Chapter 60: Contract Finalization
******
The next day was sunny and clear.
The Iberian Peninsula is beginning to feel warm, and the whole Valencia region is filled with orange scents, as if there is a hint of happiness in them.
While the media across Valencia were singing the praises of Ranieri as he led the team to three consecutive wins this season, Papa. Adrian's wife got up early, made her husband a delicious breakfast, and then checked his briefcase for him, for fear that he would forget what he had brought with him, knowing that he was going to the Valencia Club today on business.
What a virtuous and virtuous wife.
Every time Adrian wants to go to work, his wife will always prepare a loving breakfast for him, and he has been married for more than ten years, and it has not changed.
Before leaving the door, his wife kissed him on the lips, "Come on!" Husband!! ”
Adrian lightly covered his wife's face with both hands, stood on tiptoe, and kissed her on the forehead.
This scene has happened countless times, and Adrian can't remember exactly how many times, this has been like this since the day they got married.
In this way, Adrian, with his wife's blessing, happily drove his Volkswagen towards the building where the Valencia Club was in high office.

"Hey, hello - I'm Papa. Adrian, Ai's agent, has made an appointment before, thank you" Adrian politely took out his business card and handed it to the beautiful front desk.
"Wait a minute." The beautiful woman at the front desk hurriedly opened the memo and looked at it, and there was indeed this person, so she hurriedly dialed the office hotline of Mary, the chairman's secretary.
"Hello Miss Mary, Ai's agent, Mr. Adrian, has arrived."
The phone on the other end of the line was not long in coming, "Well, okay, you bring him to the conference room!" ”
After the beautiful woman hung up the phone at the front desk, she hurriedly took Adrian, who was looking around, to the conference room where the high-level of the Valencia Club usually meets.
Five minutes later, Soler, accompanied by his secretary, Mary, also arrived in the conference room.
"Hello, Mr. Adrian, I'm Soler, the president of Valencia FC." A majestic voice came from behind Adrian.
Adrian hurriedly supported the stool, stood up, and stretched out his right hand, "Hello, hello! Mr. Soler. ”
For Soler, Adrian is also an old rival, his player Navarro is Valencia, and the two communicated half a year ago because of Navarro's contract renewal.
"Congratulations! Mr. Adrian, it's gratifying to be able to sign such a young and promising player as Ai, haha. Soler shook Adrian's hand and said with a smile.
Adrian was accustomed to seeing this kind of expression of the merchant, and he also smiled and said, "Where is it, it's just a fluke, where it can be compared with your achievements, everyone in Valencia knows it!" Haha." After the compliment, he didn't say anything else, and went straight to the point, "I'm here this time very simply, I'm here for Ai's new contract." ”
"Okay, fast talk!" Soler gave Mary a look, then walked to the main seat of the conference room and sat down.
Just as Soler sat down, Mary also handed Adrian a contract, "Mr. Adrian, this is Ai's latest contract. ”
Adrian was not polite, took the contract from Mary's hand with a smile and sat down directly, and began to look seriously.
A minute later, Adrian gently placed the contract on the table, and then pushed the contract in front of Soler, "Mr. Soler, I can't see the sincerity of your club for this contract!" The weekly salary of 8,000 euros is completely unsuitable for a player who has scored eight goals and four assists in five games! ””
Soler was not annoyed, took the coffee handed over by Mary, and after enjoying it beautifully, the whole person sat up straight, looked at Adrian and said slowly with a smile, "Oh? So what do you think is sincerity? ”
Adrian scolded the old fox secretly, stretched out three fingers, and then said slowly, "At least 30,000 euros!" ”
Hearing this weekly salary, Soler immediately slapped the table, "Impossible!" The average salary of the team is not at this price!! ”
Soler wasn't lying, the team's highest-paid captain Ruben is now the highest-paid team. Baraja, with a weekly salary of only 50,000 euros, is completely impossible for Valencia, who is still preparing to build the new Mestalla Stadium! And for a young player, Soler is completely unacceptable in the shopping mall, although the young player is full of vitality and infinite possibilities, it also represents variables and instability.
Adrian looked at Soler with a smile, "Mr. Chairman, isn't this a negotiation, how much do you think the weekly salary is worth Ai?" ”
These words almost made Soler roll his eyes and faint.
Is this what you are learning and selling?
Then, Soler held out a finger, and Adrian asked tentatively, "Ten thousand euros??" After Soler nodded, he hurriedly shouted loudly, "This can't be!! The club doesn't have to spend a single peseta to have such a great young player, at least 25,000 euros a week!! ”
After hearing this, Soler hurriedly shook his head, "This number is impossible!" I'm still saying that, 10,000 euros!! ”
In this way, the two sides reached an impasse in negotiations.
At this time, Mary, the secretary, poured a cup of coffee for each of them and said sweetly, "Use it slowly." ”
Adrian's head was running at high speed while he was drinking coffee.
