Chapter 19: The First Jersey
The first day of training was very rewarding.
Not only gained experience, but also familiarized himself with some basic information of the school team, on the way back to the dormitory with Bai Youwei, Wei Xiao was very excited, and he had completely forgotten that Ding Yike said that he didn't have jerseys and sneakers.
Lying on the bed and opening the system interface, Wei Xiao took a good look at his values.
On the left side of the interface, here are some basic information:
"Name: Wei Xiao
Age: 19 years old
Height: 179 cm
Weight: 66 kg
Position: Defender
Type: Scorer without the ball
Mamba Power: 100% three-point jumper
On the right-hand side, there is a menu list of training systems:
"Mamba Energy: 4700
Mamba Boost: Phase 1
Daily Training: Completed
Hang on! Four o'clock in the morning
Extreme challenges
Weekly roulette
Energy Store
Combined Capacity: 47"
Wei Xiao clicked on the button of comprehensive ability, which showed the specific ability value of his various attributes.
The mid-range shooting that he pays more attention to has risen from 60 at the beginning to 77.6.
Other ability attributes have basically not changed, just because Wei Xiao chooses shooting training almost every day, sometimes he gets tired, so he changes to something else to practice, and he completed an extreme challenge during the winter vacation, in addition to all the attributes about shooting have been increased, even the physical fitness has increased a little.
The duration of the Extreme Challenge is one week, and the cooldown time is half a month.
The last time Wei Xiao chose the shooting challenge, he shot 20,000 shots in one week.
That is, more than 2,800 shots have to be made every day, and it is counted if you have to make a shot.
Professional athletes are more diligent than thousands every day, and 2,000 are definitely perverted.
In fact, Wei Xiao tried it in the previous summer vacation, but failed due to lack of preparation.
If it weren't for the winter vacation and time, and full preparation, Wei Xiao would definitely not have been able to complete it.
If you can do one or two extreme challenges every month, Wei Xiao's comprehensive ability will definitely break through to 50.
However, the university has to spend a lot of time in class, and also devotes some energy to study, so Wei Xiao does not have the energy to challenge.
Wei Xiao set a goal for himself, before entering the sophomore year, the ability must reach 55, and the junior year will hit 70. If he succeeds, then by the end of his senior year, he will have a chance to become a professional footballer.
However, at the current pace, it would be good to be able to break the 50 mark before the end of the semester.
On the one hand, Wei Xiao hopes that the formal training of the school team can significantly improve his ability value in addition to the help of the Mamba system, and on the other hand, he began to consider whether to fight for character, try the "weekly roulette", and fight for character.
It only takes 30 energy to get more energy, or even a straight daily training session.
Of course, there is also the possibility of having nothing and wasting the energy that has been earned so hard.
So Wei Xiao has been holding back useless.
He also thought about going to the Mamba shop to buy some move tutorials later.
The move tutorial can be said to be a weakened version of the power of the mamba.
As long as you buy the tutorial and follow the tutorial to learn and complete the assessment, when you use the same action in actual combat, you will have a high success rate or hit rate.
He fell in love with a set of back-to-back singles moves, which can be described as handsome and practical, but he knew that spending more than 20,000 yuan to buy this unique skill that was not suitable for his playing style, it was better to get a little more practical.
For example, three steps back.
In this way, he can use the power of the mamba as a special move and leave it for the critical moment to use it. You can usually use more step-back three-pointers to improve the three-point shooting percentage, which can also speed up the promotion.
As long as the shooting percentage of non-jumping shots also goes up, this is a good cover-up, and it is difficult for other Mamba disciples to suspect it.
It's just that it takes 20,000 points to retreat for three points, and the mamba energy that has been stored for so long is less than 5,000. At today's pace, it is estimated that it will not be available until at least the sophomore year.
Unless, weekly roulette can explode in character.
He is used to regular work and rest, and he goes to bed at 12 o'clock at night, but because of excitement and entanglement in how to quickly improve his ability value, he can't sleep this night.
Anyway, there is no class tomorrow morning, so he simply joins the dormitory and a few brothers who are still fighting in front of the computer overnight, and goes to the stadium to sign in until four o'clock in the morning.
After finishing the task at 4 a.m. and not continuing his daily training routine, he immediately went back to sleep, and did not wake up until noon during the day, and after the excitement fell silent, he quickly remembered about his jersey and sneakers.
The mood suddenly became solemn, if he had just gotten this month's pocket money, he still had a lot of room for adjustment.
Coincidentally, it's only halfway through this month, and I want to buy jerseys and sneakers, so I don't have to eat.
Tell my dad that I have entered the basketball team and need to buy a pair of sneakers?
Forget it.
Daddy will definitely just say, if you don't study hard, what kind of bullshit basketball you play! I'll send you to college, and you can play basketball for me!
Dad didn't go to college, and in his mind, college was also a place to study. Since you can't read half-heartedly.
What's worse, Daddy is still a man who eats the past, and any persuasion and explanation will only be in vain.
