Chapter 24: Teaching Boxing
Whether he can see through it or not, Lin Songhan can only think about it secretly. Li Yu didn't do anything, and Lin Songhan couldn't check his roots. The two chatted for a while, and Lin Shan had already come back from school, still going into the counter to do her homework. Lin Songhan saw that the time was not early, said hello to Li Yu, and then hurriedly went to open the fire, preparing to receive customers who came to dinner. Li Yu was almost exhausted at this time, so he got up to say goodbye and returned to his residence.
Because he ate a big meal at noon, Li Yu didn't go out to eat again in the evening, but solved the problem with two packets of instant noodles, and then stayed alone in the room to study the pharmacist's scriptures, intending to learn some skills in using poison and detoxifying in case of emergency.
In Li Yu's time, the masters were very particular about retreat and enlightenment, but it was actually very difficult to do so. A retreat master must have three or five disciples serving outside, otherwise he will die of starvation and thirst, and he will be smoked to death by excrement alone. In modern society, there is no such problem, Li Yu rents a house with running water, gas, electricity, and toilets, as long as he buys a few boxes of instant noodles, Li Yu has no problem not going out for a month, this is a cultivator's paradise.
Of course, Li Yu didn't want to stay in this house forever, he studied art and practiced martial arts back then, all in order to be able to survive in the troubled times. Now that Guihongmen is gone, in this peaceful and prosperous world, there is no need for him to use martial arts to save his life, what is the need for him to practice endlessly? Through these two days, he realized that the most important thing he needed to do was to find a living and earn money in this world so that he could enjoy all the luxuries that this world has to offer.
When chatting with Shen Jiaze, Li Yu learned that a rich man's mansion is worth tens of millions, a luxury car costs millions, and there are other fancy worlds in the United States and Europe, which are all gold nests, and they need to be filled with countless amounts of money. Even if you don't think about things that far, for a meal at noon today, it will be more than 2,000 yuan. If he wants to eat such food every day, he has to earn at least 100,000 yuan a month, and what is he doing by selling his jewelry?
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Li Yu still woke up at more than 6 o'clock. He remembered the agreement with Han Hongqi the day before yesterday, hurriedly got up, finished washing, and didn't eat breakfast, so he hurried to the People's Park.
On the lawn in the woods of the park, Han Hongqi and Huang Jiping were walking in a circle boredly, scolding Li Yu while strolling. These old men originally came to learn Han family boxing from Han Hongqi, and Han Hongqi had been teaching very hard before, and everyone was happy. Since Li Yu pointed out that Han Hongqi's boxing method was wrong the day before yesterday, Han Hongqi suddenly lost confidence, not only refused to teach a few old men, but even gave up his habit of boxing several times a day, because as soon as he moved, he remembered Li Yu's routines, and always felt that his movements were wrong, where could he still fight.
Han Hongqi originally thought that Li Yu had promised to teach him authentic boxing techniques one day, and he should be able to fulfill the contract the next day. Who would have thought that yesterday he waited in People's Park until noon, and he didn't see Li Yu's shadow, so he could only go home in a huff. Early this morning, he came here again, and his heart was suffering from gains and losses, for fear that Li Yu would miss the appointment again. He was even thinking that if what Li Yu promised the day before yesterday was just perfunctory, then it would be difficult for him to endure the rest of his life, he couldn't learn authentic boxing, and he didn't have the confidence to practice in the past, isn't this a cheat?
Huang Jiping thinks that whether it is authentic or inauthentic, isn't it just a matter of exercising and exercising, why bother to be so serious. With that young man's behavior that he didn't even want to leave his mobile phone number, maybe he didn't plan to play with them old men. Han Hongqi gave up his boxing skills because of this, which is really unwise.
was chatting, and suddenly heard someone behind him talking:
"Seniors, Li Yu is polite."
As if he had heard some pardon, Han Hongqi suddenly stopped, turned his head suddenly, looked at Li Yu, and said in surprise: "Hey, Li Yu, you are really here!" ”
"You young man, why did you lose your trust, where did you go yesterday?" Huang Jiping also stood down and scolded Li Yu unceremoniously. After all, he has a few laugh lines on his face, like an old grandfather and his grandchildren playing around.
Li Yu didn't say anything about his entry into the detention center, but only said that something was delayed. Han Hongqi didn't delve into it, but asked tentatively: "Then are you busy today?" ”
"Not busy." Li Yu said.
"Then let's talk about learning boxing...... Han Hongqi asked.
"The juniors are here to learn from the seniors." Li Yu replied.
