In the past few days, Old George would instruct Cheng Hao on how to train, but other than that, there was no need to give Cheng Hao any other instructions.
Cheng Hao had learned boxing before, and his boxing experience was not much less than that of old George.
Most of the time, the relationship between boxing agents and boxers is a partnership, and Cheng Hao is undoubtedly a great partner for Old George.
But now Claude is just the opposite.
Claude has no basic knowledge, knows nothing, and has nothing but a little strength.
That's fine, but he also has intellectual disabilities.
Old George had just explained it to him, but in the blink of an eye, he had forgotten it and just stood there stupidly looking at Old George without saying a word.
Old George was able to speak normally at first, but then he started yelling. He kept yelling and yelling... Old George covered his chest and looked at Cheng Hao beside him: "This is the person you want to keep! Look at him! Look at what he looks like!"
Cheng Hao was also a little helpless.
He thought things were simple, but Claude just didn't understand. Even when asked to punch a hundred times, he would innocently say, "I can't count."
It's really normal for old George to be irritable.
Cheng Hao said, "Old George, I'll teach him some simple training first, and we can do the rest later."
Old George snorted and fell silent.
As a very insightful boxing agent, old George saw Claude's talent. Otherwise, he would not have kept Claude.
In fact, when he first kept Claude, his expectations for Claude were even greater than his expectations for Cheng Hao.
After all, not everyone has such natural strength.
result……
After just one morning, Old George couldn't stand it anymore.
Cheng Hao took over Claude's teaching task and first taught Claude how to jump rope.
Claude didn't even know how to jump rope at first, but fortunately he had some talent in sports and learned it quickly.
Seeing this, Cheng Hao pointed to the clock next to him and said, "Look at that clock. When the longer hand moves two spaces, it will stop."
This is Claude's first time training, so he just needs to jump rope for ten minutes.
After Cheng Hao finished his instructions, he started punching the sandbag. After a while, he turned around and found that the time had passed, but Claude was still jumping...
"That's enough... Didn't I tell you to stop after two squares?" Cheng Hao said.
Claude lowered his head nervously: "I don't remember where it was originally..."
Okay... Cheng Hao said, "I'll tell you the time next time."
"Okay!" Claude nodded. "Hey, what's this called? It's really fun!"
"It's called skipping rope." Cheng Hao said, looked at the time, and invited Claude to eat.
Claude's eyes lit up immediately.
Arabella prepared a good lunch, a large pot of beef stew with potatoes, and a large pot of boiled beans for everyone to help themselves to, and of course, bread and cheese.
I don’t know what ingredients were put in the beef stew with potatoes, but it tasted a bit sweet. Cheng Hao was a little uncomfortable with it, but he could accept it because it was meat after all.
Claude was even more acceptable. He had very poor table manners. He would pick the best food first and make a mess on the table.
Although Cheng Hao eats a lot and his eating manners are not elegant, at least he doesn't make people feel rude. But Claude...
Old George couldn't stand it any longer: "Claude! How do you eat? Can't you just eat properly and slowly?"
Claude stopped, a little confused.
Old George added, "You can't drop food on the table! You can't pick up beef with your hands! You can't pick up all the beef! Okay, Acapella, next time, don't serve the beef all at once. You can divide it up."
It was the first time that Cheng Hao knew that Old George could be so talkative.
Seeing Claude looking at a loss, Cheng Hao said, "Old George, let's eat first. He can teach you slowly."
Cheng Hao didn't know what had happened to Old George in the past, but from the few words between him and Arabella, he roughly knew his goal.
He wanted to train a powerful boxer and then bring this boxer back.
Nick had said before that George Sr. was devastated after his failure, but Cheng Hao didn't feel that way at all. Instead, he felt that George Sr. was a bit ambitious.
Of course, Old George might have acted like this because he met him and saw hope.
But no matter what, an old George like him will definitely do his best to train his boxers.
The one he was supposed to train was Claude, but now he got there first... Cheng Hao felt a little embarrassed when facing Claude.
Because of this embarrassment, Cheng Hao was very patient with Claude - in fact, if you treat Claude as a child, things will be much simpler.
He was even willing to go through the trouble of teaching the deaf-mute Danny to read, so what was the big deal about teaching Claude?
Since there was a game that night, Cheng Hao's training in the afternoon was not heavy. Since he had time anyway, he simply took Claude to adapt to life in Old George's house.
After Chester abandoned Claude, he ran away. However, Old George agreed to let Claude stay and arranged a room for him. If nothing unexpected happens, Claude will live with Old George in the future.
Cheng Hao helped Claude, who was filthy and hadn't showered in ages, take a bath. He also asked Old George for some old clothes for Claude and taught him how to use a toothbrush...
