Chapter 77 Honesty
It was still early to get back to the hotel, and instead of immediately returning to my room, I knocked on the door of Popov's room.
"Came back so early, didn't go around for a while. Popov was wearing a nightgown, and there were two beautiful blonde beauties sitting in the room, half-breasted, who didn't mind being seen by me, but I didn't know if they were the two Eva called last night.
The Russians were really energetic, and Popov, who was in his early sixties, did not show any fatigue at all.
Looking at Popov's bare black chest hair, I pointed to the two girls: "Do you have time to talk?"
"Of course. Popov took out a stack of bills from his wallet and handed it to the two girls, "Let's go out first, I'll look for you when I have time." Popov's big hand couldn't help but squeeze the full breasts of one of the young girls again, and said with a lewd smile, "We'll have a good time." ”
The two girls, who were obviously also veterans of Fengyue Field, held thick bills, each kissed Popov on the cheek, and said in unison: "Thank you, boss." ”
After getting dressed, the two girls went out with a small bag, and one of them made a kiss gesture to me when the door was closed: "You can also find my handsome guy." ”
"You may be seated. Popov watched the two girls leave with a smile, obviously satisfied with the service of the two girls. He took out two glasses from the wine cabinet, poured a glass of red wine and handed it to me, "Don't look at me I'm old now, but I'm not necessarily worse than you in this area." So far, I don't need to take pills to get these young girls. Popov's face was filled with pride.
"Yes. I took the glass and smelled the smell of hormones in the air.
"You don't believe me?" Popov drained the wine in his hand, "If you're interested, we can stay in the same room tonight." I'm no worse fighting in bed than yours in the ring!"
I shook my head and thanked Popov for his gracious invitation, my mind was not yet open to the point of having a competition in bed.
"You Chinese conservative ideas are really boring. Popov looked a little disappointed at my refusal, "Say, there is something to find me." If I remember correctly, this was the first time you came to me. ”
"I want to know a little bit more about my opponent this time. I took a sip of the wine in my glass, "If you have information, the more detailed the better." ”
"Well, no problem. Popov nodded, "I'm more relieved to see you so attentive." From my point of view, since you can easily defeat Saab the Grizzly Bear, this boxing match should be no problem. ”
"There is no such thing as a sure outcome, I just want to be a little more sure. I stared into Popov's eyes and tapped my knuckles lightly on the table, "I hope we can be honest with each other and show our sincerity." Mutual suspicion at this time is not good for everyone, I think you know what I mean. ”
I mean, Popov looked at me stunned for a moment, and then drank the red wine in the glass again: "Well, I'll admit, I let Eva into your room." But my starting point is to hope that you can relax a little bit and be able to play more perfectly in boxing. You know, I'm still betting heavily on you in this fight. ”
Of course not what I want to know. What I really want to hear is whether I'm going to lose my life if I win a fight, as Eagle said, and I want to hear Popov himself tell me about the risks of the fight. But obviously, Popov is hiding much more from me.
"Hey, that's sad. I thought I was very attractive. I pretended to be relaxed and raised my glass, "It seems that my ordinary face will never become the prince charming in the hearts of girls." ”
Although I had long thought that Popov would become the underground emperor of Yekaterinburg, he would never be as kind as he showed in front of me, but I never imagined that even his daughter could become his tool to win people's hearts. Such a Popov really scares me.
"As long as a man has money, he can call the wind and rain, and it doesn't matter what kind of woman you want. Rest assured, as long as you win this boxing match, you will definitely get a lot of money. Standing up and patting me on the shoulder, "Then you can go where you want to go with the money and do what you want like Archie." ”
I just want to go home and live an ordinary life with my master by my wife and daughter, is it possible?
When happiness slips through your fingers, you know that it is useless to cherish and regret.
"Risk and benefit are always proportional, I want to know what is the risk I am facing?" I asked straight to the point, as I drained the wine from my glass, and asked without being secretive.
"Oh. Popov looked calm, "Have you seen Iger?" After years of experience in the rivers and lakes, Popov immediately figured everything out, with a little banter in his eyes, "What did he say to you?"