"Mr. President, the weekly salary is 20,000 euros, the goal bonus is 12,000 euros, the assist bonus is 8,000 euros, and the signing fee is 100,000, how about it?" Adrian looked at Soler and said with a smile.
Soler listened and drank coffee at the same time, and then seemed to have made a very important decision, "A maximum salary of fifteen thousand euros a week!" ”
Adrian saw that Soler made a concession, and thought about it, he should also make appropriate concessions, so he said: "It is not impossible to promise a weekly salary of 15,000, but five years is too long, three years at most!" ”
Solers thought for a moment, "Four years! Three years is too little! Four years!! ”
Adrian, of course, would not agree to four years, and hurriedly affirmed: "The weekly salary is 15,000 euros, the goal bonus is 10,000 euros, the assist is 5,000 euros, the signing fee is 100,000 euros, and the contract is signed for three years, don't forget that he has a contract with the club's youth team, which can be easily bought out!" Otherwise," and then the voice changed, "I'm sure other clubs would be interested in getting a young player with such potential for almost free!" ”
Adrian's last words deeply pierced Soler's heart. Soler groaned, and after a while, he looked up at Adrian, "You won!" I promise your conditions!! ”
"Happy working together!"
Adrian raised his coffee cup very gentlemanly, motioned to Soler, and drank the cold coffee in one gulp.
"Happy working together!"
After congratulating each other, the two discussed that after the next round of the league, they would hold a press conference for Iroh to announce the signing news.
Neither of them has any opinion on this.
Later, Soler excused himself to be busy with work, so he asked Mary to send Adrian out of the conference room.
When the door to the conference room closed, Soler stood up and walked to the window. Because the club's high-rise office building is not far from the training ground, the office building can clearly see the team's training ground. So Soler could look out the window at one of the running figures in the training ground and mutter, "Young man, I hope you don't let my investment go down the drain." ”
After lamenting, Soler began to worry about the funds for the team's construction of a new stadium.
******
Since his debut, Iroh has played so well on the pitch that there are always reporters scattered on the periphery of the team's training base.
Although the team has finished training at the moment and many players have left the training base, there are still a number of reporters who have not left because they are all waiting for someone. If you look at it more clearly, it's basically all yellow-skinned, black-eyed, black-haired Asian faces waiting for someone.
After a day of training and additional training, the three of them took a comfortable shower in the locker room and came to the gate of the base.
"What do you think about Numancia against in the next round? Smecta"
When they arrived at the door, they were taken aback by the sudden appearance of the microphone. Albiol clenched his fists instantly.
"Huh?" Ailuo, who reacted, looked at the Korean in front of him suspiciously, "What did you say??" ”
Regarding Ailuo's doubts, a reporter from South Korea said in Chinese: "Ni Hao, the horizontal type is from the Republic of Korea, oh called Li Haoming, may I ask what the Ni team thinks about the next round of face and numancia closed?" ”
Ai Luo listened to this Chinese, very painful, so simply switched to the Korean state, said in Korean: "I know a little Korean, you speak Korean directly!" ”
Li Haoming was immediately stunned, this Korean language is too standard, right? ?
The Chinese reporter not far away was also stunned, is he Chinese? Why is Korean so good?
Ai Luo saw Li Haoming's expression in his eyes, and knew that he was surprised, and explained indiscriminately: "I have a distant relative who is Korean and taught me when I was a child. ”
"I learned it when I was a child, and I spoke it so fluently when I grew up?" Of course, Li Haoming didn't say this, but said secretly in his heart.
After Li Haoming coughed, he moistened his throat, took out a notebook and pen, and asked, "What do you think of Manukia's Korean player Lee Tianxiu?" ”
Li Tianxiu??
Iroh rolled his eyes, searching for information about this person in his mind, and after a while, he said casually, "Who is this?" Haven't heard of it. ”
The South Korean journalist who listened to this almost had a cigarette in his head, what is this called? This is a famous big star in the Republic of Korea, okay?
Bumpkin!!
South Korean reporter Lee Haoming immediately left angrily.
This reaction made Iroh stunned.
What's wrong with this?
The domestic reporter standing not far in front of him had a straight chest and a work card hanging on his chest, and Ai Luo could see 'Football News Reporter: Li Mengqi' from the work card on his chest
A nice name.
"The reporter who interviewed you just now is a Korean, and the Lee Tian-so he asked you about is one of the most talented players in South Korea, and now he is playing for the Numancia club, and the South Korean can be said to be the biggest arrogant nation in the world, and he is very angry when he hears your answer, and he thinks that you look down on Korean players," Li Mengqi stood aside and explained to Elo.
When you hear this explanation, it is clear at a glance.
Instinctively raised to see, the fine black slightly curly long hair draped over the shoulders, big eyes, small red lips and white skin, a pair of small dimples evenly distributed on both sides of the cheeks, clear and bright pupils, curved willow eyebrows, long eyelashes, fair and flawless skin revealing a faint red powder, thin lips like rose petals delicate and delicate.
"Holy! Beauty!! "Since this is said in Spanish, so subsequently
