The fatty listening to the story in the second-floor box stood up when he heard this.

He said to Tianzhen excitedly: "Tianzhen, did you hear that? He actually said that the seven games won were played by Ninth Master Xie alone!"

"Does Ninth Master Xie have such great ability to play seven games of chess at the same time?"

Wu Tianzhen had always been smart, and after only a little thought, he understood the key.

He said slowly: "So, that's why Mr. Zhang said that this chess match was Ninth Master Xie setting the game from beginning to end."

"In reality, Ninth Master Xie's chess skill should be below that Yangcheng chess saint."

"If he fought the chess saint head-on, Ninth Master Xie would definitely lose!"

"So, he used this method to let seven chess players restrain most of the chess saint's energy."

"And he, then attacked the chess saint with all his might; Ninth Master Xie had no worries, and the chess saint was restrained by that game of 'subject chess,' and in the end, Ninth Master Xie was able to win all seven games!"

"This is no longer playing chess; it's a real battle of wits!"

The fatty was dumbfounded after listening!

He never expected that it was just a simple game of chess.

It could actually be played out in such a fancy way by this group of people from the Laojiu Sect!

At this time, Zhang Lin also started to explain to the audience.

The content of the explanation was much the same as what Wu Tianzhen said.

It's just that Zhang Lin added: "Setting the game is Ninth Master Xie's strength; from this chess match, we can also see Ninth Master Xie's steady personality!"

"This is also why a chess match could become one of the few legendary anecdotes in Ninth Master Xie's life."

At this moment, the audience below was convinced by Ninth Master Xie!

They all marveled at Ninth Master Xie's genius game-setting!

Such a person, no wonder he is one of the Laojiu Sect.

And such a person is only ranked at the end of the Lower Three Sects!

Then what kind of stunning talents are the heads of the other families?

Everyone couldn't wait to hear the stories of the beauty and the calculator.

At this time, in the box on the second floor, Old Lady Huo's expression was somewhat uncertain.

Huo Hongxiu saw her like this and asked curiously: "Grandma, what's wrong with you?"

"Is there something wrong with Ninth Master Xie's chess game that Mr. Zhang talked about?"

Old Lady Huo said seriously: "Of course it's wrong, very wrong!"

"Hongxiu, do you know that what this Zhang guy said before, the excuse Ninth Master Xie told outsiders, was exactly what Little Xie Jiu told us back then!"

"Even I really thought Little Xie Jiu played that game of 'subject chess'."

"I didn't expect there to be such a big reversal!"

Huo Hongxiu was also surprised after hearing this.

What Zhang Lin said was actually a secret that even her grandmother didn't know!

Huo Hongxiu said uncertainly: "Grandma, could it be that Mr. Zhang is talking nonsense?"

"At that time, the one who played 'subject chess' was Ninth Master Xie!"

"And these later things were all fabricated by this storyteller?"

Old Lady Huo shook her head after hearing this.

"No, you don't understand Little Xie Jiu!"

"It is precisely the hidden details that this storyteller added, which even I didn't know."

"That makes the temperament of this chess match completely consistent with Little Xie Jiu's conduct!"

Seeing that Huo Hongxiu still didn't quite understand.

Old Lady Huo explained again: "Think about the personality of Little Xie Jiu that this Zhang guy talked about before."

"Steady, ten steps ahead, never offending people for no reason."

"Therefore, even if it was a fair chess match, letting the chess saint win one and lose seven."

"He would never reveal the key to his game-setting to others."

"According to his previous excuse to the outside world, that Yangcheng chess saint would only think that he was dragged down by the 'subject chess,' so the other seven games were lost."

"And he wouldn't think his chess skill wasn't enough, so he wouldn't cause any more trouble."

"The warlord of old Changsha also dampened the chess saint's prestige and was very satisfied."

"In this way, both the inside and the face were saved, and everyone was happy!"

"Tell me, is this the method Ninth Master Xie should have?"

Hearing Old Lady Huo's explanation, Huo Hongxiu suddenly realized.

The look in her eyes when she looked at Zhang Lin again changed!

Because Zhang Lin's storytelling not only conquered the listeners below.

It even convinced her grandmother!

Clearly, it was a secret of the Xie family that even her grandmother didn't know, yet she believed it deeply!

Does this Zhang Lin have some magic?

……

Zhang Lin finished telling Ninth Master Xie's legendary anecdote, making the audience below feel very satisfied.

Although he wasn't talking about the Laojiu Sect's tomb-raiding, these stories could allow the audience to quickly understand what kind of families the Laojiu Sect were.

Just the story of the chess master fighting the Yangcheng chess saint today was worth the ticket price!

The next step was to wait for Zhang Lin to continue telling the stories of the beauty and the calculator.

Huo Hongxiu in the box on the second floor looked at Zhang Lin with anticipation.

She thought this time Zhang Lin would talk about Old Lady Huo's affairs.

Unexpectedly, after Zhang Lin drank a few cups of tea and rested for a while.

He said: "After finishing talking about the chess master Ninth Master Xie, you viewers probably also know what kind of people the Laojiu Sect are."

"Big families that started in turbulent years, not to mention that every child in the family can become a talent."

"But there are always a few who have unique skills!"

"And what I want to talk about next, the 'Strange Calculation of Eight' Qi Tiezui of the Lower Three Sects, is very different from ordinary big families."

"Family-style management inevitably requires expansion; in old words, it is managing the market."

"And the Qi family has only had one market since its inception!"

"As everyone knows, a market is too small to withstand turmoil and is easily eliminated."

"But this market of the Qi family has been doing business for generations, yet it has been booming and never declined!"

"The reason for this is all because of the word 'accurate'!"

"How accurate is the Qi family's 'Strange Calculation of Eight'?"

"It can be said to be, miraculous!"
