King of shooting guards

Chapter 129 Small gathering
Six people walked along the zebra crossing.The people and cars coming and going were still in a hurry, and they paid almost no attention to anything other than not to bump into people. They just wanted to move forward quickly, probably in a hurry to go home for dinner or pick up their children from school.Fortunately, the drivers who pass this intersection are basically more car-oriented.

"How far do we take?" Sima Shenji stared at the stop sign.

"Route 126," Yan Kuan pointed at the top of the back of the stop sign, "We are on Heyuan [-]nd Road now, just take the Renhe Shopping Center, and we will be there in four stops."

"Oh, that's not too far away, probably about 15 minutes at most." Sima Shenji turned his ankle.

"That's not necessarily true, maybe there will be a traffic jam." Li Changgeng pressed his temple.

"How often does this car come?" Nong Guang looked at the traffic.

"About six or seven minutes." Yan Kuan said.

"Ah—" Sima Shenji bent down to pinch his ankle, "I suddenly feel pain in my leg."

"Shenji, you may still need to practice more physical strength and confrontation ability," Yan Kuan said, "Also, the most important thing is to control the number of fouls as much as possible."

"Isn't this contradictory?" Sima Shenji asked.

"Generally speaking, there is no contradiction. Strengthening the confrontation ability and controlling the number of fouls are two different things," Yan Kuan pressed the stop sign with one hand.

"Hey, here comes the car!" Nong Guang shouted.

A silver-gray No. 126 road slowly stopped in front of the stop sign.

"Get in the car!" Yan Kuan waved.

"Ding--" "Dang--" "Ding--" "Dang--" Six people lined up and got into the car, one by one.The driver was a big fat man. He stared at this group of domineering people, wiped his sweat silently, pressed the switch, closed the door, and started the car.

There were just five seats left in the car, which happened to be tightly packed together.

"Sit down, I'll stand." Yan Kuan tightened the pull ring on the roof.

"Hey, how can you stand, you sit, I stand." Sima Shenji pulled Yan Kuan into his seat.

"Aren't your legs hurting? Sit down." Yan Kuan pressed Sima Shenji's shoulders and pushed him down on the seat.

"Let me stand," Yan Kuan pulled the pull ring, "I will do my least effort today."

"Okay, Li Changgeng, you sit inside, I'll sit outside." Yan Kuan said to Li Changgeng.

"En." Li Changgeng nodded, and sat on the window seat.Yan Kuan sat next to Li Changgeng.Everyone else sat down too.

"I think we need to practice more speed and reaction ability, as well as the ability to fight." Yan Kuan said.

"Yes, I think so too. Our defense against Li Wensheng today is very bad. As long as he is in good condition, he can cause some damage to us." Nong Guang agreed.

"To put it bluntly, isn't it my problem?" Sima Shenji continued to rub his ankle, "Don't worry, I will practice hard."

"Oh, Shenji, take it easy," Yan Kuan patted Sima Shenji's shoulder with a smile, "No one said it was your problem, Nong Guang just gave an example."

"Why do you have to use me as an example?" Sima Shenji was a little dissatisfied.

"What do you care about?" Li Changgeng closed his eyes and rested his mind.

"Okay, I don't care, okay?" Sima Shenji put his arms on the seat in front of him.

.......
Everyone looked out the window.I saw a city management law enforcement vehicle parked at the door of an office building across the road, and two uniformed city management officers were tug-of-war with a man who sold roasted sweet potatoes, but what he pulled was not the rope, but the stove where the man sold the sweet potatoes.The passers-by stopped to watch one after another, most of them hid far away, but no one dared to speak out, let alone stepped forward to dissuade them.

"Don't look at this," Yan Kuan was the first to turn his head back, "This is also one of the characteristics of our country."

"There is really nothing to look at," Li Changgeng also turned his head, "Before caring about others, let's do our own thing well. Only when we are strong can we help others better."

"Are we going to be able to support ourselves when we become professional players?" Nong Guang asked hopefully.

