silent farm

Chapter 185 Good seedlings must be dug as soon as possible

Although Blanca was invited by Anthony, she also came to work.Since we are here for an interview, of course we need to capture as much material as possible.So she didn't watch all the bow and arrow competitions.She also has to go to another place to shoot horse racing events.

The Jilolo people are not good at timing. It was originally estimated that it would take an hour and a half to decide the outcome of the game, but they only took 45 minutes to get it done.The final champion was not Taklolo, whom Li Sheng thought was the most likely, but a 16-year-old kid.Tucloro got No.3.But they seem to be here to play, and no one cares about winning or losing.

Because the competition is as formal as possible, the top three can still get medals, but they are all gold or silver on the copper crossing, which is a very thin layer.During the awards ceremony, Anthony was the guest of honor.It was his reward for his last presiding job on the farm.

When Li Sheng took Tia, who had already celebrated with Tucloro, to leave to watch the football match, he found that Blanca had returned with the photographer.

But he didn't stop, and took Tia on the all-terrain vehicle to watch the football match.

The first game this morning was a game between the Kaboclo people and the farm transport team.Li Sheng wanted to see if the kid who saw the substitute coming off the bench in the last game would play this time.

The players in the transport team not only have the convoy, but also the boats, so they have Chinese and Brazilian locals.Although their cooperation was at the same level as the pastoral team he had seen before, they played more proactively and were not afraid of losing at all.The score on the field said it all, 3:0.And this is just the beginning of the second half.

In this game, he saw that the child was already on the field. Judging from the marks on his body, he should be the starter.

Although he doesn't know football, he can see that the kid is very smart in handling the ball.The kick is very concealed and very accurate. Short and long passes can send the ball to the place where teammates can receive it.

But this game was different from the one he saw last time.This kid is not just defending in the backcourt, but often goes forward and assists.

He watched for a while, and found that Zhang Dingbian was also watching from the sidelines.

He walked over and patted Zhang Dingbian on the shoulder, and said, "What about scouting the enemy's situation?" The security team also organized a team to participate in the competition, mainly Chinese people, Americans prefer basketball.

Zhang Dingbian nodded with a smile and said: "Boss, you are here too. I heard that they are competing, so I came to have a look. I think our opponents should be them." Zhang Dingbian said a little modestly.However, with their tacit understanding and physical fitness, other teams are indeed inferior.

Seeing that he didn't have any worried expression, Li Sheng said, "Are you sure?"

Unexpectedly, Zhang Ding shook his head and said, "Unless we don't follow the rules, none of us can stop that kid. He is very good at dribbling and passing the ball. All we have is strength. Using strength to deal with a kid is a bit embarrassing!"

Li Sheng smiled and said, "Is he really that powerful?"

"Of the three goals they scored, two were assisted by him, and the other was scored by a long-range shot. This little guy is a ghost. The transport team can't do anything about fouling him."

Li Sheng watched for a while, and found that the kid really did what Zhang Dingbian said, he never waited for the opponent to come up to intercept before starting to pass the ball.He can often play two-for-one with his teammates.Even if he falls to the ground due to a collision, he can pass the ball in time.And get the ball where it should go.

Li Sheng nodded and said, "His overall view is very strong."

"He is now the brain of the Caboclo team. I just don't know why he didn't go to a professional team. His skills should be considered relatively good among his peers."

Li Sheng was also quite curious about this.

At this time, the child player they were talking about used a quick upper body shake in the frontcourt to pass two transport team players who rushed up to close the goal. Sticking to the grass, he crossed an arc of more than 20 meters and moved the corner of the goal to get into the goal.

Others may have seen his wonderful movements, but Li Sheng could see more.The kid's upper body swayed really fast, and it was very real.Li Sheng felt that he was not doing a fake move, but because another player from the transportation team blocked his way after his body shook, so he went back to the other side.This reaction ability and body balance ability are terrifying to ordinary people.

What caught Li Sheng's eyes was that his long-range shot was indeed fast. The football crossed the ground very quickly, clinging to the tip of the grass, but never touching the ground.This is the most exciting part of this kick.Lifting the ball out of the air cushion effect is no easy feat.

"Strike!" Both he and Zhang Dingbian couldn't help cheering for the goal.

After the kid scored the goal, he was replaced.Seeing him gasping for breath, Li Sheng was a little worried that there was something wrong with his body, or that his body was not good enough to make it to a professional team.It would be a pity if that was the case.

