Old George called for the doctor, though it was of no use.
Carpenter won this battle, but he was punched by Cheng Hao when he was in the ring, and then punched by Claude when he was off the ring, his face was swollen, and the corners of his mouth were torn.
He couldn't help hissing, glaring at Claude.
Old George gave Cheng Hao a wink to let Cheng Hao take Claude away, and then said to Carpenter: "Carpenter, my old man, this kid is a fool, don't bother with him."
Carpenter and old George are old friends. Old George helped Carpenter in the early years, and Carpenter didn't really care about it, but: "I was beaten by someone at your place, you have to cheer me up Loss fee!"
"No problem!" Old George happily agreed.
Carpenter took the money, but he was not very happy: "Really, I was the one who was optimistic about Cheng Hao first, but you took advantage of it..."
The corner of Old George's mouth hooked up immediately.
Speaking of Cheng Hao, Carpenter thought of the person who punched him, among other things, the punch this person punched was really powerful...
If he could be made into a boxer...
This thought flashed through Carpenter's mind, but he quickly gave up. It's okay for this man to be a bit stupid, and he punched him!
Carpenter left with a rich appearance fee, and at this time, Cheng Hao and Claude were eating burgers outside the lounge together.
Cheng Hao felt a little guilty towards Claude before, and just now Claude helped him hit Carpenter in the early days, and his feelings for Claude became more complicated. After sharing some of the hamburgers that others gave him to Claude, Cheng Hao thanked him earnestly, and told Claude not to hit people casually in the future: "When others bully you, you can fight back, but don't hit people for no reason. do you know?"
Claude nodded, but he didn't necessarily remember it—with his memory, he probably forgot the words in a blink of an eye.
At this moment, someone else was playing on stage, and Cheng Hao watched the game while talking to Claude: "What do you want to do in the future?"
"I want to have a job." Claude thought for a while.
His thoughts were very simple, Cheng Hao asked: "Why?"
"If you have a job, you will have a meal." Claude said.
"Have you ever had a job before?"
"There was, but it will be gone soon." Claude was very disappointed.
Cheng Hao was not surprised by Claude's answer.
Claude is incompetent for many jobs, and he can't even write his own name.
For him, boxing is really a very rare job that allows him to support himself.
If he didn't learn to box, couldn't box, and Old George wouldn't give him asylum and let him live at home, what would his life be like in the future
Cheng Hao pointed to the ring and said: "Boxing is a job. Its job content is to compete with others in the ring. As long as you win, you can make a lot of money."
Claude looked in the direction of the ring, his eyes lit up: "Can I eat meat every day?"
"Of course." Cheng Hao said.
Claude laughed, took out the meat in the burger and ate it first, and then ate the bread outside.
Cheng Hao thought of Chester who first scooped out the sausage from the sausage sandwich and ate it, and thought of Lin Yuxun who liked to save the delicious ones for last.
Cheng Hao put the best-tasting hamburger in his arms, and then went to say goodbye to old George, and took his money today by the way.
Although he can only get 1% of the bet today, no matter how small a mosquito's legs are, it's still meat!
As a result, old George actually gave him a hundred dollars.
"So much money?" Cheng Hao was a little surprised.
Old George said: "Of course not. Although there are a lot of people betting on your match with Carpenter today, you can only get fifty yuan...the more is the commission from the things you sell."
"Commission for selling things?" Cheng Hao was a little surprised. He knew that he could get a commission for selling wine, but he had never sold it.
"Since you came, the hamburgers in the bar have been selling well." Old George said.
Cheng Hao: "..."
Old George asked again: "You are injured, are you sure you want to go back? I remember that your home is a little far away...you can live with me."
"My brother is waiting for me at home." Cheng Hao said.
Old George said: "Then go back quickly."
Cheng Hao's game against Carpenter was relatively late today, and it was delayed for a while after the game, so that it was past midnight when he left the bar.
On the way, he passed the community entertainment center and saw a large number of young people gathered there, many of whom were underage.
