Chapter 50 Happy Chinese New Year

Seeing that Long Bisheng really took out a ten-yuan bill and wanted to hand it to himself, Ding Yu was amused, and he waved his hand: "You keep it, I can still ask students for money? You are not as rich as me...By the way, it was Li Fang from U-17 who was talking to you just now? He will soon become my subordinate."

"Ah, Azati... No, Brother Li said he will be in the first team soon." Long Bisheng asked suspiciously.

"Hehe, it's not so easy for U-17s to get into the first team. They always have to get used to the reserve team first, and that's my subordinate." Ding Yu said with a smile. In private, he was not as serious as when he was a coach: "I have noticed this kid before. His physical fitness is as good as yours. He is very good. He is worthy of the physical strength cultivated by herding sheep on the grassland. His passing is accurate. His fixed-point cross is more accurate than ordinary professional players, and his speed is rare... I only know that he is from XJ, but I don't know. You know him, you still look familiar."

"Brother Li's home is not far from my home. I used to pass by the grassland where he grazes sheep when I was leaving school." Long Bisheng replied with a smile, "He didn't know how to play football before he met me, but when he was herding sheep, he always used a kick to scare away sheep that ran away with a stone. It is probably at that time that he practiced crossing."

Hu Gandang and the others laughed, they didn't quite believe Long Bisheng's words, because this kind of thing was a bit unbelievable, but they also knew that Long Bisheng never lied, and he was not good at lying, so they took a dubious attitude towards Long Bisheng's words.

Ding Yu believed that because Li Fang was discovered by Wang Sa, the chief scout of Yunjiatianyu, and after arriving in Yunjiatianyu's echelon, his foundation was worse than that of Long Bisheng. He was already 15 years old but had no foundation at all. Wow, a person who basically can't play football has such a beautiful crossing ability. At that time, the coaches of all echelons were really amazed. Now it seems that only this little story told by Long Bisheng can explain it.

After hearing this, Ding Yu probably knows how to train Li Fang in the future. It is nothing more than strengthening his basic training. After all, Li Fang’s foundation may not be as solid as Long Bisheng, but his running ability and passing ability are too practical on the field, so that he can enter the reserve team smoothly at the age of 17. If he does not strengthen basic training, it will be too easy for the opponent to defend him after seeing through his details.

At this time, Long Bisheng was a little worried and asked: "Is it the reserve team? Brother Li Dachang plans to bring all his parents to Yunjia immediately. If it is the reserve team, will he have no income? What will his parents do then? Yunjia doesn't have grass for them to graze sheep—you can't sell mutton skewers in Yunjia, right?"

When Long Bisheng said this, not only Ding Yu laughed, but even Hu Gandang and the three of them couldn’t help laughing—the reserve team is actually a player who can’t play in the first team. If he can enter the reserve team, he can at least get a professional contract. Not to mention, even Yunjia Tianyu’s reserve team has the lowest income. In Yunjia, a city where prices are not too high, it is absolutely no problem to support a family of three. With help, if you can get to this point, at least you don't need to worry about your future life.

After explaining to Long Bisheng in detail, Long Bisheng suddenly realized that he had a basic concept of the lucrative income of professional players.

After chatting for a few more words, Ding Yu looked at his watch and muttered, "Why is it only nine o'clock...tonight is the time to watch the New Year's Eve...I have to find something to do. You guys, don't stay in the dormitory all the time, go out and have fun. I heard that there will be a lottery draw tonight in the entertainment center."

"I'm not going, I want to rest for a while." Long Bisheng said.

"Xiaolong, I've heard about you from Xiaohu and the others. You can't do it like this." Ding Yu stopped. "Work hard when you should work hard, and relax when you should relax. People's nerves can't be stretched all the time, maybe they will break at any time... Today is the time to watch the year, let's go play with Xiaohu and the others, and relax. Those professional players will go everywhere for vacation at the end of each season.

