Chapter 2 The East Wind Rises!

The next day, Jia Lei and his family took a car sent by Habayi's family to Andijan City, the transportation hub of Uzbekistan.

"At this time, you have collected my business card and the business card of the travel agency, and Baya can contact me at any time if you want to immigrate. Lilia, go back and tell your father that I can always hire him to help me raise horses in country Y if he wishes. Jia Lei touched the little girl's head and said.

"My dad won't help you, he's in charge of hundreds of horses now, but he's angry. Lilia said.

"Lilia, Jia Lei is helping you, thank him!" Baya hurriedly said, but unfortunately Lilia was too young to understand what Jia Lei meant.

"It's not a big deal, it's just a work visa, and I'm short of a professional horse breeder anyway. Lilia's father isn't at home, so you can let him know when he returns. I'll leave first if I have something to do!" Jia Lei waved his hand to a few people after speaking, sat in the car and left.

Andijan City

Jia Lei came to the horse farm of Habayi's family, and at the gate he crossed to Peli, a friend of Utars.

"Your uncle asked me to help you. Peli said with a smile.

"I'm really bothering you this time, let's go inside. Jia Lei said, so the two of them came to the stable together.

"Young Master Jia, what do you think of the two horses I prepared for you?" Master Habayi asked the workers to bring out two horses, one black and one red.

"This horse is very spiritual!" Jia Lei cautiously praised, saying too much and making mistakes, Jia Lei didn't want the other party to know that he didn't know anything about horses.

"May I ask where the pedigree of these two horses proves, and are they both purebred blood-blooded horses?" Peli asked suddenly.

"Proof of pedigree? Of course, I'm going to have people get their birth books, pedigrees, and nameplates. "Master Habayi said that this is the step you have to take in the transaction, and he has already prepared the things.

"Yes, the bloodline is pure, and the lineage of the paternal and maternal lines is very clear. Peli said as she flipped through the proofs.

"This genealogy has been flipped up, there are about 30 generations, right?" Jia Lei asked in shock as he looked at the pedigree certificate.

"Of course, our family's horse farm has been around for hundreds of years. Habayi said proudly.

"Since the pedigree is fine, let's take a look at the horses!" said Peli, putting on a white glove.

"Oh...... Absolutely. Master Habayi said a little weakly, he didn't expect Jia Lei to find such a professional person.

"Fur and limbs are fine, horseshoe?" Peli frowned at this.

Then he broke the horse's mouth with his own hands and looked carefully at the teeth of the two horses.

"This horse is a little old, huh?" said Peli, who let go of his hand and patted the black horse with a frown.

"What does this mean?" asked Jia Lei in a low voice.

"The best age for speed racing is 3-5 years old, the best age for endurance racing is 9-11 years old, and the best age for show jumping is 8-15 years old. Peli said.

"Master Habayi, can you give me an explanation?" Jia Lei asked with a dark face.

"The stamina of these horses is very good, and if they have the opportunity to participate in the competition, they will definitely win the championship!" said Lord Habayi cheekily.

No matter what he competes in, this horse can only compete for five years at most, and it has a shorter lifespan than other horses. And as we all know, speed racing is what counts the most!" Peli said as she took off her gloves.

"But my horses are cheap? It's only $500,000, half the price of those famous families. Lord Habayi argued.

"I said I wasn't bad for money, I just wanted the best horses!" Jia Lei said angrily.

"Okay, I'll change it for you right away!" said Master Habayi quickly.

"Can we go into the stable and pick up the horses ourselves?" Peli asked suddenly.

"This ......," Lord Habayi hesitated.

He was afraid that this peli who suddenly appeared was an undercover agent sent by a competitor.

"If you don't let us pick and choose, I guarantee that your shoddy things will spread in high society at once. Jia Lei said coldly.

"Okay, then I'll let you go to the stable and pick it yourself. "Lord Habayi's only goodwill of his own had to agree.

"Yes, I hope there will be a mare this time......" Peli said, glancing back at the horse behind her.

"Young Master Jia only said that he wanted two horses, but he didn't say that he wanted a mare?" Master Habayi continued to argue.

Fertile mares are the basis for the survival of a horse farm, and they will not sell them easily.

"I said at the time that I wanted a pair! Two stallions are a pair of horses, do you want them to stir up the foundation?" Jia Lei asked angrily.

"This mare is very expensive, and we have very few of them...... "Master Habayi hastened to say.

"Then do you want to sell it?" asked Jia Lei.

