Chapter 094: The Horse Dressing Field
Lu Xiancheng squatted for a while and looked at the chicks in the dustpan and asked, "Fellow, how much is a chick?" ”。
"Sanmao!"
"So expensive?" As soon as Lu Xiancheng heard the price, he immediately replied.
In fact, Lu Xiancheng didn't know the price of chicken seedlings, even if people said two points, Lu Xiancheng would come to such a sentence, and the price of the root had nothing to do with it.
When the old farmer who sold the chickens heard this, he immediately said: "It's not expensive, we are local chickens!" ”。
"It's cheaper" Lu Xiancheng doesn't care about any local chickens or foreign chickens at present, mainly because he wants to raise some chickens in his own pasture, and it is convenient to fight teeth in the ranch later.
"How much do you want?" The chicken seller opened his mouth and asked.
"Let's have two hundred" Lu Xiancheng thought for a while, and felt that his place was so big, two hundred chickens were enough, and in the process of raising, maybe some of them would be killed, and now the ranch is full of twenty young men, counting on how fine they can be Old Lu Ke didn't have so much confidence, so he added another hundred to become three hundred.
"Two cents and eight one".
Lu Xiancheng smiled when he heard this: "You gave me two cents cheaper."
"That's right, uncle, three hundred, you can give it cheaper" Zhang Ru shook her mouth at this time and said, reaching out to tease the chick in the burden as she spoke.
The old man of the egg was about to speak, when he suddenly stood up and shouted loudly, and picked up the flat pole as if he were facing a great enemy.
It didn't matter if the old man drank it, he directly startled Lu Xiancheng, Zhang Ru and Mei Qinrui were also frightened, and almost threw out the two chicks in their hands.
Following the old man's gaze, Lu Xiancheng saw his own Erha, and at this time, Erha was also frightened by the old man's voice. Standing there, it seemed that he felt that he was neither good at entering nor retreating, and a dog's face was full of depression.
"Old man, it doesn't bite," Lu Xiancheng hurriedly said.
The old man who sold the chicken cubs did not relax: "I'm not afraid of biting, I'm afraid that it will bite my chickens!" ”。
Boom! When Lao Lu heard this, he said in his heart: Another master who wants money and doesn't want to die!
He waved at Erha and motioned for him to go back to the car.
Erha reluctantly took three steps and turned around to move on the car, looking at a group of fluffy chicks full of eyes, it is estimated that the grass is about to grow in its heart, and it doesn't know how much it wants to play with these little things in its heart.
"Done. That's the price, count three hundred for me" Lu Xiancheng watched the old man squat down again, and hurriedly said.
The old man looked at Lu Xiancheng and asked, "Do you have anything to put in it?" ”。
Hearing this, Lu Xiancheng scratched his head again, how could he have a place to put the chicks now, even if he bought the old man's dustpan, he didn't take it, and this thing couldn't be stuffed into the car with a diameter of nearly two meters.
After thinking for a while, Lu Xiancheng said to the old man: "Otherwise, you can send the chickens to my house." Along this road, there is a large courtyard walled around it."
"You said that the newly built horse breeding field" As soon as Lu Xiancheng said it, he knew the place and hurriedly said.
Lu Xiancheng nodded immediately after hearing this: "Yes, yes!" That's it, are you going to send 200 chickens there? ”。
"Then you have to pay three cents a piece," the chicken seller immediately raised the price.
Lu Xiancheng didn't want to dwell on the matter of a few yuan anymore, so he nodded directly and agreed.
With this, Lu Xiancheng got back into the car, and the four of them continued to walk towards the racecourse.
When he arrived at the door, Lu Xiancheng called open the door. Drove the car into the yard.
"Brother Cheng!" The one who opened the door to Lu Xiancheng was the little soldier introduced by Lu Yao, of course, who has now retired from the army. The big name is Yan Shanhu, who is nineteen years old this year, and the other two are named Zhang Yushan and Li Qiangui, both nineteen years old, one month older than Lu Xiancheng, but because Lu Xiancheng is the boss. The three of them all refer to Lu Xiancheng as Brother Cheng.
