Chapter 136: The Wanderer Returns Home
Chapter 136: The Wanderer Returns Home
Mendes talked a lot with Gao Bo, but Gao Bo didn't agree on the spot.
Brokers?
When Mendes was sent away, Gao Bo was still thinking about it.
On the plane back to China, Gao Bo touched Mendes' business card on his chest, which had Mendes' phone number on it.
Mendes didn't ask Gao Bo to agree on the spot, he gave Gao Bo time to think about it.
"If you've thought about it, feel free to call me!"
Mendez handed Gao Bo a business card.
"Trust me, there's no better agent in the whole world than me!"
Mendez said this with confidence.
Perhaps for every industry, self-confidence is the foundation of success. Gao Bo is like this in every game.
Regarding the matter of the broker, Gao Bo did not think too much. He turned on the football card system on the plane, after all, he hadn't used the FA Cup prize yet.
A blue card voucher, 100 lottery chances, 8,000 experience!.
The XP required to level up to the third level is 60,000! Counting the 8,000 XP gained and the experience gained from defeating Liverpool itself, Gao Bo's current level is: Level 2: 15000/60000
It's still far from an upgrade...
Gao Bo hesitated, and finally resisted the urge to use the voucher immediately. He will have to wait until the start of the new season, depending on the team!
After that, Gao Bo put on an eye patch and fell asleep on the plane.
After more than ten hours of flying, by the time he opened his eyes, the plane was ready to land at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport.
After experiencing the bumps of the plane when landing, after more than ten hours of flight, after six years, Gao Bo finally set foot on his homeland again.
There were no tears in his eyes, and when Gao Bo walked out of the airport, it was so hot that it was about to explode.
The temperature in Guangdong in May and June is already more than 30 degrees.
....
Subway, bus. After several tosses, Gao Bo finally returned to Meizhou.
This is his hometown, this is the football city in the south, and at one time, like Dalian, there were many international players.
Of course, the most famous footballer here is Li Huitang, the Chinese football king of the twenties and thirties.
Gao Bo carried a backpack and pulled his luggage, looking at the busy construction site in front of him in a daze.
What about the orphanage that you grew up in?
What about the hillside that carries countless childhood memories?
What about the sand-covered soccer stadium that has left me bruised countless times?
Now all of them are gone, replaced by buildings that look like unfinished neighborhoods, with shelves outside the floors that have not yet been removed, and the roar of vehicles carrying dirt and building materials to and from here mingles with the shouts of workers.
Gao Bo looked at the scene in front of him a little blankly, he had grown up in an orphanage, and in a sense, this was his home.
But the situation in this house is too different from what it looked like six years ago... The orphanage is gone, where is the home?
....
"An orphanage?"
"It's been demolished a long time ago!"
"There was a big deal during the demolition... The real estate company seems to have hired some people to chase people out..."
"I heard that the old dean was seriously injured..."
"That's a good guy..."
......
Gao Bo listened to the discussion of the people around him, and the more he listened, the more anxious he became.
What about the people in the yard? Where have they gone? And Chen Lao, where did Chen Lao go?
He's hurt?
I don't know if it's serious.
For Gao Bo, he has no relatives, he was brought up by Chen Lao, who was like a master and a father when he grew up. When I was a child, Mr. and Mrs. Chen taught the primary school curriculum, one teaching Chinese and the other math, from the first grade to the sixth grade, until the children went to junior high school.
"The dean surnamed Chen? I heard that I went back to my hometown.."
From the mouth of the construction site security guard, Gao Bo heard such a message.
Home?
Gao Bo breathed a sigh of relief, Chen Lao's hometown was not too far from Meizhou City.
When he changed the means of transportation several times, Gao Bo stared at the big sun, pulled the suitcase that had been stained with a lot of sludge, crossed the country road, and saw the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village and the pond at the door, Gao Bo breathed a sigh of relief.
This is it.
When he was a child, Mr. Chen often brought his children here during the winter and summer vacations, and Gao Bo also had an impression of this place.
