mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 686: Keep silent and get the medal

The review of players' amateur status has caused strong dissatisfaction in the United States, France, Italy, Canada and other countries.

The British did this.

They held this Olympics with great success. The British people's pride of "the sun never sets", coupled with the strong national pride that has recently developed, allowed them to create many rules.

It must be different, and it won’t work for anyone.

When it’s the turn of Chinese players to sign up.

The staff asked Wang Long: "What is your amateur status?"

At this time, athletes from many countries do not receive subsidies and have to rely on their own work to earn money for training.

Therefore, the so-called amateur status should actually be the main job, and participating in the competition is amateur.

In fact, the staff also had some headaches. The rules were set, but the United States, France, Italy, Canada and other major countries were not easy to handle. They tried every means to resist, and they were extremely sarcastic when speaking.

The staff heard that these people from the Qing Dynasty were not good people, and they thought Wang Long would make a mockery.

However, Wang Long just said lightly: "I am a cook."

Liu Baoguo, who was standing next to him as a translator, relayed the words.

The staff member raised an eyebrow: "How to prove it?"

Wang Long took out a kitchen knife from his back, ignored the staff's horror, and took out the peeled potatoes, aggressively...

The knife skills are very exquisite and the posture is very standard for cutting.

Foreign chefs don’t know much about knife skills. Where have the staff seen this before?I was stunned for a while.

After Wang Long finished cutting, he said to him: "If you have a pot, I can give you French fries, and even ketchup is ready."

The staff member wiped the sweat from his forehead: "No need, no need, next person..."

Wang Long and Liu Guogui looked at each other and smiled.

That's it?

At that time, Liu Guoguo was a little overwhelmed when he heard that amateur status would be reviewed.

But Miao Cuihua reminded that not all people in the insurance team are born warriors.

For example, before joining the insurance team, Wang Long was indeed an apprentice cook.

Even those who have been idle and idle for a long time will most likely have hobbies when they join the insurance team.

The second contestant: "I am a farmer, farming."

"how to prove?"

"In leap months, fields are farmed dry. In February, the Qingming wheat comes first, and in March, the Qingming wheat comes behind. After the awning, don't force planting..."

"I've passed, I've passed, I've passed..."

Is it okay to recite small texts?

"I'm a theater performer, let me give you a piece - it's the New Year in the first month of the year... It's the first day of the new year..."

"Pass, pass..."

The versatility of the members of the insurance team attracted a group of Brits and IOC staff.

I blanch, that’s really versatile.

For example, the knife skills of foreign cooks cannot be compared with those of Chinese cooks.

Some people sang duets, some recited solar terms songs, some danced a war dance, some cast a net and pretended to fish, some played an erhu, some performed basketball, dribbled and dazzled people with the ball at the crotch, and some could act like a salesman. The oil man passes the wine through the copper coins like that...Miao Cuihua claims that she is a teacher, proficient in Chinese and English, understands history, and answers all kinds of questions fluently...

People around him exclaimed in surprise from time to time, which was really unexpected.

The rest of the countries are lackluster, and people looking for trouble abound.

Comparing the two, the International Olympic Committee looks at Qing athletes with admiration.

The first hurdle was passed safely.

At the second level, the British host arrogantly stated that all delegations should dress uniformly and line up under the guidance of their respective national flags.

This is a first of its kind, and will be the case in future Olympic Games.

But now, it has caught all delegations off guard.

Their occupations include candy merchants, chefs, and artists... First of all, they lined up to enter, but they had never practiced at all. They also needed to rehearse and had to sharpen their guns before the battle. Secondly, their clothes needed to be re-unified and customized. No, it should be said that they were rushed.

Looking back at the Lugang Town Insurance Team, before they came, several clothing stores and tailor shop sponsors had provided unified training uniforms, competition sportswear, admission uniforms and sports shoes.

These are the sponsorships that Liu Guogui went to solicit.

Because the insurance team has always been uniformly dressed, the same is true for the sportswear produced.

Secondly, the insurance team has to line up for training every day and has its own set of standards. There is no need to practice at all when lining up to enter.

It was just the dragon flag of the Qing Dynasty that made Liu Guogui feel conflicted, but he was helpless.In short, they passed this level successfully.

The third level is the entry sequence for the opening ceremony.

The Lugang Town team was required to be behind Bohemia, South Africa and Turkey, which was the last place.

