Over the years, Wuyang has been accustomed to other people's words and plans, and he is very uncomfortable with King Ma selling Guanzi, but after all, it is the first time to deal with him, and he is not his subordinates, or even a person in the officialdom, so he must not be careful. "King Ma, I'm really not a person who understands horses, don't worry if it's wrong."

On the roadside and hillside outside the window, there are a lot of trees, poplar trees, sand willow are the majority, occasionally poplar trees, pine trees, the grass on the hillside and under the trees has emerged from the tender tips, from a distance, it is already green, some flat land, there are large areas of barley, wheat, rape, rape in the south has bloomed at this time, but there are still not high stems growing here, and it may take more than a month to leave the flowers.

After half an hour of driving, you can see the house. On the side of the road is a spacious floor, followed by a large yard for each house. He was brought into his yard, where all kinds of flowers and vegetables were grown. The house is a Uyghur style building, but it is more spacious than what Wuyang has seen before.

"Secretary Li, please be seated. What kind of tea to drink? ”

Wuyang said, "Whatever." Just anxious to see your horse. ”

Mahmuti smiled, "Okay, that's what I like to hear." We drank a bowl of milk tea and soon we could go to see the horses. ”

Several people went from the side gate to the backyard, a yard dozens of acres in size, flanked by a long row of stables, cattle pens and sheepfolds. The cattle pen and sheepfold were empty, and there were seven horses in the stable. "Secretary Li, can you tell the breed of these horses?"

Wuyang looked carefully, pointed to a white horse and said, "This should be a Russian speed-walking horse, with a small head and an elegant and slender body; These two should be sweaty BMWs. These two are supposed to be good ploughing horses. Thoroughbreds for sure. A thoroughbred plough horse is too valuable, and it is said that the same weight of gold cannot be exchanged for a thoroughbred; Whether these two horses are Arabian horses or not, I can't say for sure. ”

Ma Hemuti smiled and said: "Secretary Li, what you said is right, it seems that you really understand horses." I have more than 200 horses at home, and the Russian speedwalking horse is this one, which is 22 years old. ”

Wuyang said: "That's an old horse." Is it equivalent to a person's 7 or 80 years old who can still participate in the competition? ”

"I can't play. Whenever there's an event, just let it perform. I only have a few Arabian horses at home, and there are more thoroughbred plowblood horses and sweat horses. ”

"Are these all bred in your own home?"

"Yes. At the beginning, I bought a thoroughbred horse from Liliang and a sweat horse from Tajikistan, both of which had only one male and three females, and when the foal grew up, I went back to some stallions, and it was bred for more than 30 years, and there were nearly 100 horses of both kinds. ”

Wuyang asked, "Didn't you sell some?" ”

Ma Hemuti smiled: "If you don't sell it." There should be more than 300 horses of each. Haiqing, Xianing, Inner Mongolia and other places of ploughing horses, northwest sweat and blood horses. It basically all originated from me. ”

"King of Horses, the same weight of gold can't be exchanged for thoroughbreds, you have sold so many horses, you must be on the rich side."

Ma Hemuti said with a smile: "That's just a description of people, the real thoroughbred horses, sweat and blood horses, are only hundreds of thousands." Generally, weaned foals sell for 4 or 500,000 yuan, and 3-year-olds can already see that they are good, and the most expensive is only 800,000 yuan. The average horse is 600,000, and 400 horses are 240 million, which is not a lot, compared with the income from selling cattle and sheep at home, it is just a hobby. ”

"Do you have more sheep and cows?"

"It's not mine anymore, my son, grandson, son-in-law have divided the cattle and sheep, but the horse is mine. I got the money from selling the horses, and I had to share it with them. ”

"Didn't you create a lot of competitors for yourself?"

"That's what horse breeding and horse racing taste like. If it's just that I have a good horse and others don't, then I'm a standout, and it's not interesting to win. Everyone has a good horse, it depends on how you raise, how you train, how you ride, so there is still suspense, everyone still has momentum in the competition, and the audience also has something to watch. Otherwise, like Chinese football, there is always a loss without any suspense, so what is the point of comparison? ”

Wuyang smiled: "You still know football? ”

"Our parents all love football, in addition to riding horses in our lives, the most we do is to play football, our sons and grandchildren also like football, many people have been selected for the provincial team, and some of the best football skills have gone to foreign football clubs to play."

