Chapter 14 Asking for Money to Sponsor a Bicycle
Hearing this, the Smiling Buddha laughed loudly and said: "Young Taigong Jiang, are you kidding me?"
"The current situation in the chess game is that I have a slight advantage, but you actually say that I have lost."
Jiang Dongxu smiled slightly and said: "How about this, Mr. Smiling Buddha, how about we make a bet?"
"Every next move I make, you will have no choice but to respond until I win the game with a decisive victory."
"If I do it, then give me the box in your coat pocket specially for China."
"And even if you have the slightest chance to counterattack, you will treat me as a loser and I will give you my big fish. What do you think?"
After saying that, he lifted up his five or six kilogram big fish and shook it.
Jia Dongxu had long discovered that the old man not only had a box of soft-packed Zhonghua in front of him, but also had a box of white special Zhonghua cigarettes in his jacket pocket.
How could he let it go if he had the chance to get the old man's special supply of Chinese cigarettes?
The Smiling Buddha was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "I will accept your bet. You gave me a big fish for free. I have no reason to refuse it."
Seeing the Smiling Buddha agreeing, Jia Dongxu smiled proudly and said: "Master Smiling Buddha, you should take good care of it."
After saying that, he picked up the chess pieces and started playing chess along the river.
Every step the Smiling Buddha takes next is a struggle to deal with, as if his army must respond to the siege.
In the meantime, Jia Dongxu gave both cars to the Smiling Buddha.
It seems that the overall strength of the Smiling Buddha's chess pieces is much stronger.
However, it was all in vain. Jia Dongxu urged him to kill him step by step, and the Smiling Buddha had no power to fight back.
Both sides made about 20 moves, and the chess game was inextricable.
Jia Dongxu won this game very beautifully.
"This...I actually lost?"
The Smiling Buddha stared at the chessboard with disbelief on his face.
"It's so exciting. This young man, Jiang Taigong, lost both his rooks in the end, and he actually won the game."
"It's so wonderful! This sent two cars in a row, and finally led to a decisive victory. How many people have such courage?"
"That's right, this young man...young Jiang Taigong must have calculated everything well. This kind of calculation is so powerful."
……
The old men watching the chess game couldn't help but applaud.
"Um... Young Mr. Jiang, I should have other ways to deal with the situation in some places before. Other ways may not necessarily lead to a losing situation."
The Smiling Buddha looked up at Jia Dongxu with a look of reluctance.
"I can review it with you, but now you have to give me that box of special supplies to China."
"I dare say that no matter how you respond, you will definitely lose in the end."
Jia Dongxu smiled and said confidently.
"Okay, isn't it just cigarettes? I'll give it to you. I don't believe that any move can break the game."
The Smiling Buddha took out the box of special gifts for China from his coat pocket and threw it to Jia Dongxu with a distressed look on his face.
Jia Dongxu took it and opened it, only two pieces were missing.
He took out one, lit it happily, took a long puff, and slowly blew out a smoke ring.
Smoking Special China cigarettes, which even the rich can't buy, feels different.
"Come on, Mr. Smiling Buddha, let's review the game, starting from when I said you were going to lose."
"Okay, come on, I don't believe in this evil anymore."
The two spent another half an hour walking through several other variations.
The final result is the same, Jia Dongxu presses the enemy step by step, and finally forms a sure-win move.
But on the side of the Smiling Buddha, there is no move that can be made freely, and everything is passively dealt with.
The old men watching the chess game became even more shocked.
This is simply calculating all the changes in the chess game.
The Smiling Buddha looked at Jia Dongxu and sighed loudly: "As expected of the young Jiang Taigong, your calculations are too far-reaching. I am convinced that I lost this game."
"Haha, thank you. It's getting late now, so I'll leave first and play chess together when we have a chance."
Jia Dongxu laughed, stood up, picked up the fishing rod, picked up the fish and left.
I earned a box of special Chinese cigarettes, so I won’t lose money playing chess.
But after taking only a few steps, he was stopped by the Smiling Buddha.
"Young Taigong Jiang, wait a moment, I have something to do with you."
"Let's talk about it next time if we have anything to do. I have to rush back to get the fish to cook for my family."
"I'll have a few words with you in as little time as I need."
"Okay, Mr. Smiling Buddha, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Jia Dongxu paused helplessly, after all, the special supply to China in his pocket was obtained from this old man.
"Ahem, that's it. My name is Zhou Lishu, and I am the president of the Beijing Chess Society. My nickname in the chess world is the Smiling Buddha."
Mr. Zhou Lishu, the Smiling Buddha, coughed and proudly revealed his identity.
"Uncle Zhou, you are still the president of the Beijing Chess Society. How disrespectful."
"That's not right. How come you, the president of the Beijing Chess Society, come to play chess in a place like this?"
Jia Dongxu was surprised at first, and then looked at Zhou Lishu with confusion.
When Zhou Lishu heard this, the proud and proud expression on his face instantly solidified.
Zhou Lishu coughed and said, "Ahem, aren't I getting older? My energy is not as good as before, so I don't really want to play chess with someone who has learned chess."
"I just walk around and find places like this to play chess, just to relax."
Jia Dongxu smiled and nodded: "Oh, I understand!"
"You are a chess player who cannot learn how to play chess, so you are just running outside to bully those bad chess players. Understand, understand."
Zhou Lishu's face turned red with embarrassment and he waved his hand: "Forget about this, I would like to invite you to join the Beijing Chess Society."
This brat, what are you talking about? Is there anyone who slaps someone in the face like this?
"No interest, I'll leave now. See you later."
Upon hearing this, Jia Dongxu immediately waved his hand and walked away.
What a joke, he is preparing to let Qin Huairu take his job at the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill and live a leisurely retirement life.
If you join the Beijing Chess Society, wouldn't you be looking for trouble?
Zhou Lishu quickly grabbed Jia Dongxu: "Hey, don't leave. It's a great thing to join the Beijing Chess Society. Why aren't you happy?"
"With your level, it won't be long before you become number one in the capital."
"If a national chess competition is held in the future and you win the national championship, wouldn't you gain both fame and fortune?"
Zhou Lishu is a little confused. Usually when he invites people to join the Beijing Chess Society, no one is overjoyed.
Why are you so reluctant to come to Jia Dongxu?
"I don't have time. I'm a worker at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill. I usually have to go to work."
Jia Dongxu just found an excuse to evade.
"When you are off work or on vacation, you can just go and play one or two games with people from the Xiangqi Society. You don't have to stay in the Xiangqi Society all day."
"If we don't delay, we may still win the national championship in the future. What a great thing?"
Zhou Lishu did not give up and still tried to persuade Jia Dongxu.
Jia Dongxu thought for a moment, and then his eyes lit up.
He looked at Zhou Lishu as if he were a fat sheep.
"Uncle Zhou, it's not impossible for me to join the Beijing Chess Society."
"Look, I don't even have a bicycle now. It's so inconvenient to go out."
"You can even get the special offer from China, so your family must be in good condition."
"How about you sponsor me a bicycle?"
Jia Dongxu looked at Zhou Lishu with a smile, as if he was convinced of Zhou Lishu.
"You kid, you haven't even joined the Beijing Chess Society yet, yet you are making excessive demands."
