Green Life

Volume 3 Chapter 24

Parry sat on the sofa and vaguely looked at David Moores with half-white hair. The other party obviously hadn't taken care of himself for a long time. His hair was disheveled and he was wearing cotton pajamas.

It's just autumn, but he seems to have felt the cold of winter, curled up in the boss chair behind the desk.

lifeless.

The circles of Parry's eyes were a little red, and the recent turmoil had tortured the old man out of shape.

"Parry, what's the matter?" A hoarse voice came from behind the desk, but his mouth could not be seen moving at all, his body was completely hidden in the darkness, only a vague outline.

The entire study room was lit only by a faint yellow desk lamp, which was hazy and lifeless.

Parry knew what he was asking, sighed secretly, opened the folder he brought with him, and softly reported the recent changes in the club, as if afraid of disturbing him.

"The club's debts have been brought under control by me and Ayre through sponsorship income and transfer income in the summer, the FA won't find out anything"

"Carlsberg still wants to ease our relationship with Dubai International and facilitate the acquisition. They said that if we withdraw the lawsuit, they are willing to make up part of our losses."

"How much?" came a voice from the darkness.

"Less than ten million..." Parry said in embarrassment.

"laugh"

Seeing that David didn't say anything, he continued to report.

"The court has initiated the investigative process of Dubai International's acquisition of minority shareholders, but...", Parry paused.

"Speak Straight"

"I don't think there will be any results. Dubai International is not afraid of this. They are probably just procrastinating until..."

"Until I'm completely bankrupt?" There was a faint trace of anger in the darkness, but it was no longer so full of anger.

Parry nodded slowly in embarrassment.

"Oh", David Moores finally showed his face, "My family has been here for decades, Liverpool has a glorious past and, now, even if he is relegated to the British Championship, he will still be there when it comes back. It's a wealthy family"

"David,

This...is not good for anyone," Parry persuaded him.

"You don't understand," David Moores stood up, pacing back and forth, "How much ups and downs I have experienced with Liverpool, I will never let others steal it from me"

How much a thing is worth has different values ​​in the eyes of different people. With the Liverpool club leading the Premier League championship, the price David Moores offered is not too outrageous.

But in the eyes of the businessman, he, the owner, is on the verge of bankruptcy, so Liverpool is not worth that price, and the funds involved here and there are over 100 million.

The two sides seem to be separated by the English Channel, and it is difficult to reconcile. In David Moores' view, they are a bunch of robbers who take advantage of the fire and are ruthless.

That would be worse than selling it to those two Yankees. Although they had financial problems, they gave him real money. He even regrets it now, but his heart softened at that time.

Isn't Manchester United also playing leverage? As for how they play after they buy the club, it's none of their business. Why did I think so much for the club and the fans?

"Sammy Lee and the others are doing okay." As if he didn't want to think about these things, he shifted the topic to the team.

Parry nodded, "The locker room is very stable now, the team is not on the right track, and the results are not bad."

"Where is Rafa?"

“I heard it was a trip”

"It's fine to leave," said David Moores. "Even if he doesn't have anything to do with the club, he won't be here long. The players in the room are almost offended."

Parry nodded, "But, after all, he is the guarantee of performance, and now Liverpool's competitiveness has declined."

"These players are still here, not much worse." David Moores waved his hand, as if he didn't take it seriously, "When Shankly left, Liverpool's sky didn't fall. Didn't Paisley come? , more championships than Shankly's"

Parry knew that David Moores couldn't make sense now, so he didn't continue to delve into this topic.

"By the way, there is something," Parry said as if he just remembered, "I heard that people from the Hillsborough Justice Organization seem to be moving around now and want to restart the case investigation."

"They?" David Moores asked, "It's been years of trouble and nothing has come of it, so what's the use of going any further?"

Parry shook his head, "I don't know, maybe the team won the championship last year stimulated them."

David Moores felt that this might not be true, so he nodded and said, "If you need assistance from the club, try to make it easier for them."

"it is good"

"Is there any player on the team who wants to transfer recently?"

"No, the team's main contract has at least three years left, and the extra four years were all re-signed by Rafa last year, and the players have not made any transfers at this time."

"Rafa has the foresight. It's good if there is no one. If the team wants to maintain the level, it can't lose too much blood. I still understand this truth. Let Sammy Li dig more new players. He doesn't have to think about buying people. If there are not enough substitutes, use young players. Training"

"Okay, I made a note, by the way, we need to find a coach for next season as soon as possible," Parry reminded.

David Moores thought for a while and replied: "Let's wait until the second half of the season to think about it. I can't find a suitable one now. Let's look at Sammy Lee's results."

Now he seldom goes to the club. When there is something to do, Parry and Al come to report to him. The old man's employment is still worthy of praise.

The club is in such a mess, yet Parry and Al still take care of everything for him conscientiously and loyally.

...

In November, Liverpool has entered the cold season again, and there are many days without sunshine at the beginning of the month.

