what do u mean by ASIC? I need to buy these things and do what? connect them with my PC? or just doing it with them and not doing anything with my pc.?

ASIC stands for Application-Specific Integrated Circuit.  Its basically a specialized computer that only does 1 thing, mine for bitcoins, and does it extremely efficiently.  You buy one, some connect through a USB to your computer, most just connect through an ethernet cable to your router.  Then they just run.

Laptops, or desktops actually, will not earn any bitcoins anymore.  You need an ASIC to earn any amount of bitcoins.  Try looking up Bitmain...they are the only company shipping new units at the moment.

I wouldn't even recommend trying it out on your laptop.  The pool will probably not recognize such a low hashrate and you will just burn your computer out pretty fast.
