The Yinzhou Municipal Party Committee Courtyard is located in the south corner of the city. During the Puppet Manchukuo period, it was a park. During the Civil War, no one cleaned it up and turned into a garbage dump. After the liberation, Li Hu, the mayor of Yinzhou, who later governor of Beihai Province, felt that it was a pity that such a large area was wasted, so he led all the government personnel and his family to work hard for more than ten days, and cleaned up the mountains of garbage and transformed it into the current Yinzhou Municipal Government.

It was midsummer, and the lotus flowers in the pond were in full bloom. The fragrance of flowers mixed with water vapor came over, making people feel comfortable all over. Even the heat was gone. In the auditorium not far from the pond, the high arch dome was magnificent, with a typical Baroque style. The first Yingang Academy Cup (and the individual competition of the municipal government Go team) was held here.

In the auditorium, forty tables were neatly placed. Ma pulled Zhang Yan into a corner and gave Zhang Yan a tip to his opponent. "Look, the one in front was wearing black clothes and a big beard. The chess is very powerful, called Wang Jiahai. Although she looks like she is over forty years, she is actually very tender after graduation, but the chess is very fierce. I played several games with him before, but I almost played him. If you face him, stretch the front line and fight a protracted battle, he will naturally reveal his flaws."

"Can you ask, which department is Wang Jiahai from?" Zhang Yan's eyes became sharp, and the focus was aimed at his prospective girlfriend, Liu Mingjie. There were too many people here, so you can ignore anything else. Your girlfriend must be optimistic about it, so don't give bad people an opportunity to take advantage of it.

"Whether from the Human Resources Department, do you want to let go of the water if you ask me what you do?"

"Nothing, go ahead!"

"I saw that person wearing a jacket. Yes, it was the young man wearing glasses named Wang Sihai, who was also very powerful. I have never been to him. I heard that this person is very resilience and has no head for the exam. If there is any problem with his opponent, he will not be able to escape his eyes, but I think you probably won't touch it."

"What if I run into it?"

"Well, I've all planned it." Ma took out a cup and a small bag of coffee by himself. "I can definitely get him done by staying up late!"

"Which department is from Wang Sihai?"

"Which department in the city's industrial and commercial industry has anything to do with chess?"

"Clang!"

"I saw that person wearing a baseball cap and his eyebrows were very light."

"Yeah, is it also called Wang Jihai?"

"You know this. His name is Wang Jiehai. It's a pity that he likes robbing and is very confused. There are many times when the mid-game is very bad, but when the finale is over, he will win a little by one or two goals, and this person is quite difficult to deal with."

"Is this person a tax?" Zhang Yan frowned. When he saw this guy named Wang Jiehai approaching Liu Mingjie, he looked like a toad that wanted to eat the meat of a celestial flesh. Zhang Yan wanted to punch him. Fortunately, Liu Mingjie just answered a few words and turned around and walked towards him. Zhang Yan felt a lot more uncomfortable.

“…………How did you guess it?”

"It was written on the sign on the chest, the tax bureau representative team."

"囧"

"Well, let's not talk about this anymore. Director Ma, is there anything else from Wang or Hai? Let's introduce it later. I'm a little dizzy now." Zhang Yan felt that there are a lot of people on the court now, so he should end this boring conversation immediately, return to his girlfriend as soon as possible, and be a qualified flower protector.

"No, you can play well, I'll leave in advance?" Ma Zixing said and left. Zhang Yan was stunned and trotted all the way. "Director Ma, where are you going? Where are you here?"

Ma Zizhe patted Zhang Yan on the shoulder and whispered: "I can't participate in this competition anymore. I just received a notice that I was going to study at the Provincial Party School. After dealing with your affairs, I have to go to the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department to complete the procedures immediately. The Go competition is well played and strive to get the first one. The prize is 200 yuan."

"I understand, Director Ma, wait a moment, there is something else I haven't said?" Zhang Yan thought of another thing. This matter is too important. It can even determine the level of his performance in the next few days and must be solved immediately.

"What's the matter!"

"You haven't paid for the meal these days?"

This time it was Ma Zixing's turn to be stunned. Why is this kid so so smart? He even started to plot against himself in the money for food. He took out a stack of meal tickets from his pocket and handed them to Zhang Yan. "Save some money, even your little girlfriend has the share. If you can't get the first place, see how I deal with you."

Back at the auditorium, Liu Mingjie was standing by the door waiting for Zhang Yan. Zhang Yan proudly showed her the meal tickets "fifty yuan. These days we have all gone to the cafeteria. We ordered two good dishes, and we ate white and fat..."

