"You've decided to coach in London?"

At the dinner table in the Huang family's villa, Huang Jinsong and his wife were surprised to hear Ye Qiu say this news.

Before getting married, Ye Qiu and Huang Chu were in long-distance love, although they often called each other, they couldn't see each other for a long time, which must have had a little impact on the relationship between the two, and Huang Chu lived alone, and they were always not at ease.

Besides, the football circle in Europe is Vanity Fair, there are countless beautiful women who are eager to climb the high branches of football stars and make themselves famous overnight, like Ye Qiu is young, handsome and golden, but the hot goods, Huang Jinsong has always been a little apprehensive in his heart.

As a man, especially a man with a successful career like him, of course he knows that it is inevitable to act on the spot, but he is afraid that after a long time, Ye Qiu can't stand the seduction of those women, what will his daughter do when the time comes?

Of course, he didn't doubt Ye Qiu's love and loyalty to his daughter, the two had been in love for so long, who Ye Qiu was, he could see it very clearly, but sometimes, this kind of thing is difficult to say, especially when the husband and wife have been separated for a long time.

"If there is no major mistake, it should be," Ye Qiu said with a smile.

As soon as they heard this piece of good news, Huang Jinsong and his wife were also very happy.

They have long felt that it is not a way for the two husbands and wives to be too far apart, but now that Ye Qiu has gone to London from Amsterdam, the Netherlands, the two of them can buy a house in London and meet every day, which is like a couple

"Okay, it's good to go to London" Huang Jinsong Ha Luha smiled, "By the way, Achu, you Yu Crisp will accompany Ye Qiu back, and go look for a house by the way, my father said before, give you a house, don't save me money, do you know the way?" ”

Huang Chu smiled and nodded in agreement, "We have asked Eliza to help find it, she has opened a real estate agency before, she knows more about this, and I have also considered it, maybe in another year or so, I also want to go back to London." ”

"Back to London? Is Cambridge bad? Huang Jinsong asked strangely.

"It's not bad," Ye Qiu explained with a smile, "The best hospitals in the UK are basically in London, Wellington, Guy and St. Thomas, St. Mary's ...... These best hospitals are all in the city, and if you enter these hospitals, it is better for Achu than to stay in Cambridge. ”

"Yes, Dad, my mentor is going to recommend me, and I also want to be able to take charge of myself and accumulate as much experience as possible." Huang Chu then explained that for her, the most important thing now is experience.

Huang Jinsong couldn't help but nod his head, "Then the house can't be bought in Cambridge." ”

"yes, we're thinking about buying it around London, it's more expensive in the city, and it's basically all in rows." Huang Chu said.

A very interesting feature of houses in London is that they are lined with streets, basically all of them are such houses, two or three floors, with a row of frontages and a small garden at the back, and one of the biggest advantages of such a house is that it is cheap.

Therefore, even the so-called middle-class and wealthy areas such as Kensington, Chelsea and Notting Hill are basically such houses, but for Chinese, this kind of house is very inconvenient, after all, who doesn't want to be a single family?

But in the urban area of London, there are very few single-family villas, and some of them are renovated from decades and hundreds of years old, although they are still very solid, but they look a little dilapidated, and sometimes the price and procedures of renovation are enough for you to have a headache, so after comprehensive consideration, Ye Qiu and Huang Chu both felt that it was better to buy in the suburbs.

First of all, the prices of houses in the suburbs are relatively cheap, the space is very large, basically the back garden has hundreds of thousands of square meters, which is a very common thing, and if it is in some more high-end rich areas, they are basically independent families, and will not be disturbed and affected by the outside world.

But more importantly, these small suburban villages will be even better safe than London.

It's not surprising to think about it, London is a big city, with a large population but complex, and there are only a few rich areas with good security, and other places are basically a mess, especially with the economic downturn in recent years, this situation is even more obvious, so if you live in London and want to have good security, you can only go to the rich area

But in the suburbs of small villages and towns is different, not to mention the single-family household, in some of the more high-end rich gathering places, basically no outsiders can be seen, all the houses are bought by the rich, plus the single-family family, home security can be responsible for themselves, but because a large part of the local government's financial revenue is from the community to pay the property tax, coupled with the government according to the public security situation to give different amounts of subsidies, so that they are very public security.

According to government regulations, properties over 10,000 pounds pay 36 pounds of property tax per year, which is conceivable enough to raise a special forces team in some small villages of wealthy people living in more than 100 households.

According to the data released by the British government, the annual salary of special forces is about 30,000 pounds, and if you hire private special forces bodyguards, the annual salary is 50,000 pounds.

Of course, this also causes the security in the rich area to get better and better, and the security in the poor area to get worse and worse, polarized, but as an ordinary resident, Ye Qiu wants to choose a house, and it must be a place where good security is prioritized.