"Why don't you play for a team at home?"

Mahmuti said: "The domestic team doesn't like our people, and our people also think that the atmosphere of the domestic team is not good, the football skills cannot be improved, there is no future, and the salary is too low and wastes a skill." ”

Wuyang didn't know if what the old man said was true or not, they were originally Caucasians, as long as their football skills were good, they could use whatever name they wanted, they could mix in foreign teams, besides, there was no need for the old man to lie to himself, so he didn't bother to dwell on this issue, "King Horse, these horses are your best horses, right?" Can I ride? ”

"I prepared the riders and asked them to perform for the guests. I went in and called them. ”

The king of horses went in for a while, and Wuyang thought that a few men were going to come out, but all of them came out, all of them were girls, wearing bright national costumes, holding horse whips, blankets, saddles and other items in their hands, smiling at the guests, and running away. Wuyang saw that they didn't have a lot of braids, and they felt different from those in movies and TV. As for the beautiful Cheng Dù, there is a Hot Lisa at home, who is more beautiful than them.

Ma Hemuti sent them a telescope, followed by a middle-aged woman with a tea tray, but on it was mineral water, probably often entertaining guests in this way.

"Distinguished guests, we will first enjoy the performance of the Russian Horse Race, and then please enjoy the horse race. After the race, everyone is invited to eat here. ”

Governor Tan said: "King Ma, you didn't invite guests to participate in horse races here before, why don't you do it today?" ”

Ma Hemuti said: "Governor Tan, today you are all Han Chinese, and you are southerners, you must be disrespectful to ride and shoot, forget it." ”

Governor Tan smiled: "Are you afraid that we will win your granddaughter?" ”

King Ma smiled and said, "Governor Tan." I'm so scared. I'm afraid the guest won't be able to pay the bet. If we lose, we are also happy for nothing. ”

Zhang Lichen said: "King Ma." What are the stakes? ”

"These four are my granddaughters, none of them are married, and any of you who is not married can choose who will race the horse at will, and let the guests choose first," said Mahmuti. If the guest wins, the granddaughter can take it with him, and there is a rich dowry; The guest lost. Stay and be a son-in-law. I want to ask, which of you is not married? Who will stay? ”

Governor Tan said: "King Ma, let's discuss, can we change the rules?" ”

"How?"

Wuyang said: "King Ma, shall we bet on horses and money instead?" ”

He likes ploughing horses and sweaty horses in his heart, and he doesn't know if the king of horses will agree to sell them, if he can win, of course it will be better. Of course, there is another reason, the matter was provoked by Governor Tan. With his age and weight, he was definitely going to lose. Among the four people, only he can get out.

"Secretary Li, if you propose to bet on horses, you are betting on horses. Is it good or not, we bet on 1 male, 2 female, 3 3-year-old plough horses, sweat and blood BMW, you win, take 6 horses away, we can also help you send home, if you lose, pay me 4.8 million, you eat and leave. ”

Wuyang hesitated. He can't let Governor Tan know that he has money.

Zhang Lichen immediately said: "Secretary Li, you agreed." In case I lose, I will pay the money, and the 5 million will be transferred immediately. ”

"Okay, King Ma, I promised."

"Okay, Secretary Li, I see that you are also a person who understands and loves horses, and if you dare to bet such a big bet, you must have real skills, I agreed. Let's follow the old rules and perform the Russian Swift Horse first. ”

At this time, a girl turned on her horse and performed in the venue. The speed horse is not like an ordinary horse, the left side of the front legs and the right side of the back legs, but the front and rear legs of both sides at the same time, so that the pace is very melodious and the body is also very stable. The horses are walking slowly, fast, or standing still, and they are simply beautiful. After 20 minutes of performance, several people couldn't help but applaud.

Pull out the two sweaty BMWs, Wuyang went to choose, and after a look, they should be about the same. King Ma's granddaughter also came out and waited for Wuyang to choose first. Wuyang chose a horse at random, put on a blanket, and put it on the saddle. When waiting for the girl to put on the saddle, the true qi in the palm of her hand is fed into the horse's body. I hadn't done anything to input true qi through objects before, and I was worried that I couldn't use my feet to input true qi after wearing leather shoes, so I asked, "King Ma, can I take off my shoes?" ”

King Ma said: "Secretary Li, the stirrup is iron, as long as your feet can stand it, there is no problem." ”

led the horse outside, and the agreed distance was 10 kilometers, so the king of horses sent someone to drive to a place of 5 kilometers to be a referee.

