Chapter 014: People are warm in a foreign land
Foreigners eat Chinese food, even if they eat a buffet, the biggest problem is that they don't know how to use chopsticks. These guys were obviously also very curious about using chopsticks, and when they saw Yang Fan skillfully using chopsticks to eat, their eyes widened one by one, as if they were watching someone perform a magic trick.
"It's just amazing. ”
"It's nothing, for us Chinese, using chopsticks is the most basic life skill. Yang Fan smiled and said, "Let me tell you a joke, the most common scene that surprises Westerners when they see Chinese people eating with chopsticks is when they see Chinese eating with chopsticks, and then exclaim, 'Oh my God, this is amazing.'" I'm right. ”
"That's right. ”
"In my opinion, it's really amazing. ”
"Well, do you know what we Chinese are most surprised when we see Westerners, especially the British?"
"Blue eyes?"
"White skin?"
"Big nose?"
"Blonde hair. ”
"Someone has brown hair. ”
"No!no!no!" Yang Fan vetoed these answers, and he said with a smile, "We are most surprised, oh my God, you guys, you can actually speak such fluent English! ”
"Uh-hahahaha. ”
"Hahaha. ”
"God, I'm laughing to death. ”
"I'm starting to like this teammate of ours a little bit now. James Troisy said to Reeves Marr.
"I've said a long time ago that if you know Yang, you'll love to be friends with him too. Reeves Marr was happy to hear James Troisi say that.
Even though the buffet has changed and improved its taste and authentic Chinese food, it still makes everyone feel delicious.
Delicious Chinese food, magical chopsticks. Everyone is a teammate and a peer, and getting together to eat and drink is the easiest way to get closer to each other. At this dinner, everyone had a good time.
Yang Fan calculated his purse in his heart, after this meal, he became more and more strapped for money, but this investment is worth it, inviting teammates to eat and contact feelings, this is not his temporary intention, but Yang Fan's state has been too bad recently, and he has no mood to invite everyone to eat, and he is unwilling to eat and drink when he is 'down', and he is not willing to be pointed at. (good-looking novel) in today's training class, he scored a hat trick, Yang Fan was in a good mood, so he invited everyone to dinner. To put it mildly, if it weren't for Yang Fan's appearance today, which made everyone 'impressed', he said that he wanted to treat him, it is estimated that few people would take care of him. Treat him in such a situation, and he will gain gradual respect and recognition. To win the respect of others, in the final analysis, it depends on strength.
Seeing his teammates eating and drinking happily, Yang Fan knew that the purpose of this meal had basically been achieved.
As the saying goes, eat people with soft mouths, take people with soft hands, invite them to have a meal, enhance the relationship between themselves and everyone, to put it mildly, at least in the game, when Yang Fan raised his hand to ask his teammates for the ball, everyone will not turn a blind eye.
The wine table is indeed a place that can enhance relationships, and even Andy Carroll, who has always been a bit 'tsundere', took the initiative to drink and clink glasses with Yang Fan.
"I'll tell you, Yang, I really didn't look down on you before, you played too badly, but today, today, you impressed me, I announced, you are now qualified to partner with me. Andy Carroll drank and yelled.
This is very unpleasant, but Yang Fan is not angry, his previous state and appearance are really bad, and he is looked down upon, this is natural, if he doesn't even dare to admit this, what is the difference between him and an ostrich who has no interest. The important thing is that I have won everyone's initial respect and recognition for today's performance. With Andy Carroll's current status and quality in the youth team, there is nothing wrong with saying that.
To put it bluntly, it is still strength to speak, if Yang Fan proves to everyone that his strength and appearance are better than Andy Carroll in the future, he can naturally pat Andy Carroll on the shoulder and say, 'Boy, you are qualified to partner with me'.
These people were so drunk that they couldn't drive home by themselves.
The restaurant helped them call five taxis to take these Newcastle football 'hopes for the future' home.
"Goodbye, Mark. Yang Fan stuffed the drunken Mark Bateman into the taxi, told the driver to send the guys home, and finally arranged everyone, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Didn't drink too much, did you?" Li Hengfu handed Yang Fan a glass of water.
"Nope. Yang Fan took the water glass, drank it all, and wiped his mouth, "The amount of alcohol I drink, Uncle Li, you don't know." ”
Li Hengfu patted Yang Fan's shoulder hard, "Those who are drunk are drunkards, and those who drown are water-savvy." ”
At this point, the restaurant is closing.
"Hey, Uncle Li, you didn't call a taxi for me, how can I go back?" Yang Fan screamed.
"Stinky boy, give me back the dress, don't tell me that you didn't hear me let Da Mao tidy up the room. Li Hengfu scolded.
"Hey, hey. Yang Fan scratched his head embarrassedly, "Da Mao is?"
"It's Chen Rui, the kid you just met. Not as clever as you. ”
"Hey, hey. ”
"Don't think you're young and don't pay attention. How many jobs are you working now?"
