Chapter 208: Heavy Horse
Finding a BMW is something Zhang Dawei has wanted to do for a long time. Since moving to the ranch, such an idea has always been in Zhang Dawei's heart, and he really wants to have a BMW with human nature.
You don't need it to be a Maxima, you don't need it to be a miracle horse, you just need to understand human nature, that's enough.
In fact, this is a more difficult thing to do, if you just want the Divine Horse, it is actually a very simple thing. Many horses have a good look, as long as they are willing to spend money, such things are not difficult to do.
In the same way, it is not difficult to find a Maxima who is good at galloping. If it's a short track sprint racehorse, it's actually a big deal in the United States. Among the horses that are good at long-distance running, they are the best in terms of strength, speed and endurance.
What is really difficult to find is the BMW of human nature, which is why Zhang Dawei has been looking for a long time and has not found a satisfactory horse. This is also the reason why Zhang Dawei is now continuing to seek BMW, and this is also the reason why Xiaobai wants to lose his temper again.
The baby was very happy, although he didn't go to the playground to play games, but the baby didn't care. The little guy knew that Xiaobai was angry, so he hugged Xiaobai's neck, talked to Xiaobai affectionately, and coaxed the angry Xiaobai.
Of course, the baby is also upset for Xiaobai, and is constantly denouncing her father. Obviously, the baby also saw the reason why Xiaobai was angry, and she saw that this was her father lying to Xiaobai again. So Xiaobai is angry, of course the baby also needs to be angry with Xiaobai, she and Xiaobai have always advanced and retreated together.
And the baby also knows Xiaobai's personality very well, and he must be angry at this time. Only by showing that he is angry with his father, Xiaobai will be well-behaved. These are naturally very well understood by the baby, which she learned when she and Xiaobai grew up together.
Xiaobai did find a good partner and 'spoke' bad things about Zhang Dawei with the baby. The two little guys muttered together, glared at Zhang Dawei from time to time, and shouted from time to time, expressing their dissatisfaction and expressing their current emotions.
Thick-skinned is naturally a label of Zhang Dawei, he was calm, and Melissa walked into the racecourse hand in hand without hurrying.
This time I came to Spokane in Huasheng Ton State, the second largest city and the second largest tourist center in Huasheng Ton State. Zhang Dawei's family is no stranger to this place, because every time they go to California, they have to pass through here.
"My baby's hobbies are growing, and now she enjoys not only fishing, but also horseback riding. Zhang Dawei looked at the baby, his eyes full of doting, "And you also know her character, she doesn't like me to ride a horse with her in her arms now." ”
Melissa didn't know whether to be proud or worried, and her tone was complicated, "Our child is full of adventure, she is a brave girl. But David, she's too young now. ”
It's because it's too small, so Zhang Dawei and Melissa are worried.
Although the baby is sensible and obedient, he is only more than two years old after all. Hold the little girl and go horseback riding, of course it's no problem. But the baby doesn't want that now, and she always has to sit in the saddle by herself. Even several times I had to pull the reins by myself, and I was very unhappy that my parents were holding the bridles, and I was completely expecting to ride a horse alone.
This is definitely not possible, Zhang Dawei and Melissa can carry the baby to ride a horse, or let her sit in the saddle by herself. But really, there is really no way for the little girl to go horseback riding now, she is too young to have the strength to deal with any more complicated situations at all. Horseback riding is fun, but it also requires enough professionalism, and there are risks here.
I hope I can find a satisfactory horse this time, although Zhang Dawei also knows that even finding a smart horse cannot completely solve some problems. But at least you can get some assurances, at least you can worry less about some things.
The daughter has grown up a lot, and the daughter has slowly had her ideas, such a little guy who is becoming more and more unconscious really needs to be taken care of.
Xiaobai continued to look at the horses here sullenly, and did not like these horses very much. Because it doesn't want to look at these stupid guys anymore, because they still look so stupid, they don't have any merit at all.
Zhang Dawei was also puzzled, and asked the manager of the racecourse, "Sir, you told me that there are new batches of horses, is that all? No kidding, right, I seem to have seen them." ”
Zhang Dawei is a 'regular visitor', but he is more of a visitor than a horse. But since there is an intention, it is a potential customer. If you have a good horse, then of course you have to recommend it well, maybe you can make this business.
The manager of the horse farm hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhang, I know that you are a rancher, so I recommend these excellent flower horses to you!"
