Volume 3 Chapter 139 The Gift (Bao I)
Ali seems to be very good at getting close to horses. He stroked and whispered softly to a black horse www.biquge.info looked at his teeth, and specially pulled a handful of grass to feed the horse. Everything was done smoothly.
After doing all this, Ali pressed the horse's back, saw that the horse did not have a big reaction, and said to Li Sheng with a smile: "I think it allows me to ride it." What's its name?"
"There should be no problem. The name hasn't been given yet. "These horses are able to communicate directly with him simply. It is also far superior to ordinary horses in terms of intelligence.
After getting his consent, Ali whispered in the horse's ear, "Baby, take it easy." I'm not going to hurt you. As he spoke, he put the reins of the saddle under the horse's nose and let it smell it.
The horse's ears flicked a few times.
Ali smiled and carefully tied the saddle to the horse. He found that the horse did not show any uneasiness, and said to Li Sheng with a smile: "This horse is very docile!"
Li Sheng smiled and said, "You have to be careful, these horses have been free-range for a period of time and may have a certain amount of wildness." "The horse that Ali is going to ride now, he is not worried. But he was worried that Ali still wanted to ride horses that were already wild horses.
As he spoke, he also fastened the saddle to the back of the flaming horse king, and put the reins on it. When Ali had finished it, he turned on his horse and said, "Be careful, these horses haven't been ridden for a long time." "He may be able to communicate with the horse, but some of it will be a flash of lightning, even if he controls what should have happened to the horse.
Ali didn't pay attention to his words, and with a light kick on the horse's belly, the horse began to slowly want to go down the hill. It's not fast, though. Li Sheng also followed.
The king of horses soon crossed Ali's horse. The dark horse was driven by Ali and did not dare to follow and walk side by side.
They soon came to the bottom of the hillside, where the terrain was relatively flat, and Li Sheng kicked the horse's belly. The red horse began to accelerate, and Li Sheng seemed to be able to sense its [excitement].
The king of horses ran, and the horses followed. The black horse under Ali's crotch followed Li Sheng's side, but it always fell a distance from a horse's head. This red horse is only an adult, and it is the fastest of all the horses. And also very young horse king. It's good that this group of horses can keep up.
The speed of the horses is very fast, Li Sheng and Ali can't talk at all, and they can pour a breath of wind with one mouth. Slowly, the red horse and the black horse drove some distance. The other horses are much more backward.
They rode their horses and ran for about five or six kilometers, and Li Sheng felt that it was almost over, and he had experienced everything. Then he pulled the reins of the horse and told the red horse to stop.
The red horse's double kick was raised high and a long hiss.
It took about ten seconds for Ali to catch up.
He smiled and said, "I didn't feel it when I looked at it from a distance just now." This horse is faster than any horse I've ever ridden. Of course, your red horse is faster. He turned over and dismounted, touched the horse's neck for a while, and asked Li Sheng, who was doing the same thing, as he touched it. "What kind of pedigree is this? I've never heard of it before. ”
"It's a new horse. It's not yet named. Li Sheng can only perfunctory the past.
"Are you planning to sell these horses?"
Li Sheng didn't have this plan. He didn't have any plans to bring horses to horse races. If you sell it like this, it is impossible to sell it at any price without any fame.
But when he heard Ali ask, he knew that he wanted to buy this dark horse. He wasn't very reluctant. After all, he can communicate with him, and although he is just an animal, he is also an animal that has become special.
So he said, "I don't plan to sell this red horse, your black horse, and the four that have been following you on the road." This is what I intend to keep as a stallion. The others can give you a horse. But those can be said to be wild horses. You need to tame it if you want to take it. ”
Ali fell in love with this dark horse, and was a little disappointed when he heard Li Sheng say this. To be honest, Li Sheng's red horse is the best of this group of horses. But he knew that Li Sheng couldn't let go. So we have to settle for the next best thing. However, Li Sheng didn't seem to intend to satisfy him.
Of course, he is also a good horse man, and knows that a good stallion is hard to find. If it were him, he would never have sold such a horse.
Of course, he was not completely disappointed. Just now he also noticed that although the group of horses behind him was a little slower, even then, their speed was very fast. And the stamina is also very good.
Such horses, if trained, should be better than the ones he has now.
However, he decided to buy a horse on the impromptu basis, not thinking that he would buy it back and train to be a racehorse. There are still a number of requirements to qualify for many horse races. For some high-level races, it is also necessary to provide information such as the pedigree of the horse, as well as the registration information of the horse club. And these horses have not been named, let alone the origin of the bloodline. Ali wanted to buy horses mainly to bring them back to the Middle East and breed with his racehorses. Let's see if we can produce better racehorses.