"Go to you, think I'm a pig." Liu Mingjie pushed Zhang Yan angrily, but her face was smiling so hard that she couldn't tell the look of anger. Seeing that the time was coming, Liu Mingjie was a little nervous: "Sit down quickly, otherwise the referee would lose points."

Zhang Yan laughed, grabbed Liu Mingjie's hand, and whispered: "Sit next to me and sweep me into a formation!"

Liu Mingjie nodded and walked to the position with Zhang Yan. Zhang Yan's opponent was an uncle in his forties with sharp and harsh eyes. Seeing Zhang Yan coming, he stretched out his hand to grab a large hand from the chess box and asked Zhang Yan to guess first. Zhang Yan was not polite, so he picked up a piece and put it on the chess board. The middle-aged man put the piece down and counted it, and thirty-one pieces. Fortunately, this man had such a big hand, Zhang Yan took the black first.

Zhang Yan didn't say much, put the white pieces one by one, put them in the chess box, and finally put them away his black pieces. The middle-aged man said "huh" and looked at Zhang Yan's eyes again, and his eyes were a little wrong, and he stretched out his hand to make a call. Zhang Yan smiled habitually, took a deep breath, and the fixed hand tendons flashed like flowing water, slowly exhaling this breath. Zhang Yan felt that his momentum had reached the highest point, and he picked up a black piece and hit it heavily on Tianyuan's position.

A trace of anger flashed in the big man's eyes. This kid's arrogant method, "golden horns, silver edges, grass belly" is the rule of Go. Tianyuan sounds nice to say, but in fact it is the navel of the grass belly. It is a place where garbage can no longer be garbage. This kid looks quite polite, why do he play chess so badly?

With anger in his stomach, the big man's chess was scared a little fierce and he frequently made unreasonable moves. Zhang Yan was calm, and his original level was more than a little better than the big man. After reaching the middle game, the big man's white chess was too deep and was stabbed by Zhang Yan, and the attack was terrible. Although he survived in the end, Zhang Yan's tail of more than twenty pieces was swallowed by Zhang Yan, and the game was defeated.

"A good move for the little brother!" After the big man lost, he reached out his big hand like a palm fan and grabbed Zhang Yan. Then he signed his name on the winner and loser and handed it to Zhang Yan. "If you have time in the future, you can go to the mechanical bureau to find me."

Zhang Yan lowered his head and looked at the name on the list. "Wang Tiehan" said politely, "This is fine. I will go to find you when I have time. Don't leave me aside then." After saying that, he said to Liu Mingjie, I went to the referee table to hand over the results and walked towards the referee table. When Zhang Yan came back, he saw a man in a black suit standing beside Liu Mingjie. Regardless of Liu Mingjie's cold eyes, he showed great attentiveness there, and his eyebrows were particularly light, which was Wang Jiehai.

Zhang Yan got angry at once and squeezed over from behind Wang Jiehai. His shoulders "accidentally" hit Wang Jiehai, knocking Wang Jiehai so hard that he couldn't stand it. He stumbled back a few steps before he stood firm. Zhang Yan ignored him and asked Liu Mingjie directly: "What is this kid telling you, with a treacherous look on his face!"

Liu Mingjie's face suddenly thawed: "He asked me if I like playing Go, and I said I like it, and then he said he played Go well and could teach me alone. This person is so rude!"

"Hey, why are you walking? Don't you have eyes?" Seeing Zhang Yan and Liu Mingjie's intimate appearance, Wang Jiehai was almost crazy. As soon as he said this, the auditorium suddenly became quiet. Most people in the lobby looked at him in surprise. Playing Go was a priority to be calm. On such an important occasion, it was very inappropriate to say such words. Wang Jiehai was so furious that everyone was watching, and he didn't dare to speak anymore. He lost a look that wanted you to look good and left in shame.

In the next game, Zhang Yan played the game smoothly. In the middle game, he had already killed his opponent's corpses everywhere. Zhang Yan originally wanted to end the battle immediately so that he could get some breath. When he was about to kill the dragon, he saw that his opponent's face was pale and felt a little reluctant. He deliberately let a big dragon run away from his opponent, and then he died of a corner in the back hand, and finally won by a small victory with a three and a half eyes.

The Academy Cup Go team individual competition is three games a day, two games in the morning and one game in the afternoon. After winning this game, Zhang Yan finished playing the chess in the morning. He stood up and looked at Liu Mingjie apologetically: "I'm sorry, let you sit with me!"

Liu Mingjie deliberately put on a stern face: "Well, then I'll punish you for going shopping for three days after the game is over."

The two of them walked out of the auditorium talking and laughing. In a corner of the auditorium, Wang Jiehai looked at Zhang Yan with a gloomy face, muttering words: "Zhang Yan, wait until we meet, let you know how powerful this young master is!"