"One copy. Yang Fan saw Li Hengfu's suspicious eyes and raised a hand, "Really, I swear to Our Lady that I will do a job." You know, I'm one of the top stars in Newcastle's youth team now, and I'm usually very nervous in training, so I don't have time to work, and besides, I want to be the future star of Newcastle."
"Blow, you blow. Be careful to blow the cowhide out. Li Hengfu scolded with a smile, "Anyway, if I know that you are working several jobs at the same time, see if I don't clean you up." ”
"Uncle Li, you care about me so much, won't it" Yang Fan smiled very obscenely, "If you want to say, Weiwei is quite beautiful." ”
"Bastard boy. Underweight the beating, right? I warn you, don't beat our Vivi's idea, our Vivi"
"I know, I know, your Weiwei won't take a fancy to a poor boy like me. Yang Fan's mind remembered the beautiful figure, shook his head, and shook off the shadow.
"Hmph, it's good to know"
Yang Fan yawned, "Hey, I'm sleepy, go to sleep, Uncle Li, you go to bed early, old arms and legs, don't go to the massage parlor haha, I won't say it, sleep, sleep." ”
Watching Yang Fan shouting and jumping to the small room in the backyard to rest, Li Hengfu laughed. He really likes this young man, if it weren't for this kid's 'not doing his job' and going to play football, if he worked in a restaurant with peace of mind, Li Hengfu might have the idea of recruiting Yang Fan as a son-in-law, his baby daughter, he had to watch by his side, so he didn't have to worry about being bullied.
Yang Fan was lying on the bed in a small room in a restaurant.
"Congratulations, you've completed the 'Lesson Robert. Cavanna's temporary side quest. A cold voice suddenly sounded.
This is naturally the voice of the system Martin.
Yang Fan hurriedly entered the system to look, and when he saw what was said on it, he was angry, "In view of the fact that the system activation task has not yet been completed, the experience rewards of this temporary side quest will be accumulated and distributed to the host at that time." ”
I was going to find out what this experience point is all about and how to use it, but I didn't expect the system to be so impersonal.
Yang Fan slandered the system a few words in his heart, and he could only give up, anyway, when he completed the system activation task of 'conquering Chairman Shepard', these experience points would belong to him, it was his, and he couldn't run away.
"Congratulations, winning the favor of some of your teammates. Martin's voice rang out again.
"Oh?" Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "This, is also a certain task?"
"It's not. Martin said coldly, "This analysis is just a friendly reminder, does it need to be canceled?"
"No, I don't. It's good to keep it. Yang Fan hurriedly said, lest he was a little slower, and this cold system would cancel this rather 'humane' service.
The next morning, in front of the bar.
"Uncle Li, this fraction will be erased. Yang Fan's bitter expression.
"No, I can't. Li Hengfu was categorical, his eyes were red, "5 pounds per person, and you will be given a seven-fold discount in the end, Xiao Yang Fan, you are robbing, and you have to wipe the change, dreaming." ”
"Okay, okay, just forget it if you don't erase the change, as for the bad behavior?"
Looking at the colorful tickets, from his own hands to Li Hengfu's hands, Yang Fan's flesh hurt, goodbye, dear pound.
Yang Fan and Li Hengfu said goodbye and walked about a hundred meters away, this kid took out a plastic bag like a trick, and raised it towards Li Hengfu, "Uncle Li, I took these bottles of spicy vegetables and red oil radishes, hahaha." ”
"Stinky boy, stinky boy, every time you have to follow Lao Tzu's next meal. Li Hengfu jumped to his feet, looking very angry.
"Hahaha. Yang Fan laughed and ran away.
Chen Rui, who came in from the door with a discount yawn, saw this scene and asked his boss in surprise, "Boss, didn't you let me put those pickles at the door of the small room?"
"As far as you know. Li Hengfu glared at Chen Rui and sighed, "It's not easy to be a young man and be alone outside." ”
After a while, Chen Rui came running again, shouting, "Boss, boss, shop, store"
"The shop is all cleaned? I know, what are you talking about? Li Hengfu looked at the road at the door, and couldn't see the back of the young man anymore, "This bastard boy" Li Hengfu wiped the corners of his eyes, "Come on"
"Boss, are you crying?" Chen Rui shouted in fuss.
"Fuck off, get to work, be careful I deduct your winnings. Li Hengfu glared, "Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is blinded by the wind and sand." ”
At this time, already sitting on the bus, Yang Fan touched the pickle bottle in the plastic bag and wiped the corners of his eyes.
This is a play, a beautiful play, it always happens once a month, and they both know this old-fashioned scene, but they all try their best to perform, the old ones avoid hurting the proud hearts of the young ones, and the young ones try their best to let their wallets deflated as much as they can allow, or change their ways and find ways to help the old ones.
This winter in Newcastle has never been colder, but his heart is warm.
The morning sun shone through the car window and threw it on him, reflecting the young man's resolute eyes, and the smile on the corner of his mouth.
