Red Rebels

The town of Hitchin is located in the north of London, with a population of just over 30,000. It is a very quaint traditional town in England.

Going north along the country road at the entrance of the town, you can see a large supermarket chain called Sainsbury's on the side of the road. This is the largest and only large supermarket in this town, so the business is always very good.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, the door of the supermarket opened, and the employees who had already prepared inside were all dressed in neat uniforms, and they were already standing in their respective areas, waiting for the guests to come.

The on-site manager of the supermarket is a middle-aged man in his forties, holding a roll call book and patrolling around the store.

In the areas he passed along the way, the service staff all greeted him with awe-inspiring eyes, because the pen in his hand determined their salary today.

The middle-aged man always kept a straight face, expressionless.

When he came to the frozen food section, he stopped suddenly.

"Joel!" the middle-aged man shouted.

Immediately, a young man ran out from the side, first looked around, and suddenly found that there was one person missing in the area he was in charge of, hurried over, and whispered: "Yesterday he went to participate in the Sunday league, and he played all the time. Field, probably on its way now."

The Sunday League is an amateur regional league that plays exclusively on Sundays and can be found all over England.

The middle-aged man nodded, "Win or lose?"

"We won, 5:0, and he knocked off the opponent's striker!" Joel said with a smile.

When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately nodded happily, "Then does he wear a jersey with our supermarket logo on it?"

"Of course, I reminded him!"

The middle-aged man kept nodding, and ticked the pen on the roll, and Joel breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it.

"Wait until he comes to work, you give this to him!" Before leaving, the middle-aged man seemed to think of something, and took out a note in his pocket for a while, with a string of phone numbers written on it.

"Who's calling?" Joel asked.

"I don't know. I heard that it's a football club. You're looking for Dave. You just leave it to him." After speaking, the middle-aged man left, and it was too late to roll the roll.

Joel took the note, looked at the string of numbers carefully, folded it carefully, and put it in the pocket inside his waterproof uniform.

About an hour later, a British young man ran in from the outside. When he entered the store, he looked around furtively. He was relieved.

This young man is very tall, at least 1.90 meters above. The relationship with other people here should be good, at least people kept saying hello to him along the way.

"Dave, what's the matter with you? What time is it?" Joel came out of the freezer with a piece of goods in his arms, and complained immediately when he saw his companion who was changing shoes.

"What? Did the manager scold you?" Dave asked with a smile.

Joel shook his head, "That's not true, but he came to roll call just now."

When Dave heard it, his heart suddenly rose to his throat.

Seeing his appearance, Joel was very happy that he had succeeded in a prank, "But once he heard that you were playing football in the jersey with the store's logo, he let you go."

"Hehe, that's right, I should talk to him about the sponsorship fee another day!" Dave put on his shoes and jumped up, his jumping ability is pretty good.

"Come on, come on, dear brother Joel, let me do this kind of heavy work, you can rest on the side!"

After finishing speaking, Dave took the frozen goods in Joel's hand with one hand, and the heavy goods that Joel was holding so hard just now became very easy in Dave's hands.

"You are such a strong and scary monster!" Joel said with emotion.

As soon as Dave came to work, he was immediately busy in the frozen food section. Just now Joel took care of the unfinished things by himself for a long time, and he finished it in a short while.

"Oh, by the way, Dave, the manager just told me that someone came to see you yesterday." Joel suddenly remembered, and took out the note from his pocket.

"Really? Why didn't I know?" Dave had an expression like you don't want to lie to me.

Joel shook the note in his hand, "You ran early yesterday, and he came at 4:00 pm. At that time, you should be ready to play football. Can you do it yourself?"

Dave shrugged, "Then what do you think he wanted me for?"

"He said he represented a football club and just left a phone number for you to be interested in contacting him."

Upon hearing this, Dave was shocked. After a while, he came over and grabbed the note from Joel's hand.

"Dave, could it be a London team?" Joel was obviously familiar with Dave, knowing that Dave's wish was to become a professional football player.

"Probably not. The teams there look down on us. Do you still remember the team from London that they met in the Sunday league last time? They beat us, but they still played with us on purpose. I I don't like the team there!" Dave still looks aggrieved when he thinks about it.