In addition to these three young soldiers who have just been discharged from the army, there are also five intern students of Agricultural University, and none of them are all junior college students.
Originally, Lao Lu was also ready to raise the requirements, after all, Lu Xiancheng was also ready to introduce the 'horse breeding technology' of developed countries, and nine out of ten of these people could not speak Chinese. Communicate in English. Who knew that after recruiting several undergraduates, people came to take a look at the row of simple houses here, and there were a few dilapidated bungalows, and none of them were willing to stay, Lu Xiancheng could only lower the standard and pick a few desirable among the college students.
Driving to the empty space in the courtyard, Lu Xiancheng stopped the car.
"Everything has just begun, that is, you can ride a horse, don't dislike it too much, just wait for a while" Lu Xiancheng got out of the car and said to the two girls.
Now the racecourse has a bit of a look, although the simple houses are still there, but in the east side of the partition, there are already construction workers building the house, and the walls of the house are almost half high. The sandy training ground that can be seen now has been put out, several steel frames have been erected, and some railings have been put in place. The whole horse farm can be said to have roughly looked up.
"This horse farm has just been built," said Mei Qinrui.
Lu Xiancheng replied: "Well, it's been a month and a half, according to the current progress, it should be preliminarily completed by the end of June and the beginning of July!" ”。
Lu Xiancheng didn't plan to make a profit with this thing, mainly to train talents for the ranch in his hometown, not only horse breeders, veterinarians, horse trainers and the like. Of course, it's also important to let yourself go horseback riding with your friends when you're fine.
"Let's go, let's go see the horses!" Lu Xiancheng raised his hand to a group of people, and took the lead towards the temporary stable not far away.
It's nice to say it's a temporary stable, but to put it bluntly, it's two covered sheds, and then there is a horizontal wooden pole on one side, and horses are tied to it.
There are two such sheds, which are about a hundred meters away, one of which is tied to Arabia, and the other is naturally a quartma.
Old Lou has a preference for the size of the horses, that is, they should be tall, so the height of the horses in the stable is higher than the average level of the horse breed, each horse looks tall and mighty in the stable, and the coat color of each horse looks like waxed, shiny.
The care of horses is not what Lu Xiancheng is good at. Now managing the horse farm is Wei Yongliang, who Lu Xiancheng borrowed from Keisuke Kishida for 'temporary use'.
For Wei Yongliang, Lu Xiancheng is ready to learn from Liu Bei to borrow Jingzhou, and he is not ready to pay it back. Waiting for the Japanese ranch to be bought, let Wei Yongliang be the general manager of his Japanese ranch.
Although this person is not as good at things as Wei Yongping, and he doesn't talk much, he doesn't say anything about taking care of the horses.
Under his leadership and strict requirements, a group of people took care of these sycophants very well. As soon as Lao Lu saw the horses in the pasture, he thought of a slogan for chocolate in the future: Smooth as silk!
There is no such thing as the current Shicheng Racecourse, which makes you feel dirty when you look at a horse.
Ye Yihong and Zhu Zihua who met this time, after Zhang Qiang came to see it once, he threw his saddle here, and when he was interested, he decided to go to Lu Xiancheng to ride a horse.
Seeing Mei Qinrui and Zhang Ru looking at the horses like two curious babies, Lu Xiancheng turned his head to Yan Shanhu and asked, "What about Manager Wei?" ”。
"He went to watch the workers who built the stables," Yan said.
"Oh!" Lu Xiancheng didn't ask any more questions after hearing this, and remembered that he had someone give the chicks, so he took out a hundred yuan from his pocket and asked Yan Shanhu, the kid, to go to the door and wait for the old man to come and deliver the chicks.
Walking back to Mei Qinrui's side, Lu Xiancheng said, "Except for those two horses that can't be ridden." You can pick and choose the rest! ”。
Zhang Ru watched Lu Xiancheng's fingers slide over a big white horse and a golden horse in the stable, and immediately said, "The two best-looking horses can't be ridden!" ”。
Lu Xiancheng immediately said: "It's not that I'm willing not to let you ride, but these two are stallions, let alone you, and no one in the entire horse farm can ride them."