All of this was extremely troublesome to do. Although Claude could take care of himself, he had poor living habits and was reluctant to take a bath.
After all the trouble, Cheng Hao was a little tired.
When he came out of Claude's room, he felt relieved and saw Old George.
Old George looked at Cheng Hao with a complicated expression, and finally said: "You are quite skilled in taking care of people."
"After all, I have experience." Cheng Hao said.
He had taken care of teenagers who were sent to learn boxing before, and he had also taken care of Danny, so he had a lot of experience.
Old George said, "Call him to dinner."
Well, Cheng Hao didn’t need to shout, Claude came out after hearing the sound.
After having dinner at Old George's house, Cheng Hao and Old George went to the bar together.
In the past, Old George would stay in the bar during the day, but now he takes Cheng Hao to train during the day, so the bar has to wait until five or six o'clock to open.
But the timing is actually just right.
This time when they went to the bar, they brought Claude with them.
That day, Claude was scolded by Old George many times, but Cheng Hao was very gentle to him, so he followed Cheng Hao closely.
He actually has a slight hunchback, or maybe it's not a hunchback, but the muscles in his shoulders are too big... Looking at it this way, the way he walks really does look a bit like a bear.
Cheng Hao finally understood why his nickname was Black Bear.
They had dinner early, so it was only around five o'clock when they arrived at the bar. Old George opened the door and started cleaning the bar.
Seeing this, Cheng Hao took a broom to help clean, and gave Claude a rag and asked him to help clean.
Old George was obviously very satisfied with Cheng Hao's behavior. He didn't even bother cleaning and just strolled around the bar with his hands behind his back.
But he only took a stroll.
Soon, he noticed that the tables that Claude had wiped were all wet and had to be wiped again...
"Claude! Can't you even wipe the table?!" Old George yelled, his voice echoing in the empty bar.
Claude held the rag, his face blank: "I can..."
Old George: "Haha!" He finally understood why Claude's younger brother abandoned his brother and ran away!
The bar hired workers, and they arrived quickly. After everyone cleaned up the bar, customers began to arrive one after another, including the boxers.
Nick likes to sell insurance in the bar and always comes early. When he arrives, he goes straight to Cheng Hao.
"Cheng, I didn't expect Old George to be willing to be your agent." Nick looked at Cheng Hao enviously and said, "You shouldn't be short of money now, right? Do you want to buy insurance?"
Cheng Hao: "No, I'm still short of money."
Nick could only leave in disappointment.
Seeing Nick leave, Cheng Hao explained everything around him to Claude. After introducing everything, he went into Old George's office and asked, "Old George, who is my opponent today?"
Old George said, "Carpenter will be here today, and he will be your opponent."
"Are you kidding?" Cheng Hao was stunned.
His previous opponents were all people who were equally strong or slightly stronger than him, arranged by Old George, so he won every time. But now... Old George wants him to fight Carpenter?
Carpenter was stronger than any boxer he had ever fought before, and Cheng Hao knew very well that he would lose.
The time he spent traveling through time was too short.
Old George said, "You should see a stronger opponent."
Old George's face was full of seriousness. Cheng Hao met his gaze and could only say, "Okay."
As soon as the news of the fight between Cheng Hao and Carpenter was released, both the boxers and the audience were excited.
Nick approached Cheng Hao again: "Although Carpenter always made mistakes in predicting the outcome of your battles, he is really amazing... Take care."
"I will." Cheng Hao said.
Nick sighed. "You should have bought insurance earlier... Carpenter's punches are really powerful. Someone challenged him before, and he broke his ribs. Luckily, that person bought insurance."
Cheng Hao: “…”
Nick was so focused on selling insurance that he was gentle towards Cheng Hao. However, the other fighters were gloating: "Cheng, you better be careful."
"If you can't win, you can admit defeat."
"If I were you, I wouldn't play today."
…
Cheng Hao felt a little helpless, but it was impossible not to compete.
He knew he would lose, but he also wanted to see how good Carpenter was.
Cheng Hao drank some water and sat in the lounge to rest. At this time, Carpenter came.
As soon as he came in, he walked towards Cheng Hao: “Cheng, I didn’t expect that Old George would like you… It seems that I have good taste.”
"Thank you." Cheng Hao said.
"But when we fight, I won't hold back... You'd better give up this match." Carpenter said.
"No need, I won't give up the competition." Cheng Hao said. If a boxer doesn't participate in the competition because he is afraid or thinks he can't win... then there is really no need for him to be a boxer.
"Okay, then let's have a good fight." Carpenter: "Of course, I think you're going to lose badly."
