In the town of Shanfeng, there were many game arcades. Chen Mo won money from one arcade to another, even skipping lunch.

It wasn't until 1 PM that Chen Mo finally stopped. He patted his bulging pocket and said happily, "Finally won ten thousand yuan! This money should be enough to buy a computer, right?"

Seeing that it was still early, driven by his desire for a computer, Chen Mo immediately clutched his wallet and ran to the bus station.

There was no place to buy computers in Shanfeng town, so Chen Mo planned to go to the county town.

After an hour-long bus ride, Chen Mo got off the bus in the county town. After asking around, he finally found a place to buy computers at 2:30 PM.

This was a street dedicated to computers. Although there were only a dozen or so merchants, it was considered quite large for a small coastal county town.

Chen Mo tried to suppress his excitement and began to look at each store one by one.

Just like when he played the gambling machines, he chose to observe the situation first before making a decision, because he didn't want to be overcharged if he didn't know the prices.

Chen Mo started wandering between the stores. When he walked to one of the shops, he suddenly saw a job posting on the glass door, indicating that the store owner was looking for a helper to manage the store's cleanliness and miscellaneous tasks.

Chen Mo thought for a moment, then walked into the store.

Ten minutes later, Chen Mo came out. Before leaving, he smiled at the store owner and said, "Brother Li, I'll go home to pack my things and report for work tomorrow."

A man in his late twenties smiled and nodded, "Alright, you come directly tomorrow, I'll be waiting for you in the store."

After Chen Mo left, the man couldn't help but feel happy, "This kid is willing to work for free, such a good deal is hard to come by!"

To get this job where he could work with computers every day, Chen Mo directly proposed to the boss that he would work for free.

At first, the boss was a bit surprised and suspicious. He thought Chen Mo was a bit strange, especially since Chen Mo always looked at the computers in the counter with eager eyes. The boss even thought Chen Mo had ulterior motives.

Later, Chen Mo said he wanted to experience life during the summer vacation and showed the money in his pocket to appear wealthy, which finally put the boss at ease.

On the way home, Chen Mo was extremely happy. When he got home, he told his parents about his plan to work. At first, his parents strongly opposed it, but they finally agreed after Chen Mo's persistent pleading.

The next morning, Chen Mo left home with his packed luggage. Chen Sanjin and his wife saw him off to the car, repeatedly reminding him to be careful, and then waved goodbye.

Chen Mo's mother even shed tears, as if he were going abroad.

In the following days, Chen Mo settled into the store. He worked very diligently and was exceptionally hardworking and sweet-tempered, so he quickly gained good relations on the commercial street dedicated to selling computers.

Although Chen Mo was just a helper doing miscellaneous tasks, he never forgot his original intention. Whenever he had free time, he would talk to the boss about computer-related matters.

The boss really liked this free helper. To keep Chen Mo working for free in his store, he always answered Chen Mo's questions, somewhat trying to please him.

Chen Mo made rapid progress in this environment. After a while, the boss suddenly found that he couldn't keep up with Chen Mo's pace, especially when Chen Mo occasionally raised some strange questions, which always gave him a headache.

One afternoon, with no business in the store, after Chen Mo finished cleaning, he sat down with the boss to chat. The topic naturally turned to computers. Chen Mo held a computer brochure and asked, "Brother Li, do you think it's possible to install two chips in a computer? This way, the computer's processing speed would be much faster, right?"

Brother Li's head ached when he heard this. He was just a computer seller, and although he had some knowledge of computers, such a question was clearly beyond his ability. He chuckled and said, "I don't know, Xiao Chen, how did you come up with this idea? Why don't you tell Brother Li your thoughts?"

Whenever Brother Li encountered such a headache-inducing question, he would always use this method to throw the question back to Chen Mo. Then Chen Mo would talk at length, and all Brother Li had to do was nod continuously.

He nodded not because he agreed with Chen Mo's views, but to flatter Chen Mo and keep him working for free.

Sure enough, as soon as Brother Li finished speaking, Chen Mo said, "The performance of a computer largely depends on its processing speed. Current processors are not fast enough, which is reflected in the computer's slow response to instructions, especially when dealing with complex logical operations. The computer's response speed is so slow that it can even freeze. To solve this problem, the best solution is to add chips to the computer, which is like giving it two brains. By modifying the software and hardware, the user's instructions can be evenly distributed to the two brains, and the results can be integrated after processing, thus achieving dual-core operation. This way, the computer's performance will be greatly improved, at least twice as fast as current computers."

While Chen Mo was explaining his views, Brother Li kept nodding and making sounds like "Mm" and "Oh," clearly just humoring Chen Mo.

However, Chen Mo didn't notice this and continued excitedly, "Of course, if the integration technology of computers reaches a certain level, the two chips can be directly integrated into one chip. This can reduce the likelihood of computer failures, as fewer parts mean higher reliability. Even if there is a problem, it will be easier to repair—right, Brother Li?"

Brother Li laughed and said, "Mm, what you said makes a lot of sense! By the way, go see if there are any customers on the street. If there are no customers, we can close early today."

It was only 4 PM. Chen Mo nodded and poked his head out to look outside. Seeing no one on the street, he said, "There's no one outside, Brother Li, are you going to meet Sister Hong again today?"

Brother Li smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Hong is not easy to pursue. It's been almost two years, and she still hasn't agreed to marry me. I have to be more attentive, right?"

After saying this, Brother Li stood up, picked up his bag, and walked out. Before leaving, he said to Chen Mo, "I won't be back tonight, you can sleep in my bed."

The store was very small, and Chen Mo usually slept on the floor. He could only sleep in the bed when Brother Li was not around. Chen Mo smiled mischievously and said, "Have a good time, Brother Li."

Brother Li laughed and scolded, "Don't think too much, I just want to go home, not as dirty as you think."
