King’s Landing in Nottingham

Chapter Twenty-Tiger Brothers

After a team training match and three friendly matches, Notts County scored 3 wins and 1 tie in the warm-up match and remained undefeated. The only game to get a tie was lost to a player he personally loaned out, so from any point of view, Notts County is the biggest winner.

In the three friendly matches, there are strong Milton Keynes, Sheffield Wednesday, who is also on par with the Notts County club in the outside world, and Real Santander, who has just been relegated from La Liga. These three teams are in their respective teams. In the league, there is no scorpion that can be slaughtered. But Notts County's excellent performance of averaging three goals per game and only conceding one goal also raised a happy worry for Guardiola. Different lineups have scored a satisfactory score for themselves, and they have gotten better in the starting and rotation. It took a lot of thought.

On the night before Danny Alves was about to leave Notts County, Wei Xun took the team up and down to a newly opened Chinese restaurant in the middle of the Meadow Lane Stadium and the City Stadium, the home of the Forest, to have a farewell dinner. Danny Alves, the child about to travel.

Nottingham is a well-known industrial city in the East Midlands of the United Kingdom. It is also the second largest trading center in the United Kingdom after London. The financial, banking, and human resources service industries are all well-developed, but Nottingham is a place for leisure and entertainment. There are really few large restaurants that can accommodate dozens of people. The place where Wei Xun met Curtis and David's Truth Bar is too old to be verified.

It is said that David's grandfather worked as a bartender in the Truth Bar when he was young. Now David's father has retired. Everything in the Truth Bar has not changed, but he can still survive, probably because of lack of competition. The Nottingham Cricket Ground, the home of the Forest, and two large golf courses near the Notts County Club. When the events are concentrated, the food and entertainment of the players and spectators becomes a huge problem, but it also brings There is a lucrative business opportunity: The number of Notts County players should be considered relatively small. The player coaches plus the reserve team and staff have a total of only more than 50 people, but there is no restaurant near the club. It can accommodate so many people at the same time, even if they are all crowded in the hall...

Where can I go? I won the championship at the end of the season and there is no place to hold a big party with players and fans. "It is better to rely on yourself to solve the problem of eating on your own, and to generate income for the club." So Wei Xun chose such a three-story building with a basement throughout Nottingham, which is the No. 1 in the Notts County Industrial Group besides the club. Share industry.

Originally, this was an Italian restaurant that was not well run. The third floor was where the boss and employees stayed. Therefore, Wei Xun and the others did not need to go to the kitchen and cold storage to start anew. The location here is very good and the flow of people is large, but the business of this Italian restaurant is not very good. Wei Xun has never been here for dinner, but when communicating with the boss, he captured some useful information and places worthy of his own attention. "When making catering, you must maintain your own characteristics. Don't always think about going to the countryside and blending local tastes. In the end, four different images were made, so business would naturally not go up."

Because this restaurant is close to the Trent River, Wei Xun named it "Wangjiang Tower". The excellent location close to the City Stadium and Meiduo Lane Stadium also allowed Wangjiang Tower to maintain a high attendance rate during the trial operation phase.

At the time, Wei Xun and the construction and decoration team from China repeatedly urged: "The main thing is to make the grid taller and adopt the ancient Chinese palace decoration style. I have all glazed tiles on the roof, imitating the style of the Forbidden City, so I am not afraid to spend money. The wall decoration should be made of environmentally friendly wallpaper. It is best to use the ancient Chinese painting and calligraphy background. The paint has a smell. It is contrary to our goal of achieving business as soon as possible, and it is not good for the health of the guests. In addition, On the way in, set up two large arches for me. One writes Wangjiang Tower on the top and the other writes King’s Landing Nottingham. Be sure to ask a calligraphy master to write it for me. Don’t fool me. I have someone on top. Yes, there must be two stone lions at the gate..."

Therefore, when the Notts County Club and the group came downstairs in Wangjiang Building, they all felt a little bit cold, "This TMD is too tyrant, right? Chairman Wei invited us to eat here? This is too much. That's awesome!"

"Danny, your face is so great, I scored a goal at the end of last season, and our boss invited me to Chinatown to have a Beijing roast duck..." George Grant, who was with Alves almost every day, envied it. Said.

Danny Alves obviously did not expect that Wei Xun would choose to see him off in such a luxurious hotel. Since childhood, no one has been so kind to himself. For a while, Danny’s eyes were like dust, and he couldn’t stop. There were tears.

