The season has ended and the celebration is still continuing, but the Leicester base in Leiden East has become deserted. After the league is over, all the players have already started their vacation and are waiting for the next season to come.

Xiao Ming was looking at the financial statements of last season in the office. Kaft was an accountant with excellent ability, and the financial statements placed in front of Xiao Ming were quite detailed.

Before the start of last season, Leiden Oriental invested 350,000 pounds in the transfer market and earned 210,000 pounds by selling players. At the same time, due to the team's outstanding performance last season, Leiden Oriental's home attendance rate was quite high, with an average income of 40,000 pounds per home. In addition, the ticket share, broadcast fee share and bonus obtained in several cup matches, Leiden Oriental's income was close to 1.5 million pounds, which is already quite terrifying for a British-Central team.

The revenue exceeding expectations on tickets has made Leiden Oriental earn a slight surplus this season after deducting various expenses. Before the start of the season, Xiao Ming invested more than 2 million yuan on the books, which is now close to three million yuan. This also made Xiao Ming feel relieved. His other assets are now trapped in the stock market. www.piaotian.comdowww.piaotian.comdows95 will be so popular in the future!

When Xiao Ming bought Microsoft stocks last year, the price per share was only about five dollars. Before the US court accused Microsoft of monopoly in 1999, Microsoft's stock price was as high as nearly one hundred dollars, which means that Xiao Ming doesn't need to do anything now, and his property will increase by nearly twenty times by that time! He, who is familiar with history, naturally would not make such a mistake.

However, this means that in the past few years, Xiao Ming’s funds on hand are just the ones on the books.

The task is heavy and the road is long, Xiao Ming sighed.

At this time, the office door was knocked, and Miss Ella said outside the door: "Xiao, David wants to see you."

Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment. Isn’t it already on vacation? Beckham’s loan period has ended. Why did he come to see him at this time? After the season ended, he called Ferguson, hoping to keep Beckham, but was rejected by Ferguson again, so he died and left Beckham’s heart. Besides, if Beckham really stayed in Leiden East, he might not have the fame and status in the future - at least in Leiden East, he would not have the chance to meet the hot girl Victoria for the time being. If he did not marry Victoria, his performance on the court alone might not be able to become the heartthrob of later generations - no one can deny this woman’s social ability in the entertainment industry. It is her support that allowed Beckham to have a higher appearance rate than other stars.

"Boss, we are here to say goodbye to you," Beckham said straight to the point: "For more than half a season, I have been having a great time in Leiden East. Under your hands, I have discovered that I can do other things on the court. This is very important to me. Before leaving, I think I have to say thank you."

Xiao Ming smiled. So that's the case. It seems that Beckham is still a very nostalgic person... Looking at his current appearance, if Leiden East level could be higher, and he was born in the Walthamsto area, it would not be very difficult to dig him over.

"Mr. Ferguson has called me and promised me that I will be the main player next season. Andre went to Everton and Keith will be sold to Newcastle. If not, I really want to stay in Leiden East." Beckham said sincerely.

"No need to do this, David, I discovered your ability to pass long in the backcourt, mainly because you have this ability. Mr. Ferguson is a very outstanding coach and Manchester United is also a strong team. There you can get enough training. The Premier League and the Champions League, these things are something that Leiden Oriental cannot give you now." Xiao Ming smiled and said sincerely: "I am very happy that you can think of saying goodbye to me today. Really, David, I am only a few years older than you. Let's be friends in the future... However, if Leiden Oriental meets you in the game after it is promoted to the Premier League, I will not show mercy."

Seeing Xiao Ming blinking at himself, Beckham also laughed. What he said just now was the truth. If Manchester United still had Kanchelsky and Gillespie, he might have no chance to play at Manchester United, because being able to play is better than sitting on the bench, and the potential shown by Leiden Oriental also made him believe that his hometown team will not always stay in the low league. But now Ferguson has shown enough sincerity to send away two stars who match him in order to free him up time and position to play. Although Manchester United gave the league championship to Blackburn last season because of the final round of the draw, he could be a team that has won two Premier League championships and regular visitors to the Champions League, Manchester United's attractiveness is countless times greater than Leiden Oriental.