After hearing this, Wang Long went straight to the pot and said, "Blanch the damn ones. I'll take a few heads while it's dark and they'll learn to behave!"

"Don't make trouble." Liu Guogui didn't take it seriously: "Do you know what the finale means? Haha, just wait and see."

What's even more bizarre is that although the opening ceremony is being prepared, the competition must be played first, rather than the opening ceremony being held two or three months after the game.

The matter was put aside for the time being. Liu Guoguo held his breath and led his team members to prepare for the game with peace of mind.

……

Wang changed his name and couldn't stand Zhao Chuanxin's nagging, so he finally went to Liangzhou City.

Since then, injured swordsmen often fly to the sky to recuperate, and the number is increasing day by day.

Tianfei's business has gotten surprisingly better.

"Oh, you're welcome, Baldy, hurry up and get ready for a room." Zhao Chuanxin greeted the new customer.

Before Li Guangzong sent the funds, the swordsmen who came to the sky to recuperate from their injuries were a very important source of income.

The swordsman with the scar on his face resembles the old wolf that shepherds the sheep.

He hesitated for a moment: "Shopkeeper, can you pay less?"

"Hate, what are you talking about? It's like I'm taking advantage of money. We are very hospitable when we fly in the sky." Zhao Chuanxin complained, and finally said simply: "No!"

Swordsman: "..."

Another swordsman sneered: "Brother, don't mention the money. If you mention the money, we won't be so affectionate. Pay the money happily, and Shopkeeper Zhao can keep you safe and heal your injuries."

The swordsman sighed: "It's not easy to make a living in the world, Shopkeeper Zhao."

"It's never easy to make money. In fact, everyone is equally tired from running around." Zhao Chuanxin agreed: "The difference is that we all earn more than you."

"..." The swordsman was dissatisfied: "The tiger fell down and was bullied by the dog."

"Don't be disappointed, this may not be the lowest point in your life." Zhao Chuanxin was not angry: "In the days to come, you will be at your peak now."

The more the swordsman listened, the more uncomfortable he became. He handed over the money speechlessly and followed Guo Tuwa to his room.

When Gulizar saw Zhao Chuanxin holding the money bag in his hand, his eyes were filled with little stars: "Xin Zhao, you are so amazing. No one else can make as much money as you from doing business."

"Do you think this is great? Do you think you have a lot of money? Do you think I am very smart?" Zhao Chuanxin sneered: "Gulizar, I can only tell you that everything you said is right."

Gulizar smiled and bent over.

This year is undoubtedly the happiest year of her life.

Flying in the sky, the sheep have endless grass to eat and are looked after by the old wolf.

She does laundry and cooking, helps take care of the sky, and walks around Zhao Chuanxin every day. When she is awake, she is more active than a bee, and more diligent than an ant. When she is sleeping, she is unable to wake up.

And Zhao Chuanxin always makes her laugh.

This kind of life should not be too beautiful.

At this time, Gulizal saw a buck-toothed child holding a piece of paper outside the window, so he went out and asked: "Little mouse, what is this?"

The little mouse shook the newspaper in his hand: "Knowledge, this is knowledge."

Gulizal held up her cowboy hat. She couldn't read the newspaper: "What's the point of learning?"

"Knowledge can make me prosperous and make me marry Miss He."

Zhao Chuanxin, who followed him out, smiled: "Little mouse, if you like that Miss He, you should study hard and work hard to earn money in the future."

The little mouse held the newspaper in distress: "Does this allow me to marry Miss He? But what should I do if she is older than me?"

"No." Zhao Chuanxin said, "This way, when Miss He gets married, you can have more money with me."

"..." The little mouse was extremely disappointed and sighed like a little adult.

Zhao Chuanxin snatched the newspaper from his hand and said: "How old are you, and you still miss women? You are really worthless. You even held the newspaper upside down, and you are still knowledgeable."

He casually read the newspaper, but was stunned.

"I boil..."

The newspaper stated that athletes from Lugang Town of the Qing Dynasty delegation participated in the London Olympics and won two gold medals and one silver medal.

The gold medal winners are named Liu Jiahui, the other is named Wang Long, and the silver medal winner is named Miao Cuihua...

From the author's writing style, it is not difficult to see how excited he was when writing this report, and even a little incoherent.
