Rebirth of the Nine-Three Era

The Jiangming City Go Competition is coming to an end.

The top twenty winners have been finally decided.

In order to determine the ranking, Yin Yuan will also participate in the top ten competition.

A points system is adopted, five points are awarded for winning a game, and the rankings are based on the total points.

Opponents are chosen by drawing lots.

Yin Yuan unexpectedly picked Pan Nianzu in the first set.

"It seems like you can't get your first five points."

All the players knew that Yin Yuan was the strongest at chess, and they would give him points if they met him.

Pan Nianzu said: "I rarely play chess with you anymore. I wonder if your chess skills have improved compared to before?"

Yin Yuan said: "There must be progress, just like the level of painting, it is not what it used to be."

Pan Nianzu became more confident based on his playing games with others during this period.

He felt there was still hope of reaching the top ten.

The two began to play chess.

Pan Nianzu made the first move with black, and he played steadily at first, fighting in the four corners without any loss.

The chess path extension is also well done.

The first hundred chess pieces were played with great vigor, and even He Jian, who was watching the chess from the side, couldn't help but look at Pan Nianzu with admiration.

"Being able to go down to a hundred eyes away from Xiao Yin without showing signs of defeat, Xiao Pan is considered to be quite good compared to Jiang Ming."

Yin Yuan said: "I played too conservatively at the beginning, which tied my hands and feet. You should have a wider vision in this game and don't worry about temporary gains and losses."

There are some holes in some chess moves, but they can still be made up for in the subsequent games.

Yin Yuan explained to him, which made Pan Nianzu feel that he benefited a lot.

"If you give me more guidance in normal times, I believe my chess skills will improve greatly."

He Jian now knew that they were brother-in-law and uncle-in-law.

In the second round, I got to play against Cheng Bin.

"Brother Cheng, please be merciful!" Yin Yuan bowed to him and said.

"Haha, I will try my best. If I can defeat you in front of the master, the master will also be proud of his face." Cheng Bin really wanted to win against him, but he also knew that it was impossible. of.

He Jian said: "If you can do it within a hundred eyes without showing signs of defeat, you are considered to be at a good level. Yesterday, I also reviewed Ma Xiaochun's last performance against Xiao Ninggan in the Hong Kong Celebrity Go Tournament. That game of Go has so many changes and every step is mysterious. No wonder it can be called the No. 1 Go game. It has more changes than Marshal Nie’s previous games.”

He analyzed Yin Yuan's chess: "In terms of changes, your chess seems to be more flexible than Ma Xiaochun's, but his defense is flawless."

Yin Yuan also said: "Yes, last time I played a game with him, in the end he took advantage of a few mistakes I made to turn defeat into victory. At the beginning, I forced him to defend everywhere. They are all stuck in the long exam.”

Cheng Bin plays black first.

He Jian was still nearby giving appropriate guidance.

According to the rules of the competition, others are not allowed to give pointers.

The two chess players were not allowed to talk aloud.

So Yin Yuan deliberately chose a chess table outside, and it didn't matter if the onlookers gave him pointers.

If the real level is different, a hundred cobblers may not be able to stand up to one Zhuge Liang.

Cheng Bin discussed with He Jian for a long time when deciding on several key positions.

Zhang Wensheng and Yuan Heping were also present and participated in the discussion.

Yin Yuan's next step will not exceed the fixed time, but Cheng Bin's next step will have to be discussed with several people for half a day, and the time has already exceeded.

This time Professor Zhao Tinghao from Wuyi University also signed up to participate.

Yang Jian also said: "I remember that Professor Zhao participated in the first two friendly matches and got second place. He was the standard bearer of our Jiangming chess community at that time. Professor Yang refused to participate for some reason at the beginning of the third round. Unexpectedly, this year Another veteran takes action."

Zhao Tinghao said: "Brother, I told you at that time, what's the point of always being the second best player for thousands of years? Liu Guining is a national player. As long as he is in Xiangshan City, there is no way for us to beat them in Go. We will see them take away the prize every year. Champion, it feels so bad. It’s different now, Comrade Xiao Yin takes us, not to mention competing against the chess circles in Xiangshan City, even against the chess circles in Beijing and Shanghai, we have the ability to challenge them."

At this time, he was concentrating on playing with the chess players.

After Yin Yuan defeated Cheng Bin, he also defeated several other players in succession, and was drawn to play against Zhao Tinghao in the afternoon.

Zhao Tinghao's chess skills are indeed higher than others, but compared with Yin Yuan, he is still a little behind.

Then I played a few games with a few other people.

He was undefeated on day one.

The unbeaten record continued the next day as well.

What the chess players talk about the most is how much they lost when they played against Master Yin, and whether they slayed the dragon for him.