"It depends on how far you can do it," Yan Kuan said, "Except for those top athletes, most athletes' lives are not much easier than others. This is just a popular sport such as basketball and football. If you Practice baseball, handball, hockey, I guess you are basically the same as the baked sweet potato. Of course, I am not hitting you, but the fact is that. Now many retired athletes can hardly survive without state subsidies."

"It's not just that, the current professional players basically play until they are around 40 years old, up to 43 or four years old. Some are even shorter." Nong Guang added.

"Then what will the players do after they retire? Are they all coaches?" Sima Shenji asked.

"Some are coaches, some are consultants, and some are in the management of the team. Very few wealthy top players will be small shareholders of the team, or even the big boss. But there are still many players who can only change careers after retirement. After changing careers, they basically did not do well, and some even looked down on illness. I don’t know about other countries, but at least it is like this in China.” Yan Kuan spread his hands.

"Hey, yes, I heard that a world champion went to give people a bath after retiring, but it doesn't seem to be playing basketball..." Yan Kuan rubbed his temples, "I forgot what event, and I can't remember the name , but it must have happened, I remember it right."

"All in all, from a more realistic point of view, if you really want to be a professional player, you must first develop the ability to earn enough money to spend until you are 30 years old before the age of 90. This is what one of my god-brothers taught me. " said Yan Kuan.

"It sounds like it's too difficult, right?" Sima Shenji expressed his embarrassment.

"Don't be embarrassed, just do what you can," Yan Kuan patted Sima Shenji on the shoulder, "There are many roads in this world that you can't turn back after you walk on them. Since you have to make a choice, never regret it. "

"Well, what you said is indeed very reasonable!" Li Changgeng babbled.

"Renhe Shopping Center is here. Passengers who need to transfer to No. 34 or No. 202, please get off at this station..." The machine on the car rang a reminder.

"Here we are, everyone, get ready!" Yan Kuan stood up.

The car stopped.Six people stood up one after another and got out of the car. "Where is there a place to eat here?" Li Changgeng looked left and right, "It seems that there are cosmetics here, right?"

"Take the elevator," Yan Kuan pointed to the elevator not far away, "Go up to the seventh floor. The food court is there."

Six people walked towards the elevator.

"Di--" Elevator No. [-] was just full of people, and there was an overloaded protest sound.A tall man came down.Elevator #[-] closed its doors and began to ascend.Elevator No. [-] stopped at the top floor—that is, the eighth floor—and remained motionless.

"My god, why are you reciting it like this!" Sima Shenji muttered.

More and more people gathered in front of the elevator entrance, and soon surrounded the elevator entrance.

"Di—" The No. [-] elevator came down.

Six people poured into the elevator with the flow of people, filling the elevator.The elevator closed its doors and began to ascend.

"Di—" The elevator stopped on the second floor.

"Excuse me, please let me go." A young mother came up with a baby carriage.The baby in the car is very well-behaved, neither crying nor fussing.

Li Changgeng happened to be standing near the door, so he could only move to the side, trying to get closer to the bald man smoking a cigarette behind him.Li Changgeng frowned and turned his head to the other side.

"Di—" The elevator stopped on the fourth floor again.There was no one at the door.The middle-aged woman standing next to the button pressed the close button.

"Di—" The elevator stopped on the sixth floor again.The young mother pushed the stroller out, and several other people went out, and then two more people came in carrying a large cardboard box with "Warm Brand Microwave Oven" written on it.

"Is there a mistake, bring this to dinner?" Sima Shenji rolled his eyes.

Yan Kuan looked at Sima Shenji and at the big cardboard box, but said nothing.

"Di—" The elevator finally reached the seventh floor.Six people walked out of the elevator door one by one.

"Is there a mistake, bring this to dinner?" Sima Shenji rolled his eyes.

Yan Kuan looked at Sima Shenji and at the big cardboard box, but said nothing.

"Di—" The elevator finally reached the seventh floor.Six people walked out of the elevator door one by one.

Facing the elevator door is a Japanese food stall, and the waiters are constantly applying oden sauce.Next to it is a ramen stall, the ramen master is shaking the dough, and the aroma of the bone broth is incomparably enticing.The roasted duck rice stall at the diagonal corner is also overcrowded, and the guys are almost overwhelmed.

