As the sun set in the west, Yang Yang and Fermaren left Detokmoste and walked side by side to the bus stop at the intersection.

Yang Yang is still the same as usual, juggling the ball, after four months of training, this has almost become his instinct.

Fermaelen looked at Yang Yang with interest, always feeling that this teammate was very strange and contradictory.

It stands to reason that those who can join Ajax, even if they are only in the second team, are all the best among their peers, but Yang Yang is still carrying out this kind of boring basic training, which is really incomprehensible.

"How did you end up at Ajax?" Vermaelen finally didn't hold back his curiosity and asked.

After a whole day of contact, especially the training just now, his relationship with Fermaelen is undoubtedly much closer, Yang Yang thought about it, and said everything about his affairs in Almere, except for the super training ground.

The Belgians were dumbfounded when they heard it, but they didn't expect Yang Yang to complete the leap from Almere to Ajax in only four months, which is a hurdle that countless professional players have not been able to cross for more than ten years.

"If I have a chance, I'm going to go to the skate park you said to see your masterpiece." Vermaren chuckled.

He was talking about the graffiti wall that Yang Yang mentioned.

"What about you? How did you end up at Ajax? Yang Yang shook the ball and asked.

"Me?" Vermaelen thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I don't know, anyway, one day, all of a sudden, a guy who claimed to be an Ajax scout approached me, and the next day, the club I was playing for told me that they had decided to sell me to Ajax, and they didn't ask me for my opinion from beginning to end. ”

"But then the Ajax people told me that I couldn't join the team for the time being because of my age, so they loaned me out to the old club again, so for the past two years, apart from meeting Ajax scouts every month, I could only hear about it in the newspapers and in the media."

Yang Yang nodded slightly, still juggling the ball, but he could somehow feel some peculiar smell from Fermalen's tone.

John Rap had told him that from the moment he signed his name, he was no longer free.

Maybe at some point in the future, Ajax will suddenly sell him, maybe to a big club, but also to a lower-level team, or even to terminate his contract and kick him out of De Tokmost.

All in all, he is no longer entirely his own.

"Only if you are strong enough can you take control of your own destiny." Yang Yang said this sentence that John Rip had mentioned him.

"That's right." Vermaelen nodded and smiled, "So, not only you and me, whether it is the first team or the second team, whether it is a foreign player or a local player, everyone is thinking about leaving here and stepping towards a higher and broader stage." ”

Today's Ajax has long since lost the glory of the 90s, and the gap between the Eredivisie and the big four European leagues is also widening, both from the economic level and from the competitive level, it is difficult for Ajax and the Eredivisie to retain players.

Yang Yang is still just a nobody, and he is only working hard to gain a foothold in the second team of Ajax, but if he puts himself in his shoes, if he is Van der Vaart or Ibrahimovic and others, whether it is for his own interests or for the development of his career, he will definitely choose to leave.

It's very challenging to play with the best players in the world, whether it's teammates or opponents.

Besides, isn't the meaning of competition to constantly challenge and break through one's own limits?

Thinking of this, Yang Yang was suddenly able to understand a lot of things.

Whether it is the sale of Ajax management, or the player's job-hopping, or the reluctance and anger of the fans, he understands.

At that moment, there was a sudden roar behind them, and then they saw a sports car whizzing past the road next to them, and then they heard a sharp braking, and the sports car came to a stop not far in front of them.

"Hey, it's really you, I suspect I'm wrong."

As Yang Yang and Vermaelen passed by, Swedish centre-forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic was waving at them through the window.

"Hi, hello." Yang Yang walked to the side of the road to say hello.

He and Ibrahimovic have been comrades-in-arms, and they have made an impression on each other.

"You joined Ajax? When did it happen? Ibrahimovic asked happily.

"Report today."

Ibrahimovic saw Fermaren, and then turned to look at Yang Yang, "You also live in Odekerk?" ”

"Well, live across the street from you." Yang Yang nodded.

Ibrahimovic is not surprised, Odekelke is the closest to De Tokmost, and many people in the Ajax Academy live there, so there is nothing to make a fuss about, let alone fate.

"Don't wait for the bus, I'll take you back." With that, Ibrahimovic had already opened the car door and beckoned the two of them, "Get in the car." ”

Yang Yang and Vermaelen glanced at each other, and both felt that there was no need to refuse the kindness of the first-team striker, so they unceremoniously got into the car.

I have to say that this Porsche 911 is really cool and stylish, with two doors and four seats, but the interior space is smaller.

Yang Yang and Vermaelen were both seeing such a stylish sports car for the first time, and they couldn't help but show envious eyes, which made the Swedish center very proud to see it, and the throttle couldn't help but step deeper, and the roar of the sports car became heavier.

