Thanks for the reward of "Death of the Thief"! ——

After winning the league championship, the Millwall team had a two-day holiday, and in the evening, the three captains of the team organized a grand party, inviting all the players to bring their families.

Aldrich went alone to a party that Carter had specially organized for him in the evening, and it looked like a bit of a socialite's upper-class party, with handsome men and beautiful women gathered together, and there was no sign of depravity and indulgence on the surface, but who knows what it would be like in private.

Aldrich stood by the window with a glass of wine and smoked, and Carter was in the same position as him, leaning against the window sill with one arm against him.

"Why didn't you see Evan today?"

Aldridge exhaled smoke and said unabashedly, "I'm avoiding her, something is almost out of control." ”

Carter, a friend at first sight, has known each other for more than a year, Aldridge and him have been able to talk about everything, and they have a heart-to-heart relationship with each other, everyone understands people and is sensible, and the topics between friends remain between friends, which is also the reason why Carter can become a celebrity in the social circle, giving people a feeling of reliability, excellent reputation, and will never stab a knife in the back.

Carter smiled, turned his head to look around the banquet hall, glanced at some beautiful women who frequently looked here, and said with a smile: "You are the prey in the eyes of many people, it seems that the person who finally captured you is Evan." ”

"I don't know what to do, maybe it's just a man's true colors, but I can't hide it, I've been abstinent for almost a year."

Aldrich could feel that there were a lot of strange eyes locked on him, so he came here to smoke.

Carter was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Don't you even have masturbation?" ”

Aldrich shrugged, "That's right." Once every three days. ”

"Only once in three days? Do we bank financial traders once a few days? ”

"Huh?"

"Three times a day! They say the financial markets are too exciting. It's easy to get up and down in a mood. You have to keep your blood pumping all the time, or, just forget everything about it for a short period of relaxation. ”

Aldridge said thoughtfully: "If I had to lead the team every day, and at least two games a day, I would probably have to play three times a day. ”

Carter was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed loudly.

His laughter caught the attention of the others, who were curious about what Carter and Aldrich were talking about, their eyes full of envy.

Even though there were many people present who knew Aldrich. But the relationship is not to a certain extent, and the communication with Aldrich is mostly a formulaic greeting.

Carter looked out the window at the night scene and smiled, "Are you still motivated?" ”

'Yes, but I already feel like my mind isn't entirely on football anymore, or maybe it's not as motivated as it was five years ago.

"If you were to coach the England national team, would you rekindle your passion?"

"Hehe, I guess I don't have a chance."

'Hoddle's national team was average in the qualifiers for the European Championships, he had a lot of pressure on him, as a fan. I don't think he's bullish on him, and England can hardly find a good coach to take over the national team. ”

"It is possible to hire foreign coaches. There are not many good coaches in the world. ”

"Impossible! England, we're talking about England, England that the British people are proud of in their bones, let foreign coaches lead? Hehehe, it's a big joke. ”

Aldrich thought for a moment.

If he remembers correctly, England later hired Christian Eriksen as manager.

Eriksen isn't Englandish, is he?

After thinking about it, he was relieved.

Of course, the historical truth is that way, but the process does not necessarily come naturally.

After living in England for so many years, he should have known that after 2000, no matter how arrogant England is, he can't pretend to be an aristocrat.

There is simply no homegrown coach who can do it, and a truly talented coach like Bobby Robson has declared that he can't do it all over again because he has coached the national team.

Whatever.

It has nothing to do with me.

"What's your plan for the summer? Do you want to travel like last year? ”

"No, I'm going to buy a house in Liverpool, Melanie will have a baby around August, anyway, I should always be with her at this time."

Carter suddenly realized and said, "Oh, I almost forgot, and that's why you're hiding from Evan now?" ”

Aldrich took a sip of wine and nodded: "Well, I don't care what others think of me, but at this time, if I get a lot of beastliness, uh-huh, uh-huh, I will definitely feel guilty afterwards." Thankfully, the season is over with seven days left. ”

"Boys and girls?"

"Boys, two."

"Twins?"

"Hmm."

"Congratulations."

"I wish it was a dragon and phoenix."

Aldrich softened his face as he talked about his soon-to-be-born child.

However, Carter seemed to be deliberately messing with him, and asked, "What about after she gave birth?" ”

Aldrich was silent for a long time and then said: "I don't know what to do, she called me before she came, chatted a little, she will release another record with the other three hot girls to see the market reaction, the child lives in Liverpool, her parents take care of it, I can visit at any time,-, it makes me very unhappy, I feel like a bad father." But I can't bargain with her, and after the end of the day, I must be unhappy, and everyone is unhappy. ”

"If you are a woman, I guess it is the same as her choice, and the child you give birth to will not stay in your own home? You're not going to marry her again. ”

"It's not that I don't want to marry, it's that I'm going to marry a wife, not a lover who goes on a monthly date."

"Heh, who made you and her a star. If you don't talk about that, it will only look like you're going to make you more unhappy, and I don't want to hear you complain all night. BY THE WAY, I HEARD THAT YOUR ELDEST BROTHER HAS MADE A LOT OF GOOD INVESTMENTS IN THE UNITED STATES, HOW MUCH MONEY DID YOUR ELDEST BROTHER INVEST IN GOOGLE, WHICH WAS ESTABLISHED LAST YEAR? ”

Aldridge recalled. Every time I see Barnett. will talk about his career in the United States.