Those people are all very well dressed. They wear branded watches, rings and necklaces, double-breasted men's coats, fur capes, and shoes are all crocodile leather. They look out of place with the people in this community.
But they really are people in this community.
They are all thieves or scammers in this community.
They will go to other communities to steal things, and after selling the money, they will use it all to eat, drink and have fun, wearing colorful clothes to show off... They like others to look at them with envy.
Cheng Hao knew that they were not good people, but he also knew that they didn't want to be like this.
They will be like this, mainly due to the lack of education, whether it is family education or school education.
Not long after Cheng Hao passed the gathering point of those people, he saw a lot of people rushing out from the gathering point. These people were all driving motorcycles. The sound of woo woo whistling through the streets at night.
While driving, they even threw stones at the glass of surrounding houses.
When Cheng Hao came near his home, when he looked up, he found that there was still light coming from the windows of the house where he lived.
Lin Yuxun was probably still awake.
Cheng Hao touched his injured nose, and went upstairs lightly. After entering the door, he found a fragrance coming from the room.
Lin Yuxun was sitting at the dining table writing something while reading a book. Beef soup was still boiling in the pot next to him.
"Cheng Hao!" Hearing the voice, Lin Yuxun raised his head happily, and then his expression changed again.
Cheng Hao's face was blue and swollen...
"Old George arranged for me to fight Carpenter today, and I was punched in the face." Cheng Hao explained.
Lin Yuxun clenched his lips.
Cheng Hao took out the hamburger he had kept before and the one hundred dollars given by old George, and gave it to Lin Yuxun: "Come on, eat a hamburger! A lot of things happened today, and I want to tell you about it."
Hearing Cheng Hao's words, Lin Yuxun raised his head and looked at Cheng Hao.
Cheng Hao filled two bowls of soup, handed a bowl to Lin Yuxun, and told Lin Yuxun about Claude while drinking.
Hearing that Chester's mother had died, Lin Yuxun's expression changed: "Is she dead?"
"You know her?" Cheng Hao asked.
"We used to be neighbors." Lin Yuxun said: "At that time, my mother had no money, so we found an abandoned building to live in, and they also lived in it."
"Abandoned building?" Cheng Hao was curious.
Lin Yuxun pointed to the west and said: "There are a few dilapidated houses over there, and there is no water and electricity. If someone can't pay the rent, they will live there, but we didn't live for long... Later my mother earned money. money."
When it comes to "making money", Lin Yuxun's expression is not very good-looking.
Cheng Hao knew what he was thinking, and he smiled: "Then did you meet Claude?"
Lin Yuxun said: "Yes, he was very stupid. He was not young at that time, and he always looked for his mother. At that time, people often bullied him. He usually ignored those people, but if someone made him angry, he would Catch those people and throw them out."
After Cheng Hao finished drinking the soup, his whole body became warm: "Let's go to bed early."
Lin Yuxun's illness has recovered, and the thermometer borrowed from Beverly has been secretly returned, but even if the illness recovers, it will be easily contagious for a period of time, so Danny still sleeps alone.
Cheng Hao took a shower and got into bed, and asked, "When will the heating be available?" It's strange to say that in this poor community, many people don't even have jobs, but their rented houses basically have heating. There are electrical appliances such as TV sets, refrigerators, and washing machines.
"In a few days, it should be there." Lin Yuxun said.
Cheng Hao responded and fell asleep in a daze.
When Cheng Hao woke up the next day, it was already past eight o'clock in the morning.
He got up, washed up briefly, then hugged Danny, threw Danny into the air, and caught Danny when he fell.
Danny laughed, and laughed out loud.
"Danny looks so pretty when he smiles." Cheng Hao kissed his forehead, and then said to Lin Yuxun: "Lin Yuxun, you are getting more and more handsome now!"
Lin Yuxun blushed upon hearing this.
Cheng Hao said a few words to them and went to old George.
When he arrived at Old George's, Arabella was cleaning the yard. Seeing him, Arabella opened the door: "Good morning, dear Cheng!"
"Good morning, Arabella." Cheng Hao said, "Is old George up yet?"
