It was less than six o'clock in the morning.

Lu Xiancheng got up from the bed, changed into the work clothes that Wei Yongping had prepared for him last night, and walked out of the door.

Gently pushed the door open, and suddenly a breath of fresh air squeezed directly into his lungs, and the cool morning air suddenly made Lao Lu feel excited, and his spirit was suddenly shocked.

In the Puhe Valley in the early morning, in addition to the bursts of birdsong, there are also two occasional neighing of horses, and you can't hear half of the noise of the city.

The early morning here is quiet, and the kind of silence that seems to slow down the time, such a sense of comfort suddenly reminds Lu Xiancheng of his hometown small county, maybe there is no such silence in the small county town now, and he can only go to the countryside.

Lu Xiancheng likes this atmosphere very much, and he also likes such a place, and the whole person's spirit is much better in such an environment.

Standing at the door, doing two chest expansion exercises, Lu Xiancheng continued to walk towards the door of the stable, and agreed with Wei Yongping last night, and when Lao Lu was about to start the first horse raising class in his life, it was very simple to brush the horse and do chores.

Before he had taken two steps, Lu Xiancheng found that the gate of the stable was open, and Wei Sanshan came out pushing a wheelbarrow, and on the trolley was nothing else, it was a whole cart of horse manure.

"Awake?" Looking at Lu Xiancheng and smiling slightly, after saying hello, Wei Sanshan pushed his small car fast and walked towards the corner of the ranch.

Pulling open the stable door, Lu Xiancheng entered to find that all the men in the ranch were busy now, Keisuke Kishida was cleaning the stable, and Wei Yongliang was also busy cleaning at the other end of the stable.

"Where's Brother Yongping?" Lu Xiancheng took out a carrot from the plastic bag at his feet, twisted it into two petals, and then twisted it into four small pieces, and walked towards the third stable on his left hand while asking, where it was the dark chestnut horse that Lu Xiancheng bought yesterday.

"He'll be back later," Keisuke Kishida saw Lu Xiancheng come in, stood up, crossed his waist with one hand, and held a shovel handle with the other hand, looking at Lao Lu with a smile.

"I don't have anything to do, it's just that I said yesterday that I would teach me how to brush the horse today" Lu Xiancheng put a piece of carrot in the palm of his hand and spread it out in front of the horse, only to feel that the heat in his palm made him a little itchy, and then he saw that the carrot was gone.

Gently patting the bridge of the horse's nose, Lu Xiancheng was about to feed the second piece.

"It's simple, will you put your head on the bridle or not? I will say you will do it," Keisuke Kishida continued.

Lu Xiancheng nodded, this thing was taught by Wei Yongping last night, although he was not proficient, but Lao Lu felt that he was fine.

Walked back to the door and took a bridle back, one hand gently comforted his horse, and the other took the bridle and slowly put it on the horse's head, the horse was very honest, the horse's head was almost not shaking in the whole process, Lu Xiancheng easily put the bridle on.

The next thing happened, Kishida Keisuke asked Lu Xiancheng to install a side rein on each side of the bridle, and then pulled the horse out of the stable compartment, bolted the two side reins to the rings on both sides of the walkway, and pulled the horse's head tightly to prevent the horse from moving too much.

Next, Lu Xiancheng began to follow what Keisuke Kishida said, brushing hard bristles for a while, and soft brushes for a while, and began to get busy.

Only five minutes later, Lu Xiancheng's head was already sweating.

"This job looks simple, but it's really not easy to do" Lu Xiancheng, who was squatting in the place, was brushing the horse's belly, and said to Keisuke Kishida while brushing.

Keisuke Kishida laughed when he heard this: "What do you think?"

"In my mind, raising horses was poetic, which was to feed the horses in the morning, and then ride the horses out for a walk, or trot or gallop, and find a meadow to lie down at noon, while watching the horses graze, and take a nap for a while...... It's such a life. Who knew that in reality, it became a shoveling horse manure, brushing horse hair, buckling horse hooves, and getting busy endlessly" After speaking, Lu Xiancheng laughed to himself.

Keisuke Kishida said: "Generally speaking, we are like this, and there are also cases of you mentioning, but there are very few people in this part. Let's set off at half past eight o'clock, and take you to see a horse farm today, that person's little life is what you described, nothing to ride a horse and bask in the sun! If you want to enjoy this pastoral life, the first thing is that you have to have money, because you have money to hire people to do all this work for you......."

"Hahaha," the two of them said as they laughed.

Keisuke Kishida raised his head, looked at the horse in the aisle, and asked Lu Xiancheng, "By the way, have you thought of a name for the horse?" ”

"I haven't thought about it yet, I'm not very satisfied after thinking about a few, I think it's average" Lu Xiancheng opened his mouth to answer, to be honest, since he lay on the bed yesterday, Lu Xiancheng wanted to give his horse a loud name, from the beginning of the Heavenly King, the Great Emperor and the like, to the last light dance and flying This kind of small freshness, Lao Lu is not satisfied.

Keisuke Kishida said: "Then you have to think about it quickly, this morning I asked Nagara to take the documents to the JRA agency here to help you apply as a horse owner, and as soon as it is passed, you have to send it to the training center as soon as possible......."

Now Lu Xiancheng kind of understands why the Japanese have a lot of restrictions on foreigners entering Japanese horse racing, because once a horse race in Japan is decided to be sent to the race, the horse is almost always under the control of the JRA.

