soul of baseball

589 Chapter 163

Shen Qin opened the closet, and the brand new clothes were all his size, but the tag was cut off.

I felt around the room carefully, and it was all brand new!All new!
Just like sewing money into dolls when I was a child, the needlework is rough and there are loopholes everywhere.

Tsk tsk, that guy's figure can still be stuffed into these clothes?Speaking of which, how did it grow so strong?

Why... didn't you go to college?

Thinking about it, it's really amazing that this person came to me just like that!

I received a call from the other party the next day. It sounded a bit exhausting, but I still asked about the situation here one by one. Are you used to your daily life~ Is the room comfortable~
"Everything is fine, when will you come back?" Shen Qin felt a little distressed, just now he said that he had a few months of vacation, why did he turn around and go back to work again?He helps himself in this way, does his family know?Give such an expensive thing!hell!
The words got out of my mouth and I still didn't say anything. When you come back, ask in person, it's not someone else!
"The day after tomorrow, do you like sweets? The chocolate here is not bad."

Shen Qin hissed: "I don't like sweets, so don't waste money."

"Okay." Xi Chuan was a little strange. Wasn't this child tricked by himself with a lollipop when he was a child?Although in the end I was tricked by adults to use the playground, new clothes and so on~

"Then you come back to eat! Tell me the flight number in advance, and I will pick you up."

"Good~"

……

Xi Chuan brought back a lot of snacks. He didn't know what the other party thought of the snacks, so he inevitably bought more of them.

Shen Qin could only arrange a large pile of them neatly on the TV cabinet and coffee table: "Go and wash your hands, you can eat soon."

"Take a shower first, it always feels a little sticky."

"The towels are on the bed for you."

Xi Chuan touched his nose strangely, what's going on?The sense of distance suddenly disappeared?

~

At that time, Shen Qin was still a student with occasional gentleness in his heart. Right now, he only remembers himself for the other party, and feels good for himself.

And Xi Chuan is only a young man in his 20s at the moment, and all his emotional intelligence is used in various interpersonal interactions at work, so that the current situation has become purely silly.

After the two revealed their identities to each other, there was no quarrel. On the contrary, they had a meal in harmony.

"Did the family give you a lot of money? You have given me a lot in the past few years."

"No." Xi Chuan looked at the person opposite, got up and sat there with the bowl and chopsticks.

"What are you doing?"

"We used to sit like this when we were kids! I'll help you pick what you want to eat!"

"Bah!" Shen Qin glared: "I have long hands and legs, so I don't need help. Forget it, lotus root slices."

Xi Chuan happily picked up the food, and then patted his head again: "I'm sorry, I dare not tell you, for fear that you will refuse."

"Why should I refuse? I have to study, I am very grateful to you, and I will not blame you." Shen Qin paused before asking: "You, why don't you go to college? Do they treat you well?"

Here they are talking about Xi Chuan's parents. Shen Qin is quite worried about this. He doesn't think they treat Xi Chuan very well. Looking at her daughter, this is probably the reason why the other party can always find time to help her.

"That's it, I haven't contacted you for many years."

It was natural to say this, but Shen Qin felt very sad: "These years have not been easy. You shouldn't have come to do such a subsidy. The work is already very hard. If you save some money, I can't do it now." You can work as a tutor, and you can go to school when you have enough money, and you still have to study in college.”

Xi Chuan was stunned, and suddenly laughed for a long time, getting more and more distant, and finally even covered his stomach, he knew that Shen Qin thought of his job as a coolie~ Well, in fact, sometimes it is true It is full of suffering.

A little bit happy, but also a little bit like crying!
is it hard?It was really hard for a while.

"When I first came to the United States, I was not in college, I was not well-known, and I was in a position where it was not easy to perform. My signing bonus was just a little, and it was all taken away by my family. At that time, the salary was very low, just one month a month. Around a thousand, it’s quite rare.”

"A few years ago?" Shen Qin felt a little distressed, thinking of the signing fee and asked again: "Are you going to be a star?"

"Four years ago, if you want to talk about a star, you have just emerged?" Xi Chuan thought for a while, isn't a star a star?