"I don't really want to sell the mare!" said Master Habayi.

If it weren't for his son saying yesterday that Jia Lei was a wronged boss who didn't understand, he wouldn't have agreed to sell the horse so easily, he originally wanted to catch a fat sheep, but he didn't expect to catch a wolf with sheepskin.

"It's just that I don't want to sell it, it's not that I don't want to sell it, right?" I think if the price is right, it should be negotiable, right?" Jia Lei said coldly.

"Well, let's talk about this later......" Master Habayi didn't say anything, after all, he was a successful businessman.

****

The process of selecting the horse went smoothly, and Peli was experienced, and soon picked two foals about two years old for Jia Lei.

"These two are the finest foals, and if you want to buy them, they will not cost you a lot!" said Lord Habayi.

"Make an offer!" Mr. Jia said.

"The stallion is a million dollars, and the mare is four million dollars. Lord Habayi said.

That's $5 million for two horses!

You know, this is the 90s, and the price is before inflation!

After Jia Lei heard the price, he was very distressed!

"Ahem, why are mares so much more expensive than stallions? Are all your mares here so expensive?" Jia Lei asked, in fact, his focus was on the latter sentence.

"This price is already the market price! With Mr. Peli here, I don't dare to lie to anyone. Lord Habayi said.

"Is there really no cheaper mare?" asked Jia Lei again.

"The cheapest ones are the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled!" said Master Habayi jokingly.

"Oh, can you show me?" Jia Lei asked immediately.

"Most of Jia Lei's horses are useless, and even if they give birth to foals, it will be difficult to achieve good rankings in international competitions!" Peli persuaded Jia Lei, he was afraid that Jia Lei would not know the consequences of the incident.

"It doesn't matter! You don't know that there are a lot of local tyrants in our country, and they only pay attention to their identity and bloodline when they buy horses like buying famous brands! Few will let horses participate in competitions, at most they run laps in the racecourse. As long as it is a pure-blooded sweat and blood BMW, it will not be sold!" Jia Lei said with certainty that there was a equestrian fever in China later.

"That's right, I often sell some blood-like horses to those local tyrants who don't know the goods. Lord Habayi agreed.

"Then do you have any suitable recommendations?" Jia Lei asked while looking at the old and weak mare, and he didn't want the sick horse to infect him.

As long as it is a purebred sweaty BMW, even if I am old, I will keep it for my own breeding. Lord Habayi said.

"Then forget it, I want the two horses I chose. Mr. Jia said, and then he signed a check from Citibank.

"Okay!" said Master Habayi, taking the check, and as long as the ticket was verified, the transaction would be over.

During the long verification process of the check, Young Master Habayi, who had not spoken, finally spoke.

"We have a mare in our horse farm who has just fallen and had a broken leg! Do you want it?" asked Young Master Habayi, pointing to a horse lying on the ground in a corner.

"A horse with a broken leg can't even walk, and it can't be wanted! And it's a difficult birth, and it doesn't even have to live for a few days. Peli looked at it and immediately shook her head.

"The pony next to it is so thin, it was born when it was difficult to give birth, right?" asked Jia Lei.

"Yes, don't you really think about it? This mare is Xiaohong's mother, who is only 15 years old this year. If you buy it back, you can continue to give birth to ponies!" said Master Habayi.

"But it can't even stand up now, right?" asked Jia Lei, because the side under the horse was particularly dirty.

"Yes, so you can take this horse for a tenth of the price!" said Master Habayi.

"$400,000 for a horse that will die at any time?

"This money is just a year's pocket money for you, you might as well gamble with it! If you win, you can multiply it tenfold." Young Master Habayi said.

"Then why don't you gamble yourself?" asked Jia Lei.

"This horse is so badly injured that it will never come back unless there is a professional veterinarian to take care of it 24 hours a day! Besides, there are so many horses in our horse farm, veterinarians can't watch them 24 hours a day. Young Master Habayi said truthfully.

"So you just think you can make a fortune, right?" Jia Lei asked.

"Yes!" admitted Master Habayi.

"Then do you bet or not?" asked Young Master Habayi.

"500,000! Sell me the foals around him. Jia Lei said.

"This ...... The pony had lost a bit of weight, but it was fine. Young Master Habayi said hesitantly.

"Then do you sell it or not?" Jia Lei asked back.

"We're selling!" said Master Habayi, who had just verified the authenticity of the check and knew that Jia Lei had money.

"Dad, when that horse grows up, even if it can't be a racehorse, it can be a stallion?" said Master Habayi.

