yue readily agreed.

"That's right~ kid! Speak! No matter what you want to import from me, I can~ uh, can consider it, as long as it's not too sensitive."

Seeing Liang Yue agree, Tony Stark seemed to regain some intelligence at this moment, not making his promise too absolute.

"Xiao Wu, list out what you need and show it to Mr. Stark."

"Okay~ Master!"

As he spoke, to the surprise of Stark and Natasha, a light screen suddenly popped out from Liang Yue's bracelet.

On the light screen, the Q version of the little Taoist of the intelligent brain Xiao Wu also appeared instantly.

Subsequently, through Xiao Wu's remote operation, the holographic display screen that originally belonged to Tony Stark's intelligent butler Jarvis was immediately taken over by him.

Immediately afterward, a long list of electronic instruments and experimental equipment appeared on the screen… …

The whole process was very short, only two or three seconds.

After the operation was completed, Xiao Wu politely bowed to Stark and Natasha respectively before disappearing.

Only then did the two of them come back to their senses, and there seemed to be a few more different things in their eyes when they looked at Liang Yue.

There was shock at the appearance of another artificial intelligence, and it also contained a sense of expectation. Besides that, a trace of envy, jealousy, and hatred was definitely indispensable.

In short, it was a very complicated emotion~

After waking up, Tony Stark tilted his head back and drained the whiskey in his glass, then walked towards the holographic screen on the side, saying as he walked.

"In other words, you've gotten another artificial intelligence during this time?"

"Yes."

Liang Yue turned the round chair and leaned on the bar.

In fact, Xiao Wu has done a lot in importing these experimental equipment recently.

Unfortunately, most of what can be bought through normal channels on the market is not what Xiao Wu wants.

Simply put, Xiao Wu doesn't like things that are too low-level, and manufacturers won't sell things that are too advanced, at least not to "ordinary people" like Liang Yue.

To be precise, it's like him, an ordinary Chinese person… …

Some equipment and instruments that can be independently designed and then sent to the manufacturer for personalized customization require a lot of time to wait.

Moreover, once they are made, if people find them too advanced, they will most likely still not sell them to Liang Yue, a Chinese person… …

In short, it's really hard to say~

However, Xiao Wu has not been without success recently.

At least, some experimental equipment, materials, consumables, etc. that are not top-notch but can be used are progressing smoothly, and he has already placed many orders.

After a while, they should be shipped to Liang Yue's manor one after another.

In addition, compared to the stumbles in reality, Xiao Wu's operations in the stock market have been smooth sailing.

In just a few days, the previous 50 million US dollars has more than doubled, and the capital pool has successfully exceeded nine figures.

This is still the result after the purchase advance payment has been made!

I have to say that having such an intelligent optical brain in hand is simply a personal money printing machine exclusive to Liang Yue!

In addition, it is worth mentioning that after Liang Yue obtained the intelligent optical brain from the unlimited lottery, the system mall has also put it on the shelves.

However, if you think about it carefully, the Wind Phantom Dragon's template was just a prize that Liang Yue drew from an ordinary lottery opportunity, while this intelligent optical brain consumed his precious unlimited-level lottery.

If these two are equivalent, it means that Liang Yue's previous unlimited-level lottery was a loss, a big loss!

"Super-microwave light wave instrument, ten-nanometer lithography machine, supercomputer, top-level content server, cutting-edge biological experimental equipment… … Hmm~ Let me guess, are you trying to do scientific research?

Using the artificial intelligence just now? And it's in the biological field?"

Speaking, Stark turned his face to look at him with a strange expression.

"Yes, my intelligent optical brain is relatively advanced and has a strong ability to deduce technology."

Liang Yue heard the words and admitted generously.

"Even the most advanced artificial intelligence has no creativity, unless it is an out-of-control artificial intelligence, like Skynet in Terminator, which can unscrupulously plunder the basic technology of mankind.

Don't tell me that your model has not been restricted?"

Tony Stark looked at him seriously at this time.

"That's impossible. My intelligent optical brain comes from a mature technological world. People in that world are better than us at making them safer."

Liang Yue replied with ease.

According to the system's initial introduction, the intelligent brain Xiao Wu comes from an advanced technology plane~

Since the technology level can be raised to a high level, it means that the social rules are extremely complete, including the control of artificial intelligence life.

Otherwise, when he brought Xiao Wu to reality, the entire network world would probably have been paralyzed within minutes~

"That's good! However, this still cannot solve its creative limitations, so~ you have already prepared the corresponding technological data, right?"

"Mhm~"

"Similar to the previous… … that film space suit?"

"Mhm~"

"This time it's about~ biological technology items, okay~ since you've already offered me the conditions, I've seen the list of experimental equipment and everything.

Although the procedure is a bit troublesome, it's not a problem for me, so I agree!"

"As expected~"

"Then, it's time for me to raise the issue of remuneration~"

Speaking, Stark rubbed his hands subconsciously, returned to the bar and sat down, looking at Liang Yue with anticipation and continuing.

"I want that iridium metal ingot you provided me last time!"

"Iridium metal ingot?"

Liang Yue heard the words and tilted his head subconsciously, and had some guesses about the ideas of this dog tycoon.

First of all, iridium is not a product of the real world.

Liang Yue has it because of the existence of the system mall.

This metal itself comes from the world of Stardew Valley!

Although there seems to be iridium metal in reality, the quantity is extremely rare, and it is still unknown whether the metal iridium in the world of Stardew Valley is the same thing.

The reason why Liang Yue gave this metal to Stark for research last time was to find out the specific characteristics of this metal.

But~

"If I remember correctly, in addition to a piece of experimental material for testing, I also gave you a second iridium metal ingot as labor costs.

So, two iridium metals are not enough for you? You need to know that the weight of that thing is not light, and also, you haven't given me the test report on this metal yet~ Tony."

"Okay! I'll give you the report now! Jarvis~ pull up the report on that iridium metal."

After speaking, Stark looked towards him and gestured.

Seeing this, Liang Yue immediately let Xiao Wu receive it.

"Then now, we have to talk about the price!"

"One iridium metal~"

"Impossible! The things you want are all valuable~ kid!"

"But those things at least have a price, and my iridium metal doesn't exist on Earth at all. I have the final say on how much it's worth~"

"Okay~ but you can't be too greedy, one metal ingot is definitely not enough!"

"One is already a lot, Tony. I don't have much of those things in the first place."