Huang Jinsong is not familiar with the UK, and he really doesn't know that he has this emphasis on buying a house in London, and he suddenly heard it very novel.

"Achu and I both have to work, so we think that there is no need to buy a big house, usually two people live, you and my parents have passed, that is, three or five rooms, the most important thing is the environment and security, usually such a house should be bought in the suburbs for hundreds of thousands of pounds." Ye Qiu said with a smile.

For him now, hundreds of thousands of pounds is indeed not much, because his signing fee alone is as high as 3 million pounds, which is also a sum of money that Van Praag saved for Ye Qiu, because he is now a free body, if he still has a contract with Ajax, he will have to pay liquidated damages, which is equivalent to giving up the signing fee.

"Even a big garden?" Huang Jinsong asked in surprise.

Ye Qiu nodded, "Buying a house in the UK is basically a set, not counting the square area, no matter the size of the garden, anyway, it is how much a set is, so in many suburbs, the garden is much larger than the house, but it is terribly cheap." After saying that, he couldn't help but feel funny.

At the end of the day, the suburbs are like that, you have to be in Kensington, Chelsea and Notting Hill in the city centre, you don't have a fart, those townhouses have very small gardens, how can you give you a big garden? However, the public facilities are really good, which is certainly not comparable to the urban area in the suburbs.

"Then what should you do if you buy it in London and Achu goes to work?" Chu Yun is most concerned about his daughter.

Huang Chu smiled and took his mother's hand, "We have a car, Mom." ”

Ye Qiu has two cars, Ferrari Enzo and Ferrari 550 The former Ye Qiu drove by himself, and the latter was naturally for Huang Chu.

"Okay, since you have all thought about it, I will listen to you as you like" Huang Jinsong was in a good mood and decided, "But we also have to say okay, I will give you the money to buy a house and renovate"

Although he gave the company's shares to Huang Chu, because Ye Qiu and Huang Chu were not interested in returning to Huangtian Group, he still held the title of chairman, Chen Zhong was in charge of the group, Huang Jinsong was only supervising the work behind the scenes, and at the same time serving as the chairman of the foundation, plus some real estate he had placed in the past few years, so that he was not short of money at all.

In his words, unless he gambles, he will squander his money in this life.

Therefore, the old man rushed to pay, and Ye Qiu of course had no opinion.

Sometimes I have to admire Eliza, almost anything is in her hands, and she can quickly give you a satisfactory answer.

It's like helping Ye Qiu find a house, she only took two days to give Ye Qiu an answer.

Totridge, a wealthy village in the north of London, is 50 kilometers from Cambridge, about an hour or so, basically by motorway, and only a kilometer to Heathrow Airport, and most importantly, it is very secluded, but the transportation is very convenient, this village is all made up of rich people's single-family mansions, and there is no problem with security.

After Ye Qiu received Eliza's message, he immediately flew to London with Huang Chu, but after arriving at Heathrow Airport, the first thing he did was not to see the house, but to see Chelsea's Harrington training base.

The training base is just north of Heathrow Airport, just l kilometres, within walking distance and even minutes by car.

I had heard that Chelsea's training base was terrible, but I didn't expect that when Ye Qiu saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe it, he looked at the piece in front of him in disbelief, well, it was barely a training ground, shook his head and asked Eliza beside him with a wry smile, "This is too bad, isn't it?" ”

Harrington Training Ground is located in the cheap countryside, accessible only by a narrow road.

The entrance to the training ground is two very rudimentary iron gates, how shabby?

The tap water pipe is welded into a rectangle of l meters high, and the inside is welded into two crosses with finer steel bars, both doors are like this, and the anti-rust paint on it has obviously fallen off, mottled badly, rusty, you say, how simple is it?

Next to the iron gate is a brick and iron house, here is the security guard and dormitory, there are some places to put sundries, the iron room and then into the narrow double-storey training building, all the facilities are very simple, the dormitory is similar to the school kind of collective dormitory, although the air conditioning is provided, but it is still not satisfactory.

Downstairs are the coaching staff offices, head coach's offices, meeting rooms, gyms, locker rooms and more.

The equipment room was arranged in a rectangular tin house next door.

Directly opposite the training building and equipment room is the parking lot, which is reserved for the first team and the coaching staff, and the parking lot used to be two full-size football fields, except that the left one has added drainage and geothermal systems, so it looks like the turf area is much smaller than the one on the right.

It can also be seen from this that Chelsea did not pay attention to the training ground before, even in Ajax, basically the training ground of the first team is equipped with geothermal and drainage systems, and London, which has more rain and snow like Amsterdam, Chelsea has only arranged one, and it is a shrunken version, it is really hard to believe that this is a Premier League powerhouse.

There are only four pieces of turf in the entire Harrington training ground, the first team occupies the two standard fields on the right, and the youth team is all arranged on the left side of the entrance, that is, the two large comprehensive turf behind the training building.