After not returning for several years, Chen Lao is the only person Gao Bo cares about in China, I don't know how his old man's health is?
Gao Bo walked around the ridge of the fish pond into the village, and when he walked through the open space at the entrance of the village ancestral hall, he attracted the attention of a large number of children playing football in the open space.
This is a village deep in the mountains, and it is rare to see outsiders, wearing a white T-shirt, pulling a suitcase, and carrying a large backpack, Gao Bo naturally attracts a lot of attention.
Gao Bo looked at the children playing football in the open field, there were about a dozen people here, the eldest one was sixteen or seventeen years old, and the youngest was only seven or eight years old.
They haven't been back for six years, and I don't think anyone will remember them anymore. Gao Bo glanced at the ancestral hall in the village, except for the ancestral hall, the old houses in the village have been replaced by new ones. Six years, a lot has changed.
Gao Bo smiled and nodded at these children, and then he found the eldest child who looked like he was inside, although he hadn't returned for many years, but the Hakka dialect in his mouth was quite pure: "Hou Shengzi, is Old Man Chen Guoping at home?" ”
"You're looking for my grandfather?" The young man was a little surprised, he scratched his head, and always felt that the person in front of him was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
Gao Bo was stunned, this is Old Chen's grandson? Doesn't he only have one granddaughter?
He looked the young man in front of him up and down, his face was immature, he had a round head, he was holding a peeled soccer ball in his right hand, his facial features were also upright, he looked like he was seventeen or eighteen years old, his figure was tall, he was even a little taller than Gao Bo when he stood up straight, and the shoulders on both sides were very broad, and his body looked very strong.
If you didn't look at his face, Gao Bo would have thought that he was an adult.
"Yes, my name is Gao Bo. Chen Lao brought it up. Gao Bo nodded and said.
The young man patted his head and looked as if he had suddenly realized: "You are Gao Bo?!" ”
"Yes, I'm Gao Bo!" Gao Bo was a little strange.
"You're the same guy who won the FA Cup with Luton Town the other day?!" The kid looked excited, and he scratched his ears and cheeks as if he had a lot to say.
Gao Bo was stunned, he really didn't expect to meet someone who recognized him in this small mountain village.
"Grandpa said he knew you very well, I thought Grandpa was bragging..."The young man said babblingly.
Gao Bo laughed dumbly, Chen Lao just likes to joke with children.
I am very familiar with Mr. Chen, to a certain extent, Mr. Chen has always played the role of a father in the process of growing up.
"High guidance!" The young man grinned and flattered his face and threw the football out, "My name is Li Yuanshan, far away, mountain peaks!" ”
As he spoke, Yuanshan enthusiastically snatched all the luggage and backpacks from Gao Bo's hand and carried them on his back.
"Play by yourselves!"
It seems that this distant mountain is still the head of this little child, but his words caused a cheer from the children around him.
"Looks like they don't like to play with you."
Gao Bo teased behind the distant mountain.
"It's not fun to play with them, I'm all guarding the door for them, if not.... I'm all in the middle league! ”
This kid is still trained in football?
Gao Bo took a closer look at his figure, judging from his body, he really looked like an athlete, but he didn't know what his strength was.
Following behind the distant mountain and passing through an alley, Gao Bo saw from a distance an old man in a tunic and glasses, with all white hair sitting on a rocking chair and shaking, his palms still on his thighs.
"Old Chen!"
Gao Bo hurried up a few steps and shouted.
I haven't seen him for several years, and Chen Lao looks much older than before.
The old man opened his eyes and sat up suddenly, startling Gao Bo.
He jumped out of his rocking chair and walked over in a few steps. Gao Bo was startled when he watched the old man jump off the wicker chair........ I haven't seen him for many years, but this old man's body is okay...
"Wavelet !!"
"It's been six years since I left..."
Hearty laughter rang out.
Gao Bo's eyes turned red when he heard this, and he hugged the old man into his arms.
This kid... I went to a foreign country, and even learned the bad habit of foreigners who just meet people...
Chen Lao patted Gao Bo on the back and thought.
