There is no doubt that Zhao Xu is a fan of Cuju. You must know that Cuju is much more popular in the palace than in the public. Ministers such as Sima Guang and Wang Anshi also play Cuju. Zhao Xu has seen Cuju. There are quite a few competitions.
However, this first football game immediately rose to the top of his mind.
This also shows that in Zhao Xu's heart, this football is more exciting than Cuju.
The great scholar Zhang Sheng said: "Although this football match is full of excitement, it is full of foul language and barbaric actions inside and outside the field. It is not suitable for the public!"
Zhao Xu glanced at him and said with a smile: "Xueshi Zhang's words are wrong. How can the two armies be polite when they are facing each other? As Zhang San said, this competitive game should be a little bloody, so that it will be exciting."
The reason why he admired football so much also contained his subconscious desire to change the entire social atmosphere, because he longed for foreign wars, so he still had to be a little bloody.
The speaker is intentional, and the listener is more intentional.
Two armies confronting each other?
The expressions of all the scholar-bureaucrats changed.
This little emperor is really going to cause trouble!
In fact, since Zhao Xu came to the throne, the ministers have been wary of this little emperor, because as far as the Song Dynasty was concerned, the use of foreign troops was really a very cautious issue, especially after the Chanyuan Alliance, many ministers didn't think much about it. Go to war and destroy the status quo.
Of course, the war with Xixia is another matter.
Zhang Fei, the instigator, stood aside and observed the expressions of the ministers. In fact, he could understand that a war could affect the whole body, so he must consider it carefully, especially when fighting the Liao Kingdom. Once the front line lost, , the next step may be the defense of Bianjing, because the middle is completely undefendable, and the risk is too great.
The key at present is that Zhang Fei believes that time is on the side of the Song Dynasty.
Queen Mother Cao naturally knew her grandson well. When she saw that this kid seemed a little distracted, she hurriedly said: "Ouch! After watching this game, it's really tiring."
Zhao Xu was startled, knowing the intention of Empress Dowager Cao, but he actually said that to inoculate the ministers. He bowed and said, "My eldest lady, my grandson will send you back to rest right now."
Queen Mother Cao nodded.
A group of ministers quickly stood up to see him off.
This ends this topic.
Zhao Xu helped Empress Dowager Cao out and asked, "What do you think of this competition?"
Empress Dowager Cao saw that her grandson was still unfinished, so she agreed with him: "Compared with Cuju, it is indeed a different kind of fun, but it is very tiring to watch. Haha."
These words were not all in agreement, but she felt an unprecedented sense of excitement and tension from them.
The Cuju game is actually more similar to volleyball, but it lacks the smash of volleyball. After all, the eye is on the top of the head, so you can't use hard force, you can only use clever force, which makes the whole game lack of aggression. Imagine that a volleyball player uses all kinds of tricks in his own half, but in the end he just passes the ball to the opposite side.
At most, the moment you enter the cave, you feel a little nervous.
Although it is pleasing to the eye,... it can never achieve true gaochao.
Therefore, watching a Cuju game cannot be as exciting as watching a football game.
This can also be seen from the emotions of the audience.
draw!
There's actually a draw?
In such an exciting game, if there is no winner, are you sure you can still walk out of the stadium?
And most of the audience supports the guards. When they see the frustration of the guards and the joy of the police players, they feel as uncomfortable as eating shit.
Therefore, the audience invariably made deafening boos and yells.
Strong call for overtime.
However, as early as when overtime and penalty kicks were introduced in the newspaper, it was already stated that this charity match will not include penalty kicks and overtime.
Amid the boos, the players from the police station put their arms around each other and left the court happily. They discussed with each other where to go to play tonight and eat some sea cucumbers to replenish their physical fitness.
After all, there are two rich men in their team, Cao Dongdong and Ma Xiaoyi!
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
The players guarding the horse were frustrated and unable to leave. In just half a stick of incense, they lost their generous bonus.
In fact, they can completely avoid being counterattacked by the opponent.
Heaven and hell are so close.
"Zhang San!"
After Zhao Xu, Empress Dowager Cao and a group of scholar-bureaucrats left, Wang Chao suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Fei, his eyes as wide as bells.
Cao Ping did not hesitate to give in, and blocked him in the middle, "Ma Shuai, you can't afford to lose, can you?"