"He hasn't gotten up yet, but Claude is already up." Arabella said, and as soon as she finished speaking, Claude came out.
Old George's old clothes looked a little tight on Claude, but when he saw Cheng Hao, he immediately raised his hand, with a big smile on his face: "Cheng!"
"Good morning, Claude." Cheng Hao greeted him with a smile.
Claude was obviously very happy: "Morning!"
Breakfast was not eaten until old George got up, but Arabella gave them each a bacon sandwich. After Cheng Hao ate the sandwich, he took Claude to exercise.
After one night, Claude forgot most of what Cheng Hao taught yesterday: "What are push-ups?"
Cheng Hao got down on the ground and showed him.
Although Claude is a bit stupid and his brain is not good, he still knows how to follow others. Seeing Cheng Hao doing this, he got down on the ground and did push-ups.
Seeing this, Cheng Hao started training with him.
When Cheng Hao finally couldn't hold on and get down... Claude also got down.
Cheng Hao, who was lying on the ground, looked at Claude, who was also lying on the ground, but his face was not red and he was not panting, and asked while panting: "You...why don't...don't do it? Are you tired? Huh..."
Claude looked at Cheng Hao blankly: "I will learn from you."
Cheng Hao: "..." Well...
Cheng Hao has always been satisfied with the original owner's body. Although Cheng Jinhao has not experienced high-intensity training before, his physical fitness is considered good.
But now he met Claude.
Cheng Hao found that the amount of training that exhausted him could only make Claude gasp.
It's so enviable...
When the two were training, Old George finally came down from upstairs, and they could officially have breakfast.
Then, old George drank black coffee, ate a sandwich with only a little bacon on it, and looked at the three people in front of him who were feasting on the plate full of bacon with a troubled face: "You three! Pay attention to body management Do you know? Body management!"
Arabella pretended not to hear, Cheng Hao said: "Old George, I'm very thin, I need to eat more."
Cheng Hao is indeed not fat, and it is difficult for Old George to say anything. As a result, at this time, Claude said: "What is body management?"
Old George: "..."
As soon as he had a good breakfast and couldn't skip rope, Cheng Hao and Claude went to play sandbags together.
The feel of the sandbag is different from that of a human being, but punch after punch made Cheng Hao more and more familiar with his own strength, and it also made his strength stronger and stronger during training.
Cheng Hao likes this feeling.
But when he turned his head and saw Claude punching the sandbag far away, he felt a little depressed.
If he had Claude's strength, he would have beaten Carpenter to the ground last night!
When Claude punched, he didn't have any rules. It was easy to hurt his bones. Cheng Hao walked towards him and guided his movements.
Although Claude may forget after a while after the guidance, he still needs guidance.
Moreover, boxing is a sport after all, and it is relatively simple. Once Claude forms muscle memory, he will definitely be able to fight well.
Thinking of this, Cheng Hao recalled the year when Claude appeared in the boxing ring in his previous life.
It seems that he suddenly appeared on the field in 1985, and then in 1986, he was beaten until he was paralyzed and disappeared...
Think about it this way... Claude, who is in very good physical condition and who is familiar with the rules, can go to boxing now. It will take at least five years to figure out boxing
When Cheng Hao thought that it would take such a long time for Claude to understand what punching was all about, he immediately gave himself some psychological training, and then when facing Claude, his attitude was more gentle.
Anyway, it's already like this, take your time!
Of course, slow down, training must not be less.
Cheng Hao took Claude to train together, and probably because his expectations for Claude were too low, he was very satisfied with Claude doing small things casually.
"Great, Claude, you have great strength!"
"It should be like this, remember, do it again."
"Very good! That's it! Wait, I'll show you one more time."
…
Cheng Hao was quite patient, but Old George was dissatisfied, and said to Cheng Hao: "Are you going to waste all your time on him? Go to training!"
"I'll go right away!" Cheng Hao went to the side for training and handed Claude to Old George.
As a result, after a while, only old George's roar remained in the room: "I told you, I told you to punch like this, why don't you punch like this?"