He thought for a while and said to Zhang Dingbian: "I'll go over and talk to him."

He let Tia watch the game by himself, and he walked over to the child who was sitting on the ground panting and sat down.

The child saw him sitting down, but he held his shoulders when he tried to stand up.

Li Sheng said with a smile on his face, "My name is Li Sheng. What's your name?"

"Hello, sir. I know you. My name is Mariano da Conseco." Mariano was a little shy.It is a bit different from the Brazilian children Li Sheng often sees.Brazilian children are always brave enough to express themselves.

Li Sheng smiled and said: "I just saw your goal. You are great, but why don't you try out for a professional team? Maybe you will become a star."

Mariano's eyes darkened, and he said, "I went to the National Liberation Team in Manaus to try out, but they thought I was too weak. And they didn't like Indians."

Li Sheng knew that the living environment of Indians in Brazil was quite bad.I also checked some information about Indians recently.He learned on the Internet that almost all Brazilian cities do not really treat the Indians who immigrated to the city as citizens.Even Brazilians with Indian roots get annoyed at being recognized as Indians.Indians, in this country that is said to have the most tolerant ethnic atmosphere, are the only ethnic group that is discriminated against.

Li Sheng probably understood why he failed to join a professional team.Although there are Indians in Brazil, the proportion of the population is too small, which is different from countries with a large proportion of Indians such as Bolivia and Peru.Many of the players in those countries are of Indian descent, and Brazil seems to have never had an Indian football star.After all, they can find a lot of good football kids from the slums.No matter how good the Indians are at playing football, they are too lazy to look for them in the forest.

Backward, excluded, and even more backward, this is the tragedy of the Indians.And they were the masters of this land.

Li Sheng wasn't overly sympathetic, if he hadn't had that kind of plan, he wouldn't have cared about this child.But now, the kid helps with his plans: "You like playing football?"

Mariano nodded immediately and said: "I like playing football. But I need a job."

Li Sheng frowned, but immediately let go and asked, "How old are you?"

"Almost fifteen."

Li Sheng thought for a while and said, "Would you like to go to school? I mean, go to school here. I plan to build a football school, so that children who have no money to go to school and like to play football can go to school."

"But I don't have any money." Mariano lowered his head and shook his head.

Li Sheng smiled and said, "What if you don't need money?"

"No money?" Mariano didn't expect Li Sheng to say such a thing.He knew that the only schools that don't use money are schools in the tribe.But few children are willing to go to school all the time, because children also need to make money.

Li Shengxiao nodded with certainty, and said, "Yes, no money is required. Board and lodging can also be included. If you come, I can ask a special coach to train you first. I will give you a monthly subsidy of [-] reais." He is really optimistic about this half-grown child.If it can be cultivated, the greater the investment now, the greater the gain in the future.

"But why?" Free training and money back.And that money is a little more than he went out to work.Such a good thing, Mariano felt, could only come across in a dream.

Li Sheng smiled and said, "Because I like you." He paused and said. "Of course, you need to sign a contract with me. If you play football in the future, your ownership belongs to me. That is, if a team wants to buy you, they need to pay me."

Mariano hesitated and asked, "What if I don't become a professional player?"

Li Sheng nodded and said: "You are very calm. But you don't have to worry about that problem. If you really can't become a player, I just failed to invest. The loss is not big. After all, you only have four years of training at most. To me, it's nothing. Isn't it?"

Mariano felt that what he said seemed to have some truth.Doing business is risky, he still knows it.It's just that he didn't think at this time that Li Sheng would hire him a coach and other expenses.

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Li Sheng smiled and said, "Don't rush to answer me now. Discuss it with your family when you get home. This is my phone number." He took out a business card as he spoke.

"Thank you Mr. Li, I will definitely think about it seriously." Mariano took the business card and held it carefully.

Li Sheng was quite satisfied with his too much, nodded to him, and said, "Then I'll wait for your news."

He went back to Tia.Tia immediately took his hand again and said, "Li, we lost." Even if she didn't know football, she could see that the transport team on the farm was hopeless.

Li Sheng was in a good mood. He held her hand, squeezed it lightly, and said with a smile, "Of course there are wins and losers in the game. Our team is not as strong as them, and it's normal to lose."

Moreover, sometimes losing on the surface is not necessarily a real loss.
