16. Usain Bolt wears a pair of big shoes
"Lalala, I'm a little connoisseur of selling newspapers. ”
"Dude, what song are you singing? Patricia asked innocently.
"Well, an enduring pop song for children under the age of six in China. Emperor Wu replied casually.
Patricia nodded incomprehensibly.
After some observation, Emperor Wu found that the physical condition of the sonic cat tends to be perfect, and there is no defect from the outside, so the problem may be at its spiritual level, it is not confident enough in itself, is it necessary to instill this guy with chicken soup for the soul to succeed, and it can't understand it!
After some nonsense, Emperor Wu found that Patricia really surprised him, and he had a small dream: to become the world's top rider.
It's a small dream.
Patricia said helplessly: "The sonic cat is often inexplicably irritable, and I guarantee that its living environment is already the best in the world." ”
After speaking, he took out his mobile phone and played a video to show Emperor Wu, this is a collection of Sonic Cat's past games.
The sonic cat in the video is not bad.
Scrappy and motivated to fight hard before the start of the race, he was in the first group after the start of the race, and even took the lead, but in the second half of the race, his speed dropped significantly, and he was left behind by the other horses.
Emperor Wu began to analyze the information fed back by the arts, first of all, the sonic cat is not lacking in explosiveness, which can be seen from the fact that the opening can be kept in the first group. Secondly, it does not lack stamina, its limbs are well developed, its coordination is almost perfect, and it can fully maintain a full speed to finish the race, but why does it slow down every time it reaches the end?
With this question, Emperor Wu approached Patricia to hear his opinion.
Patricia was only a trainee at a horse farm and was not a Sonic Cat rider, but he showed the nose of a professional rider.
"The boss and Claude thought that the sonic cat lacked stamina and that its forelimbs were a little stubby, and they put a lot of effort into it, but they still didn't get anything. But I don't think the Sonic Cat has a problem with stamina, on the contrary, I think its stamina is excellent. ”
Claude is the rider of the Sonic Cat.
"And what do you think could be the reason?" Emperor Wu continued to ask.
Patricia spread her hands, "Maybe something is making it uncomfortable, or maybe there's something wrong with Claude's way of riding, or God doesn't want it to take first place." ”
There was something that made it uncomfortable, which reminded Emperor Wu.
Emperor Wu noticed that the sonic cat often had a subtle shrug movement, which ordinary people could not detect, and he noticed this through Shennong's cognitive technique.
It's a saddle problem! This thought flashed through Emperor Wu's mind.
Today, in order to collect information on the participating horses, Emperor Wu was exhausted from opening his eyes, and he took advantage of the fact that he was not tired and passed out to verify his idea for the last time.
He closed his eyes for three seconds and then focused on the back of the sonic cat, and gradually he could hear its thumping heartbeat, and Emperor Wu felt that the sonic cat was in some pain.
Shennong Zhishu told Emperor Wu that its back spine was wider than that of other horses, which meant that the sonic cat's carrying capacity was larger than that of other horses, which was both an advantage and a disadvantage.
The downside is that the saddle made for it will get stuck on the sides of its vertebrae, which makes it uncomfortable, and running at high speeds will increase the friction between the bones and the saddle frame, causing the sonic cat to slow down to adjust to the pain.
It seems that it is indeed a problem with the saddle! Emperor Wu stepped forward and pressed his hands the back of the sonic cat, and he could feel its wide vertebrae, and it was this raised bone that hindered its play!
"You're right, this saddle should be thrown away, and by tomorrow a large set of equestrian gear will be replaced to let the Sonic Cat break free, and I guarantee he will squeeze into the top few!"
Patricia jumped up excitedly, "Really, then I'll call the boss now!"
Mr. Kane hesitated a little when he heard Emperor Wu's suggestion, but he did it anyway.
The biggest critic of this was the rider Claude, because changing to a large saddle meant that he was in danger of being jolted off during the ride, which is very likely to happen at high speeds, as if Bolt wore a pair of oversized shoes to the trapeze fight.
Mr. Kane thought about it and decided to take Emperor Wu's suggestion, perhaps the young man was right.
Claude was a very professional rider, and although he was very opposed to changing the saddle model, he had to try to accept the change, and he rushed to the racecourse before dark to get used to the new saddle with the Sonic Cat.
The next thing was left to Kane and Claude to deal with, Emperor Wu's hungry chest was attached to his belly, Patricia asked Emperor Wu to eat steak, and Emperor Wu almost drooled when he heard the word steak.