Long Bisheng looked at Ding Yu with some hesitation, and Ding Yu was annoyed by him: "I said, why are you like this kid? A kid as old as you is trying to find ways to play, but you are lucky, trying to train and not play... Do you understand that this will obliterate your nature? Nature, do you know what nature is? Nature is a natural personality! A player without his own personality will never achieve much. Yunjia Tianyu will not want that kind of player produced from the assembly line!"

Long Bisheng looked at Ding Yu pitifully, and said aggrievedly, "I'll just go..."

Ding Yu shook his head: "It's like forcing you to play... There are still such human beings. How can I say that I am also born in the [-]s, so there is not such a big generation gap with you born in the [-]s?"

Li Jie reminded weakly from behind: "Coach, you are from the early 70s, and we are from the late 80s...the difference is almost 20 years."

**************************************
The entertainment center of the football school is not too big. The two bookstores only rent out some books such as novels and comics. The number is quite a lot. The video room can only accommodate about a hundred people. Flies couldn't fly in, and there was an empty table in the billiards room. Unfortunately, except for Zhang Yi, the other three didn't like to play billiards.

"Is the coach lying to us?" After visiting a small entertainment center, Zhang Yi asked doubtfully, "Where is the lottery?"

"Why do you think there are so many people left in our school? Usually there are not so many people here." Li Jie looked around and said, "If you say that China should really implement family planning-every time I go shopping on the street, I think so."

Hu Gandang didn't speak, he was still upset because he couldn't watch the game.

"It's boring." Long Bisheng yawned: "There are people everywhere, all doing their own things, no one pays attention to us... Forget it, it's better to go back to sleep, and get back to training tomorrow."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them grabbed him with six hands: "The coach said...you can't leave! Besides, today is the New Year's Eve. You don't go to bed until after twelve o'clock. No one will blame you!"

Long Bisheng lamented: "Don't do this, I want to sleep..."

"Let's go to the bookstore. There is a bookstore with a very nice owner. You can read a book there for ten cents." Zhang Yi suggested.

"I heard that there is a very beautiful little girl there, who is the same age as us, and she is also very eye-catching!" Li Jie said extremely lewdly.

"Damn, you rascal, how did you know that?" The three of them looked at Li Jie together like a beast.

"That kid Dai Guangming slipped his mouth once..." Li Jie said proudly, "I asked him why he always went to a bookstore to read books. He said that there was a beautiful woman in this bookstore, who was about our age, and that she liked to chat with him very much."

"Beasts, beasts." Zhang Yi and Hu Gandang sighed together: "I started to learn how to look at beautiful women at a young age, and I will definitely be a pervert when I grow up. It seems that we should pay attention to this kid in the future, lest he go on the road of crime."

Just when Long Bisheng admired their righteous words, Zhang Yi had already raised his arms and shouted: "Go, let's go see the beauties too!"

"Damn!" Long Bisheng, who hardly swears, couldn't help but spit out these two words: "Da Guangming is a pervert, what are you?"

"We just want to appreciate beauties!" Li Jie said, "Appreciation is a kind of respect for beautiful things, do you understand?"

"...Then what's the difference between your approach and Dai Guangming's approach?" Long Bisheng said speechlessly.

"The monk can touch it, but I can't?" Zhang Yitian said with a straight face.

It's a pity that they still couldn't see this legendary beauty in the end. When the four of them went to that bookstore, there was only one kind-hearted middle-aged aunt in the store, who treated them very warmly. Hu Gandang and the others were very frustrated, but Long Bisheng was very happy because he read books for more than an hour in the store for free - the aunt said that today's Chinese New Year, it will be open for free for two hours.

When it was almost twelve o'clock, a group of them walked out of the bookstore. At this time, many children like them walked out of the entertainment center, and they quickly gathered into a long queue.

The reason why this happened was because a bright firework exploded in the middle of the school playground.

The loud sound woke everyone up. Following this firework, more firework rose in the sky. It was not until the next day that the students knew that the grand finale tonight was a firework show, which was presented by the school to all the students who stayed in school for the New Year.

"Happy New Year."

Looking at the fireworks, Long Bisheng suddenly said something to Hu Gandang and others beside him.

Hu Gandang laughed loudly: "Happy New Year to you too!"

The new year is coming.