What's more, it was Manchester United that trained him. It's reasonable that Beckham could not choose Manchester United and Leiden Oriental without choosing Manchester United.

"Would you like to listen to my last advice before leaving?" Xiao Ming said seriously after laughing.

"I'd love to listen." Beckham nodded.

"I believe that after playing as the main player at Manchester United, you will definitely become famous quickly because you have everything, strength, appearance... You may become a miracle among players in the future, a unique miracle, but you have to remember one thing." Xiao Ming looked at Beckham's eyes and said slowly: "In essence, you are a player, and it is football that brings you everything. Everything you get off the court can be supported by your performance on the court. Without football, you are nothing, so in any case, keep your form and perform at a high level on the court, and everything you have will last forever."

Beckham listened carefully. He did not understand all Xiao Ming's words, but he remembered every word. So much so that when he was sent off by a red card in the World Cup, got into a feud with Ferguson at Manchester United, and was excluded from Real Madrid by Capello from the main lineup, he would always think of this passage, and then use his performance to win the opportunity to play again...

"I will remember, boss." Beckham nodded to Xiao Ming: "No matter what, I will remember my days in Leiden East. Although it only lasted half a season, it is very important to me."

After Beckham left, Xiao Ming sat in the office chair and was stunned for a long time, then shook his head.

"Dog Day Ferguson, I'll help you discover Beckham's talent in other places, and you actually called! Either lend me a few outstanding young players or give me some training fees... so fucking stingy!"

After cursing a few words in his heart, Xiao Ming smiled again: "Hehe, since you are so stingy, I won't blame me for starting the first... Oh, I know that what happened later is so boring, and there is a lot of fun..."

Xiao Ming was quite a bit obedient when he got a bargain.

In July, Xiao Ming came to Norway, across the sea from England.

For the mainstream European football circle now, although Norway, Denmark and Sweden have many outstanding players, not many people have noticed this. Except for the Danish national team's outstanding performance in the 92 European Cup, the brothers such as Schmeichel and Lauderup played in the five major European leagues, the rest of the players are basically still playing in their own teams.

No one knows how many uncensored jades are buried in it, Sand, Raulson, Jorgensen, Flo, and Yongbery... These famous names that will be famous in the future are still unknown now, and not many people have noticed them. For Xiao Ming, this is a huge treasure house.

However, Xiao Ming did not intend to capture all these future stars in one go. First, Leiden Oriental is not famous enough now, and second, Leiden Oriental's finances are not enough to buy so many players. He can only decide which players to introduce based on the changes in the team's lineup.

Beckham and Carl left, and the right forward and right back were vacant. At the same time, due to their outstanding performance in the Qualification Cup final, Leiden Oriental's top scorer in the UK C last season was also favored by Birmingham, who planned to recruit soldiers in the UK A in the new season. Their head coach Francis personally called Xiao Ming to ask if he could buy Ward, Jin Kraze and Barack.

Xiao Ming's attitude towards this is very simple. Jin Kraze and Barack are both non-selling products. Their contracts with Leiden Oriental were signed in 1999. Before that, any team that wanted to buy them would be exempted from negotiations. As for Ward, it depends on Birmingham's sincerity.

After receiving this news, Francis was not discouraged. Since Leiden East had let go of Ward, it would be better to get one than to get one. Last season, Birmingham really lacked a person who could score goals like Ward, and Ward was also an Englishman. For Birmingham, who has no players in other countries except British and Ireland players, Ward is the person they need the most.

After some bargaining, Birmingham bleeded heavily and bought Ward for 700,000 pounds. Xiao Ming was also very satisfied with this. After all, it only cost 30,000 pounds to buy Ward at that time, and it was more than twenty times in a year. No matter how you look at it, it was a good deal.

But Xiao Ming knew deeply that for a club, the greatest wealth is players, not others.