Ma Keqin officially moved to a villa in the suburbs today, because the environment here is better, the security is better, and the area is larger. The most important thing is that the fireplace system is more advanced than there. The whole villa is much warmer, and it is more comfortable to live in winter.

The only downside is that it is far away from Melwood. He needs to drive back and forth every day, and he can't play football or ride a car on a whim like before.

This is the villa that the rich second generation's father gave him. After two months, he decided to move here.

"Wow, it's so big here." Ai Ming, who came over, looked at the huge living room on the first floor and was amazed.

Ma Keqin was visiting with his arms around Isabella. It was really not small, even bigger than the one in Isabella's house.

Several people visited for a while, and Ma Keqin pushed them to the kitchen, "Help Aunt Joya, my teammate will come later, there are so many people, she can't handle it"

"Hehe, don't worry, Mark, I have almost prepared it a long time ago, and I hope you are satisfied," Aunt Joya said with a smile.

In the evening, Ma Keqin and Isabella, dressed in formal attire, stood at the door to greet them.

Gerard and Curran, Carragher and Nicola, Alonso and Nagore, Dirk and Gertrude, Agger and Sophie, Skrtel and Barbara, Enrique and Ellen Mi, Maer and Fernanda, and a few bachelors...

"Hey Mark, why are you only allowed to bring wives and girlfriends, not girls, it's not fair to us," Valle yelled.

"Because this is a family gathering," Ma Keqin ignored him, and together with Isabella led everyone into the hall one after another.

In the afternoon, Joya and the others prepared the buffet and long tables early, and now they turned on the fireplace next to them, lit candles, and there was a row of men and a row of women facing each other.

"Isabella, you are very beautiful when I saw you in a magazine, but I didn't expect to be more beautiful in person," Kuran and Nicole said while pulling Isabella.

"Thank you, you are beautiful too." Isabella, who had been trained as an aristocrat when she was a child, responded gracefully to this kind of occasion.

"Dang, dang", Ma Keqin knocked on the wine glass, looked to attract attention, stood up and said: "Ments, ladies, brothers, welcome to come to the party held by Issa and I today"

"Next, I would like to respect everyone from Isabella." After Isabella held up the wine glass with him, he continued: "First of all, thank you for taking care of me, and secondly, I wish the men present here a better performance on the court. Ladies are getting prettier"

"Haha, okay," Carragher laughed, "Mark, I'll hold a party for your first time, and I'll make you poor."

"Haha, come on, cheers", everyone laughed, most of the men brought beer, and the women took champagne to taste.

The melodious music sounded, and everyone started to gather together in twos and threes, eating and chatting.

Usually, this kind of gathering is held several times a year, so most of the women are familiar with it, only Isabella attends relatively few.

Let's talk about some gossip and life anecdotes. The things in the locker room are not suitable for chatting here.

While chatting, the topic came up with the recent trend of the "Hillsborough Justice Organization". At least in Liverpool now, many people already know about this.

"I think you have to stand up and help them at the right time. I understand that they have been calling for this for many years, and this is also the eternal pain in Steven's heart," Kuran said.

Gerald frowned. He had been doing this for many years, but he had no name for it. He had given up hope.

"I also think they deserve sympathy and help," Isabella also said.

Nicola echoed: "Many people in Liverpool know about this, I think you should support them"

"I know about this," Ma Keqin said in a timely manner, "The person in charge of mkq18 is also participating. I have an idea and I just take this opportunity to share it with you today."

Everyone is looking at him, wanting to hear what he has to say. Everyone in mkq18 knows that the scale is not small now.

"Captain and teammates, I haven't been in the Liverpool first team for a long time, but I have been in Liverpool for a long time"

"Friends around me have witnessed and experienced that incident, and I personally support them"

"Last year we won the Premier League for the first time. I think our influence is expanding around the world now."

"When they really shout out their demands and the incident becomes a hot topic, I think we should use the resources around us as much as possible to help them raise their profile and increase their influence"

"For Liverpool, this is also an unwarranted stain, a chance to be rehabilitated"

Gerrard and Carragher looked at each other, and Gerrard said: "Jamie and I are more supportive, but it hasn't worked for many years."

"It's different this time," Ma Keqin said, "We try our best to make the impact of the incident bigger, and let friends from all walks of life around us participate as much as possible."

He looked into the eyes of his teammates and said confidently: "London is the host of the next Olympic Games. As long as the event becomes a hot topic, I believe the British government will seriously consider it."

Everyone in Liverpool looked at each other, "Mark, you are deeply involved in this matter," Carragher asked.

"My friend is one of the initiators, I promised them to help them, but my own strength is limited, so I need to seek help from everyone, and more outside friends, I believe this time there will be result"

His confidence comes from the fact that it is only over a year since the British government released the case file, and his wings should not have affected the British authorities.

Gerrard put down his knife and fork, and asked seriously, "Tell me your specific thoughts."

One old and one young, the fate of Liverpool began to intersect...
