Chapter 339 Journey to New York

"Hey, buddy, are you stupid?" Xiao Peng smirked in front of the cameraman with an enlarged check for two million dollars, and Yang Meng complained on the side.

There is no doubt that the championship of the Bemont Stakes was also won by Xiao Peng, and the event record was improved by two seconds. For Xiao Peng, it was really too easy to win the championship in this way.

Bob frowned and said, "Yang, you know the! This is the Triple Crown! It's the highest honor in the Stars and Stripes Nation horse racing circle." He was also holding an enlarged fake check with $1 million written on it, which was a record-breaking prize money.

Yang Meng waved at the camera on the side, and whispered: "You are no better, you are as stupid as Xiao Peng! With a prize of three million US dollars, you don't know what your surname is, and you are also picking the door in this event, can't you increase the prize money a little?"

"Is that still low?" Bob's eyes widened, "In just one month, the total prize money of the 'Titan' has exceeded nine million dollars! Counting the money you make from buying horses at the Kentucky Championship, how can you not play baseball?

In the Stars and Stripes, the highest-paid athletes are a handful of top players in the NBA, but baseball players also earn horrific incomes. Take the New York Yankees as an example, the starting players all have an annual salary of more than 20 million! What kind of concept is this? It's equivalent to nine Chris Paul playing on the same team! For example, the Detroit Tigers signed a direct contract with Miguel Cabrera for 12 years, for a total of 352 million. When he signed this contract, Cabrera was 31 years old, which is a standard iron rice bowl!

The Stars and Stripes Major League Baseball is indeed a super paradise for making sky-high contracts, in terms of international influence, it is not as good as the NBA, in terms of domestic status, it is not as good as the NFL, but it is indeed a paradise for professional players, there is no salary cap in the professional baseball league, only the luxury tax, which means that as long as the owner has money, you can spend unlimited money, and there is no transfer fee limit here. There is no legal limit when signing a contract, like football, and when it comes to transfers, like in the NBA, players get their own nets. So as long as the level is high enough, the player's sky-high contract is at your fingertips.

Xiao Peng shrugged: "I'm not going to sign a contract with them and do the same thing all year round? That's boring! Besides, do I care about the money? You said that I have sold the breeding rights of the 'Titan' now, how much can I sell it? Do I still care about that contract?"

Yang Meng stretched out his head and looked left and right: "Dude, why didn't you see Alice Goelin? "Now that the game is over, Rich is standing there making his closing remarks.

Xiao Peng looked at Richie, who was speaking on the podium, and pouted: "Alice, can you see her?" ”

Yang Meng was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Bob smiled: "You didn't see today's odds, the odds of 'Titan' losing the lead position are only 2.4, I noticed it, at the last moment, someone bet five million to buy 'Titan' and lose, five million dollars were wasted, no one can stand it." What does it mean to be the favourites to win the tournament like this, and to make a last-minute bet?"

Yang Meng suddenly realized: "That means that they believe that they have done something to the 'Titan' and have succeeded." ”

Xiao Peng nodded: "Do you understand now why I let the 'Titan' go slowly during the exhibition circle?"

Bob said: "If you can come up with five million dollars to buy a horse, that's not a good stubble." Do you think Alice can take out so much money? There must be someone behind her! Causing people to lose so much money, do you think the people behind her can let Alice go? You didn't pay attention today, when the last five million money money bet, Rich directly took off the ring on his hand. Five million dollars! Alice's life is not enough to pay. ”

Xiao Peng said: "That's right, Richie is also a ruthless guy." Alright, Mengzi, you can take care of the rest of the matter. After speaking, he stuffed the fake check into Yang Meng's hand: "Take it, it's your turn." ”

Yang Meng said speechlessly: "You just love to be lazy! Lao Pan! Come here! I'll leave the rest to you!"

Pan Peiyu looked helpless, he was used to it. Every time there is a press conference or something, Xiao Peng and the others are reluctant to attend, only he and Bob are left to deal with the media------ who makes him the operation manager of the horse farm? He is also depressed, he can solve the problem by dealing with the media and the like; there are many horse owners who want to put their horses in the Huaxia Horse Farm, and he can solve this problem; but there are some things that he really can't solve! What do you say those breeding companies are looking for themselves? Are you annoying!

Bob and Pan Peiyu were surrounded by reporters, but Xiao Peng and the two were lying in the stable basking in the sun.

"Mengzi, what do you say we are going to play next?" Xiao Peng asked.

Yang Meng shrugged: "How do I know? I called Di Wei, he will have to wait for a few days for the wedding over there, what are we going to do during this time? You can't go back to help him prepare for the wedding, right? I'll forget if you're tired!"

Xiao Peng lit a cigarette with a bitter face: "Who said it wasn't!

Yang Meng nodded sympathetically: "That's right! You said that we stand next to him, just by virtue of our appearance, who still looks at him?"

