Chapter 028: The Kishida Family's Ranch
At the request of Keisuke Kishida, Lu Xiancheng asked the old man to send him back to the small hotel, and agreed to go to Hokkaido with Keisuke Kishida early tomorrow morning, saying that he was going to Keisuke Kishida's house as a guest, but in fact, both of them knew that Lao Lu was mainly to buy horses this time.
Speaking of horse trading, in the past, Japan was mainly based on yard trading, and the so-called yard trade is probably known by everyone when you hear the name, that is, trading in the pasture, handing over money and handing over horses is a very primitive way of trading.
Later, the Japanese learned from foreigners, and gradually began to auction transactions, the auction will be from the foal of the year, to the two-year-old horse, untrained to the trained horse, the auction will also be a fixed time every year, this year's auction has ended, next year's auction will be as early as April 14, Kyushu training horse auction, located at Saga Racecourse, organized by the Kyushu Light ** Association.
Now Lu Xiancheng is of course unable to buy a horse on this trip, this time Lao Lu mainly wants to buy a horse through the old method of trading in the yard, in Lu Xiancheng's heart, the entry-level must be a silver-crowned horse, and the best price is lower, or it will be meaningless, you say yes.
When he made an appointment to leave tomorrow morning, Keisuke Kishida didn't stop too much, and drove back to his accommodation directly.
Raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door of the room, and after hearing a sound coming in from inside, Lu Xiancheng twisted his hand and pushed open the door and walked in.
As soon as he entered the door, Lu Xiancheng looked, hey, it's just right! The two tour guides and the tour leader are there, and now these three are eating hot pot around a small alcohol stove.
"Little Lu, sit down and eat a little?"
The team leader is a short and fat man in his thirties, I don't know what his big name is, but everyone calls him Team Leader Wang, a big round face is oily and shiny, although he is fat, but this one is not like others who are fat and ugly, this fat one is also a little likable, and he looks like a thief.
Lu Xiancheng hurriedly waved his hand, pulled a bench and sat down: "You guys eat, I'm here to tell you something, I want to go to Hokkaido tomorrow, and I'll come back the day before I return to ......."
After telling his thoughts to the servants, Lu Xiancheng stopped talking and looked at Leader Wang and waited for him to answer.
Team Leader Wang couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and after thinking for a few seconds in his head, he said: "Although we are a loose group, we don't restrict everyone's activities here in Tokyo. But it's a bit inappropriate for you to say that you want to go to Hokkaido......"
Team Leader Wang immediately began to teach Lu Xiancheng a lesson.
"That's right!" A female tour guide surnamed Wu, who was also in her thirties, also interjected and said, "We are also in line with the statement that we are responsible for the safety of your life. Besides, if we let you go, and you don't show up when we return home, we're ...... at risk."
Lu Xiancheng listened and replied: "Are you still afraid that I will run away?" Let's put it this way, if I want to run, I will disappear as soon as I arrive in Japan? I'm going to go to Japan to see where people raise horses, and I want to see if I can make such a ...... in China."
While talking nonsense, Lu Xiancheng took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to Leader Wang, and lit a fire for others by the way, and then said this seven points of truth and three points of hypothesis.
"You're going alone? Can you find it if you are not familiar with the place? Besides, you don't understand the language, and your English is not good, so don't do anything to make it difficult for everyone! ”。
Hearing Lu Xiancheng say this, Guide Chen, who was sitting opposite Team Leader Wang, immediately said.
This tour guide Chen is the one who asked Lu Xiancheng for help last time, but later failed to do it because of Najiao.
Hearing what Tour Guide Chen said, Team Leader Wang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and after a flash of playfulness in his eyes, he returned to normal, and finally fell on Lu Xiancheng after glancing at Guide Chen's body with a smile.
Lu Xiancheng didn't notice the playfulness in Guide Chen's eyes, and continued: "This time it's not me alone, it's me who met a Japanese rancher at the horse farm, and I went with him. Otherwise, if you don't feel at ease, wait for him to come and pick me up tomorrow morning, and I'll ask him to show you his identification, and leave another phone number, and I'll call you once a day to get through, do you think this will work? ”。
"That's a good idea!" Team Leader Wang nodded without hesitation after hearing this, and without waiting for his two colleagues to speak, he and Lu Xiancheng finalized the matter.
"Then tomorrow you ask the rancher to meet with us, if we haven't received your call for two days in a row, then we will call the police and notify the embassy by the way."
Lu Xiancheng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard what Team Leader Wang said, Lao Lu didn't expect things to go so smoothly at all, and he still had three red envelopes in his pocket, each with 5,000 yen.
At the beginning, Lu Xiancheng felt that this matter was a little difficult to handle when he heard the words of Team Leader Wang, but who knew that he didn't talk about it and immediately turned around, could it be that after winning the jackpot, the buddy even went up with his character?
Thinking so in his mind, Lao Lu's mouth was not slow, and he nodded directly and said with a smile: "That's certain!" When the time comes, you have to remember what he looks like, and if I lose it, I will trouble you to find him."
The excited Lao Lu still wanted to say something, but Team Leader Wang seemed a little impatient, raised the chopsticks in his hand and waved lightly: "Is there anything else?" If you're okay, sit down and eat something together? ”。
Lu Xiancheng was naturally not so blind, the original intention of the team leader Wang was not to let him sit down and eat, but to let himself get acquainted and walk away quickly.
"Then you eat first, I won't bother you" Lu Xiancheng smiled at the servants after speaking, turned around and closed the door and walked out of the house.