Wang Chao's expression suddenly changed, and he laughed and said: "We didn't lose. Didn't you see that it was a draw? Come on, I want to discuss with Zhang San about forming a team and renting a venue."
This passion is only temporary, money is the eternal truth.
If you have money, you can play with passion in different ways.
Now Zhang Fei is just a piece of cake in the eyes of Wang Chao. How can he be willing to beat and scold him, and even coax him?
The third government office is the most expensive department, and it is also the department most short of money. It usually tries every means to make extra money.
After all, hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops need to be extremely cautious.
Cao Ping and Zhang Fei looked at each other, then smiled and said, "Then let's sit down and talk in detail."
"Talk in detail! Talk in detail!"
Wang Chao was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth.
...
As the players left one after another, the audience also knew that there was no hope for the playoffs. Everyone left Jucheng with unsatisfied feelings and complained to each other.
It's really painful and happy at the same time.
"Although this draw is unpleasant, I have to say that this football match is much more exciting than that Cuju match."
"Who said that."
"What's wrong with your throat?"
"Yes! Why is my voice hoarse?"
"When you watch a Cuju competition, you never make your voice hoarse."
...
"It's really unreasonable. That Zhang San is cheating. If we kick him out, Guard Ma will definitely win."
"If you can't win within the stipulated time, then you can't win. What's the use of saying that."
"Are you crazy? You actually support the police force?"
"I'm just discussing the matter, and I can't say who I support."
"Don't forget, we all bet on the guard's horse to win. Now it's a draw. The guard's horse concedes half, so we've lost everything!"
"Yes! My money... Ouch... a fake match, this must be a fake match, no, we have to go to them to ask for an explanation. If there is overtime, the Guards Horse will definitely win."
...
However, there was still a group of people sitting in silence.
who I am?
Where am I?
What just happened?
Chen Maoqian, Fan Yong and other major donors looked at each other with confusion on their faces.
Now they were shouting so loud that they were almost speechless, and Ma Tianhao relied on his relationship with relatives and friends to follow Cao Dongdong and Ma Xiaoyi to the celebration banquet.
Does it look good or not?
how so?
This situation was something they never expected. They had also watched the practice matches, but they felt that it was completely different from this match.
It makes people passionate, which is something that Cuju competition cannot give.
After a while, Chen Maoqian slowly turned his head and said in a hoarse voice, "Brother Fan, this... this deal... we can't let Zhang San snatch it away!"
Fan Yong nodded and said: "That's right! It's absolutely impossible for him to monopolize this business. Now he's spending money from our charity!"
At this point, they also know that this football game is definitely worth investing in, after all, this is their personal experience.
"That's right! Zhang San! Where is Zhang San?"
They all looked around and started looking for Zhang Fei all over the world.
At this time, Zhang Fei was sitting in the shed above discussing the football league with Cao Ping, Wang Chao and other generals.
"Ma Shuai, in fact, there are certain things to do when renting a school ground. If it is done well, the profit earned by Sanya is not just the rental fee."
"how do I say this?"
Ma Shuai's eyes lit up and he asked anxiously.
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "There is also the store front fee, which may even become a big deal."
"Shop fee?" Wang Chao was full of doubts when he heard this. There are no shops in this school!
Zhang Fei nodded and raised his head outside, "Does Ma Shuai think these viewers will go home and sleep immediately?"
Wang Chao suddenly realized, "I understand, I understand."
Zhang Fei said: "So Sanya can try its best to provide us with some relatively remote school grounds. If it is here, there are many restaurants outside Ju City, and it is impossible for us to get the pie. But if it is in a remote place, Sanya will Some shops can be built outside the stadium and rented out to businessmen.”
How much does this ticket cost?
Wang Chao didn't actually have a clue, but if it was a store lease, he knew it. The money was really quite a lot. He said hehe, "I understand! I understand! I know what to do."
Zhang Fei added: "We will take about 30% of the profits from this part."
Wang Chao's expression changed again, "Why do you take profits from it?"
Zhang Fei replied: "Because we can decide where to play."
"....!"
Wang Chao frowned, "Do you care about this little money?"
Zhang Fei said: "Most of this money will be used to reward each team, as well as to maintain the venue and purchase game balls. Wait. This money will still be used for you."