"Is there anyone who sells steamed buns?" Li Changgeng turned his head around several times but couldn't find it.

"Go to the left," Yan Kuan pointed to the left, "it's next to the stand selling freshly squeezed juice."

The six of them walked to the left together.

The stall of this Xiaolongbao shop is not too big. The signboard says "Luoji Xiaolongbao" in five big and powerful characters. There is a cash register on the left side of the counter, the introduction of special dishes on the right side, and the menu in the middle. There were various hors d'oeuvres in the glass cabinets below, but there was no other decoration, which looked simple and neat.

"Nong Guang and I are going to line up to get the number, you guys find a place to sit down. What do you eat?" Yan Kuan asked.

"Hmm...beef." Yan Kuan raised his eyes.

"I want beef too." Sima Shenji said loudly.

"I want mushrooms." Li Changgeng said.

"I can do anything... but I prefer crab roe." Li Changgeng said.

"Then what to drink?" Nong Guang asked.

"Porridge is fine," Li Changgeng said.

"Okay, got it." Yan Kuan and Nong Guang stood at the end of the line to line up.It took two to three minutes to arrive.

"Hello, what would you like to eat?" The waiter was very enthusiastic.

"Six drawers of beef, two drawers of pork, two drawers of mushrooms, two drawers of crab roe, six bowls of eight-treasure rice porridge, and..." Yan Kuan looked down at the side dishes in the cupboard, "Here comes a celery peanut, A tofu skin, and..."

"How about your tea eggs?" Nong Guang asked the waiter.

"Our tea eggs here are pretty good, why don't you try two?" The waiter smiled not from the bottom of his heart.

"Hey, Nong Guang, it's almost night, do you still eat tea eggs?" Yan Kuan asked Nong Guang.

"I want to try it. I haven't eaten eggs for several days, and I feel a little lacking in protein." Nong Guang said.

"Haha, okay, then two more tea eggs. What else do you want?" Yan Kuan asked.

"Is this enough?" Nong Guang thought it was enough.

"Okay, let's order these first." Yan Kuan said to the waiter.

"Okay, six drawers of beef stuffed buns, two drawers of pork stuffed buns, two drawers of mushroom stuffed buns, two drawers of crab stuffed buns, six bowls of eight-treasure porridge, one plate of celery and peanuts, one plate of tofu skin, and two cups of tea. Eggs, a total of 110 three pieces."

"It's not cheap." Yan Kuan took out the special card for Food City, "I still have about 200 yuan in this card, and I'll buy this meal today."

"Hey, captain, how can I let you invite them all, how about I give you fifty?" Nong Guang also took out 50 yuan from his wallet.

"No, can't I invite you for a meal?" Yan Kuan handed the card to the waiter, "Swipe it."

"Oh, take it, Captain, how can you keep asking for it?" Nong Guang stuffed the money into Yan Kuan's hand, "I heard from Shenji that you invited me for the dinner a few days ago, we can't keep taking you Cheap, right?"

"Hahaha! OK!" Yan Kuan smiled.

"This is your number. The steamed stuffed bun will be ready soon. Please wait another 10 minutes." The waiter picked up a tray, filled it with tea eggs, peanuts and tofu skin, put the numbered paper on it, and handed it to Yan Kuan .

"Nong Guang, I'll go ahead first." Yan Kuan said.

"Yeah." Nong Guang nodded.

"Can we order some side dishes?" Sima Shenji stared at the two plates of side dishes.

"Everyone will have two drawers of buns later, isn't that enough for you?" Yan Kuan asked.

"Captain, I can't eat two drawers." Li Changgeng said while looking at his phone.

"You should eat more, grow meat," Yan Kuan picked up a napkin to wipe his hands, "Your current physique is not good, and your confrontation ability is not good. In the future, it will be easy to suffer when you match up with a good-looking defender. Also, you have to Practice more strength."

"Yes, you have to go to the gym to get that... big pimp!" Sima Shenji gesticulated and booed.

"Fuck you, you're just a pimp!" Sima Shenji pushed Li Changgeng, "That's called a fitness machine! Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"

"Oh, it's just a joke!" Sima Shenji smiled.