Four years ago, Shen Qin was still in high school, so the tuition fee was collected for himself in the second year?Relying on a monthly salary of 1000 yuan?
Then the voice seemed a little sour: "Singing or acting?"

"Huh? I'm a little sports star."

"Sports?" Shen Qin was stunned. He pulled the person up to compare his height, and then carefully sized up his figure: "What sports? A manager? A doctor?"

Xi Chuan smiled and sat back: "What? I don't look like a player?"

"It's not like that! You have to be tall and strong to play basketball, right?" Shen Qin's understanding of American sports is only in the NBA, but to be honest, Xi Chuan's figure really doesn't look like this!

"Don't think about it, it's playing baseball. There are many people who are thinner than me."

Xi Chuan said and stretched out his forearm and swung it: "What this sport needs most is balance."

Facing the strong forearm, Shen Qin couldn't help poking it. He really had never encountered such a thing in his life. Even if he had never watched baseball, he became interested. So this can make money?
No no no! "Then how much is your current monthly salary? Is it enough? I..." He faltered again, how could it not be enough, just live in a star hotel!
"Now I don't receive a monthly salary, it's an annual salary, and it's a guarantee contract. I signed it directly for 5 years."

"Five years? What will happen after that? They won't care about you?"

The round face got closer, and Xi Chuan couldn't help stretching out his hand to pinch it. In fact, he couldn't remember the feeling of his hand when he was young, but now the tentacles are slippery and soft. Thinking about it, it was the same at that time, right?
And it's so strange, isn't what most people ask at this time the annual salary?How much money will you make in five years?How did Shen Qin become five years later?
"It's not much. After deducting taxes in one year, it's probably in the early nines, but the victory is stable. If you can't play due to injuries, you can still get the money. After five years, wait until this contract is over before signing another contract." One copy will do, and I will be young at that time, so it won’t be a big problem.”

Early nines?Ninety thousand?Shen Qin quickly calculated: "What expenses do you usually have?"

"During the game? No expenses, at most, I will eat out when I am hungry. Accommodation, transportation, etc. are all included. I don't usually need to buy clothes. I haven't bought these for many years, even socks. That’s right, you can’t finish wearing it.”

Shen Qin was suspicious, and it sounded like Fuli looked good: "Do you have any photos? From the competition?"

"Of course there are!" Xi Chuan directly unlocked the phone and threw it over: "Look for yourself, I'll eat another bowl."

~

There are not many photos on the phone, all of them are related to the ball.

Shen Qin is very unfamiliar with the beautiful jersey and equipment. His only impression of baseball is probably the hitting bat in the movie. I didn't expect it to be so good-looking!

A section of blue sleeves is exposed inside the white jersey, and there is a cute teddy bear on the left chest, blue belt, blue sneakers, blue hat, and even blue sunglasses: "It looks like a children's ball Team oh, the style is very cute."

Xi Chuan, who came back with the meal, was a little helpless: "This is a retro jersey. The usual bear is not so cute."

It's like "Do you like playing football?"

"Like it!"

Shen Qin's face looked a little better: "The career of an athlete is not long, you still have to go to school, otherwise you will be in trouble after you retire, listen to me, you have to go to university."

"Baseball players have a long career, many in their thirties and forties. I pay special attention to the maintenance of this area. Don't worry. Those who can't go to college now have to wait until they retire."

Shen Qin didn't mean that people should go to study now, he just hoped that the other party would have this idea in his heart, don't think that young people can make money now, just muddle along.

Xi Chuan was very happy. He didn't expect that the meeting would be like this today.He always thought that Shen Qin would treat him violently and contemptuously, but he turned out to be worried about his future.

What the hell is that [-] salary?Obviously it is [-] plus after tax.

I couldn't help but whistled, I will earn more in the future!
Is it possible now... "That house..."

"Shh! Don't mention this!" Shen Qin felt a little helpless, he didn't want to talk about the popularity of this house, the new things or the car right now.

A poor man who also came out of that family?What else did you say?