"I've said it dozens of times! Dozens of times!"
"God! How could you be such a stupid person?!"
"Try again! Do as I say!"
Old George's voice was very loud, but it was precisely because of his loud voice that Claude was so frightened that he didn't dare to punch anymore.
In the end, amidst Old George's roar, he cautiously and lightly stretched out a completely powerless fist.
Old George slapped his fist: "I can't teach you! Get lost!"
Claude burst into tears: "Please, please don't drive me out..."
"Old George, let me teach you." Cheng Hao stood up.
Old George said: "You teach! I don't want to see him again."
Old George left after speaking, but Claude stood there uneasy.
Cheng Hao patted Claude Wei'an on the shoulder: "It's okay, Claude, old George won't really drive you away."
"Really?" Claude looked at Cheng Hao.
"of course it's true."
"But I can't do anything, I can't do anything well..." Claude was extremely uneasy: "He will definitely drive me away, and they will all drive me away."
"No, you are very good!" Cheng Hao said: "You have great strength, you are a natural boxer, you will definitely become the strongest heavyweight boxing champion in the world!"
Claude stared blankly at Cheng Hao.
Cheng Hao said: "Come on, let's train!"
Claude was dumbfounded by old George's scolding just now, and he was a little afraid to punch, but Cheng Hao praised him, and he slowly recovered.
"Awesome! That's it!"
"Claude, you are so strong, you are so powerful!"
"you are amazing!"
…
Cheng Hao taught Claude for a while, then asked him to skip rope, and then continued training by himself.
Old George walked over with his hands behind his back: "I didn't expect you to be able to boast to a fool! Just listening to your voice, I will feel that I and you are not the same person!"
Cheng Hao said: "Children need praise."
Old George sneered: "You are three years younger than him!"
Cheng Hao: "..."
Old George said again: "Also, didn't you say that you will become the most powerful heavyweight boxing champion in the world? Why do you say that he will be the most powerful now?"
"..." Cheng Hao said: "Old George, you trained the world's most powerful and two heavyweight boxers. What an exciting thing! You will be happy, right?"
Old George looked at Cheng Hao, he stared at Cheng Hao for a while, and suddenly smiled.
Old George seldom smiled, and Cheng Hao was not used to seeing him smile: "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing," Old George said, "There will be a very good game in a few days, I will take you to participate, you prepare."
"Okay, no problem!" Cheng Hao said: "By the way, where is the competition held?"
Old George said a place.
"That's a bit far." Cheng Hao said.
"So we'll stay there for one night," Old George said.
Cheng Hao suddenly thought of something: "Old George, can I bring my two younger brothers?"
"What did you take them for?" asked old George.
"I want them to see the prosperity of the big city, and my brother will probably want to buy some books there." Cheng Hao said. Lin Yuxun reads books very quickly, and Cheng Hao thinks that he should want to buy some more books.
If he has time, he can also take Lin Yuxun to see the school there.
Old George took a look at Cheng Hao: "I drove there by myself, there are seats, you can take them with you."
"Thank you, old George." Cheng Hao looked at old George gratefully: "You are such a good man!"
Old George was a little uncomfortable, and said ferociously: "I haven't finished my sentence yet! Listen, since you have brought people away, you must manage them well, and you must not let them cause trouble for me. I hate trouble!"
"Don't worry, they are all very well-behaved people, very obedient." Cheng Hao said.
Old George said "hehe" twice. He wanted to say that a fool like Claude, Cheng Hao thought he was so smart that he could keep boasting. His words were really hard to believe.
But he didn't say it.
He stood by and watched Cheng Hao try his best to teach Claude, and he was in a complicated mood for a while.
Is this person stupid? He actually gave his heart and soul to his competitors!
Claude's physical condition is the best boxer he has ever seen, but he has a mental problem. If he is not taught, he will definitely be useless in the future. Even if he is taught... most people will not be able to teach because of their temper.
There happened to be Cheng Hao who taught him so seriously.
Old George took a deep breath, suddenly full of hope for the future.
In this world, there is always no shortage of beautiful people and things.