This is also the reason why he appeared in Norway's Christian Sander. His goal is the future legendary Manchester United striker, one of the few super substitutes Norwegians Ori Guna Solskjaer in the world.

Originally, Xiao Ming thought that Solskjaer might have been attracted by Manchester United now, and it is still difficult to poach people from Manchester United. However, when he looked through the list of players in all levels of Norway last season, he was surprised to find that Solskjaer is only playing for a C-Clauseningen FK in his birthplace Christian Sand (Norwegian Third League)! Solskjaer, who is a small team, certainly won't attract Manchester United's attention. In fact, he was bought by Manchester United after scoring twenty goals in 26 games in the Norwegian League One strong team next season...

Xiao Ming, overjoyed, immediately rushed to Christian Sand, trying to find an ordinary person in a city that is no less than looking for a needle in a haystack. However, Solskjaer is now quite famous in the local area. After some inquiries, Xiao Ming finally found Solskjaer's home.

The 22-year-old Solskjaer still has a baby face and a childish look. People never expect that he will become a terrifying substitute killer in the future. When he heard Xiao Ming explain his purpose, Solskjaer did not look very happy, because just a few days ago, Mold, a strong team in the Norwegian League One, came to him, hoping to introduce the 22-year-old striker.

Molde is one of the strong teams in the Norwegian league. Although they do not have the qualification to participate in European competitions in the new season, they can attract more attention when playing in Norway's highest league. Although Leiden Oriental is an English team, it is only a third-tier team, and it is still promoted. Compared with Molde, it is not very attractive...

"Damn it, it's one step late, but there is still room for remedy." Xiao Ming began to deeply feel the lack of attractiveness of Leiden Oriental. Just like Ward's departure, Xiao Ming was not willing to let Ward go. In his opinion, there would be no problem with using this player to play in the League One. However, although Birmingham lost to Leiden Oriental, they were still one level higher than Leiden Oriental. For Ward himself, it was also an opportunity to enter a higher-level league.

Fortunately, Jin Kraze and Barack don’t have many teams to like, especially those top teams that can pose a threat, otherwise Xiao Ming would be even more depressed.

"Ori, listen to me." Xiao Ming looked sincere, like an agent who was devoted to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: "Molde is indeed a team in the Norwegian top league, but you have to know that for the current mainstream European leagues, the three Nordic countries will not care too much about Norway and Sweden's players except Denmark. The reason is very simple. Denmark was the European champion three years ago, and Norway and Sweden have no results now. No matter how outstanding you perform in Norway, it will not attract too many people's attention. Yes, we are just the third-level team, but last season we entered the top 16 of the League Cup, and the opponent we lost to was the final champion Liverpool, and we entered the FA Cup.

Entering the fourth round, the opponent who lost to Everton, who won the championship... What does this mean? It means we have the strength to achieve better honors! It means we won't stay in the English Boutique for a long time! You should know that we will strive for better results in the League Cup and the FA Cup next season. If you have the opportunity to play against top teams, it is also your chance to show your strength... Do you think the opportunities you get in Leiden East are not as good as those you get in Molde? What a joke! Our home court is in London! There are countless scouts there paying attention to every game! Last season, our top scorer Ward transferred to Birmingham in the English Bundesliga. Damn it, although I'm not satisfied with this..."

Xiao Ming gritted his teeth, but Solskjaer laughed. He thought the chairman and head coach was so interesting, but his words seemed to make some sense. Playing football in London is much more opportunities than playing football in Norway, right? You must know that you have not been selected for the Norwegian national team yet...

"Well... If my club is willing to let me go, I don't think I will refuse the opportunity to play football in the UK." After laughing, Solskjaer said very simply.

"Okay! I will offer a quote that makes Clausenningen FK and you satisfied." Xiao Ming smiled with satisfaction, poaching the future super substitute of Manchester United in advance, which was a small revenge on Ferguson, right? Sir, if you want to take Solskjaer away in the future, you have to show some sincerity...
