Evening, Manchester, Ferguson's house. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

When Ferguson's car was not very good, Li Xin'er, who was attracted by the sound of the car's engine, couldn't wait to trot up to meet it.

"Brother, how's it going? What do you think? ....”

Without waiting for Li Lei to get out of the car, Li Xin'er was busy chattering. On the delicate face, there were two pieces of red, and the big eyes as beautiful as jewels were full of eagerness and nervousness.

She has always hoped that Li Lei could find a serious job, but she was worried all day today, for fear that Li Lei would not be able to pass today's interview - that is, the trial. Because of this, she has always been a student bully in school, and she rarely deserted in class, so that the teachers who liked her so much thought that the little girl was sick.

As soon as he saw Li Xin'er's appearance, Li Lei knew that this stupid girl had not lived very well all day today, and he immediately couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, this is the sister he swore to protect for the rest of his life and not let her be hurt in any way.

Thinking like this, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curved a gentle arc, no longer so cold, so strong. People who know the prestige of Li Leihua's big insect will not believe that the ruthless Chinese boy will have such a soft side even if he dies.

Although Li Lei didn't nod or speak, as his own sister who had been with him for a long time, how could Li Xin'er not know the meaning of this smile.

"Ah!!h

For a moment, the little girl's crisp and high-pitched cheers resounded in the sky above Ferguson's house. She was so excited that she was thumping like a little rabbit, and her delicate appearance of waving her tender white fists kept waving her little white fist, which caused Li Lei and Ferguson on the side to show a doting and loving smile.

Then, Cathy was told the good news almost at the rush of the little girl. Although, she felt a little regretful that Li Lei finally chose football, the profession that her old man devoted his life. But no matter what, she still expressed her blessings to Li Lei, so the dinner at Ferguson's house tonight was particularly rich.

With good news ahead, today's dinner is naturally full of joy and laughter. After the meal, Li Lei was specially called to his study by Ferguson. He has some things to explain to Li Lei.

"You know, boy, before today, I didn't think you'd pass this day's trial. Cathy and I both think it's best for you to go to my son's agency and get a job. As he spoke, Ferguson suddenly raised his head, looked into Li Lei's eyes with an inquiring meaning, and stopped, not continuing.

It wasn't until he saw that Li Lei's eyes were still firm and there was no wavering look that he shook his head and continued helplessly, saying, "Okay, since you have made up your mind, then we will respect your choice." So, here's some advice from an experienced coach. ”

When Ferguson said this, Li Lei immediately straightened up, completely cheered up, and he knew that the topic had finally come.

"First of all, I would like to state that you will not get any special treatment for me for some time to come. If you want to be a successful professional footballer, you'll have to go through the same training as all the other young players in Carrington. Only if you really have the ability and meet my requirements, I will offer you a working contract. On this point, I must make it clear to you in advance that there is no room for reversal, even if you save my life. Speaking of this, Ferguson paused again, waiting for Li Lei to thoroughly digest his words.

After a while, seeing that Li Lei didn't have any dissatisfied looks, he continued: "Of course, in view of Jimmy and Richard's strong recommendation, I have agreed to their approval to conduct a comprehensive training for you. To be honest, even if your talent is as outstanding as they say, I don't know why they have so much confidence in you. If it weren't for their insistence, your training and development plan would not have been approved by the youth coaching staff at all. ”

Hearing this, Li Lei's heart couldn't help but feel warm again. He was not an idiot, and he could not hear Ferguson's love for him, who had long been trained by the life of the slums. seems to lack confidence in himself, but in fact, he is the next opportunity to point out himself, so that he can seize the opportunity to build a good relationship with Jimmy and Richard.

Even though Li Lei didn't know anything about his future training life, he was very clear about the fact that the county officials were not as good as the current ones.

Although Ferguson is at Manchester United, Carrington naturally has the power to say everything, but the busy and heavy work of the first team is destined to make him unable to put too much energy into Manchester United's youth work.

Under such circumstances, Li Lei, a newcomer to the outsider, will naturally benefit immensely if he can have a good relationship with the coach who is directly in charge of his daily training.

Therefore, Ferguson's words seem to have no practical meaning at all, but they are a sincere and caring guide to Li Lei.

Tightly based on this, Li Lei knew that he owed the respectable old man in front of him a great favor. Even though the other party may not have the idea of letting him return the favor in the future, he still kept it firmly in his heart.

