There is a dream called football

Chapter 71

"If you want to eat something, just order it." Mourinho pushed the menu to Li Qiao.

"Hehe, it's the first time to eat a three-star Michelin in Portugal, I must order it carefully."

When I opened the menu, I was dumbfounded.

Every country has a problem, that is, the name of the dish is not well written. For example, in China, mapo tofu, couple's lung slices, even foreigners who can speak Chinese are confused.

The same is true for Li Qiao. Although he has learned simple Portuguese, he doesn't know any of the names of the dishes.

"Jose, what is this?"

"It should be a dish made of pork. I haven't eaten it yet."

"Haha, that's good, let's do it."

Li Qiao ordered a few dishes, and after eating and drinking, he should get to the point.

"Are you still used to life in Portugal?" Jose asked.

"I'm used to it now."

"I have never been to China, and I heard that it has its own unique culture."

Li Qiao nodded, "Jose, you really should go and see."

Mourinho also laughed.

"Is there any goal to play in Portugal? I guess you are not content to play only in the second team."

"Of course I'm not reconciled. My dream is to go to a team in the top five leagues."

"for example?"

"Real Madrid, Bayern, Juventus."

Mourinho smiled, gently clapped his hands and said, "Those who have dreams, come and have a drink."

"Haha."

"Jose, what do you want me for? You might as well just tell me."

Mourinho put down the wine glass in his hand and said seriously: "I want to transfer you to the first team, but I can't promise you anything."

……

Li Qiao was silent for a while.

"I can't even give you a contract with the first team. Everything depends on you to prove yourself. If you can't gain a foothold in the first team, then you have to go back to the second team."

After Li Qiao graduated from university in his previous life, he also joined the army of fresh graduates looking for jobs. Those responsible for recruiting are relatively arrogant towards these rookies. Basically, you have no qualifications to negotiate terms with them.

But for those who have work experience, especially those who have worked in large companies, those recruited in this way will be more polite. This is a very realistic society.

Mourinho's meaning is very clear, that is, to use the salary of the second team to do the work of the first team, and if he can't do it well, he has to go back.

It seems to be a very unreasonable request, but Li Qiao has already agreed in his heart at this time, and the reason is very simple-because the opportunity is the most important.

Many people complain about the unfairness of the society. Of course, the society is unfair, but how many people miss the opportunity in vain?

Seeing that Li Qiao was silent, Mourinho mistakenly thought that Li Qiao was dissatisfied with his salary.

"I can guarantee that as long as you score three goals in the league, we will immediately sign a team contract, how about it?"

Li Qiao raised his glass, "Jose, I need to think about it, I will go to your office tomorrow morning, if possible, I will bring my agent, how about it?"

Mourinho smiled, "Of course."

*****
Sousa's eyes widened, and he suddenly grabbed Li Qiao's hand, "Joe, are you stupid? You should agree immediately."

sweat!
"You are my agent, I have to tell you."

Sousa's head shook like a rattle, "No need, no need, that's an opportunity for the first team, even if you don't pay a penny, you should go."

Sweat more!
"Uncle, are you scolding me?"

Sousa realized that he was being careless, laughed and scratched his head, "I didn't mean that, but this is really a good opportunity."

"Well, as long as you become the main force of Porto's first team, I will marry Lorinda to you."

Huge sweat.

In fact, Lorinda was eavesdropping not far away, and when she heard what her father said, she cursed in her heart.

"Asshole, old man."

Li Qiao scratched his head in embarrassment, "Well, let's go to Jose's office tomorrow."

"it is good."

*****
When Lei Wen heard the news, his mood was complicated. On the one hand, he was of course happy for his good brother, but...

"Li Qiao, I think the club has taken advantage of all the bargains. It's a bit disrespectful. Since you are dropped to the first team, you must at least be given the salary of the first team."

Li Qiao chuckled, if he was more than 10 years younger in mental age, then he would think the same way. After all, he was in the second year of middle school at that time, but now Li Qiao has recognized the reality of society after all.

Before you have the strength to prove yourself, don't talk about fairness or unfairness, it's a bit naive.

"Don't believe I can gain a foothold in the first team?"

"Believe."

Lei Wen's answer was obviously a guilty conscience. It is human nature to love leisure and hate work. It is really uncomfortable to go to a place with more intense competition.

"Raven, the football world is a world where the weak prey on the strong. There are not so many sentimental people here. Everything is done by kicking. In Europe, if a striker fails to score a goal, he will be criticized immediately. Since we have chosen this path, we must accept the rules of the game."

After hearing this, Lei Wen also felt that it made sense, so he nodded and said nothing.

*****
The next day, Sousa and Li Qiao came to Mourinho's office. Porto's youth training is famous all over Europe, but even so, there are still very few people who can knock on the door of Mourinho's office from the second team.

The two sides reached a consensus, Mourinho pushed over a contract, Sosa was taken aback, "Didn't you say you won't sign a new contract?"

"Yes, it is a restrictive contract."

Sousa looked at it and understood it, and then asked Li Qiao to read it. In fact, the main idea is what I said yesterday, but it was implemented in words. It can be seen that European clubs are really formal in doing things, so as to avoid some unpleasantness.

Li Qiao signed his name, and Mourinho stretched out his hand, "You are now my player. You can't play in the Champions League. You can sign up for the second half of the season, but you have to be ready to play in the Portuguese Super League."

Li Qiao laughed.

"Let's go, go meet your new friends, integrate into the new team as soon as possible, I don't want to see you go back to the second team."

Li Qiao said: "Don't worry, Jose, if I can't gain a foothold in the first team, I will leave Porto too. There is a saying in China that a good horse never turns back."

Mourinho didn't know what that meant, and why it was associated with horses eating grass, but Li Qiao's attitude was very clear, and it was impossible to return to the B team.

"it is good."

Mourinho held Li Qiao's arm, "Let's go, go to the training ground, training starts today!"

Li Qiao is looking forward to training with his new teammates, Baia, Deco, Maniche, Carvalho, of course, the most anticipated is Mourinho, the madman who was later called Uncle Psy by Chinese fans.
