Chapter 159: Oak Bar! A Pilgrimage Check-In Spot!

Three consecutive days of rain have cast a haze over the entire city of London.

The drizzle of rain kept falling, with no intention of stopping.

Every time before summer comes, this long period of light rain is a timely visit.

Faced with the rain that wanders around London, residents have become accustomed to it. They almost don't know how to bring an umbrella, so they put on a waterproof jacket and a hood to go out.

The Oaks Pub, Woolwich, London.

Busy passers-by walked quickly on the street, and the sound of rain dripping down the eaves and onto the ground was like a lullaby, making people sleepy.

Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Meadows finished stocking the bar and sat on the counter, dragging his cheek with one hand and tapping the table with the other, looking bored.

After a while, there was a creaking sound at the door of the bar.

"Sorry! It opens at seven!"

Meadows said lazily.

The man did not leave. Instead, he flicked the rainwater on his clothes at the door, then took off his hood and said with a smile, "I don't think you are opening a store. There is no reason for anyone to drive customers out!"

"Kay?"

Meadows felt refreshed, and he smiled and waved to Lucky.

Lucky walked to the bar and sat down.

Meadows stood up and smiled: "Stout?"

"Milk! Thank you!"

Lucky chuckled.

Meadows couldn't help laughing. He walked aside to pick up a bottle of milk and put it in the microwave to warm it up.

After a while, a cup of hot milk was placed in front of Lucai.

"Is today's training over?"

Meadows asked with a smile.

Lucky took a sip of the milk and it felt a little hot to his mouth, so he continued to drink it, intending to let it cool down a bit.

"It's over, Mourinho asked us to take a little more rest, but I didn't want to take it at home, this kind of weather always brings me down. You know, I don't have many friends in London, so I thought here."

Meadows smiled.

For any fan, it is an extremely honorable thing to be able to become friends with the main player of the Gunners.

What's more, this person is Lucky.

“The store is a little deserted!”

Lucky looked around. There were almost no customers in Meadows' store, and the chairs were all upside down on the table.

Meadows said; "Because there are too many, we have limited the business hours, otherwise we will be too busy. On the busiest days, the wine was sold out within two hours of opening, and there was no room for people to stand in the store. , many people came to stand outside the store to drink!”

"So hot?"

Lucky was a little surprised.

Although the business of the Oak Bar in the past was good, it was far from as popular as Meadows said.

This is more of a gathering place for fans, which means it will be more lively on game days. During normal times, it is mostly regular customers, with few strangers visiting.

In this regard, Meadows shook his head and sighed: "It's mainly the tourists. I don't know who put my store on the Internet, and there are also photos of you, me and Billy, and then this place got a lot of attention." Pay attention, most fans who like Arsenal will come to my store in the evening after completing their trip to the Emirates Stadium, as if this will make them look like die-hard fans!”

"I'm not rejecting them, but diehard fans will start from here!"

Meadows pointed to his heart.

Lucky smiled; "But I feel you are very emotional."

"Of course!" Meadows laughed heartily: "After all, who doesn't like money? Because of those tourists, my daily workload has increased a lot. The purchase of drinks has almost doubled several times, and I have hired several clerks to help. , and then I felt a little relieved.”

"Speaking of which, you haven't been here in a while."

Lucky nodded: "It's probably been close to more than half a year. The competition is too intense and there is no time to rest."

Meadows nodded in approval and then cursed; "This season's schedule is really terrible. If we can reduce the pressure of the Champions League schedule, now"

Meadows complained, and then sighed together with Lucky.

"Billy isn't coming?"

Lucky asked.

Meadows shrugged: "He's given up drinking."

"Quit drinking?" Lucky was surprised. He really couldn't imagine that Billy, who was addicted to alcohol, would quit drinking.

Meadows shook his head and said, "He got sick, it seemed to be a heart attack, so he was hospitalized for a period of time. Since then, he has stopped smoking and drinking, but he will come over and sit here from time to time, but he no longer drinks. "

Le Kai said: "I don't know whether I should be happy or sorry!"

"Who says it isn't?"

Lucky stood up slowly and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Meadows nodded; "Turn left behind the counter. The renovation has just been completed and the location of the bathroom has changed!"

Lucky nodded and walked around the bar counter to the back.

As soon as Lucky entered the bathroom, there were fierce footsteps at the door.

Not long after, a reckless figure ran in.

"Damn it! It's been raining for three days now, and it has no intention of stopping!"

This is a young black man, wearing a plaid shirt, gray trousers, a pair of canvas shoes, and glasses.

Unlike those muscular black men, this young man was extremely thin.

"Conca, you are late again today." Meadows said dissatisfied

The black young man named Kongka said aggrievedly; "There is no way, your place is too far from the school, and I have to spend a lot of time on the road every time."

"This is not a reason." Meadows said: "You can definitely choose a place to work closer to the school."

"The salary here is better, and even though the boss is very vicious, he is very generous in terms of salary." Conca said without giving in at all.

Meadows shrugged: "Thanks for the compliment!"

Kongka took off his raincoat and hung it on a clothes rack nearby, and immediately started to put down the chairs and get ready for business.

While he was working, he said: "Boss, the sound in the bar has not been so good recently, and a lot of wine has not been sold out."

"Can you use the wine in the warehouse every day as a bar?" Meadows said angrily; "We are already very good."

"But the momentum is starting to weaken." Conca glanced at Meadows and said; "If business is sluggish, you can't withhold wages. We signed a contract, and I will sue you!"

Meadows waved his hands angrily and said, "Don't worry!"

Kongka was still reluctant and said, "Boss, aren't you and Kai good friends? You can definitely call him over, and it won't take long to record an interview."

"Many people now say that online travel guides are a trap. You know, many people come here just to meet Kai."

Meadows; "The main team still has games, so they don't have time to show up."

Hearing this, Kongka curled his lips, looked at the photo on the wall, and suddenly said, "Boss, this photo is not a composite, is it? You don't know Kai at all."

Meadows' eyes suddenly widened, and he was about to explode when Lucky just walked out of the bathroom.

"The paper in the bathroom is gone, you can add one when the time comes." Lucky looked at Meadows and rolled his eyes angrily, while Kongka looked at him stupidly, and he said a little confused; "Hello?"

Kongka's eyes kept turning between Lucky and Meadows.

The next second, he blinked rapidly at Meadows as if to say something else.

look! look! It's Kai! It’s really Kai! living! ! ! ——

Meadows said angrily: "Go! Didn't you hear my 'friend' say that the bathroom is out of paper? I don't have any discernment."

Kongka then said: "Okay! I understand, I'm going to add water to the bathroom, no! Add paper!"

After saying that, Kongka's eyes were almost fixed on Lucai, and he walked around in a circle and walked into the bathroom. Then he suddenly showed his head and said: "Kai! Can you give me an autograph later?"

Before Lucky could speak, Meadows shouted; "I said it! In my store, strictly harass customers!"

"He is a man, this is not harassment," Kongka said aggrievedly.

Meadows yelled: "Not even men! Get out!"

Kongka shrank his neck and returned to the bathroom.

Lucky looked at Meadows funny and said, "A very interesting young man."

Meadows sighed; "When I first came here, he was quite stable, and he was also a Ph.D. candidate. I thought it looked good and used it. Who knew that within two days, his true colors would be revealed? He is a talkative person who talks to me all day long. It’s like a parrot chirping in my ears, but I don’t know where there are so many things to say.”

"Oh! By the way, he is your fan. If you give him an autograph later, you will be the winner of the year!"

Lucky: ""
