Bianliang Shiyue Chapter 396 Second round of competition
Bianliang, outer city, hotpot restaurant.
Lu Yao, who was originally a little worried about the operation of this hot pot restaurant, has no worries after seeing the current situation. It seems that the choice of Yang Tao as the person in charge and the cooperation with Zhang Maocai have confirmed that Lu Yao
Yao's choice is not wrong. In fact, Lu Yao is not too worried about the long-term operation and profit of the hot pot restaurant. After all, hot pot is a food industry, and it is indeed delicious. Even if everyone cannot accept it at the beginning, after a while
Time, everyone has tasted this special spicy hot pot, and the customer flow will also increase by then. So Lu Yao is more worried about whether there will be so many people coming when it first opens. And in Zhang Maocai's
After some operation, today is the first day of business, and it is still noon, so there are already so many people here. If this momentum continues, these people who have eaten hot pot will go back to promote it. From now on, hot pot
Of course, there is no need to worry about the business of the store.
Although Lu Yao made a little less in terms of pricing, as long as there was a steady stream of customers coming to dine, the income was still very considerable. At the same time, Lu Yao also gave an explanation to Zhao Hu and Pan Yuanwu. These two people actually
From the beginning, they were not very optimistic about Lu Yao's hot pot restaurant business. After all, the place they chose was in the outer city. In their opinion, the people in the outer city still have limited money. In addition, it is not certain whether this new type of food meets the requirements.
The appetite of these people. Pan Yuanwu is not bad, he only needs to provide some peppers and potatoes, mainly from boss Zhao Hu. All ingredients and sewer food must be transported from Zhao Hu. If
If the business of the hot pot restaurant is not good, Zhao Hu will also suffer losses. However, it seems that the supply of ingredients will only increase in the future. It can be said that the money earned by Zhao Hu is also rising in a straight line.
.
Talking back to the present, in fact, from the end of Lu Yao's imperial examination to the end of the first round of competitions, Lu Yao did not have a good chat with Pan Wen, Zhe Kexing, and Chen Chen. Mainly because now they
We already have our own things to do, and we won’t have time to go to Lu Mansion to sit for a while like before. Zhe Kexing is the instructor and the commentator of the new Cuju competition. During the offseason, he is basically responsible for the management of the stadium.
Zhe Kexing is all in charge, but fortunately Gu Liang's Goshawk team has been eliminated. Gu Liang and his men have now begun to take on the task of maintaining order, and Gu Liang himself has also expressed to Zhe Kexing that he
I am also very much looking forward to the second round, especially the matchup between the Lions and Wenyuan. Speaking of the Lions, in fact, it was not easy for them to win the battle against the Goshawks, if it were not for the fact that the distance was not established.
Very strict, using foul tactics, coupled with Cao You's accurate prediction ability, it is not easy to win the Goshawks head-on. Although they won the game in the end, the Lions' core player Xu Ming
Because he received the first red card since the start of the game, he will not be able to play in the next game. Facing the Wenyuan team without such a general, I don’t know if it will have any serious impact. However, judging from Cao You’s expression today
Look, he doesn't seem to be worried about this.
As for Chen Chen, his current thoughts are basically on the new Cuju competition. Since the grassroots team was eliminated, Chen Chen has been working as a commentator, and now among them, only Pan Wen's Fanlou team has entered.
In the second round of the competition, Chen Chen naturally hopes that Pan Wen can go further, so he has been staying with Pan Wen these days to help him study the Fan Lou team. When all the games are over, Chen Chen will officially become Lu Yao's
The housekeeper helps him take care of the business below, but now, Lu Yao is really unwilling to destroy his enthusiasm for the new Cuju, so most of Lu Yao's things are still done by Tangxi. When the competition is over, Chen Chen
There is still a lot to learn.
There is no need to say more about Pan Wen. Like Cao You, he is a team that has advanced to the next round. But unlike Cao You, the strength of the Lions and Wenyuan teams is actually about the same. One is
Focusing on tactical integrity, one focuses on the core trio of players. Pan Wen's Fanlou team is now recognized by everyone as the weakest team among the teams that advanced to the second round. In terms of overall strength
From the looks of it, the Fanlou team does not have an advantage. It has no core players and its offensive and defensive capabilities are not very outstanding. From a tactical perspective, everyone believes that Pan Wen’s tactical guidance ability and on-the-spot adaptability are not as good as Cao Wen’s.
Temptation, this is an indisputable fact, and Pan Wen himself admits it.
Therefore, since his team is now regarded as the weakest by others, Pan Wen himself will naturally not be reconciled. His goal is to be the final winning team. Only in this way can he obtain the right to operate the football lottery. This is also Pan Wen's goal.
