About an hour later, the little old man opened his eyes slightly and stared straight at the chessboard.
What's going on?
It was obviously very smooth and enjoyable, so why did he fail inexplicably?
What went wrong?
The little old man was a little confused. He touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
After a while, the little old man came to life again.
"One more!"
The little old man finished losing all the numbers and found that he had only lost three.
In the battle between amateur players, three meshes is a very small number. Among amateur chess players, anything below ten meshes is considered to be a close match.
If the level difference is too large, a few dozen meshes is normal.
Soon, the second round officially began.
At this moment, the little old man did not realize the seriousness of the problem. To be precise, he did not realize that this game was a guide chess game.
What is coaching chess?
Generally speaking, it refers to a game between high-level players and low-level players. The higher-level player instructs or guides the correct chess path.
The little old man felt that this game was particularly comfortable, all because of the guidance.
Li Jie deliberately guided him to the most correct position. The food was already in his mouth. How could he still feel uncomfortable?
It's a pity that the old man's Go level is slightly poor and he failed to notice this.
Snap!
Snap!
Both sides were moving very quickly, and the stars were falling like rain. The little old man once again realized that the game was over.
"One more!"
"continue!"
"Next one!"
Before I knew it, it was already evening.
Another game ended. This time, the little old man did not continue to shout for the next one. The hunger in his belly reminded him that it was time to eat.
Looking down at the time, the little old man realized that it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
He had been playing chess for seven consecutive hours from around nine o'clock in the morning to now, and he didn't feel anything during the game.
Now that he came back to his senses, he realized that he was not only dizzy, but also hungry.
"No more, no more."
The little old man waved his hand and hung up his no-war sign.
We can't continue playing. People are like iron and rice is like steel. Even if we regard chess as our destiny, we can't continue playing blindly.
"Little guy, are you hungry too?"
The little old man chuckled and waved.
"Grandpa invites you to dinner, okay?"
Li Jie is indeed a little hungry. Although playing chess with the little old man doesn't take much effort, how can he not be hungry after playing for such a long time?
The reason why it has not been stopped is entirely because of money.
Except for the first game, the jackpot in subsequent games has risen to 40 yuan. He has won six games in a row, which means he has won 240 yuan.
Including the 20 yuan from the first game, Li Jie won 260 yuan in just seven hours.
Two hundred and sixty in 2006 was not a small amount of money.
If they save a little, the money will be enough to feed their family of three for more than half a month.
"Then thank you, grandpa."
It is human nature to engage in prostitution for free. Li Jie would certainly not miss the opportunity to eat and drink for free.
"Let's go."
With that said, the little old man stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly and unhurriedly towards the door.
"Old Wang, are you leaving?"
Seeing that the little old man was about to leave, the boss of the chess club said hello cheerfully.
It can be said that the boss of the chess club saw the little old man's "miserable defeat" throughout the whole process. He suffered repeated defeats and repeated defeats. He thought that the little old man didn't know how tired he was.
"Gone."
The little old man smiled and waved. Although he lost more than two hundred yuan, with his wealth, he really didn't care.
Until now, he had barely come back to his senses.
This time I met a ‘master’.
Although this 'master' is not very old, he is the first to master, and there is no shame in losing to such a little guy.
Moreover, he also found that his chess ability seemed to have improved a bit.
Although he hasn't confirmed it yet, he believes in his feeling.
Why does he play colorful chess?
Isn’t it just for promotion?
Gaining chess is the ultimate goal. Winning or losing is not important, and money is not important either.
Unfortunately, there was no review of the previous games.
As we all know, review is one of the fastest ways to improve your game.
Suddenly, an idea came to the little old man's mind.
'Why don't we discuss it with the little guy and add a review session if we place it again in the future?'
Anyway, he is not short of money. As long as it is a problem that can be solved with money, it is not a problem!
Not long after, the little old man took Li Jie to a small restaurant on the street. The two of them walked all the way there without driving or taking a taxi.
I have to say that this is a bit inconsistent with what Li Jie expected.
However, there are also many low-key rich people in China. There are many people like the little old man who don't look like much on the outside but are actually very rich.
Although the place to eat is a small street restaurant, the food in this restaurant tastes really good.
In the era of developed self-media, this restaurant definitely has the potential to become an Internet celebrity store.
Halfway through the meal, the little old man wiped his mouth and suddenly said.
"Little guy, you are not an ordinary teenager, right?"
Although the little old man's chess skills are not very high, his vision is not bad. He has seen a lot of young men who compete with each other, but there are not many who are as good as Li Jie.
He felt that the little guy in front of him was at least a semi-professional chess player.
"It's just average."
Li Jie smiled slightly. His words were not modest. Frankly speaking, the strength he showed today was only at the level of a quasi-professional chess player.
He won easily simply because the little old man's level was a bit inferior.
"hehe."
The little old man chuckled. Apparently, he thought it was modesty.
However, he did not continue to struggle with this topic, but changed the subject.
"I have a proposal, please listen to it first."
Li Jie raised his head and glanced at him, with a little 'surprise' in his eyes.
Seeing this, the old man continued.
"This way, I've got you covered."
"One game of chess, two hundred!"
"However, I also have a request. After the chess game is over, a review must be conducted."
The little old man doesn't have much else, he just has a lot of money. He won't be stingy with anything he can spend money on.
According to his observations, the family situation of the young man in front of him should not be very good, and it was not difficult to find this out.
The clothes the boy in front of me was wearing were not of a certain brand, and the quality of the clothes was not very good, and the style was very old.
Some places have been washed and turned white.
He concluded that this young man was one of those talented players who stood out due to his talent.
Talent is such an unreasonable thing.
Just like writing a book, some people write it casually and it becomes a classic, while some people can't write a masterpiece even if they put in all their efforts and painstaking efforts.
This is the difference in talent!
"good!"
On the other side, after hearing the little old man's conditions, Li Jie agreed without thinking.
Two hundred and one game is more profitable than playing chess, so why should you hesitate?
