Chapter Ninety-Seven: Fatty
"Oh, why should you come here so early? Don't have to go to work at a shopping mall? ”
Ang Lee asked casually.
"He Sir said that he was resting today, and he just had time, so he came over by the way to lead the uncle and them to apply for identity certificates."
Shiwei responded.
He scratched his head, looked at Ang Lee and asked, "Is there anything wrong?" ”
"Nothing."
Ang Lee shook his head.
After all, some time ago, the Yuen Long Snake Fighting Group was destroyed and killed 23 people, and this incident can be described as a boiling matter.
And He Yi also told him that for new immigrants who have recently come over, the immigration office's handling of identity certificates will be relatively strict.
Although there has been little newspaper coverage of the snake group in the past two days, it seems to have been forgotten with time. But Ang Lee inevitably asked more.
……
The sea is sparkling, and the coolies carrying the goods are coming down from the freighter along the nearly five-meter-long gangplank in an orderly manner, and it is lively and busy.
Hou Shijie looked at these coolies and found that compared with the coolies working under other foremen, the enthusiasm of these coolies in front of him seemed to be even higher.
When he came, Ang Lee had already told him that the two berths at Pier 6 were now being taken care of by Xiwei.
After taking a rough look at the situation on the dock, Hou Shijie leaned in front of Xi Wei and patted him on the shoulder.
"Not to mention, these two berths are well maintained."
"I just did what Brother An told me, but I didn't dare to ask for credit."
Xi Wei took the conversation embarrassedly.
For Hou Shijie, Xi Wei can be said to be impressed.
When his brothers dealt with the fat boobs, because it was the first time they killed someone, they almost vomited bile. But the young man in front of him, who was not good-looking, looked as usual, as if he didn't care.
"You don't need to be so modest, do you?"
Hou Shijie joked casually.
Seeing that Xi Wei looked serious, he stopped joking:
"Alright, I'll follow you from now on. You look like some inventory of goods, a planner or something, just help me arrange a job to do. ”
"I don't dare."
Hou Shijie said casually, but Xiwei waved his hand again and again.
When he was working as a coolie under Sanjiang sailors before, Sanjiangshui was almost a hands-off shopkeeper, most of the time he was either helping in the stall or drinking tea in the pergola, and Hou Shijie was taking care of almost everything on the dock.
Now let him arrange it, he doesn't dare to rush into the interface and take care of everything.
Xi Wei just looked at Ang Lee, and the meaning of the inquiry in his eyes was unclear.
Li An thought for a while and said:
"Brother Jie, it's really not easy to arrange things now. If there's anything on the dock that can't be busy, you can just help, and just rest if there's nothing to do. Wait until tomorrow, what do you think? ”
"I'm fine, you just look at the arrangement."
Hou Shijie smiled and nodded.
Since Ang Lee said this, he was also happy to be idle.
"Xiwei, Uncle Jun is not here, you bring Brother Jie over to help first."
"Okay."
Xi Wei hurriedly responded and turned away with Hou Shijie.
Ang Lee glanced around the dock and stayed for a moment on the foremen who were surrounded by horses.
Now that his two berths are well managed, there are enough people, and Hou Shijie is here to help, so it's time to eat a few pieces of the fat meat placed in his mouth.
Meanwhile, the Muay Thai gym on Ferry Street.
Yu Jiujiang and his teacher sat opposite each other.
On a red-painted square table sits a copy of the Hong Kong Times.
"Teacher, yesterday when you fought with Chen Zhansheng of the Cai Li Buddha Martial Arts Hall, you obviously didn't tell the winner, why did you take the initiative to admit defeat?"
Yu Jiujiang looked at the headline in the newspaper and asked with some puzzlement.
For a teacher who has experienced more than 20 years of his career in the ring and has never been defeated, taking the initiative to admit defeat on the premise of not distinguishing the winner is indeed breaking his cognition.
And with his eyesight, he can see that if he continues to fight, his teacher's chances of winning will be a little higher.
Naipong is 45 years old, with dark skin and thick eyebrows and big eyes. Instead of answering his own disciple's question, he digressed.
"Then you say, what is the purpose of my coming to Hong Kong?"
"You're here mainly to spread the word about Muay Thai."
Naifeng took a sip of the teacup and asked again:
"Then you say that if I win this fight, how will the martial arts world react?"
"We won't give up."
Yu Jiujiang didn't think about it, and almost blurted it out.
It's just that as soon as the words came out, Yu Jiujiang was stunned for a moment, and then frowned, as if he understood what his teacher meant.
Naifeng saw Yu Jiujiang's expression in his eyes.
"We're here to spread the word about Muay Thai, not to make a feud with the martial arts world, and we don't have to care about winning or losing.
After a lot of hype in the newspapers during this time, now that most citizens know about Muay Thai, then our goal has been achieved.
