Chapter 26 F-Class Sailing Ability

  Yesterday evening, I suddenly couldn't get online, and today during the day it still didn't work. The DSL indicator light on my router was always on, and there were no problems with the hardware or network cables. I was puzzled, until I looked at the date and suddenly realized that I had forgotten to pay this month's internet fee. I quickly paid the fee, and when I got back home I could get online again. Life is truly full of joy everywhere.

  The sun shines brightly, the willows are lush and verdant, the lake's surface is rippling with waves, lotus flowers are in full bloom. A simple-looking pleasure boat is moving on the lake's surface, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes turning left, sometimes right, sometimes advancing straight ahead, sometimes making an S-shaped turn. Many tourists rowing double-oared boats on the lake can't help but point at the pleasure boat and chat with laughter.

  By the riverbank, under a willow tree, Shang Guan Nengren was chatting with an ordinary-looking girl. The girl's name was Qiu Yingying, and she was a student in the Engineering College. After this summer vacation, she would be a junior. One year of study had allowed her to grasp mechanical dynamics, but when faced with this little brother who was two years younger than herself and hadn't even started high school yet, Qiu Yingying was shocked to discover that his knowledge of mechanical dynamics wasn't inferior to hers - in fact, it seemed to surpass hers by a hair.

  Qiu Yingying suppressed her surprise and asked in doubt: "Young Master Shangguan, are you really a high school student?"

  Shang Guan Nengren naturally knew where Qiu Yingying's surprise came from, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Of course, if you don't believe me, go ask around at our school. When I mention Shang Guan Nengren, not many people don't know who that is."

  This is true, Shangguan Zhaorou's name is too distinctive, and after hearing it, very few people can't remember it. At least among the same grade level, there are only a handful of people who don't know who Shangguan Zhaorou is.

  "It's really unbelievable." Qiu Yingying exclaimed: "You're just a high school student, yet you have such great skills in mechanical dynamics. My sister has been studying hard for a year and only has a little achievement now, but you are not worse than my sister."

  "It's nothing, I'm just interested in this area of knowledge and have been self-studying for a few years, but as for professional knowledge, I definitely can't compare to my sister." Upper Official Neng said humbly.

  Qiu Yingying shook her head and sighed softly, "It's really true that behind every able person is another able person! Magistrate Qiu, your name was well chosen, one can tell from the sound of it that you will make a good official in the future."

  "Cough, it's okay." Shang Guan Neng muttered in his heart: Still quite capable! This name has made me the laughing stock for over a decade.

  "Yingying!" Not far away, a girl walked over, and Shangguan Nengren turned his head to look, recognizing the girl who was with Qiu Yingying earlier.

  The girl walked up and took a glance at Nangeng Ren, then turned her head to ask Qiu Yingying: "Who is this?"

  Qiu Yingying pulled the girl's hand and smiled: "Yingying, let me introduce you to this young talent I just met. He's still a high school student, but his knowledge of mechanical dynamics is even more impressive than mine!"

  "Oh?" The girl looked at Shangguan Nengren in surprise, Shangguan Nengren felt a bit embarrassed, cleared his throat and stretched out his hand: "Hello sister, my name is Shangguan Nengren."

  Before meeting, the little boy was so awkward. The girl giggled and held Ouyang Neng's hand: "Hello, my name is Ren Yingying, from Navigation College."

  "Found F-class sailing boat, is it absorbed?"

  Wow! Old Heaven, have you finally opened your eyes?

  "Absorb!"

  "Absorption successful, host has acquired F-class spaceship operation capability."

  "Hmm, Yanyan sister, actually I'm not called Shangguan Nengren, my real name is Linghu Chong."

  Ren Yingying and Qiu Yingying were both stunned for a moment, then suddenly came to their senses, almost simultaneously bursting out laughing. Ren Yingying tapped the top of Shang Guanneng's head and chuckled: "Little brother, you're not trying to hit on your sister, are you?"

  "Cough, no, it's just that sister's name is too heroic, little brother can't help but make a joke." Shang Guan Neng said with a dry smile.

  "It's really interesting." Qiu Yingying patted Shang Guan Nengren's shoulder and laughed, "Want to chase our Holy Girl? It's not easy! The Navigation College has many wolves and few lambs. Our Holy Girl has at least a reinforced company of pursuers!"

  "You'd better give up! The girls in our Navigation College are not many, but compared to the Engineering College, that's a large crowd, haha, Officer Brother, this Yingying sister is even more popular than me! If I have a battalion of pursuers, then this Yingying sister has an army!" Ren Yingying joked.

  Two girls laughing and chatting together, Upper Official Nengren was tongue-tied. Ren Yingying and Qiu Yingying were both the kind of girls who didn't look stunning at first glance. In everyday life, they blended in with the crowd, but in an art academy, they would be considered ugly ducklings. However, in a maritime or engineering academy where men outnumbered women, they became hot commodities. This fact taught Upper Official Nengren that it wasn't how a woman looked that mattered, but rather how she chose to present herself, in order to maximize her own value.

  Just like an oasis in the desert, when placed in a region with abundant water sources, the oasis is unremarkable, but in the desert, it's more precious than gold. This is indeed a rare treasure! Upper Official Ren understood.

  Not long after chatting with the two girls, the simple cruise ship docked. From a distance, someone called out to the two girls, and they reluctantly bid farewell to Officer Nangeng. Although they didn't chat for long, he absorbed their professional knowledge, making it easy for him to chat with them. The two girls felt like they had met kindred spirits.

  Before leaving, the two girls left their contact information with Shang Guan Nengren, and Shang Guan Nengren solemnly accepted the contact information of the two girls. He didn't take a fancy to the beauty of the two girls; they were at least ten streets away from Xiang Beibei and Xin Yuanyuan in terms of looks, but their identities as students of the Engineering College and Navigation College were of great use to Shang Guan Nengren. If he wanted to absorb higher-level related abilities in the future, it would be easy to go to their colleges and recruit a few wolves through his relationship with the two girls.

  The official is quite clever with his abacus!

  After bidding farewell to the two women, Shangguan A'ni also left Ming Water Lake.

  Originally, Shangguan Nian'er just wanted to come to Ming Water Lake to try his luck, but he didn't expect his luck to be so good, not only did he absorb the mechanical abilities he expected, but also extra ship driving skills.

  Now, medical skills, cooking, computer, martial arts, and forgery are all F-level. Driving has already included driving cars and ships, only planes are left. The big item of equipment has also completed electrical appliances and machinery, only firearms are left.

  The ability to fly a plane, you have to go to an aviation school for that. As for firearms skills... Officer Wang thinks it's better to visit the police station first, after all, the military base is heavily guarded, if you're unlucky and they mistake you for a spy, they'll shoot you dead, and you won't even have a chance to explain yourself. It's best not to go unless absolutely necessary.

  Apart from this, the three major items to be absorbed have not made any moves yet. Shang Guan is also very worried. He always wants to absorb the three powerful items to maximize the functionality of "Ten Items Full Ability", but the abilities he touched in the mall a while ago were all trash. Shang Guan feels that absorbing these garbage abilities would be a bit unfair to the powerful external function of "Ten Items Full Ability".

  "Ah!" On the way home by bike, a gentle breeze blew across his face, and Shang Guan Neng let out a soft sigh: "There are still over ten days left in summer vacation, try to go to crowded places as much as possible! Thinking about it, I'm also quite weird. Others struggle to find work that matches their major after graduation, but I have too many options and don't know what to choose. What a happy worry!"

  If those job-seeking graduates knew what was on the mind of their superior, they would definitely smash a brick into his face and make him feel ashamed.