In the end, he was naturally No. 1, Zhao Tinghao was No. 2, and another named Huang Qiusheng came third.

This young man is a carpenter in a furniture factory. He used to work at the Dachong Town Furniture Factory and represented Xiangshan City in friendly matches in previous years and won No. 3.

Cheng Bin finished fourth and Pan Nianzu finished fifth.

The union awarded bonuses to the top ten players.

Yin Yuan won the first prize of 5 yuan.

Because he was afraid that the sound of his mobile phone would affect the game while playing chess, Yin Yuan kept his mobile phone on silent for two days.

At noon and evening, I saw some phone calls but didn't answer them and called them again.

But when he saw Huang Qian's phone call, he didn't bother to answer him. However, the guy still kept calling, and he also called during the lunch break the next day.

He picked it up anyway.

"Hello, Mr. Yin, you finally answered my call. I want to buy another ten tons of Yuehuang wood from you. Is there still any stock?"

Yin Yuan told him: "There is no goods now, let's wait for the next batch of goods?"

"Ah, how could there be no goods so soon? After I pulled 10 tons, wouldn't there be 20 tons left?"

Yin Yuan smiled and said: "Boss Huang, if you are the only one who wants my wood, I don't have to do this business."

Huang Qian also asked him: "When is the next batch of goods expected to arrive?"

Yin Yuan said: "I'm not sure, it should be ten or eight days later, right?"

"Please let me know in advance when the goods arrive."

Yin Yuan agreed with him on the surface, but he had lost trust in him in his heart.

Within a few days, furniture factory owners would call him and ask if he had any new wood.

He knew that the wood used most in furniture factories was Siamese rosewood, commonly known as old redwood, and black rosewood.

Yin Yuan left their phone numbers and promised to call them as soon as possible if there was new timber coming in.

He didn't know why so many bosses contacted him at first. He asked one of the bosses and found out that it was Huang Shaoqi who called them.

On this day, I unexpectedly received a call from Dong Huaping, chairman of the foreign trade company.

"Hello, Mr. Dong, why did you think of calling me today?"

Dong Huaping said: "I later found out that you were the one who captured the murderer, so I want to say thank you. The murderer received the punishment he deserved today. Alas, my son who failed to live up to expectations did not learn anything while he was alive. Having no skills gives me a headache, but after all, there is hope. If someone hurts me now, there will be no hope in the future..."

Of course Yin Yuan understood his feelings, but what could he say.

He still felt guilty for him in his heart.

He deliberately took the topic elsewhere.

"Mr. Dong, does your foreign trade company import wood? I am now specializing in purchasing some precious wood, such as Vietnamese huanghuali, honghuamu, and rosewood. I have an acquaintance in Vietnam, but I heard that African rosewood is cheaper, so I also There are Indian rose pears and Laos rose pears that are not too expensive. I also want to purchase some of the most expensive Hainan huanghua pears. Is there any purchasing channel?"

Dong Huaping said: "Timber import is also a major business of our company. For specific matters, please contact my cousin Dong Huajun. I will ask him to contact you later. In China, whether it is Hainan Huanghuali, small-leaf red sandalwood, rosewood, chicken wings Wood, ebony, ebony, mahogany, nanmu, our company has collection points in every province, and we can get you any wood you want."

He also said to Yin Yuan: "Give me your bank account number, and I will transfer 5 yuan to you as a reward for capturing the murderer and avenging my son."

Yin Yuan said resolutely: "No, that bastard also wanted to harm me, so I fought with him desperately. On the way to Jiangming, he wanted to harm my girlfriend, and I accumulated hatred with him at that time. Later I went At Jiangnan Glass Craft Factory, he brought people to make trouble, called Lao Yan and arrested them. At that time, the guy was sentenced to several years. This time, he escaped from prison and came out to take revenge after hearing that his uncle was dead. He killed other people. Now, he is going to kill me and then go back to Jiangming to harm the Yan family and his two sons."

"If we don't get rid of this rotten person, maybe many people will be harmed by him."

He refused to ask for the money from Dong Huaping no matter what.

Dong Huaping thought: It doesn't matter if you don't accept it. You don't want to do business with my company. I just ask Huajun to give you a preferential price.

He told his cousin about it.

Dong Huajun contacted Yin Yuan in time.

"Hello, Mr. Yin, my brother told me that you want to buy timber. What kind of timber do you want to buy?"

Yin Yuan said: "Is Hainan Huanghuali available?"

Dong Huajun affirmed: "It is available. The price of this century-old wood has increased a lot in the past few years. Last year it was only [-] cubic meters, and this year it has risen to [-] cubic meters. How many cubic meters do you want?"

Yin Yuan said: "First give me ten cubic meters of material from a century-old tree."