Seeing that Li Lei looked completely obedient, Ferguson felt quite relieved. But on the surface, he didn't show any emotion, and continued to say to Li Lei with a serious expression.

For a long time to come, he explained to Li Lei in detail every point in Carrington's youth system that he needed to pay attention to, did his best, and must not violate. At the same time, he also gave what he thought was the most appropriate suggestion for Li Lei's situation.

Ferguson's words may not be a top-secret piece of information worth a thousand dollars, but for Li Lei, a rookie who is still blank for professional football, it happens to be exactly what he needs most, from the real guidance of an experienced football practitioner.

In fact, until many years later, Li Lei, who had already achieved fame, was interviewed by the media, and still regarded the conversation between him and Ferguson in the study as one of the most important factors and help for his career to really succeed.

Of course, this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

The conversation in the study continued for hours until a hint of exhaustion appeared on Ferguson's wrinkled face. By the time he got up from the couch, the pain in his lower back had already made him grin.

Seeing this, Li Lei was naturally busy going up to help him. However, before his outstretched hand touched Ferguson's arm, he was slapped away by this stubborn old man who still refused to accept his old age.

At the same time, he scolded and said, "I don't need your help, I'm not old yet." "Luckily, it doesn't seem like a big problem, it's just a momentary ache. After a while, he walked out of the study with his usual expression under Li Lei's somewhat worried gaze.

When Ferguson opened the study, he seemed to suddenly think of something, turned his back to Li Lei and said, "By the way, also, I got you a contract for the reserve team." Try to dress neatly tomorrow, and take pictures when you sign the contract, so don't be ashamed of me. ”

"Thank you, old man." Looking at the back of Ferguson, who had never turned his head to look at him, Li Lei could no longer maintain his cold face at this time, and said with gratitude on his face.

When it comes to his future money, Li Lei naturally had a plan early on about the types of contracts that he might be able to sign. Among them, the real professional contracts of the first team are not mentioned for the time being, and the possible signing in front of Li Lei is nothing more than two types of contracts, youth training contracts and reserve contracts.

Of the two, the reserve contract is naturally much better than the apprenticeship, almost unpaid youth contract. However, in Li Lei's own opinion, he can only sign a top-level youth training contract at most this time.

This is not his lack of confidence, but the result of a calm judgment of his current strength.

In the capitalist country of Britain, only ability and strength are the only factors that determine a person's status and salary. Others, no matter how wonderful and brilliant the potential and talent may seem, are of no use at all.

Growing up in England and entering society at an early age, Li Lei knows this all too well, and he doesn't believe it will be different in the world of football. So, even though he knew that his talent and potential were very much appreciated by Jimmy and the others, he would not be naïve enough to think that he would be treated. Because, he couldn't be clearer about his true strength at the moment.

Under such circumstances, it is conceivable how much Ferguson's words shook him. Before that, he didn't expect that this iron-masked old man, who had always been meticulous in the work field, would make a special case because of himself.

He wasn't stupid enough to turn down Ferguson's kindness, he really needed this reserve contract. At this moment, when he couldn't do anything in return, he could only temporarily bury his almost irrepressible gratitude in his heart.

After hearing Li Lei's words, Ferguson never looked back, but walked out of the study with a relieved smile. At the same time, in an almost inaudible voice, he scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy! ”

Until late that night, Li Lei, who had already gone to bed, rarely did not fall asleep. In the darkness of the night, his eyes shone with a bright cold glow, as bright as the stars in the sky. This is a unique expression when he has made up his mind in his heart.

Even then, the unrequited gratitude for Ferguson was still surging in his heaving chest.

Playing professional football, in Li Lei's original thoughts, was originally just a shortcut to make money in order to let Li Xin'er live a rich life. Very pure, without any other attached dreams, responsibilities, feelings. Regarding this point, Li Lei has been very firm since he made up his mind to become a professional football player.

However, at this moment, this once very strong belief seems to have quietly changed, and there is an additional layer of responsibility, but it does not make him feel disgusted.

As for Ferguson's kindness to him and his sister, Li Lei felt that he might not be able to pay it off no matter what he did.

However, even if it is nothing compared to Ferguson's kindness, as long as it is within his ability, he must do it now. Certain!

For example, start with playing football well.

Suddenly, Li Lei's originally calm eyes seemed to suddenly ignite two sky-high fires.

Blazing!

It's burning hot!!

Burning sparks!!