"It's like $500,000. As long as it is related to the Internet and emerging ideas, his company will invest generously, attracting many entrepreneurs to take the initiative to apply for investment. ”

Since Barnay decided on the direction of the company a few years ago, he has been actively investing in targeted investments, and he can only do investments, just like investing in Microsoft. Neither managing the company nor worrying about talent, as long as you invest your money in the right place, the profits will roll in.

BEFORE GOOGLE WAS FOUNDED IN '98, BARNETT INVESTED 500,000, MAYBE TEN YEARS LATER, TWENTY YEARS LATER, IT WILL BECOME MORE THAN 3 BILLION DOLLARS.

Carter suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Three months ago, the first online bank opened for business, do you think this will be the trend of the future?" ”

"Absolutely. Because the Internet will continue to grow and develop, the speed of adoption will be very fast. When people can't do without the computer, can not do without the Internet, they will naturally sit in front of the computer to consume, in fact, our club's souvenir network sales trend reflects this, the difference is only now or with mail order, registered members need to go to the bank to transfer money to the club account, and then provide information to confirm, we will mail the designated goods, another angle, if the registered members can sit in front of the computer directly through the network bank transfer payment, which can not only improve efficiency, but also make people feel simple and relaxed, In fact, many people just give up buying our fan souvenirs because they are too lazy to go to the bank to send money, and we are also waiting, waiting for the maturity of the online banking system, and then find a partner to cooperate. ”

Ka Ting nodded in agreement.

The two chatted casually for more than an hour, and then, before parting, Carter gave Aldridge a bottle of good wine, and Aldridge gave him a jersey signed by all the players on the team.

Aldrich drove home alone.

At the door of the house, he unexpectedly saw Xiao Luo sitting on the stairs in front of the door playing on his mobile phone, Aldrich thought he was texting someone, but he saw that he was playing a very simple mobile phone game, and the score of the game was very high, it seemed that he was a master.

"Boss, I have something to say to you."

Xiao Luo put away his mobile phone and stood up, like washing the moonlight, Xiao Luo's expression was very solemn.

Aldrich was taken aback.

You're not here to tell me you want to transfer, are you?

Aldridge took out the key with a solemn expression to open the door, turned on the light and put the wine that Carter gave him directly on the shoe cabinet by the door, and suddenly felt very bad, because every time a player came to him with an expression like Xiao Luo, it was basically a showdown to transfer.

Xiao Luo sat down, Aldrich also sat in the single sofa, he supported his head with one hand, adjusted his mood and said lightly: "If you have anything to say now." ”

Xiao Luo sat down, turned sideways to face Aldrich, and said in a deep voice: "Boss, I'm sorry, I, we won the league, the FA Cup final opponent is also easy to deal with, I firmly believe that we can still win the FA Cup, but I can't be happy, really, I can't be happy at all, I can hardly sleep, my mind keeps repeating the picture of missing a penalty in Munich, I let the whole team's efforts go to waste, we could have gone to Camp Nou in half a month, we can be the treble, Defending the European Cup, it's all my fault, I"

Speaking of the worst, Xiao Luo choked up for a while.

Aldrich looked shocked.

A false alarm.

Xiao Luo not only didn't come to the showdown to transfer.

Moreover, his words shook Aldridge's body and mind.

It has been more than half a month since the defeat of Munich, and Xiao Luo is still haunted and full of self-blame.

The other party can't come to Aldrich to make a gesture, every word, every word on his face, the sad expression on his face, is from the heart, this Aldrich is very sure.

How strong does this require a sense of ownership?

From youth to first team, Ronaldo has spent three years here, and he has high hopes and ambitions himself.

But maybe carrying too much pressure on him was too much.

Aldrich stared at Xiao Luo silently, not saying a word.

Xiao Luo didn't see Aldrich make a sound for a long time, turned his head to look, but saw Aldrich with a smile in his eyes.

"Chief, you"

"Let me ask you a question, do you know who was the last team in Europe to be called the Great Dynasty?"

Xiao Luo thought for a moment and said, "AC Milan." ”

"Do you know how many titles AC Milan have won in the eight years since Sacchi and Fabio Capello?"

Xiao Luo shook his head.

Aldridge smiled: "16, this is still counting the European Super Cup, Toyota Cup and other trophies that are not worth mentioning in my eyes." How many trophies have Millwall won in the last four years? ”

Xiao Luo began to calculate in his heart.

"13 pcs"

"Don't count the UEFA Super Cup and Toyota Cup, and the Community Shield."

"Eight, there are still FA Cup finals this season that have not been played."

Aldridge leaned forward and looked at Xiao Luo closely, and said with a smile: "Even I can't ask myself anymore, I ask you to win the treble this season, you must defend the European Champions Cup, Ronaldinho, you think too much!" But I was amazed by your dedication to the title, and I have to give you a thumbs up and hope you keep it up until the day you retire. ”

Xiao Luo looked at Aldrich in a daze.

He doesn't understand, he really doesn't understand.

Why is Aldrich not angry at all?

There doesn't even seem to be any loss! (To be continued......)