The breeder has never been castrated and has a very short temper, unless he is allowed to suffer from a knife, Lao Lu will not ride it. Because it's too dangerous to ride such a horse.
"Then you can help us choose" Mei Qinrui felt that the remaining horses were all beautiful, and all the horses were to their liking. It's a bit of a picky look.
Lu Xiancheng listened and said: "That's it, let's pick a horse first, let you practice, and then each person will ride a horse when you have a foundation, what do you think?" ”。
Now that the two beauties are inexperienced, Tang Shengsong has only come once. After studying for less than an afternoon, the level was still at the level of someone pulling the side reins around the circle, and the teaching people couldn't be counted on at all, and the only thing that could be counted on was Wei Yongliang, who went to see the construction of the stables again. As for everyone else, there are things right now. Only Lao Lu can only teach alone, and he can only come like this.
Although Lao Lu's level is just like that, fortunately, the horses Lao Lu picked this time are all very docile except for stallions, mares of more than five years.
"We're as good as we please," Mei Qinrui said.
Lu Xiancheng nodded and said, "Okay!" ”。
After saying that, he brought out one of the most docile jujube red horses in the stable.
This jujube red horse has the standard body shape of an Arabian horse, with a wedge-shaped head, and there are obvious depressions in the beam from the side, and the black tail of the tail is raised high, and when it is pulled out, the four hooves step on the ground as if stepping on the dance steps, and the jujube fur is under the afternoon sun, with the pulling of the muscles on the body at every step, the light seems to flow up on the skin, accompanied by a light and elastic pace, and the whole horse body exudes an inexplicable beauty.
Mei Qinrui and Zhang Ru were directly stunned, they probably never thought that a horse could be so beautiful.
Leading the horse, Lu Xiancheng explained the essentials of leading the horse to the two beginner girls, and there were some things to pay attention to, and then let them try it one by one.
led the horse to the door of a simple room, Lu Xiancheng bolted the horse to the pillar at the door, and prepared to take the two girls to see the saddle, of course, Tang Shengsong was directly ignored by Lao Lu.
As soon as they opened the door, the two girls suddenly felt that their eyes could not see a little, and there were more than a dozen wooden shelves in the whole room, each of which had a pair of saddles, and many horse harnesses hung on the walls around it.
The saddles chosen by Lu Xiancheng here are all American-style western saddles, which are the kind with pile heads, seven or eight of which are ordinary saddles, and four saddles are very gorgeously decorated, and the saddle people are all decorated with silver ornaments, in addition to carvings, like a work of art more than a saddle.
"I'm going to use that!" Zhang Ru heard Lu Xiancheng say that he would let the two of them pick a saddle, and directly pointed to a snow-white luxury saddle on a saddle frame and said first.
"No problem!" Lu Xiancheng smiled and motioned to Tang Shengsong to carry the saddle, while he went to get the matching bridles, reins, side reins and sweat pads, plus a triangle belt that he didn't usually wear. If you pick another Lu Xiancheng, you will also say that this white saddle is a gift from the American ranch manager, yes, it is the manager of the Pglinton (American) Ranch Company, that is, Lao Lu's American subordinates.
From this point on, Lao Lu believes that Lao Mei still knows how to give gifts, and it is obvious that such a pair of saddles is very popular with Lu Xiancheng, the 'boss'.
When Lu Xiancheng put on all the harnesses, a horse in full costume appeared in front of everyone.
The wide triangular belt passed through the horse's breast to become a thin band, and on it was adorned with twelve silver tassels, and on the chest was a silver lion head, and on the bridle belly strap was a silver clover clasp every palm away. The whole horse was dressed like a knight's war horse who was about to be canonized by the king in the Middle Ages, the tassels on the harness shook gently, and the mane on the horse's neck flew, which directly blinded everyone's kryptonite eyes.
In front of the beauty, Lu Xiancheng unconsciously set up a scene! It's a very shiny field! (To be continued.) )