If only my mother were still around, she might be able to help persuade her. But as soon as he thinks of his mother, Wei Xiao's heart turns into a peeling onion.
His mother died when he was in junior high school.
Therefore, junior high school is the life he is most reluctant to look back on.
He was so depressed for almost the entire junior high school that he failed the college entrance examination. Only did he have to go to a private high school, not only did he not have a basketball team to realize his dream when he was a student, but his father also had to pay more money for him to go to school.
If it weren't for the blood relationship, I'm afraid that since high school, he and his father have become strangers who no longer intersect.
Fortunately, he worked hard enough in high school and was admitted to Xingchen University, at least an undergraduate college, which made his father willingly give him money to go to college.
Otherwise, it is definitely possible for him to go out of society to work directly.
On this absent-minded day, Gan Yuan thought about it and thought about it, and he only thought of two ways.
The first is to advance the next month's pocket money with my father. At most, I will be scolded for what I am accustomed to, but I still have a chance to give it;
The second is borrowing.
Find someone you know to borrow shoes, or even borrow money.
Like Wu Xuan in the class, a few people participated in the class competition, and some even bought basketball shoes, but they didn't play often.
If the shoes fit more or less, he can borrow them or even buy them at a second-hand friend price that he can accept.
This might make others laugh at him, and he can't even afford to buy basketball shoes? But as long as the goal is achieved, it doesn't matter what other people think.
If you borrow money. He didn't know much about online student loans, and he couldn't think of it.
Borrowing from his classmates was his last resort. He doesn't like it, he'd rather borrow shoes that other people have worn.
My father owed a lot of interest because he borrowed money, which caused the family to become poorer and poorer, and the most important thing was personal debt.
He used to look at his domineering father in front of him, but he was low in front of those creditors, and even had no dignity, although he had a grudge against his father, but as a son, he was still very uncomfortable.
Therefore, borrowing money is the last resort.
Lying in bed at night, he thought of a third way.
That is, to confess to Ding Yike that his family conditions are not good, and he needs more time to prepare.
It's just that he doesn't want to make any excuses for the future manager's requirements.
There are two days left before the next school team training camp, that is, the day after tomorrow.
So it's time to get started today.
The solution has been figured out, just see which one to try first.
After completing his daily training and morning jog in the morning, he returned to the dormitory to get a dilapidated mobile phone that he was reluctant to repair if the screen was broken.
Go downstairs, find a no-man's corner, and dial Daddy's phone.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Daddy."
"What's wrong?"
"I want to advance next month's pocket money."
"I knew it wouldn't be good for you stinky boy to call suddenly!"
"There are activities in the class this month, and the class fee is paid more."
"And how much money do you have left!"
This question made Wei Xiao hesitate, if he answered truthfully, it would definitely be enough to eat and drink.
So you can only do it and just lie?
Anyway, the phone has already been called, and being scolded is inevitable.
He secretly made up his mind and reported a figure that might not even be enough to nibble on steamed buns every day.
"You stinky boy! You tell the truth! Where the hell is it used! How could the class fee be so much! ”
On the other end of the phone, Dad's anger rose rapidly, but Wei Xiao, who was used to it, was not flustered.
"Actually, it's not just the class fee." Wei Xiao thought for a while and said, "After the event, I went out to dinner, it was AA, and everyone shared how much I ate, and I was embarrassed to let the family have less, so I couldn't help but give it back to others." ”
"You know you're going to pay for it yourself, and you still go! You're stupid! ”
"I thought the class fee was ...... in advance"
"Alas, don't say it! I'll call you a little more! Pay attention to me later! ”
"Oh."
Without saying a word of thanks, Wei Xiao hung up the phone.
He had a hunch. The call could be in vain.
Only then did he realize that even if he said so, his father might not have much money to call.
It wasn't until the afternoon that the sound of receiving text messages rang out.
Sure enough, the money I called was only enough to eat for two or three days. It was twice as many as the number he wanted.
It's okay to buy a poor jersey, but a pair of second-hand sneakers still has to be left from the original to see how you can save it.
Regardless of whether there were enough sneakers or not, he went to buy a jersey himself. Although online shopping is cheap, it may be too late to ship, and going to the old shopping street is actually about the same.
He sat in the car for an hour, wandering from afternoon to evening, and finally found a set of jerseys that were suitable for the price and put together in front of him.
In any case, it was his first shirt.
Next, as long as you can get your shoes tomorrow, that's it.
After returning to the dormitory and thinking about it all night, he basically had a plan.
If you can't borrow a pair temporarily tomorrow, then eat steamed buns in the next half month!
If you eat less for a while, the impact will not be great, just resist the past.
But when he woke up, he thought, if he can fight it himself, why should he find someone to borrow it?
So he got in the car and went to the shopping street again, only to blame for the fact that he patronized the jersey yesterday and didn't look at the sneakers carefully.
If there was a suitable price, he gritted his teeth and bought it.
However, the price of basketball shoes in this shop exceeded his expectations. Even if he picks the cheapest copycat parallel goods, he really can't even choke on steamed buns.