"It might be a team from another place. Go and call him back. At least he found this place himself. It should be a little sincere!" Joel persuaded.

Dave stared at the note for a while, and finally put the note back in his pocket without expressing his opinion, "Let's do things first, and we'll talk about it after get off work!"

In the Sainsbury supermarket, Dave and Joel are in charge of selling frozen food. The thing is very simple, that is, these frozen things are usually very heavy, and it takes strength to take them in and out.

Joel is the kind of person who is very good at calculating accounts, but he is not good at physical work. On the contrary, Dave is strong and strong, and he is very agile at work. He always helps Joel with his work , Let the latter concentrate on weighing at the front desk.

The business in the supermarket is not very good in the morning, and the first wave of peak hours usually arrives around noon, and all supermarket staff can go to eat in batches only after this wave of peak hours is over.

As usual, Joel went to eat first, then came back to change Dave.

"Hey, Dave, remember to call!" Joel reminded before Dave left.

Dave nodded and walked out of the supermarket with his head down.

There is a telephone booth near the entrance of the supermarket. Dave puts his hands in his pockets. On the left is the note with the phone number on it, and on the right is a coin.

The hesitant Dave slowed down, but finally came to the front of the phone booth.

Taking a deep breath, Dave took out the coin, stuffed it into the phone, and pressed the phone number on the note.

"Hi, hello, Xiao Yu, who is it?" A very magnetic male voice came from the phone.

"Hello, I... I'm Dave Kitson," Dave had just finished speaking, as if he was afraid that the other party would not remember who he was, and added later, "The one from Sainsbury's Supermarket in Hitchin Township staff."

"Oh, hello, Dave!" Xiao Yu on the other end of the phone immediately remembered, "I couldn't find you yesterday, they said you went to play football in other places, I was planning to call me if you didn't call me." , I will come to see you again in a few days!"

"Thank you, I heard you are a scout for a football club?" Dave asked tremblingly, looking very excited.

"It should be considered, I represent the new Manchester United, have you heard of our team? A new team in Manchester!" Xiao Yu asked.

Dave thought for a while, "Is it the new team made up of Manchester United fans?"

"Yes, we participated in the Northwest Division B League last year and won the double crown. This year, we were recommended to the National League by the FA. I would like to ask you, are you interested in playing in our team?"

Dave hesitated. The amateur team Hitchin City from Hitchin town had invited him last year, but he refused because the opponent was also a low-level team in the regional league. I feel that joining this kind of team is better than continuing to be like this, because he now has a good job, and at the same time he can play football with his friends every Sunday.

But once you go to an amateur team, how much money can you get for a part-time contract? Still have to go to training, which will surely cost him his supermarket job.

But the situation is obviously different now, the national league team, the fifth tier league in England.

"Excuse me, is your team a professional team?" Dave asked again.

Xiao Yu smiled, "Last year it was a semi-professional team, but this year it will turn into a professional team. I think if you have any doubts, maybe you can come to Manchester to see it in person. Our team is responsible for the expenses, so that you We can also have a more intuitive understanding of our team, and if we agree, we can talk about the contract on the spot."

Dave was obviously convinced by Xiao Yu's words. After thinking about it, he made an appointment with Xiao Yu, and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Dave was still standing in the phone booth, staring blankly at the note in his hand, unable to believe for a long time that a professional club had found him.

"Am I dreaming?" Dave asked muttering to himself.

Xiao Yu on the other side of the phone hung up the phone, showing a happy smile, because with this phone call, half of Capello's favorite powerful center forwards when he coached England in the future belonged to the new Manchester United.

As for the next negotiation, Xiao Yu is confident that he can stay in Manchester, because the ambition of the new Manchester United will excite all players who want to develop in the football field.

After tidying up his mood, Xiao Yu turned around and walked back to the Italian restaurant he just walked out of.

Although he was still in London yesterday evening, he has now arrived in a small town on the outskirts of Rome, Italy. At the same time, he has also found the person he was looking for.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Alberto!" Xiao Yu smiled and apologized to his guest.
