Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he said, "You didn't see such a big flaw?" Gao Zixuan pursed his lips and said, "How would I know this?" Li Rui asked again, "Why did you make the lion's head into a dragon's head?" Gao Zixuan said, "The one surnamed Feng said that those jade chiseling masters were worried that the imperial family would hold them responsible. After all, even though the Qing dynasty was destroyed, the imperial family was still around." Li Rui said, "You've suffered a big loss this time." Gao Zixuan played it down and said, "Just treat it as paying for a lesson. Last year, someone saw this jade seal of mine and wanted to buy it. He offered ten million but I didn't sell it. "Li Rui said," Why didn't you sell it? At least you can recoup some of your losses. " Gao Zixuan said, "Why would I sell it? I don't lack money. I just like it. Even if I was cheated, I'll accept it."
Lu Qingman laughed and said, "Did you see a rich man?" Li Rui nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, I saw it. I'm convinced."
Gao Zixuan then brought the two of them to admire the various treasures displayed in the treasure pavilion. Needless to say, there were quite a lot of treasures. There were all kinds of things and everything. Even though none of them were as valuable as the tortoiseshell pearl, there were still many treasures that made people's eyes light up and unable to part with them.
In the end, Li Rui asked, "How much did all the treasures in your treasury cost you in total?" Gao Zixuan did a quick calculation and said, "At least several tens of millions." Li Rui was speechless and said, "You've hidden such a large fortune in your home. Aren't you afraid that someone will steal it?" Gao Zixuan glanced at him and said, "I've been collecting treasures for many years and have never been stolen. Since you said so, in the future whenever I lose any treasure in my house, I'll blame it on you. I'm sure it was you who stole it. "Li Rui laughed in spite of himself," Why? "Gao Zixuan snorted," Because you harbor evil intentions. "
Li Rui looked at her with a smile and said in his heart, "Little wife, little wife, even if I came to your house to steal things, I would steal from you. I would never steal from your treasures."
When the three of them went down from the second floor, a few more friends came. There were two men and two women. They were about the same age as Gao Zixuan. It was obvious that they were friends of the same age.
Gao Zixuan introduced the four people one by one to Li Rui and his wife. The six of them got to know each other very quickly.
The two men's identities were somewhat unusual. One of them was thin, tall, and semi-bald. His name was An Zengqi. He graduated from Shannan Medical University and majored in veterinary medicine. After graduation, he opened a pet hospital in the provincial capital. He didn't know how Gao Zixuan knew him. Li Rui guessed that it was most likely when Gao Zixuan went to his pet hospital to treat his beloved dog, Xiao Niu.
The other one was a good-looking young man called Lu Xing. Although he was young, he had many identities. He was a writer, a screenwriter, a gourmet, an explorer, an inventor, a Tai Chi master, and even a member of the Provincial Psychology Association. The series of titles he had was unbelievable.
Li Rui had always been a well-behaved person. The friends and family he had interacted with were also ordinary workers. He had never seen people with such special jobs like the two in front of him. Especially Lu Xing. How old was this guy? He was only in his twenties, but he had so many identities. Could it be that he started learning when he was in his mother's womb? Otherwise, how could he master so many skills in different professions? For a moment, he was surprised and curious. He wanted to have a good chat with these two people and learn more about their work.
Lu Xing was a cheerful person. He took the initiative to invite Li Rui and said, "Brother Li, do you like to play chess? I will play two games with Zengqi. How about you teach me a strategy? "Li Rui smiled and said," Okay, I want to learn. "
Lu Xing came to the dining room with familiarity. He took out a set of chess from the cupboard and set it on the table. He and An Zengqi sat opposite each other and started to play chess.
Seeing that he was so familiar with Gao Zixuan's family, Li Rui was very puzzled and also a bit jealous. He suspected that he and his "little wife" had a deeper relationship than just friends. Suppressing the jealousy in his heart, he walked over and stood to the side to watch. He saw that Lu Xing's chess moves were bold and bold, moving forward bravely, rarely stopping to think. He didn't know if it was because his chess skills were brilliant and he didn't put An Zengqi in his eyes at all, or if he already knew An Zengqi's chess skills like the back of his hand. On the other hand, An Zengqi was playing steadily and steadily, carefully making his moves. Every move had to be carefully considered before making a move. The two of them fought back and forth. After eliminating a rook and taking a few pawns from each other, they moved from the opening game to the middle game. They were evenly matched and there was no clear winner.
