261. Old John, who only walked in a straight line
The sonic cat, who had been away from the battle for a long time, was not afraid of the formation, and it rushed out first, leaving the other horses far behind.
There was a round of applause at the scene, and some audience members recognized this dark horse that was proud of Melbourne last November, and they cheered excitedly.
"Look! the horse with the plum blossom J is the sonic cat! I recognize the way it runs!" shouted a young man with a London accent and a big round hat from the audience.
The bewildered tourists had no idea what a sonic cat was, let alone what the Melbourne Cup meant to this group of true horse fans.
Patricia on horseback was in high spirits and enjoying the cheers of the few spectators, and he only needed to hold the reins firmly to claim victory.
"Look at the way it runs, it's really a rare good horse, what are you going to do next?" Berkeley clasped his hands to his chest, staring intently at the big screen in the box.
"I'm going to pour out for a steak and then go home for a nap, I'm so tired today. Emperor Wu said relaxedly.
Berkeley turned his head and shrugged, "You know what I'm talking about. ”
Emperor Wu smiled, handed him a small can of beer, and said, "Nurture the next generation." ”
Lisa only listened halfway, leaned over and asked suspiciously, "You and Kaibi plan to have a child now?"
Emperor Wu shook his head helplessly, "I'm talking about the sonic cat, such a good horse, it should be passed on to the wild genes in its body." ”
Berkeley thinks it's a good idea, so the choice of mare is important. As a rule, a mare with a noble pedigree should be chosen to give birth.
Emperor Wu has no elaborate plans for this, the Sonic Cat is not a thoroughbred horse and does not have a noble bloodline, so there will be a little problem in terms of breeding, and its genes may be unstable.
At the end of the race, the only suspense was which horse would finish second. Patricia, dressed in a black rider's suit, circled the course to greet the few spectators.
One pass ten, ten pass hundred, everyone at the scene understood that they were fortunate to witness the comeback of the Sonic Cat.
Although the victory in this race had little to do with Patricia, even a rookie would win on horseback, Uncle Berkeley was impressed by the young man, and he admired Patricia's serious approach to the race, and he was not complacent that his famous horse was a world-famous horse.
"Well done, young man, you are welcome to play at my horse farm often, I have dozens of horses there and need your help too. Berkeley said to Pa, who had entered the box.
After winning his first race, Patricia realized the glory of being a professional rider and he was determined to continue on this path.
In the evening, everyone had a celebration banquet outside. Now that the journey has begun, the next Sonic Cat and Pa will face one test after another.
Emperor Wu planned to assign them a professional team to ensure the health of the horses and riders.
Pa is a new rider and has no way to participate in the big races yet, so he can only accumulate points through the third level to get the capital to participate in the higher level races.
After the race, Uncle Berkeley said he knew a friend who lived in Newcastle and kept a dozen valuable thoroughbreds, but never raced.
Emperor Wu asked the friend suspiciously why he didn't participate in the competition.
Berkeley replied that there were such strange people in the land.
He gave Emperor Wu a business card, and when the time came, it would be okay to say that he was his friend, because the guy didn't want to deal with people, and only liked to stay in the horse farm and keep his horses company.
Emperor Wu looked at the business card, and it seemed that this man named John should be a "horse idiot". There are people in any industry who are extremely obsessed, and masters are often born here.
Emperor Wu decided to meet him tomorrow, and he urgently needed a mare to breed offspring for Sonic cats to compete in some competitions under the age of three.
Newcastle is a city name with a high rate of renaming, not only in Australia, but also in the United States, South Africa, Canada, and the most famous is Newcastle on the River Tyne in England.
Newcastle in Australia is the sixth largest city in the country and the second largest city in New South Wales, and the entire city is built around a sprawling harbour.
Just 160 kilometres from Siney, about a two-hour drive, the century-old wine-producing mecca of Hunter Valley is located to the west.
"But I'll tell you, Old John wasn't very good-tempered, and as you can tell from his nickname, we called him Old John, who only walked in a straight line. Berkeley said.
Old John, who only walks in a straight line? What kind of stalk is this, Emperor Wu doesn't understand, could it be that he is also a Basque, or this ancient land has magic, and men will become stubborn when they get older.
"Haha, because John has always walked in a straight line, and he doesn't like to beat around the bush, even if it's a thorn in front of him. ”
Well, going to him is tantamount to asking for himself, but for the sake of the sonic cat's happiness and his own money, he has to go again.
He decided to drive over by himself the next day, in the afternoon, Emperor Wu wanted to call Old John to make an appointment, but no one answered, Emperor Wu made four calls in a row, the first two did not answer, and the last two hung up directly.
Emperor Wu's temper has come up, what kind of person is this! Don't go!
The angry Emperor Wu tore the business card directly.
Thirty seconds later, Emperor Wu was intimidated, picked up the business card from the ground and pieced together the number, making a joke, after all, it is important to make money......
Emperor Wu called Uncle Berkeley and asked why. Berkeley said he only answered calls from acquaintances, and never hung up on unfamiliar numbers.
Damn, this will be killed in China......
"Are you sure you're going to him? His temper isn't something everybody can bear. Berkeley said on the phone.
The more this is the case, the more Emperor Wu thinks that his horse will be a good horse, which is very strange and has no reason to believe.
When she was having dinner with the little lady in the evening, Kaibi heard that Emperor Wu was going to Newcastle, and she wanted to go too.
Emperor Wu waved his hand, this time he was going to find a thorny old man, not to be a guest to enjoy the best treatment.
Kaibi had to regret pouting her little mouth to drink juice, and in order to apologize, Emperor Wu gave her a macho experience coupon for tonight.
Over this time, Kaibi's skin has been getting better and better, more effective than applying various brand-name cosmetics, and her eyes have become clearer.
In the past few days, Kaibi has a difficult task, because Emperor Wu handed over the task of renovating the beef shop to her, and she originally planned to find a design company, but then she thought that her daughter-in-law was a famous designer!
Emperor Wu never fought unprepared battles, and he tried to find information about John's Farm on his computer, but found nothing, not even any markers on Google Maps.
This weird old man who only walks in a straight line has no trace of the Internet, he does not use social networks, and lives a pure natural life.
Take Frank and Greg, two old rivals, for example, they play very slippery on the Internet, often posting photos and testimonials on social networking sites, and they all know all kinds of hot events in society.
It's very difficult for modern society to completely detach itself from the effects of the Internet of Things, and even if you want to avoid it, the network will invisibly infiltrate your life.
You have to be ruthless to yourself to be like this, and after never meeting him, Emperor Wu began to admire this old guy.