……

Brothers have a very magical mutual relationship. The mutual devotion of the two parties has changed from a small piece of candy and blowing in childhood to the current house and delicious meals, but the strange thing is that there is no strangeness.

"You were so good-looking when you were young." Shen Qin misses it a bit. In fact, even though he was very young at that time, he had a deep impression of that family and Xi Chuan. After all, Xi Chuan's dolls also secretly stuffed photos , This was taken on the day of the adoption.

The more you watch it, the more you will remember it!

At that time, Nishikawa was fair and tender, with big eyes and a high nose. She was really beautiful. Compared with him, I always felt that I was skinny and out of place, but my two little hands were tightly clasped.

"Why were you nice to me then?"

"Because I heard it." The two huddled together on the same bed, and Xi Chuan leaned closer. Since he started playing, he has long been accustomed to living with dozens of boys every day: "Before I saw you, I've heard it!"

Shen Qin wanted to back away but felt that it was inappropriate, so he wrapped the quilt tightly, and was reluctant to back away: "What do you know about me? No, it's impossible, right?"

"I've heard it many times. They first said they found it! I don't know what they mean, but on the first day they went to see you, they mentioned that they would pick up "him" tomorrow, and the next day I'm going to pick you up, so naturally it's you."

"The first day they quarreled, and what you said was not nice, but the next day they told me that a little brother was coming to the house, and they had to take the initiative to hold him and treat him well! The two points before and after were very contradictory, so I paid special attention to it. down."

"How should I put it~ In fact, the two of them rarely get back together, but because of you, they played the image of a good couple in front of people, but at that time I was young, I didn't know much, and I wasn't able to help You, I'm sorry."

Shen Qin half-shrunk under the quilt, and he received an unnecessary apology: "You are not wrong, I owe you a thank you, so don't say anything."

The exposed half of the face looked rounder, Xi Chuan smiled and poked it: "You don't know anything, so the fault is ours, you, do you have any more?"

This is about scars, Shen Qin shook his head: "It's just a little bit, it's all over."

"have a look?"

"Don't make trouble!"

Xi Chuan is not reluctant, the two live together, and there will be many opportunities to see in the future~ "Don't go to your tutor, the most important thing now is the study, don't worry about the money, anyway, now we are two They are all abandoned children, let's live together well."

Shen Qin was really a little stunned. Generally speaking, shouldn't such words appear in that kind of relationship?Is the person in front of me an EQ idiot?
"Is it okay?" Xi Chuan was also anxious about Shen Qin's EQ, the other party knew what he did, and now he said it so bluntly, do you still want to refuse?
The silly, white and sweet eyes in each other's eyes are wide open~
"say!"

Shen Qin turned over: "All right!"

"That's fine, what are you doing turning around?" Xi Chuan turned the man over: "I can support you."

Shen Qin calculated it, and the annual salary of nearly 60 RMB is of course very high: "Then you can't spend money indiscriminately, and go to school when you don't play golf?"

Xi Chuan was amused, he found that this person was extremely obsessed with letting him study: "I can't do it now, I have to prepare for the season and keep my body within a reasonable range, otherwise it will be difficult to quickly get rid of it when the season starts. status back."

Shen Qin was at a loss, he didn't understand these things at all: "Five months? Keep it up?"

"Yes, I basically have regular self-training, which takes a long time. There is a professional gym downstairs with relatively complete equipment, and there are some small ones at home. These can't be interrupted."

Shen Qin heaved a sigh of relief. The information about the gym at least proved that the location of the house was not chosen only because of his training hospital. The other side also considered him, so the credibility of the statement that the house raises popularity can be slightly improved?
"Then are you going to play when you go back?"

"No, our major league is like this. Spring training will be held in the middle and late February, so that the players can slowly increase their intensity and get into the state. Wait until the first week of April to start the game until the beginning of October. If there is a season The playoffs will be delayed until the end of October.”

Shen Qin didn't understand at all: "What does the big, big alliance mean?"

"The four major American sports, NFL football, MLB baseball, NBA basketball and NHL ice hockey."

Shen Qin felt that he wanted to swear...