"What if he runs away?" Guide Wu asked to Team Leader Wang.
Team Leader Wang said: "If you really want to run, you have already run, why are we in this group walking group so much?" Speaking of this, he stopped and said to Guide Chen: "Xiao Chen, I see that you are very interested in this young man, what's the matter?" Got a crush on someone? ”。
"Nothing!" Tour Guide Chen resolutely denied: "It's just a half-grown hairy child, how can I fall in love with him."
"It's good that we don't like it, we also have to have a bit of work ethic......" Team Leader Wang said lightly while eating a small hot pot.
The corners of Guide Wu's mouth tugged at what he heard, and the disdain in his eyes flashed.
Lao Lu, who left the leader's room, took the key directly from the front desk and went back to his room.
After opening the door and thinking about it for a while, he closed the door again and walked to the door of Aunt Zhu's room and knocked on the door.
"Who?"
"Me, Little Lu!"
"Little Lu, come in quickly"
Pushing the door and walking in, I saw Aunt Zhu and Aunt Zhang watching TV, and at a glance, I found that it was still a Chinese channel.
"Xiao Lu, hurry up and sit down, Auntie just bought some good things today," Aunt Zhu said, took a kiwi from the plate in front of her and handed it to Lu Xiancheng.
Lu Xiancheng took it and said: "Aunt Zhu, I'm going to go to Hokkaido tomorrow, and it will take three days to come back, and my room won't be used in the next few days, if you can't put something down, just throw it over there!" ”
"What are you going to do in Hokkaido?" Aunt Zhu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then asked with concern: "You are a young man who is not familiar with the place, and your English is not good, what are you running around, besides, Hokkaido is cold now." Listen to Auntie, this time, don't run around, wait for the next time you have a good season with Auntie."
Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "Xiao Zhu, don't persuade this kid, he has the right idea in his heart" After speaking, she asked Lu Xiancheng in detail about Lu Xiancheng's plans and time arrangements.
Lu Xiancheng roughly talked about the things he knew about Keisuke Kishida, and of course omitted the matter of guessing the Ma Cai Grand Prize.
Aunt Zhang listened and asked, "Is that person reliable?" ”。
"No problem!" Lu Xiancheng said. It's not that Lu Xiancheng is a big guy and is willing to believe Keisuke Kishida unreservedly, but when he was at the Tokyo Racecourse, Lu Xiancheng had already explained that he wanted to go to Hokkaido to see the Japanese horse racing breeding ranch, and the people in JRA were also quite enthusiastic and agreed to take Lu Xiancheng to see it.
These JRA people also know that Keisuke Kishida will go with him, and even if Keisuke Kishida has evil intentions, this is the way to die. Besides, just like Keisuke Kishida himself said, this money has been clearly Lao Lu's, even if Lao Lu is hung up, Keisuke Kishida has no ability to withdraw this money from the bank.
To sum up, Lao Lu thinks that Keisuke Kishida, an old man, is still reliable, even if he has such a disgraceful mind in his heart, he should know that he can't do it.
Aunt Zhang asked a few more questions, and then said to Lu Xiancheng: "This person seems to be quite good, but he always needs more ...... when he goes out."
Hearing that the two aunts cared so much about themselves, Lu Xiancheng scratched his head embarrassedly: "Thank you, Aunt Zhang!" ”。 Although Lu Xiancheng felt a little cold when he was going to eat first, but now that he has to slip alone, people can still think so much about himself, and Lao Lu naturally wants to accept Aunt Zhang's affection in his heart.
"Pay more attention to yourself!" Aunt Zhang said with a smile.
Originally, Aunt Zhang was a little cold, but through the observation of the past two days, I felt that Lao Lu was a good guy, but then again, who doesn't like a diligent and enthusiastic guy.
After chatting with the two aunts while watching TV for a while, Lu Xiancheng returned to his room, took a shower and lay down on the bed, but he couldn't sleep, and his mind was full of four or eight billion yen gray tickets.
Lao Lu didn't know what was going on in his head, and he didn't fall asleep until half past three in the morning, and when he opened his eyes again, it was not even seven in the morning.
After waiting for Keisuke Kishida to come over, Lao Lu left Keisuke Kishida's information to Team Wang, and the two boarded the plane and headed for Hokkaido.
Arriving in Hokkaido, Keisuke Kishida's buddy came to pick him up, about forty years old, and the Chinese spoke fluent northern Chinese.
Along the way, if Lu Xiancheng went to a place with few people, he could see one ranch after another jumping out of his eyes everywhere, these ranches were very good from the outside, and there were not many traces of Japanese style, so it was a bit like seeing European and American ranches in a movie. Looking at the high-grade pastures on the side of the road, Lu Xiancheng couldn't help but have high expectations for Keisuke Kishida's ranches.
It's a pity that Lao Lu forgot that the more disappointed he was, the greater the disappointment, and when the miniature Toyota carried Lao Lu to Kishida Ranch, Lu Xiancheng didn't know how to describe the ranch in front of him.
I have to say that since this journey, the ranch that Lao Lu has seen, this one is the smallest, not only the stable is small, the round horse training ground does not even have a roof, and less than ten meters away from the stable is a two-story small wooden building, in addition to a warehouse and a small loft with an attic that is slightly smaller than the wooden building.
There is only one piece of grassland in the entire Kishida Ranch, and there are two or three pieces of grassland in other people's pastures along the way. It is estimated that such a pasture will not be able to be marked on Google Maps in the future.
Looking at the ranch in front of him, Lu Xiancheng thought: Old Kishida is really a mess!