"Aren't you speeding like that?" Yang Yang, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked with concern.

"Super, but isn't that how a sports car is enjoyable?" The Swedish center replied as a matter of course.

Yang Yang thought about it, and it seemed that this was really the case, "You let me get off at the intersection in front, and I will go to the supermarket to buy vegetables." ”

"Grocery shopping?" Ibrahimovic's eyes clearly flashed with a hint of discoloration, "You can also cook?" ”

"A little." Yang Yang said modestly.

"Okay, I'll send you directly to the supermarket, you hurry in and buy it, I'll wait for you outside, try your craft tonight." Ibrahimovic replied expectantly.

"Okay." Of course, Yang Yang will not refuse.

Anyway, if you have to cook, one more person will have an extra pair of chopsticks, no big deal.

"If you don't mind, how about I call Maxwell too?" The Swedish center proposed.

"Absolutely." Yang Yang replied very happily.

The Swedish center cheered, pressed the throttle hard, and the whole car suddenly sprinted faster.

It didn't take long for Yang Yang to buy all the ingredients and seasonings needed for dinner from the supermarket, and brought them back to the rented house in large packages.

Not long after he returned, the doorbell rang and Brazilian left wing-back Maxwell arrived.

The 22-year-old Brazilian's personality is very different from Ibrahimovic's, and if the Swedish centre-forward is one of those who are familiar with the outgoing type, Maxwell is introverted from start to finish, and it's hard to imagine that the two of them will be famous first-team buddies.

It is said that they used to be three brothers, and one was Mido, who left the team on a transfer, but then Mido fell out with Ibrahimovic and threw him a pair of scissors, and although they reconciled, they couldn't get together again.

Yang Yang asked Fermaren to greet the two of them, and he went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

After all, he learned his skills from his uncle Shen Ming, and Yang Yang quickly made a pot of fragrant lo noodles and a few delicious side dishes, all of which were Shen Ming's home cooking.

Ibrahimovic, Fermaren and Maxwell, who had never tasted Chinese food before, could not bear it as soon as they smelled the fragrance, and without Yang Yang's greeting, the three of them pounced like wolves.

It didn't take long for the lo mein and side dishes on the table to bottom out.

"I haven't had a good meal for two or three days, it's really good." Ibrahimovic hiccuped and smiled contentedly.

Obviously, he enjoyed the dinner.

Yang Yang and Fermaren both wondered, what was going on?

"Aren't you all to blame?" Maxwell, who was on the side, complained hatefully, "What kind of car do you buy?" Your Mercedes was not very good? Why do I have to change to Porsche? ”

"Porsche."

"But you're going to drink the Northwest Wind, who is like you, just renewed the contract and got the signing fee and ran to buy a car, you spend all your salary, and even throw my share into it, and I will follow you to drink the Northwest Wind......"

In the end, Maxwell was helpless, and it was really ...... to have such an unreliable friend

Yang Yang and Fermalen glanced at each other, and then they all understood why Ibrahimovic would be so proactive when he heard that he was going to the supermarket to buy groceries just now, and dared to feel that he hadn't settled this meal tonight.

It's a bunch of young people who don't care about their heads.

Ajax's salary is a weekly salary, but in fact it is monthly, and there is still half a month before the next month's salary......

Thinking of this, looking at the embarrassed appearance of Ibrahimovic and Maxwell, Yang Yang's heart moved.

"If you think my craftsmanship is acceptable, why don't you come and eat with us during this time." Yang Yang proposed, "It's just that my salary is meager, and I definitely can't greet you with good fish and meat, but food and clothing are not a problem." ”

He can't help but be a little amused when he thinks that he is only 400 euros a week, and he has to support a center forward with a salary of 10,000 euros a week and a left full-back with a salary of 5,000 euros a week, but considering Ibrahimovic's shameless self-familiar character, it is estimated that even if he doesn't say it, he will definitely come over often to eat and drink.

Rather than this, it is better to take the initiative to speak, and be more arrogant, as if it were to make two friends.

Sure enough, after listening to Yang Yang's words, Ibrahimovic nodded and agreed, praising Yang Yang for being righteous enough, and said that he would definitely repay Yang Yang if he found an opportunity, and even Maxwell thanked him frequently, saying that he would pay Yang Yang back when he got his salary next month.

Since he wants to make friends, where would Yang Yang mind this.

After eating and wiping, Maxwell and Fermaelen took the initiative to help Yang Yang clean up, and Ibrahimovic probably felt embarrassed and took care of sweeping and mopping the floor.

After the scrubbing was finished, Yang Yang brought out a plate of cut fruit like a trick, which was so beautiful that the three of them were full of praise.