Although he couldn't get the horse he liked, Li Sheng said that he was quite satisfied with the fact that he could give him another horse. Those horses weren't slow, at least in speed. And it's really nice that such a tall horse can have such a running ability. This horse has a broad chest and long, robust legs, and is at least an excellent breed of long-distance racehorse.
They let the horses rest for a minute or so, and then rode back to where they had come. But this time it wasn't running, it was more like a stroll. The two walked almost side by side. Ali said, "You seem to be doing a good job. I think this should make for a very good racehorse. But they're not well-known right now, and they're not well priced. ”
Li Sheng knows that the price of racing horses is high and low, but the high prices are all bred with famous horses. So what Ali said was right. He also understood what the other party was trying to say. He just smiled and said, "There's no need to talk about the price." Think of it as my gift to you. ”
When Ali heard him say this, he stopped refusing and said, "I have a foal on me." It looks like it's supposed to be a year and a half old. ”
Li Sheng didn't expect that he had already chosen, and asked, "Which one?"
"The one that was all black, with a diamond-shaped white spot on its forehead and white hair on its feet. ”
Li Sheng also saw a half-sized horse just now. It looks really pretty. He nodded and said, "Ponies are indeed easier to tame. And I think that horse should be the son of the horse you are riding. ”
"Really?" Ali was a little surprised.
"These adult Mali are the only ones that are black. I think the one you have your eye on was born to him and a white mare. Li Sheng said with a smile.
Actually, he's just. A horse of that size is at least more than a year old. It should be the pony that was brought out of the space in the first place. The herd of horses in the space can be made up of many dark horses.
But he saw that Ali seemed to have a soft spot for the dark horse, so he told a white lie to make him happy.
Ali was very happy and said, "I like this gift very much. ”
Li Sheng didn't know if these horses were suitable for racing. Even if it is very valuable, Li Sheng will not feel distressed at all if he will give one to Ali. After all, he owes Ali a lot of favors. If Ali hadn't lent him $10 billion last time, he might not have been able to bring down Cargill in Brazil. Not to mention making more than $10 billion in profits.
And if you can make a name for yourself in the racing circle, maybe you can make the horses of Silent Farm famous. Sending horses can also be seen as an investment.
When they reached the hillside where they had set out, they loosened their reins and saddles, and the sun was setting in the west, and they took the helicopter back to the villa.
In the evening, Li Sheng invited Ali to his villa for dinner. After talking for a while, Ali left. Li Sheng called Babur and asked him to make a detailed list of the farm's agricultural products.
At eight o'clock the next morning, Ali prayed last night, and then came to Li Sheng's place for breakfast. After that, Li Sheng handed the list of products sent by Babur and said: "I know that the things that you Middle Easterners taboo have been eliminated. There may be something else in this that I don't know. ”
Ali smiled. Li Sheng's respect for this detail made him feel comfortable.
He took the list and looked down at it. He discovered that there were actually a lot of agricultural products produced at Silent Farm.
Beef, poultry eggs, poultry, caviar, truffles, matsutake mushrooms, rice, flour, sesame, peanuts, coffee, cocoa, tea, honey, and twelve kinds of mushrooms.
He took a look and felt that the eggs and meat were not suitable for him to be a surrogate. Unless those things are airlifted by plane, it is still more troublesome to transport. Unless poultry meat is frozen, it is impossible to ship it, and eggs are not frozen at all. But I'm afraid that no one in the Middle East, except for migrant workers, wants to eat frozen poultry meat.
Other than that, everything else can actually be tried to sell. He crossed out chickens, ducks, geese, and several kinds of meat and eggs, and then returned the list to Li Sheng and said: "Except for the ones I deleted, the others should have markets in the Middle East." ”
Li Sheng saw the ones he crossed out, nodded and said, "Then you do market research first, how much do you need for the goods you plan to represent." If I can increase production, I will try to increase production, if not. This requires discussing with Fernando and Chen Bo how to redistribute the quota. ”
"Of course. ”
Li Sheng didn't care much about what Ali planned to act as an agent or not. The main market for poultry meat and eggs on the farm is Brazil. And the number of farms is not very large. As for mushrooms other than matsutake and truffles, they are now also sold in the Eurasian market and the Brazilian market. But for these things, it is still more convenient to expand production capacity. But for others, if you want to expand production capacity, the investment is not small. Li Sheng may not be willing.
Ali finished these things, but he didn't leave immediately. He was waiting for his personal trainer to come over. He was going to tame the horse Li Sheng gave him first. Once tamed, transport it back as soon as possible. (To be continued.) )
