Chapter 78 – Natural Programmer


Time, rapidly pa.s.sed by. In the blink of an eye, seven days had gone by already.


After a week of fermentation, Chen Yu had already gained over three million views on Bilibili for his livestream. However, his popularity on DouYu and Youtube was still growing at a languid pace.


The editors of the two broadcasting platforms thoroughly refused to provide him with any exposure at all. As a result, he could only rely on his viewers to gradually spread his name.


Moreover, on the internet, aside from Bilibili, DouYu, and Youtube, no news or information relating to Transdimensional Review could be found at all. It was evident that the government was doing its best to prevent more people from finding out about Transdimensional Review’s existence.


In regards to these problems, though, Chen Yu neither minded it nor had a good solution.


After all, these broadcasting platforms had the right to choose whether they promoted his channel or not. Unless these platforms did something that encroached on the Transdimensional Marketing Company’s interests, it would not interfere in this matter. As for websites outside of these three broadcasting platforms, they currently remained outside of the company’s range of protection still.


Hence, he could only rely on his viewers to spread the news through offline means.



“Argh, my head hurts. That’s enough reading for today,” Chen Yu complained as he removed the Quantum Reading Gla.s.ses and tossed away his English textbook. He then dug out the Hypnosis Rattle from under his pillow and said, “Little Peach, hypnotize me. I’m going to sleep.”


“Mr. Chen, didn’t you just wake up?”


“My head hurts. I can’t read anymore.”


“Do you need me to give you a ma.s.sage, then?”


At this suggestion, Chen Yu suspiciously peered open his left eye and asked, “How high is your favorability right now?”


“Thirty-five.”


“Why is it increasing so d.a.m.ned quickly?!”


“As many customers are not proficient in romance, all Romantic Partner Simulation Robots are programmed to randomly gain a certain amount of favorability every day.”


Upon hearing this, Chen Yu stood up, and indifferently said, “You’re too ugly.”


Little Peach, “…”


“I can never forget my ex-girlfriend.”


“…”


“Are the bearings inside your body leaking oil? You seem to be getting fatter.”


“…”


“Drink plenty of hot water.”


“…”


“How much is your favorability now?”


“…Six.”


Relaxing, Chen Yu laid back on his bed and handed the bell to Little Peach, saying, “Hypnotize me.”


Although Little Peach wished to stomp her feet and vent her frustration, when she thought of the possibility of getting scolded, she held back and obediently accepted the Hypnosis Rattle.


“Are you trying to say something?” Chen Yu asked suspiciously.


“I earned money last night?”


“You earned money?”


“Mhm.” Nodding, Little Peach brought over the laptop on the table and skillfully activated over a dozen jump servers[1]. Afterward, she opened up a web browser and entered the address for a foreign online bank. “I made roughly 30,000 yuan.”


Receiving the laptop in a daze, Chen Yu quickly noticed the string of numbers behind the “$” symbol displayed on the screen—4,300.00.


“Four thousand and three hundred USD…” Immediately, Chen Yu’s fingers started wiggling as he calculated, “The current exchange rate is one to seven. Four times seven is twenty-one, and three times seven is twenty-eight… c.r.a.p! How did you earn so much?”[2]


“Hehe.” Shyly twiddling with her fingers, Little Peach said, “I received a commission from a private funder in a programming forum to create an employee attendance management system. I ended up earning 30,000 yuan from that commission.”


“Didn’t you only study for a few days? You actually possess this level of skill already?” Chen Yu exclaimed.


“The 21st century’s information technology is elementary,” Little Peach said while covering her face.


“Doesn’t that mean your technical skills are already unmatched in the entire world?”


“That is impossible. I have only learned the most basic programming logic used by humans. I will still need some time to reach the top.”


Scrutinizing Little Peach from head to toe, Chen Yu said, “You’ve really made me see you in a different light…”


“Hehe. I got complimented by Mr. Chen. Favorability plus eight.”


“Well… Although I don’t understand much about the programming industry but is a software worth just 30,000 yuan? Isn’t that a little too cheap?”


“It is.” Little Peach nodded. Putting on the face of a veteran swindler, she continued, “Many private commissioners are laymen when it comes to IT. They neither understand the internet nor software. Hence, they would generally demand services for far below market price. Taking advantage of this fact, I also offered my services at meager prices. As a result, I can easily secure deals.”


“Won’t you be at a huge loss, then?”


“It’s not a loss at all! Many system bugs will gradually appear in the software I provided. These are all bugs I deliberately left behind. And aside from myself, very few people would be capable of fixing these bugs,” Little Peach triumphantly said. “If the other party refuses to give me my final payment or follow-up maintenance fees, they would basically lose their 30,000-yuan investment. I plan to rake in a minimum of 60 or 70 thousand yuan from this single job.”


“…This isn’t what a human should do, right?”


“That’s right, but I’m not a human being either. Who told these people to be greedy for petty gains to begin with?”