Xiao Peng looked at Yang Meng helplessly: "Dude, you think too much! Who gave you the courage to make you so full of illusions? Do you want to correctly understand your own appearance?"

Yang Meng just wanted to refute, the mobile phone rang, Yang Meng picked up the mobile phone and looked at it, and handed it directly to Xiao Peng: "It's Pagio, can you turn on your mobile phone?" Don't let me be your herald!"

Xiao Peng picked up the phone: "Hey, Puji, what's the matter?"

Pagio smiled, "Of course congratulations, congratulations on winning the Triple Crown, right?"

Xiao Peng said lightly: "That's not a very simple thing? ”

"I just like the confident way you look, where are you? Why can't I find you? I only see Bob and Pan. Pagio said.

Xiao Peng was stunned: "You have come to the racecourse? I'm here in the back stable." You should be able to find it, right? If you can't find it, I'll let the fierce son pick you up?"

Pagio smiled, "It's okay, you just wait for me!"

It didn't take long for Pagio to come to the two of them: "Xiao, congratulations!"

Xiao Peng and the two of them were lying on the recliner without opening their eyes: "Puji, you just said this." There is beer there, take it yourself and drink it. ”

Pagio coughed dryly, "Well, even if I said it, don't you think that your image is a little unsightly in front of the lady?"

After listening to Pagio's words, the two of them directly opened their eyes and sat up: "Shet, Peggy, you didn't say it earlier." Xiao Peng saw that with him was her wife Mucia Prada.

"Miao, I'm sorry, I thought it was just Pudge. Xiao Peng and Musia hugged and greeted.

Muse smiled, "It's okay, it means that you have a good relationship." ”

Xiao Peng nodded: "That's right, Padgio is a very good friend." I really hope that our friendship will go on forever. ”

Pageo laughed, "Of course, our friendship lasts forever, doesn't it?"

Xiao Peng stretched: "Wait a minute, after our matter here is resolved, let's go eat something together." ”

Muse smiled: "Xiao, eating is necessary, but not eating at your place. ”

Xiao Peng was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"Peggy has already put together a celebration for you, and we're here to invite you to New York." ”

"Celebration banquet, what are you doing so grandly?" Xiao Peng asked puzzled.

Pagio said: "Please, the new crown is our shareholder of Prada, such news must be spread, how can we miss such a good publicity opportunity?"

Muse also said: "Yes, Xiao, there is one thing I haven't told you, our new jockey clothing has been designed, and we will hold a press conference tomorrow, and we will take care of your future jockey uniforms." You're still going to go when the time comes. ”

Xiao Peng scratched his head: "Peggy, Miao Miao, you are squeezing every cent of my value." ”

Pagio shook his head and said, "You're a shareholder of our Prada, isn't that what you should do?"

Xiao Peng sighed: "Alas, it's really not easy to make money these days." ”

Pagio gave him a blank look, "Shet, when this comes out of your mouth, why do I want to hit someone in particular?" Muse snickered as she spoke.

Pagio patted Xiao Peng on the shoulder: "Xiao, okay, don't be reluctant." I have a gift for you. ”

Xiao Peng said directly: "You said it earlier, I would have gone long ago if you said that there was a gift." ”

Padgio was speechless when he heard this: "Hey, hey, can you pay attention to your image? You are the spokesperson of our Prada jockey uniform, you must pay attention to your image." ”

Xiao Peng smiled and said: "There is no one else, what image should I pay attention to? Okay, wait a while, I'll make arrangements, let's go to New York! I heard that New Yorkers say that New York is the center of the universe? Then let's go and open our eyes! But Pudge, I'm afraid you have to wait a little longer, things here are quite troublesome." Wait until Pagio and Pan Peiyu come back. ”

Padgio is now in high spirits, and did not participate in the celebration banquet, but chose to return to China directly, in his words: 'Death for a confidant', Xiao Peng helped him find a place in the Stars and Stripes Country, and it was up to him to repay Xiao Peng for the rest, and now he didn't want to waste a minute of his time. Well, he's getting more and more fond of Chinese culture now, and he's seriously considering immigrating to China.

Pan Peiyu returned to China with Bob, and after sending Bob back to the racecourse, Pan Peiyu would go directly to Los Angeles to attend Di Wei's wedding. These things are easy to handle, but the most troublesome thing is the issue of the breeding rights of the 'Titan', several large breeding companies are pestering Xiao Peng, and the posture is that they don't want Xiao Peng to leave at all.

In the end, Padgio came up with the idea, and in a few days all the interested breeding companies would go to Manhattan and hold a public tender there to see who would give the better conditions and the breeding rights to whom. That's why those breeding companies let Xiao Peng go.

In this way, after the matter was settled, Xiao Peng and the two got into Padgio's car and went straight to New York City, one of the most prosperous areas in the world.