The JRA has two training centers, one in Mipo and one in Kuritashi, and all horses racing in the JRA are trained full-time at these two centers, and all JRA-certified trainers can only rent stables to train at these two training centers.

To put it more plainly, the owner's decision to let a horse race in the JRA is equivalent to sending the horse to a full-time school, and there is almost nothing to worry about except paying for it.

This is fundamentally different from European and American horse racing training, which is a private model compared to Japan, while Japan seems to be a national model.

Although he only had a one-year lifespan, Lu Xiancheng decided to send his horse to the race, on the one hand, to see if he could get Ben back, and on the other hand, to know what the whole process was about.

There are some things that you can't see just by looking at them, and only when you really get started can you really understand the twists and turns.

"Then think about it quickly, time waits for no one......" Keisuke Kishida reminded Lu Xiancheng, there are still a lot of things to come.

"I know" Lu Xiancheng looked up and replied, when his eyes turned and he saw a handful of peeling fruit planers on the platform not far away, his head immediately moved.

"I've thought about it, let's call it a peeling knife," Lu Xiancheng said happily.

Keisuke Kishida frowned subconsciously when he heard the name, but quickly returned to normal: "It's a little weird, but you can just like it."

"Sharel!" Lu Xiancheng muttered a few back and forth in his mouth, and the more he read, the more he felt good.

Straightened his waist, stretched out his hand and gently rubbed it on the neck of the peeling knife, and said while squeezing: "Peeling knife, good boy, train hard after entering the training center, do you know?" You kid has to spend hundreds of thousands of yen a month, and to be honest, I can't use your living expenses so much in a year, practice hard and run hard! Now I don't expect much from you, if you can win a GII.\GIII. and come back, Dad will be satisfied"

“GⅡ\GⅢ？ Do you think it's buying winter cabbage on the street, and you can go up and take a turn? "KISHIDA KEISUKE CRIED AND LAUGHED WHEN HE HEARD IT, NOT TO MENTION SUCH A HORSE, MANY TENS OF MILLIONS MAY NOT DARE TO GUARANTEE THAT THEY CAN WIN GII.\GIII.? As soon as it came to the Open, there were many good players, and good horses from all over Japan appeared, and Keisuke Kishida was not very optimistic about the peeling knife.

Lu Xiancheng smiled and said half-jokingly: "Young people need a little encouragement!" ”。

Keisuke Kishida said, "Honestly, if this horse doesn't have the problem of legs, it's really a good horse!" Don't say 3 million, it's 30 million, I also encourage you to buy it, big nose, wide breasts, fat buttocks, showing a smart energy inside and out, and this temperament is still very good, I haven't made a fuss since I came, it's a pity."

Listening to Keisuke Kishida's emotion, Lu Xiancheng is only left with hehe's silly music here.

After chatting for a while, Keisuke Kishida came out of the stable, and after a while, Wei Yongping returned to the stable, and saw that Lu Xiancheng was already brushing the horse decently, and he began to be busy with his own affairs, leading a horse and starting to brush.

Yesterday, when the planing knife was bought, almost everyone made a comment, only Wei Yongping didn't say a word, until Lao Lu went back to sleep, Wei Yongping did not express any negative opinion on the planing knife, and helped Lu Xiancheng take good care of it for a night, this situation made Lao Lu naturally feel that this stuffy gourd was a little different.

"What do you think of my peeler?"

Old Lu opened his mouth and asked.

Wei Yongping was stunned: "Shading knife? ”。

"The name I just gave".

Wei Yongping nodded slightly to show that he knew, and then said: "You shouldn't ask me how your horse is, as long as you like this thing, it is priceless." If you don't like it, it's worthless to you. If you really like a peeling knife, it's worth three million, and what does it matter what other people say, the main thing is that you buy a horse that you like."

After listening to Wei Yongping's words, Lu Xiancheng pondered for a while, and when he raised his head, he immediately asked others: "You won't be in the philosophy department of Peking University that you studied in China before, right?" It's a bit esoteric."

"I went to elementary school, and I don't know where the north gate is facing" Wei Yongping took Lu Xiancheng's words a little seriously, and looked at Lao Lu's face with a puzzled expression.

"Forget it, forget it!" Lu Xiancheng waved his hand and continued to brush the horse. Lu Xiancheng found that Wei Yongping was a stuffy gourd who worked hard, and the workload of one person caught up with one and a half people of Yongliang, and Wei Yongping couldn't catch up with Wei Yongliang in terms of eloquence. If Lao Lu is allowed to choose, Lao Lu prefers to work with a diligent stuffy gourd like Wei Yongping.

After brushing the horse, Lu Xiancheng began to clean the stables under the command of Wei Yongping, before today, Lu Xiancheng could not have imagined that a horse could pull out so many rakes overnight, Lu Xiancheng looked at the planing knife and suddenly felt that it might not be a horse that he bought back, but a horse manure making machine.

From six o'clock to eight o'clock, Lu Xiancheng was busy with sweating profusely and taking care of a horse by himself, and Keisuke Kishida and others had already tidied up more than half of the entire stable.

Professional and non-professional standards are now on full display. Lu Xiancheng also felt the hard work of raising horses for the first time.

With the smell of horse manure, Lu Xiancheng returned to his room to take a shower, and then handed over his passport and some things to Wei Yongliang, and this morning he will take these materials to the JRA office to do some preliminary work.

And Keisuke Kishida's side took Lao Lu to the so-called big horse farm to open his eyes!