Dong Huajun said: "Okay, I will notify the purchasing points in Qiong Province to collect the goods. It is estimated that century-old trees have to be harvested in deep mountains and old forests. However, it is best to send a dedicated person from your company to do this to identify the age of the trees."

Yin Yuan said: "I will go to Sanya, Qiong Province next week to participate in an exchange symposium for young and middle-aged painters. I will appraise it myself then."

Dong Huajun said: "That's the best. In fact, they have a strange phenomenon there. Fine materials are more difficult to find because medicinal materials factories will buy them. Locals don't want to find aniseed materials, but there are still more stocks."

Yin Yuan asked him the prices of some other woods.

Vietnamese huanghuali costs [-] per ton, Laos rosewood [-] per ton, black rosewood [-], Burma [-], African ebony [-]...

It costs [-] per ton to be delivered to the port by Vietnamese Nguyen Van Bin, but the shipping fee for six tons is [-], which is equivalent to [-] for one ton.

Yin Yuan asked him: "Are the above prices inclusive of delivery? Or are the freight charges extra?"

Dong Huajun said: "Freight charges are extra. Our company will hire a truck to deliver the goods to your company. We will bear the risk of road transportation and pay a small deposit in proportion. The rest will be paid on delivery."

Yin Yuan believes that by doing this, although he will bear an extra cost of [-] yuan per cubic meter, it will save trouble and be safe overall.

The cost is also saved a lot.

Relatively speaking, it is more cost-effective.

Yin Yuan asked Dong Huaping to report his company account number to him.

"Tomorrow I will remit a deposit of 10 cubic meters of Hainan Huanghuali to your company, and then you can arrange a delivery point to start receiving the goods."

As soon as he hung up Dong Huajun's call, Huo Buqiang called him and said: "My cousin went to the casino to gamble after getting the payment for the goods last time, and squandered all the money of more than [-] yuan. He may have been there for a while. There is no way to receive the goods.”

In fact, Ruan Wenbin asked him to discuss with Yin Yuan whether he could remit 8 yuan to him as capital first, so that he could transport [-] cubic meters of huanghuali wood to Dongxin Port in a few days.

Huo Buqiang was so angry that he scolded him: "Do you think it's possible? How can Mr. Yin trust you?"

"Aren't you doing something with him? He always believes in you, right?"

Huo Buqiang said: "Don't trick me, okay? I finally made some money. If I push you into the fire pit, I won't be able to climb out for the rest of my life."

So he didn't mention his cousin's idea to Yin Yuan, but just told him that his cousin couldn't transport the wood.

Yin Yuan said: "Forget it if you don't have it. Next Friday, you and I will go to Hainan and I will take you to collect Hainan huanghuali. We have already contacted the foreign trade company and we will identify the age of the trees."

Make Huo Buqiang familiar with this process, and then let him handle this matter alone in the future.

That day he bought a newspaper and a magazine. The newspaper published an article about a particularly serious criminal, Scarface, nicknamed the Big Buffalo. After a public trial in the court, he decided to be taken to the execution ground that day to end his criminal life.

The article describes how this person embarked on a criminal path, the education he received since childhood, and took revenge on society.

Gathered a group of fellow villagers in Jiangming and organized a criminal gang, which spread to the Jiangming area and other places in Guangdong Province.

numerous crimes committed against society.

The magazine is "Lingnan Pictorial", and in front are the works of the top three painters who won the exhibition, with Yin Yuan's "Miner" at the top.

Published on the next few pages is the reporter's exclusive interview with Yin Yuan, and there is also a profile photo of Yin Yuan.

He took a rough look at the manuscript, which had about fifteen thousand words. Hu Kewu told him that the manuscript fee was two thousand yuan for ten thousand words, so he should pay himself 3000 yuan.

On the same day, he received a call from Hu Kewu: "Painter Yin, the royalties of three thousand have been remitted to you. Pay attention to check. I also sent a few sample publications."

The next day he transferred the deposit to the foreign trade company and called Dong Huajun to tell him.

Dong Huajun told Yin Yuan the phone number of the person in charge of timber collection in Qiong Province and asked him to contact him when he arrived in Sanya.

Yin Yuan told his wife that he would go to Sanya for an exchange meeting next week and take Huo Buqiang to buy ten tons of Hainan Huanghuali wood.

This time, I trafficked 15 tons of Vietnamese huanghuali, with a capital of 10,000, and I made a profit of [-]+ in a few days.

The more than 40 yuan he received for winning the prize at the art exhibition turned into nearly 60 yuan. He felt that this business could be done.

Taking a step back and saying that if you bring back ten tons of sea yellow wood, even if it cannot be sold for a while, even if it is stored for several years, the price will continue to rise.

The appreciation in value of buying precious wood is definitely better than doing other businesses.
