(Book friends with guaranteed monthly passes, get one!)
On the day of the race, before the race began, a large number of cowboys gathered around the newly renovated racecourse.
With all kinds of snacks and drinks in their hands, they talked and laughed with each other, and they looked like they were going to a camping party, not at all like they were watching a horse race.
Tang Ming's family all rode over and stopped in front of the racecourse.
Tang Ming saw everyone's appearance and said to Alan beside him: "Go to my wine cellar and get some red wine and share it for everyone." ”
"Okay, boss, I'll take someone to get it. Alan immediately turned his horse's head, called a few more cowboys, and ran in the direction of the villa.
"It's so lively in the ranch today!" Su Huiqin sighed.
"yes, I don't usually see so many people. Tang Jianguo said.
There are a lot of cowboys in the ranch, more than 3,000 people, but the ranch is much larger, more than 3 million acres, and these cowboys are scattered in such a large ranch It seems very rare.
"Mom and Dad, you like to be lively, then we can hold more activities in the future. Tang Ming said with a smile.
"You can have some basketball games, football games, tennis games and so on, and there are so many people on our ranch that there should be a lot of people who enjoy these sports. Cornelia said.
"Well, wife, I'll leave these activities to you in the future. Tang Ming said with a grin.
Cornelia knew that he was trying to be lazy, so she gave him an angry look, but she still agreed.
Tang Xiaoyu and Shen Qiufeng came over in a pickup truck, stopped next to Tang Ming's family, and got out of the car.
"Xiao Yu, have you brought any prizes and gifts?" Tang Ming asked.
"Uncle, don't worry, I've checked it, I've brought it all, and I haven't forgotten it. Tang Xiaoyu said.
"If there is no prize for the winner, I can settle the score with you. Tang Ming warned.
"How is this possible, am I a person who likes to lose everything?" Although Tang Xiaoyu said this, he was still quite unconfident in his heart, and went back to the car to check it again before he was relieved.
After waiting for a while, Song Qian, Ou En and Stilwell came over with someone.
This time they were also prepared, Ou En and Stilwell both brought more than ten people, only Song Qian brought fewer people, only five, four of them were women.
"Wife, these are your opponents. Tang Ming pointed to the woman brought by Song Qian and said to Cornelia.
Cornelia glanced at them, but stopped paying attention to them, apparently not seeing them as rivals.
Song Qian, Ou En and Stilwell came over to greet Tang Ming's family, and after greeting each other, Tang Ming said: "I have already opened the back door for you, don't let the people you bring lose too badly, otherwise the cowboys may not know how to scold me in their hearts." ”
"Boss, we're here for the championship, not to admit defeat, and if we win, your cowboys won't let us leave with the prize. Stilwell said confidently.
"I hope you'll be so confident later. Tang Ming said with a smile.
While they were laughing, the game was about to begin.
Mike walked up to the stage, took the microphone, coughed, and asked, "Boss, do you have anything to say?"
Tang Ming waved his hand, indicating that he had nothing to say.
"Then I won't say anything, the race starts, the first one is the hurdles, the cowboys get ready. With that, Mike came down from the stage.
Thirty cowboys who made it to the finals mounted their horses and waited in front of the gate.
The cowboys rode all quart and American flower horses, which Tang Ming requested, and if someone rode a professional racehorse, it would not be fair to others.
"Let's go. "One of the cowboys acted as a referee for the time being, and when all the cowboys were ready, they opened the gates, shouted, and all the cowboys rode out.
"Come on, Chen Xiao, come on. ”
"Rush, Crane. ”
"Come on. ”
“……”
The surrounding audience shouted and cheered on their friends.
Big Fat and Fat Erfat, Xiaobai, and Hercules were all here, startled by the deafening shouts, and ran to play elsewhere.
"The atmosphere is very good, boss, have you ever considered continuing this competition and holding it every year?" Song Qian said.
"I've thought about it for a long time, but I didn't know how it would work out, but now it looks really good, so I decided to hold it every year in the future, and the time is set for today. Tang Ming said.
"The boss, Akane, drinks. Alan came over with two glasses of red wine, handed them to Tang Ming and Song Qian respectively, and then turned around and left.
Tang Ming took the wine glass, took a sip, and asked Song Qian, "When you were at home, was it also Alan who served you?"
"Boss, when did you care about my family affairs?" asked Song Qian with a roll of her eyes.
"I'm not concerned about your family affairs, but I'm afraid that you will bully Alan. Tang Ming said.
The hurdle race track was not long, only less than two kilometers, and when Tang Ming and Song Qian were talking, the race had come to an end, and a jujube red quart horse was far ahead, leaving all the other horses behind.
"Wow, won. ”
"Simon, you're the best. ”
"Simon, I love you. ”
“……”
Listening to the shouts of the people around him, Tang Ming knew that the cowboy who won the championship was called Simon.
The first game is over, it's time to award prizes, Mike wants Tang Ming to come on stage to present awards to the winning cowboys, but Tang Ming has already promised Cornelia that if she wins, she will be awarded the award, so he can only take the microphone to say sorry to everyone and explain the reason.
Although the three people who won were a little disappointed, they were also very understanding, Tang Ming went up to give each of them a hug, and then got off the stage.
Since Tang Ming couldn't present the awards in person, Mike invited Song Qian, Ou En and Stilwell to the stage and asked them to present awards to the champion, runner-up and third runner-up respectively.
When they handed over the gold bricks to the three winners, there was another burst of cheers from the audience.
Although the other cowboys who participated in the finals did not win the grand prize, they also had consolation prizes, and each of them paid a 100-gram gold bar, which was not in vain.
The second race was the men's flat race, which was the highlight of the day, and the reason why it was not scheduled for the final finale was because Mike put the women's flat race last.
As for why this is done, it is naturally because the women's flat race has Cornelia participating, and as the proprietress of the ranch, this privilege is still there, and others will not say anything.
The flat races were more intense, and the number of participants in the finals was even higher, reaching 50.
If it is a regular track, it may not be able to accommodate so many players, but this track is temporary and not too professional, as long as it can be lined up, as many people can participate.
The champion of the flat race was beyond everyone's expectations, it was a Chinese cowboy, and it was not Chen Xiao that Tang Ming had seen ten days ago, but a cowboy named Duan Yanshan.