"It's strange that such a youth training system can produce good players" Ye Qiu walked to the training ground of the youth team, and after looking at it, he looked helpless, and he found that the security guards at the training ground were not enough, there were only two people, and after answering the call, he let Ye Qiu and them wander around.

But it's no wonder that the entire training ground is empty, and the training building and equipment room are locked, not afraid of stealing.

It's not that Ye Qiu thinks that hardware is more important than software in youth training, but an attitude.

When he sees such a comprehensive training ground, he can imagine that Chelsea's youth training is to mix up players of all ages, and maybe even regardless of age group, and train directly in the comprehensive training ground. If you don't have enough coaches, don't expect to be able to coach the players

'Pini Zahavi has told me before that Abramovich is also unhappy with Harrington and that it is not Chelsea's but rented from the Royal Academy in London, so he is going to re-identify a training ground and buy it to build a new and modern training base.

As soon as Eliza's words fell, the sound of the plane landing was heard from Heathrow Airport, and there was a roar, and nothing could be heard.

In the past, Ye Qiu had long heard that the Premier League team was not only behind the mainland team at the tactical level, but also far behind the other three major leagues in continental Europe in terms of scientific player management and club hardware and software facilities.

Even Chelsea are like this, so what can you imagine what other teams will be like?

"The training turf of the first team is not good, it will be replaced immediately, it is estimated that it will not be able to catch up with the training camp, our training camp this summer will be arranged in other places, and the training building of the first team, I will redecorate, the dormitory for the players to rest at noon must be done, and there are locker rooms, equipment rooms, conference rooms, ......"

Listening to Ye Qiu's crackling words, Eliza listened on the side, took out her notebook and wrote it down, and waited until he finally finished speaking, before he smiled bitterly, "Please, you said so much, doesn't it mean that the entire training base needs to be renovated and rebuilt?" ”

Huang Chu didn't understand this, but this time he also giggled.

Ye Qiu really wanted to scold his mother, but he knew very well that it was none of Abramovich's business, so he directly took out the phone, called Abramovich, and then told him that he hoped to renovate the Harrington training base as soon as possible.

"With Harrington's current situation, unless it's a major rebuild, it's not going to be like a modern top football club, and it's so close to Heathrow Airport that it's not a good training base."

Abramovich also gave a positive answer to Ye Qiu's opinions, to be honest, he was also very dissatisfied after reading it himself, thinking that this is purely a training ground for amateur teams, where is it like a Premier League team?

"The security guards have to be caught, I really don't want our opponents to be in the hands of our opponents in the Harrington training ground, and there are some hardware facilities such as the players and coaches' dormitories, meeting rooms, dressing rooms, medical rooms, etc., which need to be refurbished."

"We must create the best training environment for the players", the last sentence is the focus of Ye Qiu's words.

What did Manchester United build Carrington for? What did Arsenal build Kearney for?

The goal is to create the most comfortable training environment for the players as much as possible, and at the same time adopt a more advanced and modern training system, which is impossible to do at Harrington today.

The simplest, like the speed detection equipment provided by Adidas to Ajax, can detect the player's sprint speed in any situation according to the player's sprint process, such as the speed of the start, 5 meters, 10 meters, 15 meters, 20 meters, meters and 30 meters, followed by 50 meters and 100 meters.

At Harrington Training Base, this is not possible because there is no room for such a set of equipment.

Of course, it wouldn't be good without this set of equipment, but the problem is that with it, the coaching staff can know more clearly the speed of each player on the pitch, and the human eye will deceive, but the data detected by the equipment will not, and such detection can also play a role in predicting and detecting player injuries

Abramovich supported Ye Qiu's proposal 100% on the phone, and he said that the renovation of the Harrington training base must be completed in the shortest possible time, and as for the location of the team's summer training camp, we will discuss it in detail after meeting at Stamford Bridge tomorrow.

Ye Qiu has no problem with this, he said that he will go to Stamford Bridge on time tomorrow to sign with Abramovich and attend the press conference together.

After negotiating these things, Eliza drove Ye Qiu and Huang Chu out of the Harrington training base, all the way north, under Edgwell on the Nl highway, you can see the flavor of the most primitive English town.

Clean roads, red brick and white tiles of England buildings, neat and orderly planning, it is easy to give people a comfortable feeling, but Eliza says that the environment and air in Totteridge are much better than in Edgewell.

Heading east from Edgwell, along a narrow village road, it didn't take long to reach Totridge.

Unlike the densely populated Edgewell, Totteridge is relatively empty, with large gardens and mansions separated by tall oak trees and high walls, making each villa seem to be a separate world.

Eliza has been here twice and is a little familiar, this time she directly drove Ye Qiu and his wife to the gate of the villa she selected, but as soon as Ye Qiu stepped out of the car, she found that there was a person opposite, staring at her.

It's familiar, who's it?

Ye Qiu wondered in his heart.