After watching for a while, Li Rui had a certain understanding of their chess skills. Neither of them were very good at chess and had mastered a certain amount of killing moves. However, their layouts were relatively shallow and the intention of their killing moves was too obvious. They seemed inexperienced and childish. They could be considered as chess enthusiasts. At this level, even the old men on the streets who played chess to pass the time in their old age couldn't beat them.
However, Li Rui didn't dare to make fun of the two of them because his chess skills weren't that good either. Compared to the two of them, they were on par.
Chess, an ancient sport, was all about wisdom and foresight. Chess players needed to use their brains to play. They had to observe the situation of both sides from time to time. They had to grasp the intentions of the other side at every move and make tactical responses and strategic layouts. It could be said that it was an activity that required the brain to work at all times. Those who didn't like to think, were impulsive, and didn't consider the consequences would definitely not be good at chess. Of course, like all chess and card activities, chess also required talent. Some people might be very clumsy in other things, but they could perform extremely well on the chessboard. This kind of situation often happened in real life: A chess veteran who had been playing for more than ten years had just taught someone how to play chess yesterday, but in the end, he wasn't the other person's match today. This could only mean that the other person had the talent.
Su Dongpo had a good saying in a poem, "It's too late to read a book in this life." It was the same principle. Not everything required talent, but if you had a certain kind of talent, you would be able to do better and better at the corresponding task.
Li Rui didn't think that he had the talent to play chess, but he seemed to have the talent to be a secretary. He had developed a cautious personality since he was young, and because of his low self-esteem, he became proactive and good at observing and learning. These qualities were necessary to be a secretary. The only thing he lacked was experience. He believed that after a few years of training under the boss, he would become a top-notch secretary. Of course, when that time came, he might not be a secretary anymore.
At this time, the first game between Lu Xing and An Zengqi had already ended. No matter how cautious An Zengqi was, he couldn't resist Lu Xing's murderous aura. He was forced to retreat step by step, and when the situation was clear, he took the initiative to admit defeat. The two quickly started the second game.
Li Rui stole a glance at Gao Zixuan's side. The girls were gathered together and chatting about something. It looked very lively. It seemed that one of the girls had suggested playing mahjong, and the girls were discussing who to participate in the game.
He turned his head back and continued to watch the game. In this game, Lu and An's style didn't change at all. It was exactly the same as the previous game. Lu Xing continued to attack step by step. An Zengqi, on the other hand, made his defensive line impenetrable. He planned to defend first and then counterattack. However, Lu Xing obviously didn't intend to let him have his way. As soon as the game started, they repeatedly exchanged pieces. After they exchanged five or six pieces, a big hole appeared in An Zengqi's defense. Lu Xing took the opportunity to attack and finally won in one fell swoop.
Li Rui was secretly amused. In fact, according to a national chess master in the country, if one side frequently used their chess power to exchange pieces in the other side's defense, it was equivalent to doing useless work and making ten or so moves in vain. On the other hand, the other side exchanged pieces on the spot, which was several times more efficient. However, that was based on the fact that both sides were at the same level. Lu Xing's level was higher than An Zengqi's, so the difference in efficiency wouldn't cause any trouble for him.
An Zengqi lost two games in a row and was a little uncomfortable in front of Li Rui, a strange spectator. He smiled embarrassedly and said, "Brother Li, it's better if you do it. I can't." As he spoke, he got up and moved aside.
Li Rui was also itching to play, so he walked over and sat down with no trace of politeness to play against Lu Xing.
During this process, An Zengqi's eyes were fixed on him as he laid out the chess pieces. Li Rui noticed his gaze from the corner of his eye and felt that his gaze was somewhat unkind. It was as if he was hoping that he would lose to Lu Xing as well so that he wouldn't lose face.
Soon, the game started. Lu Xing made the first move with his red. As soon as he came up, he adopted an offensive rhythm and attacked first!
Li Rui played steadily and steadily. He got on his right horse and jumped it!
Lu Xing directly used his pawn to restrain his right horse's top three moves.
Li Rui also used a Head Cannon to slightly restrain his attack and force him to defend …
The moves that the two of them made were all basic routines. There was nothing remarkable about them. An Zengqi watched from the side expressionlessly. Perhaps he felt that it was meaningless.
After Li Rui and Lu Xing finished setting up, they entered the stage of probing and killing. Very quickly, a few pieces were moved out of the chessboard. An Zengqi grabbed all of them in his hands and played with them while watching the game with rapt attention.
At this time, Gao Zixuan suddenly came over with a few girls and asked Li Rui, "Did you win or lose?" An Zengqi said, "They just started. I lost two games." Gao Zixuan laughed and threw a flirtatious glance at Li Rui, saying, "We're going up to the Great Wall. You guys have fun."