The final and original goal. For this reason, even Pan Yuanwu was surprised by Pan Wen's changes during this period. Pan Wen would leave home at dawn every day, and then find his friends to discuss with Yang Tao and Chen Chen about the Fanlou team.
The issue of improving strength.
Lu Yao was also deeply moved when he saw his friend's hard work. Perhaps, if he had not held this new Cuju competition and established the lottery industry, Pan Wen would still be like him when they first met, doing nothing all day long. Of course, there would be no need.
Worrying about money, he might end up taking over Pan Yuanwu's job, managing Fan House, and becoming a wealthy businessman. It was what Lu Yao did later that allowed Pan Wen to find a direction for his efforts.
When friends get together, they naturally want to have a drink and talk. Lu Yao and these people drank happily in the private room. As for Su Shi, Su Che, and Zeng Gong, Lu Yao originally thought that they would not meet with his other friends.
What a common topic. After all, these three are all members of the Eight Great Families of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Their exports are articles. There is a difference between great talents and ordinary people like Pan Wen and Chen Chen. What's more, Zhe Kexing, a soldier, should
They are also looked down upon.
However, what Lu Yao did not expect was that these three people did not look down on Zhe Kexing at all. They felt that being a general was also a very good choice for a man. In addition, the two brothers Su Shi and Su Che had nothing to do with Pan Wenhe about the new Cuju.
Chen Chen also has many topics in common. The one that Lu Yao never expected was Zeng Gong. It turns out that this guy is also a loyal fan, and he also went to watch the game between Fan Lou and Tigers, which can be regarded as support for Fan Lou.
or.
At the same time, Lu Yao also saw a flattered look on Pan Wen's expression for the first time, and because of Zeng Gong's support, Pan Wen also vowed that he would try his best to win the next game.
Lu Yao and the others drank until the afternoon. Lu Yao also took a break from his busy schedule. He hadn't had such a good time in a long time. After having enough wine and food, everyone was more or less a little drunk. In order not to disturb Yang Tao, everyone didn't stay too long.
He left the hot pot restaurant. Before leaving, Lu Yao told Yang Tao to make sure the dormitory was ready, especially to take good care of Jin Tai and Zhang Mou.
"I'll leave the hot pot restaurant to you. Don't worry, I'll do your best." Lu Yao left these words, and Yang Tao, who looked happy, left the hot pot restaurant.
Su Shi, Su Che and Zeng Gong naturally wanted to go back to their residence. Lu Yao originally wanted Tangxi to give them a ride in a carriage, but Su Shi said that they would just walk back and sober up. Su Che on the side complained that it turned out that today
When they came out, Su Xun originally didn't want them to come to the hot pot restaurant. Su Xun felt that every time his two sons took advantage of the road, eating and drinking for free without making any contribution, it was really not good. Of course, this
It was because Su Xun did not understand the contribution that Su Shi and Su Che made in the commentary. Therefore, Su Shi and Su Che said that they would not go to the hot pot restaurant, but would just go out for a walk. For this reason, they specially called Zeng Gong to cover.
When Su Xun saw Zeng Gong walking with him, he felt that Lu Yao and Zeng Gong were not that familiar and would not go to a hot pot restaurant, so he let the two of them out. If Su Xun found out that he was smelling of alcohol when he went back like this,
It was bad. In this case, Lu Yao smiled slightly and did not send them off in a carriage.
After seeing off Su Shi, Su Che and Zeng Gong, Pan Wen, Chen Chen and Zhe Kexing, although they left the hot pot restaurant, said they wanted to go to Fanlou to sit for a while, and asked Lu Yao if he wanted to go. Lu Yao
I was a little surprised. Are these three guys going to Fanlou for another drink? Pan Wen quickly denied it. He said that tomorrow is the day when Fanlou team will play against Huangtian team. Soon the three of them will go to Fanlou.
We need to finally discuss the strategy that the Fan Lou team will adopt when they go out to play tomorrow.
Lu Yao looked at Zhe Kexing and asked: "As an instructor, you will still be the commentator tomorrow. Is it really okay to not avoid suspicion?"
Zhe Kexing seemed indifferent and said: "It is already unfair for the Huangtian team to use the training ground inside the palace. I am just making a few suggestions. What's more, I didn't go to the Fanlou team's training day this time.
The stadium shouldn’t be regarded as favoritism.”
Lu Yao smiled. It seems that the matter of the Huangtian team using the palace training ground was still remembered by these people. Since Zhe Kexing said so, Lu Yao couldn't say anything. The same was true for Chen Chen.
All the grassroots teams have been eliminated. Pan Wen is now the only one left in the team of Lu Yao's three friends. Naturally, everyone has to work hard for the Fan Lou team. Especially when we were drinking just now, Yang Tao also took the time to enter the private room and gave instructions.
