continued on talking to Molly Android back on Earth. It seems that
the medical repair chips the androids had implanted in her family
were working were working just fine and her family was looking better
and getting stronger every day. Molly's father was feeling so much
better that he was getting many inspirational ideas to make the farm
run more efficiently. The family was starting to get ahead
financially.
It
seems that Mr. Stirling had invented a wind powered turbine that
powered a dynamo that pumped water and lit lights for their home and
when other people found out about many wealthy residents of the area
when they found out they wanted the system and it was
selling
rapidly throughout the southern new england areas that were still
without electricity. He was getting rich! Sterling had contracted
several manufacturers to build the parts that he was designing. He
then had his own people assembling the parts in a rented factory.
In
actuality, Molly Android was keeping him just far enough out in front
of the current technology to get rich without arousing the suspicion
of the scientists of the day. She was feeding electric impulses into
his brain as he slept. The electronic chips that the androids had
implanted in him were starting to educate him in advanced
technologies. It would not be long before she introduced him to the
world of subcontracting where he could design the various parts he
needed and let someone else worry about making them. It would not be
long before he built an assembly plant that would build the various
products that he would invent. Molly Android was certainly taking
very good care of the Sterling family!
Meanwhile,
Molly Sterling back on the spaceship heading for Mars was very
pleased to hear all the good news from Molly Android back on earth in
1910.
Just
then Jennifer returned to the day room and said, I see that you are
getting used to working with the “Boss Computer.” Molly replied,
“Yes well it's really quite simple, all I have to do is talk to it
and tell it what I need.” Jennifer said,” the main thing to
remember is that each “Boss Computer” is always in contact with
every other computer in our entire system and the “Boss” can
locate any of our human or robot crew at all times. If you ever have
an emergency you can mentally signal the “Boss” at all times.”