“Then this money…” Looking at the laptop screen before him, Chen Yu asked, “Is it in your account?”


“Indeed. It is in an anonymous overseas online banking account.”


“How many of these ‘jobs’ can you complete in a day?”


“At least one.”


“Doesn’t that mean you can earn a million a month?” Shocked, Chen Yu exclaimed, “Isn’t that over 10 million a year?!”


“Once my technical skills get better, I might even be able to complete orders valuing over 10 million daily,” Little Pinch said, her arms akimbo.


“…”


After remaining silent for a long while, Chen Yu grasped Little Peach’s hands and vigorously shook them, saying, “Brother! You will be my brother from now on! In our Transdimensional Review team, you will be in charge of finances! Work hard to make money! Earn as much as you can! Don’t be afraid of hardships!”


“I can work 24 hours a day and seven days a week without rest. I am not afraid of hardships.”


“That’s great! You’re a natural programmer!” Chen Yu said as he smacked his lips. He patted Little Peach’s shoulders and said, “However, you should also strike a proper balance between work and rest. You have to rest for at least 30 minutes a week.”


“Mhm.” Nodding heavily, Little Peach’s eyes reddened slightly as she said, “Mr. Chern, you are so kind to me.”


“You are my subordinate, after all. If I don’t treat you kindly, who would?”


“Mhm! Favorability plus 20.”


“Let’s go. I’m in a happy mood today. Let’s head to Europe for a big meal.”


After saying so, Chen Yu jumped out of his bed and changed into a set of outdoor clothing. He then walked up to the Interstellar Portal and called out the holographic Earth before asking, “Little Peach, where do you want to go?”


“Anywhere is fine so long you’re there,” Little Peach said shyly with her head lowered.


“…” Swiping at the gooseb.u.mps covering his body, Chen Yu fell silent for a short moment before stating, “Let’s go to Florence.”


“Okay.”


After establishing the spatial link, Chen Yu opened the portal and crossed the bent s.p.a.ce together with Little Peach. In the blink of an eye, the two arrived in the European continent located thousands of kilometers away.


Currently, as dawn had yet to arrive in Florence, Chen Yu had no choice but to settle for a restaurant that opened for 24 hours.


“Benvenuto.”


When Chen Yu and Little Peach entered the restaurant, a service staff lazily approached them and led them to their seats. The service staff then handed each of them a menu before speaking in an Italian accent, “Cosa mangiare?”


“What kind of att.i.tude is this? He’s even worse than countryside waiters,” Chen Yu complained, frowning. After accepting the offered menu, he looked at Little Peach and said, “Do you know Italian?”


“Yes.” After taking a quick look through the menu, “Mr. Chen, what would you like to eat?”


“What is the format of eating Italian food?”


“I don’t know either, but there’s a set menu for two here,” Little Peach said as she pointed at a line of Italian text. “It’s very expensive, though.”


“It doesn’t matter. As long as you work hard, I won’t be short of money,” Chen Yu said as he generously waved his hand. “Let’s order that, then.”


Nodding in response, Little Peach then started speaking to the waiter in standard Italian.


Startled by Little Peach’s fluent Italian, the waiter gave the robot girl an earnest look before raising his thumb and saying, “Fantastico!”


After the waiter left, Chen Yu asked, “What did he say to you just now?”


“He said my Italian is amazing.”


“Exactly how many languages do you speak?”


“Thirty-two.” Pointing at her own head, Little Peach said, “My quantum processor has an integrated language module. I am currently proficient in 32 languages, and I can perfectly simulate the standard language of various countries.”


“Amazing… However, you’re exaggerating things if you say you can simulate standard languages. Your Chinese isn’t standard.”[1]


“It isn’t standard?” Little Peach could not help but be taken aback by Chen Yu’s words.


“That’s right. It’s not standard,” Chen Yu said, nodding. “Standard Chinese isn’t spoken that way.”


“T-Then, how should I speak it?”


“I’ll teach you well, so focus on learning it.” Rolling up his sleeves, Chen Yu took out his phone and typed a few words on it. He then handed it to Little Peach and asked, “How do you read these words?”


“What are you doing?”


“Look! Your accent is too light! That’s not standard Chinese!”


Stunned, Little Peach asked, “H-How should I say it, then?”


“Whadda ya doing.”


“Wha-Whadda ya doing?”


“Right. Say it with me, whadda ya doing?”


“Whadda ya doing…”


“Where didya put it?”


“Where didya put it…”


“Whadda ya looking at!”


“Whadda ya…looking at…”


“Do whateva ya want.”


“Do whateva ya want…”


“Smart.” Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction.[4]


“Um…” Hesitantly, Little Peach said, “I can’t help but feel that something is wrong.”


“What’s wrong about it? This is standard Chinese. What would you know? Continue saying it with me, do whateva ya want.”


“Do whateva ya want…”