Han Hongqi smiled, waved his hand and said: "What kind of competition, you don't have to put a high hat on us, you are our teacher, we are your apprentices, you are here to teach us boxing." ”
"How dare you." Li Yu bowed down and said, "If you're ready, let's get started." ”
Han Jiaquan is not the most powerful martial arts in Guihongmen, and it is just a beginner's level. Li Yu practiced this road boxing back then, just to lay a good foundation so that he could learn stronger kung fu. Over the years, Li Yu has occasionally picked up this fist and practiced it again, which can be regarded as moving his body and bones. Now to teach Han Hongqi and others, there is no pressure on Li Yu.
The old men each found a place to stand up, and Li Yu stood at the forefront and began to practice one move at a time, explaining the essentials while practicing. Knowing that the learners were old men, he slowed down his movements by several beats so that the crowd could keep up.
Huang Jiping, Shao Haijin and others have no foundation, that is, they just learn to be popular and make up for popularity. Han Hongqi is different, he has been practicing Han Jiaquan for more than 60 years, and he knows every detail of this road boxing very well.
After punching all the way, Li Yu stopped and said to everyone with a smile: "Let's rest for a while, this road boxing can't be learned in a day or two, so you don't need to be in a hurry." ”
"That's right, that's right, there's no need to rush it."
Huang Jiping echoed loudly, and was the first to run to the side to rest. Several other old men also saw sweat on their bodies, and they all walked to the stone bench and sat down, and at the same time beckoned Li Yu to come and sit down.
Li Yu saw that Han Hongqi was still standing on the field, so he stepped forward and said, "Old Han, you can also go and rest together." ”
"I'm not tired." Han Hongqi said, "You go and sit with Lao Huang and Lao Shao for a while, and I'll try again what you just taught." ”
"I'll be with you." Li Yu said.
Han Hongqi politely refused: "No need, let me think about it myself, the effect is better." ”
"Then the juniors will go to accompany Huang Lao and them first." Li Yu said, then came to Huang Jiping's side and sat down.
"Teacher Li, drink some water, specially brought it for you." Huang Jiping handed over a bottle of mineral water and said.
"You're polite, just call me Xiao Li." Li Yu took the water and said respectfully.
"Xiao Li, that's good." Shao Haijin boasted beside him, "I can see that your kung fu is stronger than that old guy from Lao Han." The boxing he taught us to fight, there are always a few places that are not strong, and it will be much more comfortable to practice with you today. ”
Li Yu said: "Shao Lao has won the award, how dare I compare with Han Lao." ”
Huang Jiping shook his head: "Strong is strong, even Lao Han himself admits that you are his teacher, what are you still modest?" Haven't you heard that being too modest is pride, and you are being too modest now. ”
Li Yu had to nod and said, "Okay, then the junior won't say much." ”
A few people chatted a few more words, and naturally talked about Li Yu's living arrangements. Shao Haijin asked: "By the way, Xiao Li, you said last time that you saw Yuhai, what are your plans for the next step?" Are you looking for a school to study, or are you going to find a job? ”
Li Yu said: "I just arrived in Yuhai, and an elder gave me a little money, and my current livelihood is not a problem, but it is not a long-term solution." I'm going to find something to do, and I don't know what advice you have from your seniors. ”
"It's necessary to find something to do, and young people can't always be idle." Huang Jiping said, "With such a good skill as you, I don't think it's a big problem to apply for a security guard in which community." ”
"It's too big to apply for a security guard, Xiao Li, are you willing to go to which martial arts team to be a coach, I can help you contact you." It was Zhuang Renquan, the deputy mayor who used to be in charge of education, science, culture and health.
"How much money do you earn as a coach?" Li Yu asked.
Zhuang Renquan said: "It depends on the situation, generally just joined, and there is no establishment, maybe about 5,000 a month, and there will be some performance allowances and the like, more or less." ”
"This ......" Li Yu showed an embarrassed expression. In fact, the monthly salary of 5,000 is not bad in Yuhai, and it is even higher than Ge Jianyu, a career editor with a graduate degree. But Li Yu spent his money smoothly, how could he put a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan in his eyes. With this amount of money, he only has enough to eat one more meal in Jin Kaiyue a month in addition to the rent, how can he live this kind of life.
"What, the salary is low?" Huang Jiping's eyes widened.
"No, no, no." Li Yu hurriedly denied it, "It's just that I agreed with two friends yesterday that I wanted to pool money to open a restaurant, and now I am preparing for it." Just said good things, no-show is not appropriate. ”
Shao Haijin shook his head and said, "Open a restaurant?" I think it's a bad idea. There are really a lot of restaurants in Yuhai now, unless you can make a distinctive, it is too risky, I advise you to think twice. ”
"Lao Shao, you can't say that, there are many successful examples of opening restaurants." Huang Jiping retorted, and after speaking, he changed his tone and said to Li Yu: "But Lao Shao is right, now when you open a restaurant, you pay attention to characteristics, and there are no characteristics, and it is really not easy to rely on hard work." ”