Excluding those on duty, there will be a special person to deliver meals to them in a while, and the remaining 40 people all came. They are collectively seated in the largest private room "Grand View Garden" in Wangjiang Tower. They are divided into 3 tables from left to right: Danny Alves As the protagonist of this farewell party, I was fortunate to sit with Wei Xun, Guardiola and others at the big garden table in the middle, while the rest of the people were left and right.

After briefly tasting a few special appetizers, Zhao Tai stood up and signaled everyone to be quiet, and then Wei Xun began his impromptu "lecture":

"Actually I am not very good at speaking in front of so many people, which makes me feel a little shy and blush..."

"Huh..." I don’t know who booed first, and then there was a roaring sound at the scene, and then everyone laughed. The smile was so natural that Alves realized that Mr. Chairman and Mr. The relationship between everyone is so good, here is really like George said, it is a warm family.

Wei Xun pressed his hand down, "This is probably the first time everyone has gathered for dinner since they came to Notts County, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Chairman, for the first time." Van Persie played a very good exemplary lead.

"Boss, this is also the first time I have Chinese food, this leaf is quite delicious..." Ribery raised his hand shyly.

"Hahahaha..."

"I'm also very happy these few days. First, everyone has worked well. Second, these days are the days when our Notts County family is truly reunited..." Wei Xun picked up his barley tea and walked to Dan. By the side of Ni Alves, "Who is he, I think, I don’t need to spend any more words? In previous games, Danny’s strength was obvious to all, but due to some special reasons, Danny has been in the past two years. Li can’t fight with us, now, let’s raise a toast for Danny and Notts County.”

"Cheers!"

"Come on Danny!"

Alves drank the barley tea in his cup. The bitter taste made his tears flow even more. He kept bowing to everyone, "Thank you everyone, thank you boss, thank you coach..."

Wei Xun tightly hugged Alves, who was sobbing silent. He really didn't expect that a tough guy like Alves would cry like a woman. Wei Xun took Alves and walked slowly to the center of the box. "This year we play in the second division and Danny plays in the second division. we have to work together to try to play with Danny in the first division next year. In the end, we will play in the Premier League with Danny!"

"Notts County..."

"attack!"

Everyone drank another cup of barley tea. At the invitation of Wei Xun, Guardiola also expressed his own testimony, “I’m really happy today. I won the Champions League and the league championship, but I didn’t expect to be in my career. At the end of my career, I can still do such a crazy and exciting thing with you. I believe that our Notts County will be able to reach peaks one after another with the joint efforts of everyone!"

"The coach said well!"

"Mighty Notts County!"

"Okay guys, let’s not say much, it’s all in the barley tea. Tonight, I will pay for all your consumption, take care of food and take care of it. If you want to take it to your family or friends, you can place an order directly later, anyway. Just one sentence, give me all the fun, whoever is polite to me, then don’t blame me Wei Xun for being polite to you!"

"Come on, let's go one more!"

While talking, Wei Xun raised his cup and drank it with his head up. It was only after he had eaten that he realized that the taste was a bit wrong, obviously it was not barley tea. Wei Xun smelled the yellow liquid in the cup again, "I K, this Who secretly poured me beer?

"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed, and soon no one cared about this episode.

"Come on, make an exception for Danny. Drinking tonight is not considered a violation of the rules. Let's toast and send Danny...", the head coach has spoken, so what are you afraid of. Everyone raised their glass full of beer. George and Taylor were still happily driving beer for everyone, and the scene suddenly became lively.

Wei Xun also yelled unkindly at this time, "Everyone won't be drunk tonight", and then raised the butcher knife in his hand and aimed it at Guardiola first.

"Thank you Chairman!"

"Long live the boss!"

"Fill the coach!"

In addition to Klauschen, Bila and the old Mertesacker, the oldest veterans of the team are only in their 30s. The others are a bunch of young people in their 20s. What they like most is the number of people. And lively. Everyone pushed the cup and changed, and they soon became a piece, even Danny Alves became very familiar with everyone. Seeing everyone in groups, "hanging shoulders and backs", Wei Xun couldn't help laughing in his heart, "fighting tiger brothers, playing father and son soldiers", the feelings between the players gradually heated up, reaching a tacit understanding on the court. And willpower will be stronger than other teams. Isn't this the effect that I have worked so hard to achieve?