"I already have a good riding horse and my cowboy is happy with his mount. Zhang Dawei felt that he had been pitted, and said angrily, "Sir, if it's just these horses, I don't think I need to continue watching." ”
The horse farm manager really wants to make Zhang Dawei a pit, and these basically unpopular flower horses should be sold to these ranchers. Because it is not as popular as Arabian horses and thoroughbreds, the price is naturally not high. And those ranchers will like it, because the price of flower horses is relatively cheap, because these flower horses are good service horses.
Seeing that the customer was leaving, the horse farm manager continued to recommend, "Mr. Zhang, since you already have a riding horse, then I recommend a horse to you." I know that there is a lot of equipment on the ranch now, but sir, you need to be more responsible for your ranch. I recommend that you choose a few horses, which will not trample on the grass and can be safely passed in difficult terrain. ”
Zhang Dawei didn't think it was necessary to pull the horse, and he didn't need to pull the horse to plow the land and drag heavy objects. At the end of the day, his ranch has enough equipment and the terrain isn't that complicated. This is not to stay in the forest farm, and it does not mean that the timber needs to be transported down from the mountain trail, at least Zhang Dawei has no such plans here.
"Sir, we have some excellent horses here! they are tall and muscular, and they have terrifying strength. The manager of the horse farm is recommending it hard, in fact, Zhang Dawei is not a good customer, because those riding horses don't look down on it at all, "Sir, I believe you will definitely be attracted to them, they have the blood of the Shire horse, the most powerful and largest horse in the world!"
Wang Po sells melons and boasts, such a routine is so familiar that Zhang Dawei can't even be interested.
But Melissa was a little interested, because the Shire horse was not a common Arabian horse, a quartter horse, it was rare.
"Sharma, I know them, they are supposed to be the breed of horses of England, they were once the most common sight in English history, and for centuries past the Sharma had been the most effective assistant of the English, both in times of peace and war. Melissa was indeed very interested, so she asked curiously, "Isn't it said that there are not many Sharmas in England now, why are there here?"
The farm manager explained, "Their pedigree is not pure, they are crossed with some horses. This is normal because of the need to breed new horse breeds, and because purebred Shire horses are so few solid in the United States. ”
The number of shire horses is small, not only because this is the United States, but also because shire horses can only be used as pull-backs because they are too heavy and have a lot of strength, so they can only walk slowly to pull goods. Because the Sharma were slow, they could not march or sprint at all, and they could only be used as horses.
Of course, Zhang Dawei also knows this, he is also a rancher, and he also knows some horses.
Those war horses that fought in ancient times basically needed speed and endurance. Indeed, there are some exaggerated heavy cavalry, the weight of the armor of men and horses is exaggerated, and such heavy cavalry was actually more popular in the European Middle Ages. And in the era of the development of those heavy cavalry, if a knight fell off his horse, he would not be able to stand up on his own strength!
And the horses that these cavalry need naturally need to have great strength.
France's Pershma and Germany's Holstein horse are among the best. And these horses are heavy horses, and the whole is usually tall and weighty. And their height is generally between 1.65 meters and 1.75 meters.
Arabian horses, quart or thoroughbreds, which are only medium-sized horses, are 1.5 to 1.6 meters tall. At one time, the Mongol cavalry swept across Europe and Asia, and their mounts, the Mongol horses, were small, even inferior to the Arabian horses.
"A real Sharma is often more than two meters tall at the shoulders, and two meters and five meters long from the top of the head to the hooves! Ordinary horses basically weigh about half a ton, but Sharma can reach more than one ton, and the highest record is 1.8 tons!" ”
"Sounds interesting, take us to see them. Melissa was really intrigued and thought it was new and interesting, "I've never seen big horses with exaggerated heads, and I thought it would be interesting to see them." ”
Since Melissa said so, Zhang Dawei naturally would not object. And it should be interesting to think about, because Arabian horses, Quarter horses and even thoroughbreds are nothing new, and they have seen a lot. And a heavy horse with Sharma blood, I really haven't seen it yet.
Therefore, it should be interesting to simply take a long look at the horses that are said to be the most powerful.
The baby led Xiaobai to trot in front, but slowly couldn't keep up with Xiaobai's speed. Even if the baby keeps shouting, Xiaobai turns a deaf ear...... The aggrieved baby was angry, she was held in Zhang Dawei's arms, because Xiaobai ran away, and the baby couldn't keep up with Xiaobai at all!