Pan Wen didn't let him drink too much, after all, there was a competition tomorrow.
There is naturally a hangover soup in Fanlou, so you don’t have to worry too much about this aspect.
"Come on, tomorrow's game will prove to them that your Fan Lou team is not the weakest among the four teams in the second round." Lu Yao patted Pan Wen on the shoulder and said.
Pan Wen scratched his head and said, "Why can't I tell whether you are praising me or scolding me?"
Several people burst out laughing.
The three friends all left. Lu Yao rejected their invitation. It was not because he felt that he wanted to avoid suspicion and not go to Fanlou. It was because Lu Yao had a fixed task to complete in the evening, which was to meet with Jintai and Fangzhuang.
We are practicing martial arts, and now the second round of the game is about to begin. Although the interval between the first game and the second game will be longer, before the Lions and Wenyuan teams play, the martial arts competition will be held.
This is an urgent matter for Lu Yao.
Lu Yao and Tang Xi went directly to Jiuzhongxian. After drinking the hangover soup, Lu Yao calmed down. Then when Fangzhuang and Jintai arrived, he started practicing again as before.
The same exercise, the same fatigue, but the difference from the past few days is that today Lu Yao put the mask he had made on his face for training. The feeling of wearing the mask and not wearing the mask is still different, the most obvious
The difference is breathing. Lu Yao must adapt to fighting while wearing a mask. When Lu Yao returns home from training, he falls asleep again. Lu Yao has been coming back very late every day these days.
She looked very tired. Neither her mother Yan nor her eldest brother Lu Hao knew what Lu Yao was busy with. After all, Lu Hao had to manage the bank, and her mother was also busy working on Lu Yao's marriage. The only one who knew about it was Lu Xu.
Because he agreed to Lu Yao's request, Lu Xu did not tell anyone about Lu Yao's martial arts training, but just told everyone that it was nothing.
Although he was very tired every day, Lu Yao actually enjoyed it. No matter what the outcome of the competition was, learning this kung fu would only be beneficial to him in the future.
Today's fatigue also caused Lu Yao to wake up late the next day, the second round of the new Cuju competition. If Tangxi hadn't counted the time and had to wake Lu Yao up, maybe Lu Yao would have woken up.
Maybe he could sleep until the end of the game. Of course, in modern times, Lu Yao is a person who has trouble getting out of bed and is very lazy in bed.
Lu Yao was called up by Tang Xi and told that the game was about to start in less than half an hour. Lu Yao quickly packed up his things, went to the kitchen to make something to eat, and then left the Lu Mansion. As soon as he left the house
I happened to bump into Lu Xu who was coming back from the next court. The two looked at each other without saying anything.
Tangxi drove Lu Yao to the Bird's Nest Stadium in a carriage. Because he got up late today, the audience had already entered the stadium, but the food street was still open and every merchant seemed to be doing well. Lu Yao originally thought
I was looking for Lao Chen Wenwen’s latest situation, but it was too late to check the time, so I had to go to the stadium to watch the game first.
Lu Yao entered the stadium and saw that the seats were packed with spectators. He was a little relieved. It seemed that the popularity of this event had not decreased after a week's hiatus.
When Lu Yao arrived at the dedicated rest area, Chen Chen, Han Wenyuan, and Cao Yu were already waiting there. Not seeing Yang Tao, Lu Yao thought it was because the hot pot restaurant had just opened and Yang Tao needed to focus more on it.
In the hot pot restaurant, what's more, although Yang Tao also likes the new Cuju very much, there is no way he likes it more than Chen Chen and Pan Wen. It is quite normal that he did not come to watch the game.
When Cao Yu saw Lu Yao arriving, he said, "Is it because you were too tired yesterday and didn't get up today?"
The meaning of these words couldn't be clearer. After the banquet ended yesterday, Cao You was the first to leave. However, before he left, he also asked Lu Yao if he wanted to practice martial arts. After all, for Cao You, it was a competition to recruit a bride.
It is not just Lu Yao's personal matter, he should also pay attention to it at all times. Therefore, what Cao Yu asked now is obviously implying whether Lu Yao practiced too much yesterday.
Lu Yao smiled bitterly and said, "It's like this every day."
Han Wenyuan on the side naturally didn't know what Lu Yao was talking about, but he still stepped forward and said: "I heard that your hot pot restaurant opened yesterday. I originally wanted to take a look, but it's just that
My dad asked me to do other things yesterday."
It seems that Han Wenyuan is quite aware of etiquette. He should already know that Lu Yao's hot pot restaurant opened yesterday, and he was the only one who did not go. Moreover, the Han family will soon become in-laws with the Lu family, so he did not show up. Indeed,
Some of them are unjustifiable.