You know, it takes time to embrace a new martial art. With fame and more students coming to learn boxing, Muay Thai will naturally take root slowly. ”
Speaking of this, Naifeng chuckled:
"I believe that time will only prove that more and more students will come to learn Muay Thai. I would let Ziri stay in Hong Kong and open two Muay Thai gyms in Wan Chai. ”
Nai Feng also learned about the disciples of the martial arts hall in Hong Kong. In addition to the so-called personal disciples, most of the students in the martial arts hall often learn boxing for three or four years and can only learn a few scratches.
Muay Thai, on the other hand, has obvious advantages, as long as the students can calm down and study for a year and a half, they can achieve initial results.
In the long run, there will naturally be more and more students who come to learn boxing.
Yu Jiujiang agreed: "Teacher, I understand what you mean." ”
He stood up and refilled a cup of tea for his teacher.
Naifeng's rough thumb rubbed against the teacup, and his tone was flat:
"What's going on with that underground boxing ring? The fighters you brought in broke three in just a few days? ”
In Thailand, boxers are very cheap, and the appearance fee for a boxing match is very small.
Most of them are poor boxers who can't even afford their wives and children with appearance fees.
In order to support their families, the fighters can only desperately pick up some cheap underground boxing tournaments to barely make ends meet.
And if you want to fight a Muay Thai champion like him, you have to play hundreds of useless prep matches in advance to get a little more appearance fee in regular matches.
So when Yu Jiujiang took the Muay Thai master of the performance troupe to boxing, and the other party's appearance fee was sufficient, Naifeng had no objection.
Yu Jiujiang's heart tightened, and he hurriedly spoke:
"Recently, there have been a lot of boxers with sharp fists and kicks in that boxing ring, so I folded three fighters in a row."
"Really?"
Naifeng became a little interested: "Then I'll go to the boxing ring with you tonight to have a look." ”
"Hmm."
Yu Jiujiang nodded.
He was silent for a while, but still said: "Teacher, the person in charge of the boxing stadium, Ma Lusheng, has heard of your reputation and hopes to talk to you, and the appearance fee is negotiable." ”
"There's no rush to this."
Nai Feng waved his hand, and the conversation changed:
"It's been five years since you left my gym and returned to Hong Kong, so it's just that there is nothing to do today, let's have a fight and see if you have improved in the past few years."
Yu Jiujiang only hesitated slightly.
"Okay, teacher."
Napong drank the tea from his cup and stood up.
The two walked through the lounge to the gym in the antechamber.
The gym is not big, and it looks like it is about fifty square meters. However, some sandbags, targets and other equipment are readily available, and there is a five-meter-square boxing ring in the middle.
Naifeng took off his shoes and turned over into the ring.
Waiting for Yu Jiujiang to come to power, the two stood opposite each other.
Because it was only a competition between the teacher and the disciple, the two did not dance and pray as in the official competition, and after a simple salute, the two slowly retreated.
Yu Jiujiang's expression was solemn, and his fists were cautiously protected in front of him.
Naifeng moved his neck, and the whole person rushed over, a fierce and ruthless straight punch went straight to Yu Jiujiang's face, and his right foot was ready to attack.
Yu Jiujiang stretched out his hand to block, but dodged away with the slightest contact. The body swayed from side to side, trying to find an opportunity to make a shot.
But Naifeng didn't want to give him a chance to distance himself, and the whole person stepped closer, and his calloused elbow smashed into Yu Jiujiang's temple!
Yu Jiujiang didn't dare to take his teacher's elbow hard, so he could only kick back with his front foot again, intending to dodge and dodge. Unexpectedly, Nai's right foot suddenly lifted, and he kicked his leg violently, and the target was his chest and abdomen.
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Yu Jiujiang didn't think about it, he just hit the top with a knee.
But what Yu Jiujiang didn't expect was that Naifeng's kick to his abdomen was a false move.
He only felt that his knee sank, but when his right foot stepped on his knee, the whole person jumped in the air, and the tip of his elbow smashed down on the top of his head!
Yu Jiujiang's face changed suddenly, and his body tilted to the left, trying to avoid this elbow.
What he didn't expect was that Naifeng, who was in mid-air, changed his move again, arched his body, and slammed his knee into his chin fiercely!
Only then did Yu Jiujiang understand that as soon as the two came into contact, he was completely caught in the rhythm of his teacher's attack.
He subconsciously protected his chin with his arm and blocked the knee well.
Bang bang!
Accompanied by the sharp pain in his arm, Yu Jiujiang only felt a strong force surging down the other party's knee, and his whole person couldn't stop retreating.
When his feet landed, he sprinted, jumped in the air, and slammed into his chest with a flying knee!
Seeing that the flying knee was getting closer and closer to him, Yu Jiujiang could only stretch out his arm to block in pain, and couldn't help but say in his mouth:
"Teacher!"
Nai Feng turned a deaf ear and hit Yu Jiujiang's blocked elbow with his flying knee!
Yu Jiujiang's whole person was knocked one meter away, and he fell on the ring with a bang!
"After coming out of my gym, I haven't grown at all after so many years."
Nai Feng stared at Yu Jiujiang, who couldn't get up, and his tone was indifferent.