Talking about this matter is very complicated.
Wang Chao couldn't digest it for a while. He couldn't understand the complicated interests, but he understood that the charity would dominate the entire game.
At the moment, they only talked about it in general, and the details had to be discussed in detail.
...
The members of the police department have already gone out for a walk.
But the players guarding Ma were still sitting in the lounge, fidgeting. To put it more seriously, they were just waiting for defeat.
After all, Wang Chao had already spoken harsh words before, but now that the game was a draw, they didn't know what they were going to face.
After waiting for a long time, Wang Chao came late, belching wine.
"Ma...handsome?"
None of the players dared to look directly at Wang Chao.
"belch...."
Wang Chao let out a belch and glanced around with confused eyes, "Everyone played well and did not disgrace our guards. Although it was a draw, the audience knows that we are stronger. We will find a better restaurant later. , have a good celebration, and you won’t be short of bonuses.”
After hearing this, the players couldn't help but be overjoyed.
The ups and downs of this life are really exciting.
He quickly clasped his fists and thanked her profusely.
"Ha ha!"
Wang Chao smiled happily and said: "It doesn't matter, the bonus will only increase in the future."
These players are now his cash cows, how can they be treated poorly?
...
"Third brother, come back, we have a lot of guests here just now."
Niu Beiqing glanced inside with his big eyes.
"Many guests?"
Zhang Fei was slightly startled.
Niu Beiqing nodded and said, "It's Yuan Chen and the others."
"This group of profiteers!"
Zhang Fei cursed, then pretended to be tired and walked in.
"Sanlang is back!"
"Saburo, that game just now was really exciting and breathtaking."
"This is definitely the most exciting game I've ever seen in my life."
"Yes, yes, I still haven't finished it yet."
"It's a pity that we couldn't tell a winner, which is a bit regretful."
"It's okay, it's okay. This regret will be made up for sooner or later. After all, we are not just competing for this one game. Saburo, are you right?"
...
Chen Maoqian, Fan Yong and others surrounded Zhang Fei, and there was a continuous rainbow of farts.
Zhang Fei, however, showed his exhaustion and didn't even utter a sound. He looked at his nose and his heart with his eyes, and silently came to sit in front of the master's chair. Li Si next to him immediately poured a cup of tea for the third brother.
When everyone saw that there was no feedback from the flattery, their voices became quieter and quieter, and in the end, everyone stood aside with an embarrassed look on their faces.
Zhang Fei put down the tea cup, looked at the rich people standing aside, and said in confusion: "Fellow members, what are you doing standing there? Sit down. Please sit down, please sit down."
"Many...thank you!"
Everyone sat down as instructed, but their expressions still looked a little unnatural.
What made them so arrogant before was that they were against football in various ways, but now they all have swollen faces!
But one good thing about businessmen is that they have no face at all when it comes to money.
Seeing that it was almost done, Zhang Fei suddenly changed his expression and said with a smile: "Don't feel guilty. In fact, this game is for you to watch. Everyone has invested so much money for charity. No one wants to waste it. If Just because of my words, I made you agree to invest so much money, I believe your business will not be so big."
】
Fan Yong breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh! Sanlang, you don't know, your expression just now really scared us to death."
Zhang Fei chuckled: "What? I'm afraid that I will do it alone and not give you a share of the pie."
Fan Yong smiled and said nothing.
Chen Maoqian hurriedly said, "How can it be possible? Sanlang has a heart of a Buddha, and he is doing this football match for charity."
At this point, he changed the topic and said, "Actually, we are all doing good for charities, and we still believe in Saburo."
"Brother Chen makes sense. When we form a council, it is also established in accordance with your contract, Saburo. There is no other meaning."
...
Everyone began to find various reasons to explain their swollen faces.
When it comes to business, Zhang Fei is really not the kind of person who cares about everything. As a businessman, of course peace is the most important thing. In fact, he can't do without these rich people. He added: "Then do you agree now to invest money here?" At the football game."
"Of course...!"
Before this "meaning" was spoken, Fan Yong said again: "I wonder how much money Sanlang plans to invest?"
Zhang Fei said: "I plan to use 500 hectares of land to borrow 100,000 yuan from the Ma family."
"One hundred thousand strings?"
Everyone gasped.
