The Midfield Master

(Welcome to join the Midfield Master book friend exchange group: 532028645)

After the awards ceremony, the Everton club will start a holiday. The players will have a one and a half month holiday. The team will re-train in early July to prepare for next season's competition.

And many club staff cannot take the same holidays as players, because they still need to work hard for the team's transfer window. Which players need to be cleaned and which positions need to be strengthened should be completed as much as possible before the start of the preseason.

On May 20, the team officially had a holiday, and Xia Ze returned to Guangzhou with his mother and younger brother.

As for Wang Xiaolin, because she still has an exam, it will be a week later before she can return to Guangzhou.

In fact, for international players such as Xia Ze and Zhang Wei, the holiday is not as long as more than a month. After half a month of rest at home, they will report to the national team for training and prepare for the top 40 of the 2018 World Cup Asian qualifiers. Contest.

This time they were recognized as having drawn a good lottery. Because of their outstanding performance in the Asian Cup, their international ranking returned to the top eight in Asia and qualified for a seed team.

So draw a group with Qatar, Hong Kong, Maldives and Bhutan.

In this group, Qatar is the stronger one and can compete with the national football team. Others such as China Xiangguang, Maldives and Bhutan are not worth mentioning.

Especially in Maldives and Bhutan, most of the players are amateur players, and there is no comparison with the national football team.

Even Hong Kong, China, which has naturalized many foreigners, is far from being China's opponent in terms of strength.

This time, the top 40 competition will have the first place in the eight groups, and the second place in the four groups with the best results will also appear to form the top 12. They will participate in the final top 12 in Asia and compete for 4.5 places to qualify for the World Cup. The number of places in the race.

For the national football team, the place to advance to the top twelve is a must.

After all, the current head coach of the national football team is Lippi, and with the rise of young players such as Xia Ze and Zhang Wei, and the overseas study of players such as Zhang Linpeng and Wu Lei, the strength of the Chinese team has improved a level compared to before.

If this fails to advance to the top twelve, for them, it is really better to disband.

Of course, the world preliminaries will only start in mid-June. For Xia Ze now, it is better to enjoy the holiday first.

After all, after playing football abroad,

It is rare to be able to enjoy free time without the pressure of the game.

After returning to Guangzhou, Xia Ze first slept at home for a few days.

Although she has already played football in the Premier League and earned enough money, her mother is unwilling to move out of the old community. Because she hated the old neighbors in the community.

Although my son can earn tens of thousands of pounds a week, no matter where he is in the world, he can be regarded as a high-income group. But Mother Xia couldn't stay idle and was still fiddling with her snack stall.

It's just that Xia Ze rented a bunk near his home in order to avoid pushing the cart back and forth in the wind and rain, so that his mother would not be too idle to panic.

Because Xia Ze is so famous now, this snack bar is often visited by people who want to meet Xia Ze here, or get some interesting stories about Xia Ze from Xia Ze's mouth.

Xia's mother didn't mind these young people coming to inquire about her son's news. Instead, she was very proud and framed some of her son's jerseys at home and hung them in the store.

When I am free, I chat with the neighbors, and when I am busy, I make snacks for the guests. In addition, after Xia Tao's training is over, he occasionally comes to help out, so life is fulfilling.

So after Xia Ze returned to Guangzhou, he still lived in the old community in Yuexiu District. Fortunately, the neighbors around him grew up watching Xia Ze grow up. Although Xia Ze is famous now, there is no strangeness between them. Seeing that Xia Ze would not ask for a group photo and autograph like a stranger, it made Xia Ze feel quite comfortable.

After resting at home for two days, Xia Ze couldn't be bothered, so he went to help his mother's shop.

It was okay at first, but some fans who came to try their luck actually met Xia Ze here, and the news that Xia Ze was in a snack bar in Yuexiu District spread immediately.

That afternoon, a large number of fans flocked to the snack bar and even the community, wanting Xia Ze's autograph, taking a photo with Xia Ze or saying a few words with Xia Ze.

This startled Xia Ze. Although the business was booming, he never dared to show up in the store again the next day.

Even so, in the next few days, the flow of people in the store did not decrease at all, and the turnover of other stores around them also benefited from this, and increased a lot.

Most of the people who opened these shops were old neighbors in the community, so a few neighbors intentionally or unintentionally encouraged Xia Ze to go to the store again to attract more people.

But Xia Ze was terrified by the scene that day, so he smiled wryly and rejected the neighbor's "good intentions".

A week after returning to Guangzhou, Wang Xiaolin also came back. Several people met together and went to the KFC restaurant where Xia Ze used to work.

Because they were worried about being recognized by others, both Xia Ze and Zhang Wei put on masks, and each held a beautiful woman by the hand, looking rather weird.

"Do you think that manager is still here?" Xia Ze whispered, with a hint of fear in his tone.

"I said that you are already a Premier League star, so you are still afraid of that manager?" Zhang Wei said angrily.

"Why are you not afraid? Try it. There is a person who keeps threatening to deduct your wages. Let's see if you are afraid!" Xia Ze retorted in a low voice.

Zhang Wei was standing up and talking without pain in his back. He didn't know that the manager often threatened to deduct his salary, which made both himself and Qian Xiaoan afraid of him.

This time he came back to the restaurant mainly to visit Qian Xiaoan. According to the previous contact, it seemed that Qian Xiaoan was still working in this restaurant, and he didn't know what happened to her now.

For this girl who has worked with him for more than a year, although Xia Ze has never had any heterosexual feelings for her, he still has a feeling similar to "brotherhood", so it has been a long time since I haven't seen her, and I miss her a lot.

Entering the restaurant, Xia Ze and Zhang Wei looked around, but they didn't see Qian Xiaoan. In the past, she was usually at the ordering counter. Only when I am unlucky will I be called by the manager to dispose of the garbage.

"These two gentlemen, why do you wear masks? If you are sick, our restaurant will not entertain you."

A cold voice came from behind, and the content of the words made people even more angry. Do you even suspect that several of you are sick, and you don't entertain sick people?

But before Xia Ze could get angry, he felt that the voice was very familiar. Turning around, he saw Qian Xiaoan standing behind her with a smile, and her overalls had been changed into a black suit.

"you……"

"That's right, big star, I've also been promoted, and now I'm the manager of this store." Qian Xiaoan raised his head proudly.