"It's too weak to be a stallion! Lord Habayi said.

The main reason is that these two horses are not in good health and may die at any time, and the mortality rate of ponies who are separated from their mothers will be higher.

If he can sell it for $500,000, he can be considered profitable!

"Then it's a deal!" Jia Lei said.

Due to the need to prepare a special plane to transport horses, Jia Lei stayed in the local area for two more days.

7 December 1991

Jia Lei returned to Moscow, while several batches of horses flew to London.

"Is it still so chaotic outside?" Jia Lei asked while sitting in the car.

The demonstrations and confrontations between supporters of the Soviet Union and Russia intensified everywhere on the roadside, even more so than when Jia Lei left.

"Yes, the conflict has intensified in the last month. Utars said.

Once the matter gets out of hand, it will be resolved once and for all. Jia Lei said.

After all, now that the whole country is in turmoil, the Chechens have begun to use force to seek independence, and your uncle and uncle are preparing to follow suit. Utars said.

"I think they'd better not solve the problem. The means are still a little more civilized, the higher you jump, the heavier you fall, I think my uncle can follow the example of the three Baltic countries to hold a referendum. Jia Lei said.

"Why do you want to do that?" asked Utars.

If they follow the international process and the people of country E still do not agree to the independence of Tatarstan, then the United Nations and the truth will be on their side. Jia Lei said.

"That's a great idea! I'll remind them. Utars said.

On the morning of December 7, the E-Rus delegation and the Ukrainian delegation headed by Yeltsin came to Belarus one after another.

"Why didn't the Kazakhs come?" someone asked quietly.

"We've called him, but he doesn't know why he's refusing to come to the meeting. Someone whispered again.

"If he doesn't come, forget it, let's discuss it ourselves. A group of people said.

People from Ukraine, Russia and Belarus secretly got together to discuss the collapse of the Soviet Union, and everyone was absentmindedly discussing the terms all morning.

During the meeting, all participants feared that Gorbacho would use force to prevent the collapse of the Soviet Union. History proves that such fears are unnecessary.

He knew that Yeltsin was coming out, and at that time someone proposed to him to arrest all the participants immediately, but Gorbacho simply smiled bitterly and refused.

After the events of August 19, the Soviet army was no longer under his control.

No one stopped me until noon, and the people from the three countries who participated in the meeting were all relieved.

After lunch, everyone began to formally discuss the agreement, and after a long discussion, everyone reached a consensus, and the work of drafting the agreement continued for more than seven hours, and it was not finished until 5 a.m. the next day.

"Jia Lei, why haven't you slept tonight?" Kerr asked.

"I can't sleep!" Jia Lei said, holding up his wine glass.

Tonight is another sleepless night, Jia Lei clearly knows that there are many people who have stayed up all night like him that night, and everyone is waiting for the last moment tomorrow......

****

On December 8, 1991, President Yeltsin of the former Soviet Union, President of Ukraine, and the top leaders of Belarus signed an "Agreement on the Establishment of an Independent Consortium" at the government villa "Veskuli" in the depths of the Belovyzh National Park in Belarus.

This is the well-known "CIS Statement", the signing of which marked the "cessation of the existence of the USSR as a subject of international law and geopolitical reality"!

At 4 p.m. on the 8th, many people held a rally on Moscow's Manezh Square to protest against the invalidity of the agreement.

"But they don't know that the people who should care about this agreement the most at this time are still only thinking about their pensions!" Jia Lei said as he looked at the crowd outside the window.

"Jia Lei, what were you talking about just now?" Mo Bei asked puzzledly, Jia Lei suddenly came up with such a sentence out of nowhere, and it was very surprising that she was raised.

"It's nothing! I'm just strange, people from Kazakhstan didn't participate in such a big event?" Jia Lei said with a smile.

"Yes, this Kazakhstan is strange enough, everyone withdrew from the Soviet Union, only they have not yet proposed independence. But now that the Soviet Union is gone, what are they going to do?" asked Ronan.

"Anyway, it has nothing to do with us!" Mo Bei said unconcernedly.

"The wind is blowing!. Jia Lei looked at the fallen leaves blown by the wind outside the window and said.

"It's getting colder and colder, and the winds from the Siberian cold snap are getting stronger. Utars said.

"Although the wind and rain are hateful, they are not useless, there will always be people who will fly up by this east wind!" Jia Lei said, and the fallen leaves in the distance flew up to the sky with the wind.

Dapeng rises with the wind one day and soars to 90,000 miles!
