After going down the gravel road paved in the mountains, and after a small turn in the back mountain, a small horse farm that looks very quaint appears in front of Mr. Fujimoto.

After pushing the door in, a tall steed with chestnut hair and a tall figure running inside the fence attracted all the attention of Dr. Fujimoto.

The horse's head was medium in size, with a long, straight neck that was diagonally forward. Shiri is long, in the shape of a regular jiri, with a deep and long chest, tall and powerful limbs, a body of muscles that grow in a strip shape, and a mane that grows densely on the neck.

Looking at the chestnut stallion pacing around in the enclosure of the horse farm, Dr. Fujimoto said in admiration: "It is worthy of a British thoroughbred, and it is really charming." ”

Thoroughbred mat refers to a breed of horses whose ancestors can be traced back to three ancestral stallions, Darean Arabia, Godelfinn Babu and Pereturki.

The three horses are named after three well-respected British horse owners: Thomas Darley, Lord Godolphin and Captain Robertybyerly.

The three stallions were transported to England from the Mediterranean and the Middle East in the 17th century.

These horses were then mated/mated with stronger but late-maturing British landraces, and a new breed of horses was born, the thoroughbreds.

The birth of thoroughbreds also inspired a new type of sport, horse racing, which was supported by the aristocracy and loved by the commoners in England from the very beginning.

Every thoroughbred horse is recorded by a special agency from birth, and its father and mother can be traced up to the number of generations.

Hearing Mr. Fujimoto's heartfelt praise, Mr. Minamino said proudly, "Tempest is a descendant of the Northland dancers, a champion of the first division, and it is a great racehorse. ”

Although he has never owned a horse, Mr. Fujimoto, a veterinarian, can understand how the owner feels about his horse.

This thoroughbred racing horse is very vigilant, and unfamiliar light yì will not let them get close to him, so Mr. Fujimoto's examination can only start with a visit.

Choosing a backlit location, Mr. Fujimoto began to observe the thoroughbred named Storm on his own.

Well, the eyes are bright, the fur is shiny, and there is no discharge from the nose and the edges of the mouth.

When running, the gait is light, the expression is alert and the reaction is flexible, and the distribution of muscles does not show any abnormalities, and the horse has no problems with the shape alone.

Thinking about the stack of checklists of horses that Mr. Minamino gave him, the examination items listed on it were very complete, and he almost carried the horses out for a full body X-ray.

In order to allow Dr. Fujimoto to see the problem of this horse more directly, Minamino Xun motioned to the breeder on the sidelines to bring a mare in heat.

The keeper brought a little marre over as he said, and the gentlemen hurriedly hid aside to observe secretly, trying not to disturb the horses.

I saw that inside the wooden fence, the reaction of the two horses was normal at first.

Smelling the mare's heat, the pure-blooded chestnut stallion couldn't help but look up at the mare frequently.

The maroon maroon mare, who noticed the stallion's sight, generously looked the maroon stallion up and down, and found that the stallion was not only in good shape, but also a handsome man, and was very satisfied with this.

The eye-catching mare walked over with her hooves and tentatively blew her nose in the direction of the chestnut stallion, but the storm was dodged.

The little marish was stunned when she saw this, thinking that this handsome guy was shy, so she felt that she should take the initiative.

So the mare kicked a few more steps forward and stuck out her head to rub the stallion's neck.

Tempest's reaction this time was much more violent, only to see it quickly retreat, shaking its head and showing a mouthful of big horse teeth at the mare, warning the mare not to go near it.

The little mare who wanted to make out was completely dumbfounded, and after reacting, she turned around in anger and kept digging the ground with her hind hooves towards the chestnut stallion.

Hmph, I can't look down on the old lady, the old lady still can't look down on you.

Phew, whoever wants to give you a pony, I wish you a father-in-law as soon as possible.

The little mare, who had been covered in dirt from the chestnut stallion, ran angrily to his keeper and put his head on the keeper's chest through the wooden fence, signaling him to hurry up and lead him out.

Its keeper was not very good-looking, and while comforting his own horse, he led it outward.

While holding the breeder, he secretly pouted, thinking in his heart: "And, I can't look down on my daughter, my daughter still can't look down on you, such a willful breed/male/horse, sooner or later one day will be gelding."

Seeing that a similar scene appeared again, Nanno Xun couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "That's it, Doctor Fujimoto, look at it, it's clear that the storm is also excited, but it just doesn't want to get close to the mare." “

Dr. Fujimoto kept thinking about the scene just now, and then analyzed the numbers he had obtained back and forth in his mind, and after thinking about it, he couldn't find anything wrong with this horse.