Lu Yao doesn't care about these little things. He is more concerned about the situation of the game on the field than these.
The commentators for this game are Su Shi, Su Che and Zhe Kexing. These three were the commentators for the first round, which is the opening game of the new Cuju competition, and once again became the commentators for the first game of the second round.
. Different from when they were commentating on the first game, these three people are now obviously familiar with the game, and Lu Yao can no longer hear any nervous tone from their words. Moreover, because they have entered the second round of the game, the presence of
Most of the five to six hundred spectators were spectators who had watched the first round of the competition. They all had their own unique understanding of the new Cuju project. Therefore, Zhe Kexing and the three of them no longer needed to tell everyone again.
Talking so much nonsense, such as introducing rules and other things, the game can start soon.
Lu Yao looked at the audience in the stadium and found that the audience on the left side of the stadium basically cheered for the Fanlou team, while the ones on the right side were for the Huangtian team. It seemed that Zhe Kexing and Gu
Liang also has some research on audience distribution. After the first round of the game, basically the audience who watched the game should have one or more teams that they admire and support very much. So Lu Yao had dinner yesterday
At that time, I told Zhe Kexing that when designing the audience seats today, he would send someone to ask the audience after entering the venue which team they support more in this game, and then according to different areas, it would be best to divide the stadium seats into two.
Spectators who support the same team are allowed to gather together, which is also in line with the distribution guidelines of modern football spectators.
Therefore, the current situation of the audience on the field is that the left side supports the Fanlou team, and the right side supports the Huangtian team. Among these spectators, there are fanatical supporters of this team, and of course there are also those who are more optimistic about this game.
Which team wins. But Lu Yao took a closer look and found that the number of spectators supporting the Huangtian team was larger than that of the Fanlou team.
The players on the field have already entered the field, and Katsuyuki Zhe, Su Shi, and Su Che began to introduce the starting players and formations of both sides.
For the Huangtian team, the formation they adopted is still a very standard 4-4-2 formation with equal offense and defense. As the vice-captain of the team and also the coach, Wang Yi did not choose to follow the same pattern as the first game in this game.
Same, sit on the sidelines and watch the game and wait for a while before playing. Wang Da and Wang Yi appeared on the starting list at the same time, one on the left and one on the right. In the previous game between the Wenyuan team and the Lions, Lu
Yao talked about the concept of core players. In fact, Wang Da and Wang Yi had already discovered that rather than leading a team of coaches, perhaps like Xu Chang, it would be more suitable for them to set up a core group as the commander on the field.
The Huangtian team is a bit different. After all, they do not have a professional coach like Cao You who can sit off the court and direct. Although Wang Yi can also do this, the Huangtian team will lose an outstanding forward on the offensive end of the court.
Instead of doing this, the two of them might as well directly change the team's style, follow the core trio of Wenyuan team, and establish a double forward core group with Wang Da and Wang Yi as the core. This is different from the previous double forward formation.
Similarly, in the first round of the competition, Wang Da and Wang Yi relied more on their cooperation and personal ability to open up the situation. At that time, it was obvious that other members of the Huangtian team could not keep up with the rhythm of the two of them.
. Today, although the formation is the same, Lu Yao feels that since the concept of core players was proposed last time, Wang Da and Wang Yi must have gone back and done special training so that other players in the team can
To the extent that they can react and cooperate with Wang Da and Wang Yi, in this way, the style of the Huangtian team is actually somewhat similar to that of the Wenyuan team.
"The strength of Wang Da and Wang Yi is definitely better than that of Xuchang and the others. In addition, the entire team members can keep up with their offensive rhythm. If this is the case, the Fan Lou team may not be able to cope with it."
Han Wenyuan said this as he looked at the situation on the field. This is right. Although they are both double forwards, the strength of other players has been improved. Before, they only relied on these two people. It can be said that they were fighting alone, but once the entire team
Together, the tactics are changeable, and combined with the outstanding personal abilities of the two people, the Huangtian team is indeed powerful.
"If Wang Da and Wang pair have been trained as a whole and can compete with each other, will your friend Pan Wen's Fan Lou team be able to cope with it?" Su Shi said with a smile on the commentary stage.
Zhe Kexing, who was sitting aside, looked very calm and said: "I am not worried that the Fanlou team will not be able to cope with it. After all, the Huangtian team is not the only team that has received special training, and they will adopt such tactics.
It’s impossible for Pan Wen not to have thought of it.”
When Zhe Kexing said this, he deliberately increased the volume so that all the spectators and players on the field could hear it. Lu Yao looked at Han Wenyuan, meaning that this was the answer he gave to Han Wenyuan.
Then, Pan Wen led his Fan Lou team into the arena.
