Chapter 142: In Argentina (1)

Rosario, Argentina, where the Messi family lived, and today the Messi family welcomed important guests, Hugo and Sely.

The time has come after Christmas, Trapani after Mazzari took office, finally on the winning track, the current first half of the league has been over, 17 league games, Trapani 10 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, got 34 points, currently in the standings temporarily second, the opponents in the same group of the second league know that this time it is a real wolf.

The three defeats were three consecutive defeats at the beginning, and Mazzarri never allowed his team to lose again, sometimes in poor form, very thrilling, but the team did not lose in the end.

Hugo finally felt that he was a little bored in the team, he thought of going out to play, he thought of Messi, so he took Sailly with him to the warm pampas, to Rosario, to Messi's home.

Messi's family was very happy to see Hugo, and Hugo's arrival without advance notice did not make them unhappy.

The Messi family's house is quite historic, or Jorge. Messi and his father built their own house on this land that belonged to them, and the family also lived together, including his grandparents and grandparents.

Sailly has been here several times, even if Messi's family returned to Argentina, Hugo has not broken contact with them, and Sailly has also been arranged by Hugo to visit them in Argentina from time to time to learn about Messi's condition and development in football.

At Jorge's invitation, Hugo and Selli sat down on the sofa in the living room, and Jorge's family sat around.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Collaney!" Jorge held Hugo's hand and said excitedly, in his eyes, Hugo is the best good person in the world, in addition to giving Messi the best treatment every year, he also directly pays Messi's salary, a salary of 100,000 US dollars, which is enough for Messi to live a good life in Serie A.

Hugo also told Jorge at the beginning, don't do anything about work, just take care of your children with peace of mind, but Jorge is still working after returning to Argentina, but his wife Celia quit her job to focus on taking care of the children at home, they have three sons and a daughter.

"I'm glad to meet you too! Mr. Macy! Hugo smiled, "I beg your pardon, I can't find time to visit you because I have a lot of work!" I'm so happy to see you all living well now! ”

Messi's little sister is still a 5-year-old girl, and when she sees Hugo, she is full of curiosity, and always hides beside Messi and looks at Hugo with her eyes.

Hugo beckoned to her with a smile, the little girl looked at Messi, Messi nodded, motioned her over, the little girl boldly approached Hugo, Hugo took her little hand and asked, "What's your name?!" Little sister! ”

Selly looked at Hugo's expression and wanted to laugh, which looked like a big brother with bad intentions.

"My name is Maria!" The little girl replied crisply.

"Alright, Maria, see what this is?!" Hugo took out a piece of chocolate from his pocket, which he had taken in his hotel room, and had eaten it himself, but now he used it as a tool to tease the child.

Children are easily tempted to eat, so Mary happily took it, peeled it off and ate it, not forgetting to say, "Thank you, uncle!" ”

Hugo immediately blackened, and said to Jorge in a form of grievance: "Do I look old?!" ”

Everyone laughed and gossiped for a while, and Hugo asked Jorge, "I'm going to invite your family to Trapani to see a ball game!" I don't know if you guys have time?! ”

"Thank you for having me, Mr. Collaney! Actually, our family also has Italian ancestry, my great-grandparents immigrated from Italy, and our current family has never been to Italy, and we would love to see it too! Jorge said happily.

"Really?!" Hugo really didn't know such a thing, he rolled his eyes, this is not to say that Messi is also eligible to apply for Italian nationality, anyway, Italy recognizes dual citizenship, as long as there is definite evidence to prove that Messi's ancestors went out from Italy.

"Yes, it's said to have come from Ancona!" Jorge said.

"Mr. Messi, I know Matthias is also playing for Newell's old buddy now, I want to take him to Trapani, what do you think?!" Hugo asked.

Messi's family, all three brothers play, Messi was found with his eldest brother Rodrigo, Rodrigo used to play for Newell's old buddy and was an attacker in the front court, but because of an accident, he has not continued to play football now, and the second brother Matthias is still in the youth echelon of Newell's old buddy.

Jorge immediately said yes.

Hugo did this just to please Messi's family, now a year has passed, under the active treatment, Messi's figure has increased significantly, Hugo feels that it is not a dream for him to play for himself in the future, maybe he can be used in Serie A.

Matthias is four years older than Messi, but he is not a good comrade, he is a bad boy, and there seems to be a lack of discipline on weekdays, Jorge agrees with Hugo's proposal and wants Matthias to change to a new environment.

Matthias was not happy to go to Italy, he looked embarrassed, he didn't have much talent in football, and his old guys in Newell were all soy sauce men.

Hugo knew the details of this guy, and when he saw that he was unwilling, he didn't force it, so he smiled and said: "If you don't want to, I won't force it!" ”

Jorge glared at Matthias, who had clearly said everything for his reticence.

Matthias bowed his head and refused to say anything.

"Mr. Messi, don't blame him! Young kids, it's always tough to leave home! Understandable! Seeing this, Hugo said again.

"I want to go!" Little Messi stood up at this time and said, "I want to play!" ”

"Haha, of course you're more than welcome!" Hugo laughed when he saw this, he was glad that Messi was able to say this, on his own initiative.

He thought for a moment and said, "Leo, you know what?!" You deserve to be the best team in the world, the best team! And now Trapani is obviously not, I would not say that my team is the best team in the world, but in the future I can guarantee that he will be the best team in the world, no team can be better than him! ”

"To be precise, the current Trapani can't compare with Newell's old boy!" Hugo made another comparison, "So you know, what I want to say, I say my team is not worth playing for!" By the time it gets to the First Division, I think I'll be able to get you! ”

Rosario has two teams, one is Rosario Central, the other is Newell's old buddy, Messi's family is a big fan of Newell's old buddy, but Newell's old buddy was only once a champion, and now his strength is very average.

Hugo said that Trapani is inferior to them, and the Messi family has a concept, Jorge. Messi knows that Trapani is only a fourth-tier team in Italy, and it is normal that he is not as good as Newell's old buddy.

Hugo's words once again reflected his optimism about Messi from the side, which made Jorge . Messi is very proud.

"Mr. Coleni, you have done so much for our family! Although you said at the beginning that you fancy Leo's talent and that you want him to play for you, our family is always very grateful to you! Your team isn't the best right now, but I'm sure it can be the best one day! Whether he's the best or not, it's worth playing for Leao! "Jorge. Messi also said.

Hugo expressed his satisfaction and that he liked Jorge. Messi made such a statement.

After the visit to Messi's family, Hugo returned to Buenos Aires, where he and Selly came to Argentina not only to visit Messi, but also to establish more relationships and find more partners.

Another purpose this time is to visit Gustavo, Argentina's biggest human trafficker. Muscati, this person is a descendant of the Italians, most of the continental colonies in South America are generally the sphere of influence of the Spaniards and the Portuguese, so now the descendants of many South American countries are basically from these two countries, but there are also many descendants of Italians, Italy and Spain, Portugal are all Latin countries, in some habits are similar, at the end of the 19th century, Italy from south to north There are many Italians who immigrated to the Pampas.

The Argentine writer Jorge Borges jokingly wrote of his compatriots: "The Argentines are a bunch of Spanish-speaking Italians, and not only that, but they think like the French and try to be British." ”

From the words of the great writer, I know that there are a lot of Italian descendants in Argentina, Hugo saw that Messi's family has a relationship with Italy, and so is Mascati, who he wants to see now, and they are more pure than Messi's family, because their family has been intermarried between Italian descendants for generations, and Messi's family is not, Messi's mother and grandmother are Spaniards of Catalan descent.