In the end, Mr. Fujimoto had no choice but to say, "Mr. Xun, I'm really embarrassed. I didn't know how bad my horse was. ”

Hearing this, Nanno Xun's eyes were a little dim and said: "Mr. Fujimoto, you don't have to blame yourself, you can't be blamed for this matter, it's my stormy temper that is really weird." “

Nan Yecheng took his brother's fan and fanned the wind a few times at this time and said: "Brother, if you want me to say that it really can't work, you just take the method of artificial insemination/spermation, anyway, your purpose is just to improve the bloodline of our horse farm, where to use it so troublesome." “

Nan Ye Xun listened to his younger brother's words, snatched his fan and said, "You guy, don't talk too much if you don't understand, it will make people laugh if you let the connoisseur hear it." “

Hearing this, Nanno Cheng scratched the back of his head and asked, "Why is this still a point?" “

Seeing that the two brothers were about to quarrel, Dr. Fujimoto hurriedly dissuaded him and said, "Mr. Cheng, every thoroughbred horse must be filed in the association. In addition, the association will also register a thoroughbred horse as a mixed thoroughbred horse as long as it is a mixed thoroughbred horse that has been bred naturally through a legal way. However, you have also heard the premise just now, it is necessary to breed naturally through a legal way, and artificial insemination is obviously not natural breeding, so the pony obtained by this means of guò is not recognized by the association, and naturally it will not be registered. “

The direction implied by Dr. Fujimoto's words is actually quite obvious.

The reason why thoroughbred horses are valuable is because of good results, and then there is a question of pedigree.

Every horse with thoroughbred blood, from birth to inception, the important things it has experienced are basically recorded, and the horses can be traced.

It is internationally recognized that within 200 years, the paternal or maternal line can be traced back to the lineage of three ancestral horses, and the horse is recognized as having thoroughbred blood.

A thoroughbred horse that has not been registered and has no pedigree certificate is of no value unless it competes for the title of champion.

It is related to the future status and economic benefits of the entire horse farm, so Minamino Xun is so anxious about the problem of Storm's refusal to mate/breed.

However, there is no problem with the stallion's physical function at all, but it is the problem of refusing to get close to the mare, and Dr. Fujimoto has encountered it for the first time.

As an accomplished veterinarian, he has always had a keen interest in a wide range of intractable diseases.

So after explaining the pedigree of the thoroughbred to Mr. Minamino Nari, Mr. Fujimoto lifted the glasses on the bridge of his nose and asked Minamino Xun, "Mr. Xun, I am very interested in the problem with the chestnut thoroughbred stallion in your horse farm. Can I come back from time to time to check on the horse and record some numbers so that I can do some research? “

For the thoroughbred horse that he bought back at a great price, Nanno Xun has no temper now.

As long as anyone can think of a way to just have it, Minamino Xun has the mind to offer the other party.

So in response to Mr. Fujimoto's active request, Minamino Xun couldn't help but say: "Of course there is no problem, I will talk to the manager of the racecourse, and in the future, Mr. Fujimoto, you can freely enter and exit my racecourse anytime and anywhere." “

Lying on the diagnosis and treatment in the hospital office, Xu Jie looked at Dr. Fujimoto who was burying his head in sorting out the information with an inquiring expression.

After he came back from that trip to enjoy cherry blossoms, Xu Jie felt that something was wrong with the doctor's state.

Every day, the doctor tries to arrange the work to be completed in the morning, and if it is not completed in the morning, the doctor will definitely work overtime, and even eat lunch while treating the animals at the busiest time at noon.

And the reason why he did this was to squeeze out time to drive to the racecourse to see a racehorse that was said to be unbehaving for unknown reasons.

In the past few days, because of going out early and returning late, Dr. Fujimoto's weight has dropped a lot, and when he changed his clothes this morning, Xu Jie watched the belt he tied inward as usual.

In the past, Mr. Fujimoto was busy with work, but every day at noon, he would have an hour to catch up on his sleep.

But in the past few days, Mr. Fujimoto has not to say that he has made up for sleep and rested, he even eats like fighting, and he needs to rush to come.

Looking at Dr. Fujimoto, who was obviously a lot haggard due to lack of rest, Xu Jie finally couldn't help it.

So when the doctor wanted to drive out today, Xu Jie grabbed his trouser leg with his claws without saying a word.

Meow, take the cat to the horse farm, the cat wants to see, what kind of horse is so difficult to do, and actually tired our conscientious doctor like this?

Looking at a cat that picked up his trouser leg and refused to let go of anything, Dr. Fujimoto, who couldn't get rid of it, had to say, "Okay, okay, I'll take you with me." But Dasheng, you must be obedient when you go to someone else's horse farm, don't run around and cause trouble for the master's family, you know? “

Hearing that he promised to take them with him, Xu Jie let go of his paws holding his trouser legs, waged his tail and followed the doctor, and got into the car with him.
