"Wargame?"

Su Cheng murmured in a low voice, then turned his head and looked at the voice.

And Carol was also attracted by the cry, and turned around with Su Cheng almost at the same time.

After moving his eyes to the birthplace of the cry, Su Cheng saw a dense circle of people on one side of the street not far away.

The circle of people surrounded a small open space.

In this small open space, there is a large chess board. On the large chess board standing on the ground, chess pieces made of magnet are adhered.

A middle-aged man was standing next to the big chessboard. It seemed that the call for people to play chess just now was made by this man.

What are you doing?

Su Cheng's heart aroused a little curiosity.

"Carol," Su Cheng said, turning his head to one side, "shall we go and have a look?"

"Well, well, I'm curious, too."

Then Su Cheng and Carol got closer and squeezed into the circle of people around the big chessboard.

After getting closer, Su Cheng found that not only a large military chess board stood in the small open space surrounded by the crowd.

In front of this large chess board, there is also a small wooden table. On this small wooden table, there is a set of chess pieces that have been arranged.

On the left side of the small wooden table, a young man sat.

The young man had a confident smile on his face. In his confident smile, there was still some arrogance.

What are they doing?

Maintaining such doubts, Su Cheng asked a passer-by standing next to him.

After asking, Su Cheng learned that the middle-aged man and the young man in the small open space surrounded by spectators were a pair.

The pair traveled around the world and earned their living expenses and travel expenses by playing military chess.

The rule of the pair is like this: pay 200 francs, and then you can get the chance to play chess with the young man.

The middle-aged man was responsible for operating the large standing chessboard and moving the pieces made of magnet, so as to show the chess process between the challenger and the young man to the audience.

If you can win the young man, you can take any of the beautiful gifts placed on the young man. If you don't win, it's a pity that you are not qualified to take any gift, and the 200 British francs you pay will be wasted.

As the passer-by explained to Su Cheng, he pointed to the young man's feet.

Su Cheng looked in the direction of passers-by's fingers and found a large number of gifts at the young man's feet.

There are many kinds of gifts, including wine, clothes, famous specialties in other places, books... And so on.

Su Cheng glanced over and found a lot of gifts. The price of almost every one was far more than 200 British Lang.

After listening to the passers-by's brief introduction, Su Cheng smiled, nodded and said:

"I see. This challenge is really attractive. As long as you pay 200 British Lang, you will have the opportunity to choose a gift worth far more than 200 British lang. it sounds very profitable."

As soon as Su Cheng's voice fell, the passer-by smiled twice and then said:

"How could it be so easy for you to choose any gift? Let me tell you, that young man is great! I've been watching them play chess here since just now. Five people came up to challenge the young man. As a result, none of them could last 10 minutes on the chessboard! Five people lost one after another! Give away 1000 yuan! It is precisely because this young man is so powerful that no one dares to challenge him now. "

"So, the money making method of this two person combination is very powerful." Su Cheng said in a tone of praise, "he directly attacked the weakness of greed in human nature, set the challenge fee to 200 British Lang, and then deliberately bought a lot of gifts worth far more than 200 British Lang to lure people to challenge."

Finally, Su Cheng paused and then said:

"Moreover, this two person combination is also very confident. If they are not good at chess, they will lose a lot."

"But the problem is that the young man's chess skills are really great." The passer-by smiled bitterly and said, "with such a strong chess skill, of course, I am confident that I won't lose money."

While Su Cheng was chatting with the passer-by, the middle-aged man of the two group shouted again and again:

"Play chess! Does anyone dare to challenge me?! As long as you deliver 200 British francs, you can get a chance to challenge. If you win, you can take any of these gifts with a price far exceeding 200 British francs! Does anyone dare to challenge me? "

In the circle around the two people, look at me and I look at you, but no one dares to go up.

——Because the people around have basically seen how powerful the young man's chess skills are, they are unwilling to come forward to give money to others.

The middle-aged man couldn't help smiling bitterly when he saw that no one was willing to challenge.

However, middle-aged men have long been used to the sight that no one dares to challenge.

He and the young man have been traveling around together for a long time. Everywhere they go, they will set up stalls and challenge chess like they are now.

As a result, almost every time, it will be like this - the challengers will be turned upside down, and finally no one dares to challenge.

It seems that no one here dares to challenge. We have to change places... The middle-aged man said so secretly in his heart.

At this time, Carol pulled Su Cheng's sleeve.

"Cheng, let's go."

Carol, satisfied with her inner curiosity, seemed to want to go somewhere else.

"Well, let's go."

Su Cheng, who was not interested in the challenge of military chess, readily responded to Carol.

However, just as Su Cheng turned and left, he caught a glimpse of a small, white thing in the pile of gifts at the young man's feet.

This small, white thing attracted Su Cheng's attention and made Su Cheng stop.

After finding Su Cheng motionless, Carol asked suspiciously:

"Cheng, what's the matter?"

Su Cheng pondered for a moment, turned his head, smiled faintly, and then said:

"Carol, I found one thing I particularly wanted in that pile of gifts."

After saying that, Su Cheng turned around, smiled and said to Carol in a plain tone:

"Wait for me a little. I'll be back soon."

Then Su Cheng walked towards the open space surrounded by the crowd... Oh, no, it should be said that he walked towards the chair opposite the young man waiting for the challenger.

"Oh! There are challengers!! Let's welcome the challenger! "

The middle-aged man shouted with joy before and after seeing Su chengshang.

With the loud voice of the middle-aged man and Su Cheng's coming forward, the circle around the periphery immediately became noisy.

Everyone is talking about Su Cheng who came forward to challenge.

"Look, there's a challenger at last. There's a good play. "

"Hey, this man must have come forward to send money."

"Yes, it seems that this two person combination came to acarrea a few days ago. The young man doesn't seem to have lost these days."

"Really? Never lost a game? "

"It seems so. There are dozens of challengers in the past few days. No one can beat the young man."

"Too strong! The young man. "

"Eh? But I heard that the pair seemed to have lost last night. "

"Failed? Who is so powerful that he can beat the young man? "

"I don't know the details. Anyway, I just heard that last night, the young man lost to a foreigner..."

……

Su Cheng walked slowly to the other side of the wooden table where military chess was placed, and then sat down.

The young man sitting opposite Su Cheng, seeing the faint smile on Su Cheng's face, turned his mouth and said:

"Look at you, you seem very confident. Why? Are you very good at chess? "

"It's hard to say. But - it should be better than you. "

After that, Su Cheng took out two 100 yuan yinglang bills from his wallet and put them into a porcelain bowl next to the chessboard, which had been stuffed with many 100 yuan bills.

"... you have a big voice, you guy."

After that, the corners of the young man's mouth pulled and showed a sneer.