"He made me lose this fight. "I don't deny that in the face of this old fox, hiding it will only provoke their ridicule," Three million dollars, a new identity, a new beginning. The promise Eagle gave me. ”
"What a tempting pie. But since you said it to me, you didn't say yes, did you?" Popov sat back on the couch, took a cut cigar from the humidor on the table, and handed it to me, "Tell me what you think, friend." We need to be honest with each other. ”
"You know, I don't like to fake boxing. I lit my cigar and reclined on the couch, "But I don't want to give up my life without even touching the money, as Eagle said, you have to give me some guarantees." ”
Nodding, Popov also lit a cigar: "Don't worry, I will arrange someone to protect you twenty-four hours a day until you return home." With me, you won't have a problem. ”
Popov was sincere, but I didn't believe it at all. A man who can even use his daughter as a tool for money, I don't dare to bet my life on him.
"You misunderstood me. I shook my head, "Since boxing is more risky than we expected, I think we need to revisit our distribution of profits." I think I deserve a return that matches the risk I took, you say?"
"How do you say it's divided?" Popov became cautious about the money, and snuffed out less than half of his cigar in the ashtray.
"I'm going to get three million dollars in commissions first. "Popov told me that they had made a total bet of $20 million, and that if he had won, I would be paid $6 million. And now, I'm going to get half of the pay before the game, "You call this business, and I'll talk to you about business." I take the risk that I need to do that. I don't want to end up with nothing to end up with. ”
"A million. My words were clearly in Popov's expectation, "I put most of my liquidity into this bet and don't have that much cash right now." ”
"Two million. "I'm not a businessman and I don't talk about business. I have only one purpose, no matter what happens, I want to leave a sum of money to my family, "no less." My tone was categorical.
"Good. I'm trying to figure it out. "Obviously, two million is not a difficult thing for Popov, and Popov does not want to disagree with me at this time and affect my emotions. After all, winning the boxing match is the common goal, "I'll put the money on your card tomorrow night at the latest." ”
"Good!" Now that the two sides have agreed, I shook Popov's outstretched hand and like a businessman, "Happy cooperation!"
"You're not going to let me down, are you, mad dog?" Now that everyone has spread out the topic, Popov is most concerned about this multi-million-stakes boxing match.
"I may die, but I will never lose. I raised my fist, "Just take my fist for you." ”
For a fighter, the most important thing is the desire to win. Lao K once said that he never thought he would lose in the ring, his original intention as a fighter has never changed, and he has a strong heart.
What about me? Will I fail? After all these ups and downs, I gradually went from being weak to being strong. What I rely on most is my fists. Now I am standing with Lao K, and I will not be afraid at all. The heart in my chest is getting stronger and stronger like the old K!
My promise reassured Popov, who was pleased with my statement: "I have confidence in you. ”
"Don't let Eva into my room anymore, it will affect my preparation before the race. I took a puff on my cigar, "I want to look back and see the profile of the opponent's fighter this time." ”
"Good. "Popov promised to be very cheerful.
After smoking this cigar, I left Popov's room and went back to my room.
My life is destined to be far from the ordinary and peaceful, and I am destined to cut a bloody path between life and death to survive. Death is kept at an intimate distance, and it seems that if I am not careful, I will die in some corner of this world, somewhere where no one cares. I was also afraid, afraid of death, afraid of leaving with regrets. But I still have to muster up the courage to face this bleak life!
Two million dollars, I think it's enough for Yoo Yuxi to live with my daughter.
I picked up the phone at the hotel and broadcast an international call and called Xiao Yang. I told this friend of mine everything that happened here, hoping that he would help me transfer the money back safely.
After listening to my narration, Xiao Yang was silent for a long time, and I even thought he hung up the phone.
"It's not difficult to transfer money back to China, but I've heard of this general, and it's not a character to mess with. Xiao Yang on the other end of the phone kindly reminded me.
"I'm not a soft persimmon, kneaded at will. "My tone is calm, and if you want to harm me, I will definitely retaliate.
"Well, I'll fly over tomorrow. There are some things that we add up together. ”
Of course, it's best that Xiao Yang can come over. He thinks about problems and handles things more thoroughly than I do.
"Okay, I'll wait for you. "I don't have overseas Chinese affection, in my heart, Xiao Yang has gradually become a brother like Lao Gen and Taozi.