There are many steakhouses in Melbourne, and they are all boutiques.
Emperor Wu was almost helped into the steakhouse, and Patricia was teary-eyed, feeling that he had to eat himself poor.
"Here's a bottle of Budweiser!"
This is the official beer of Emperor Wu.
The steakhouse was very efficient, and it didn't take long for two smoky steaks and a large table of side dishes to be served.
"Xiaopa, you're welcome!"
Emperor Wu didn't care about the heat, and devoured it, I have to say that the steak here tastes so good, it's better than what you can eat in China!
The mood of eating is contagious, and Patricia also began to chew on the steak, and the two of them ate very deliciously!
After a binge meal and a stomach, Emperor Wu returned to his unhurried demeanor.
"Pa, thank you for your steak hospitality, and I have a ranch in NSW, and I'm going to breed my own racehorses, and I'm going to invite you to be a rider in the future, what do you think?"
Bang!
Patricia's fork fell to the ground.
Emperor Wu frowned, "What the hell, I thought it was Liu Xuande who was scared off his chopsticks by the thunder." ”
"What did you just say!" Patricia was emotional.
Liu Xuande was scared off his chopsticks by the thunder. ”
"The previous sentence!"
"Please come to my ranch as a rider, although you are only a field worker now, no one wants to be an assistant for the rest of their lives, right? ”
Emperor Wu was serious, he felt that this kid was a malleable talent, and he had a stronger spirit of perseverance and desire to win than ordinary people.
Patricia raised her glass and dried, "I'm going to tell my father what you said, he has always opposed me entering this industry!
Emperor Wu regretted a little, why couldn't this kid hold his breath, he couldn't keep a low profile, so that the handsome guys and beautiful women who were dining around him were looking here, and the handsome guys and girls only heard the sentence "Father opposed", and their eyes were weird.
Emperor Wu was going to cool him down, "Hey, Patricia, I know you're a very motivated person, which is rare, but we have to face the fact that my ranch doesn't have shit except for a cat right now. ”
Emperor Wu took out his mobile phone to show him a photo of the pasture, and the empty meadow was full of wood.
After reading it, Pa was still emotional, "I believe that with your ability, you will build this place into one of the best pastures in Australia, you have a unique intuition about horse racing, this is God gave you!"
This sycophant sentence is useful, and Emperor Wu has already thought about the next way.
Although Patricia immediately expressed his willingness to go to New South Wales with Emperor Wu to build a ranch, Emperor Wu thought that this was not a good policy, and he suggested that Xiao Pa should first learn from the experience of being a good horse farm assistant in Melbourne, and then go back to work after the South Australian Ranch began to engage in horse racing.
Patricia said excitedly: "You must make a lot of money by opening a ranch, I can imagine your name appearing in the Australian Guardian." ”
"Haha, it sounds exciting, but it's too early to say this, we're just getting started, cheers!"
Although Emperor Wu agrees with Patricia's character, this does not mean that Emperor Wu will tell him everything.
Emperor Wu did not tell him that the ultimate purpose of his trip was to gamble on horses to earn plastic money, and Patricia did not need to know, he only needed to know that Emperor Wu wanted him to work on the ranch.
It's not that you don't trust Patricia, it's just that the less people know about these things, the better.
"Do you know Lady Margaery, I've heard what happened to her, Sheridan is a total asshole!" Pa shook his fist as he said this, and there was a strange look around him, and all they heard was who was a bastard.
The two chatted enthusiastically, and I don't know how the topic turned to her.
"It's just a coincidence. Emperor Wu said.
Patricia, acting as a messenger of justice, told several perverted deeds of Sheridan Ivanov, such as not going home on their wedding night, but going to a strip club to celebrate with thirty strippers.
"You know what those striptease sluts say about Margaery, she's a money-hungry bitch!"
Emperor Wu nodded, "It seems that you have some interest in Margaery." ”
Overwhelmed, but also bold to say, "In the racering world, Ms. Margaery is the dream girl of many riders, especially young people like me. ”
After chatting with Ms. Margaery, the two talked about their respective college lives.
In the evening, Emperor Wu went to the café downstairs to ask for a cup of coffee before going back to the hotel to sleep, and quietly read the horse information recorded during the day.
Emperor Wu couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, tomorrow will kick off the curtain of the Melbourne Cup Horse Racing Carnival, and the opportunity to make a fortune has finally come!
