Chapter 95 I want my own business EP

The body position of butterfly stroke is different from other swimming strokes in that there is no fixed body position. During swimming, the various parts of the body and head constantly change their relative positions to each other. During butterfly swimming, the waist is the horizontal axis as the center, the trunk and legs swing rhythmically, and the force point is at the waist and abdomen, so the strength and muscle requirements of the waist and abdomen are relatively high.

Butterfly swimming is the most difficult to master among the four competitive swimming postures. Butterfly swimming has a strong rhythm and consumes a lot of physical energy, so few people use this posture for long-distance swimming.

Tang Jiaming, who "jumped" into the water and could no longer be "whipped", laughed at himself: "I'm old, I'm old. Maybe I haven't practiced this butterfly stroke for a long time. It seems that I need to practice more in the future!"

Eileen said angrily: "Yes, husband, you will go home as early as today, exercise more, and go out to drink less..."

"What a verbose thing!" After hearing this, Tang Jiaming's face darkened. He was most annoyed by Irene asking him to go home early. He turned to Li Xiaofan and said, "Afan, can you swim butterfly?"

"I know a little bit..."

"Then show your hand and let our two beauties appreciate it!"

Li Xiaofan saw that the atmosphere between Tang Jiaming and his wife was a little awkward, so he said, "Okay, I'll show off my shame!"

When he was in middle school, Li Xiaofan was selected by the county's junior sports school to train in swimming for a period of time. He also learned butterfly swimming, and the basics were all there.

After Li Xiaofan plunged into the water, he exerted force on his waist and abdomen, then used his thighs to drive his calves, and made up and down whipping movements with both legs. These movements of his are closely linked to the movements of his head and arms, forming a wave action unique to butterfly swimming, so the body has less resistance when moving forward.

His body posture is swaying in a wave-like manner, with his head and torso sometimes emerging from the water and sometimes submerging into the water, creating ups and downs in the form of waves.

After the upper body is raised, the arms are vigorously paddled to the back of the thighs and lifted out of the water. The aerial migration technique is used. From the appearance, it looks like a butterfly spreading its wings and flying, and the posture is very graceful.

In this 25-meter swimming lane, after completing a few butterfly strokes, it's time to touch the wall.

"What a nice view!"

"Brother Xiaofan, that's great!"

In the swimming pool, Tang Xinyi and Irene clapped hard! Even Tang Jiaming gave a thumbs up.

At this time, Aunt Tang came over and said: "Madam, Master, Mr. Tang is up and the food is ready. He wants you to go and eat..."

"Yeah, I know, we'll go there right away!"

When the four of them changed their clothes and came down to the living room, Mr. Tang was already making Kung Fu tea there.

On his left hand, he wore the Qinan bracelet given by Li Xiaofan. From time to time, he brought it to his nose and inhaled the aroma, looking like he couldn't put it down.

After seeing Li Xiaofan, he greeted him cordially: "Afan, come and have tea!"

"Uncle Tang, let me do it!"

"Hey, no! You are a guest, there is no reason for you to come to visit!"

"Uncle Tang, this tea is so fragrant. What kind of tea is this?"

The tea soup brewed by Mr. Tang is dark orange-yellow, clear and gorgeous. The bottom of the leaf is soft and bright, the edge of the leaf is vermilion, and the center of the leaf is light green with yellow. It has the sweetness of black tea and the fragrance of green tea.

After Li Xiaofan tasted it, the most outstanding thing he felt was the fragrant orchid aroma, which was high and long-lasting, and had an indescribable "rock charm" when drinking it.

Mr. Tang smiled and said: "This is the Dahongpao from our hometown in Fujian, mainland China, do you know?"

"Oh, it turns out to be Dahongpao, I know something about it!"

Wuyishan Dahongpao is a unique flower among Chinese tea gardens. It is known as the "number one among teas" and the king of rock tea. It can be called a national treasure of China. It is produced in Wuyishan, FJ Province. The finished tea has a strong aroma and mellow taste, with obvious "rock charm" characteristics. It leaves a fragrant aroma on the teeth and cheeks after drinking, and is also known as the "Wuyi Tea King".

After Mr. Tang refilled his tea, he said: "Afan, this bunch of Qinan you gave me is really good! Since wearing it, I feel that I sleep much better, eat better, and feel better." , this thing is really a treasure!”

Li Xiaofan smiled and said: "Uncle Tang, as long as you are happy!"

After sitting down to slowly sip tea, Li Xiaofan discovered that the entire living room of the villa was made of black wooden Chinese furniture, which was bright, elegant and fashionable.

The wood of these pieces of furniture has a fragrant smell, and the surface is hard and smooth. The polished patina on the surface is very bright, like a bronze mirror that can be seen, and the surface is like satin, which is reminiscent of beautiful jade. The texture is tight, the brown eyes are sparse, and the oil is thick. The unpredictable black patterns resemble famous mountains and rivers, like flowing clouds and flowing water, and are better than jasper Qiongyao. The surface of the furniture has a metallic luster, and if it contains thick grease, it will feel smooth.

Li Xiaofan asked curiously: "Uncle Tang, what kind of wood is this? It feels so comfortable!"

“It’s made of ebony wood from Indonesia!”

"Oh, it turns out this is Indonesian ebony wood, I've heard of its name for a long time!"

In his previous life, Li Xiaofan heard from his old classmate Lin Zhiyong that Hainan yellow rosewood, Indian rosewood, and Indonesian ebony were all very good mahogany materials and highly valuable for collection. Ebony is a high-end material used for precious furniture, craft carvings, high-end decoration and musical instruments. But I had very little contact before.

Seeing Li Xiaofan's interest, Mr. Tang introduced: "Actually, the best ebony wood that is truly representative in the world only grows on the island of Sulawesi near the equator in Indonesia. Because the trees are extremely slow to mature, it takes hundreds or even hundreds of years to mature. For more than hundreds of years, coupled with its harsh growth environment, it is basically a non-renewable resource. Ebony is now a national treasure plant in Indonesia, also known as Sulawesi ebony..."

"Afan, if you like it, when you get married in the future, my old man will give you a set of authentic Sulawe ebony furniture as a wedding gift. How about it?"

Li Xiaofan laughed: "Haha, Uncle Tang, it's too early to get married, and your girlfriend is still flying in the sky!"

Grandpa Tang pointed at Tang Jiaming and said: "Do you want Ah Ming to introduce you to some girlfriends? He hangs out in the world all day, and he must know a lot of beautiful women!"

Tang Jiaming smiled a little embarrassedly: "Haha, Dad, you are making fun of me again! Ah Fan's vision is high, and he probably doesn't like ordinary girls!"

Li Xiaofan smiled and said: "To be honest, I am just a foreign worker with a WP, how can I be picky? If WP permit holders like us get along with local Singaporeans, Or PR marriage must be approved by the Singapore government! "

Mr. Tang said: "Afan, I heard from Amin that you are good at English, so you can just go to Amin's company to work! We will help you apply for EP!"

"Uncle Tang, I appreciate your kindness! I still want to start my own business in Singapore, register my own company, and after I have business and tax contributions, I will apply for an entrepreneurship EP for myself in my own company in the future!"

After hearing this, Mr. Tang gave a thumbs up and praised: "Well, very good! Young people need this kind of ambition! Afan, I support you in starting a business. If you need any help from us, just let us know!"