The girl didn't get on the horse first, and said, "Secretary Li, please." ”

Wuyang smiled and said, "Lady first, girl please." ”

The girl smiled, "Then you're welcome." With that, he flew on his horse. Wuyang looked at the girl, who was more than 170 centimeters tall, and her weight might only be about 40 kilograms.

Wuyang followed and got on the horse, and then kicked off his leather shoes, "King Ma, get ready." ”

The King of Horses raised his right hand, "Ready, begin." ”

The two horses flew out like arrows, and it was estimated that when they ran three thousand meters, the girl was already ahead of a horse, and Wuyang hurriedly used his palm to input true qi, and the horse immediately increased its speed. But the girl is this every day, but it is not given in vain, when it comes to the turning point, the afternoon sun is not careful, the bend is not good, and the distance is widened, at least 3 horse bodies.

Look at it can't work, I have to use a trick, and the toes also began to input true qi, and it is very powerful, the horse accelerates greatly, and it looks close, and then it goes hand in hand, and immediately surpasses it. By the end of the race, Kankan was one horse ahead. Instead of dismounting, he let the horse jog, turned a corner, and sideways picked up a shoe. Xiao Ya saw him picking up shoes, and immediately picked up the other one and handed it to him. Putting on his shoes and jumping off the horse, the girl came and hugged him. "Big brother, I'm Izgul, I'm yours."

Wuyang also whispered: "I didn't make a bet with your grandfather. ”

Izgul said, "I've made a bet on myself, can't I?" ”

"No, I can't. Listen to what your grandpa has to say. ”

After letting go, Mahmuti said, "Secretary Li." The 6 horses are yours. However, the horses are still grazing in the pastures. Can't give it to you for the time being. Let's make an appointment. ”

Wuyang smiled and said: "King Ma, I do like ploughing good horses and sweaty horses, but this bet is canceled, you sell me 6 horses." I'll go home in a few days, and let this boss Zhang pay to carry the horse away when the time comes. ”

Ma Hemuti said: "Then how to do it, we have said it, and we can't change it at will." Secretary Li, did Izgul tell you something? ”

Izgul said, "Grandpa. I told him to congratulate him on winning the horse and that if he didn't have anyone who could keep a horse, I could go and help him. ”

"It's also a good idea. You're only 16 years old, who really won you away one day, grandpa is still reluctant. Secretary Li, this matter is settled. Let's go back to dinner. ”

Wuyang said: "King Ma, if you collect money, I will ask for a horse, and if you don't collect money, we will leave, as if this incident had not happened." ”

"No, I can't. If you want to take it, pay the money and don't sell it. ”

Wuyang said, "King Ma." I got some wild horses from the Mongolian steppe last year, can I exchange them with you? ”

Ma Hemuti smiled: "This is a good idea, you send one male and five females and six wild horses and take these six horses away." ”

"No, my wild horses are a herd."

"So there's only one stallion? Then there is no way. However, even if you have a foal, the population will be degraded and you will have to find a new stallion. ”

"I don't understand this, so I'll have to figure out a way later."

As soon as I entered the house, someone brought water to wash my hands, and soon pilaf came up again. Wuyang saw that the rice was yellow, and there was lamb with bones in it, as well as carrots and other condiments. At this time, Izgul also came in and sat down next to Wuyang, "Brother Li, there are spoons here, you are not used to using spoons." ”

Governor Tan and Zhang Lichen both ate pilaf, Wuyang and Xiaoya didn't do anything, and only ate after getting the spoon.

"Brother Li, is it delicious?"

"It's delicious. The rice is chewy, the mutton is fragrant, and the heat is very good. ”

"You just ate it, and you probably don't dare to eat it because it's too greasy. No way, that's the condition. ”

Governor Tan said: "There are still some people who can't afford this kind of rice." That is to say, if you have a large number of people in your family and often have guests, you can often slaughter sheep. ”

Izgul said: "Yes, in ordinary people, two or three people eat, where are they willing to slaughter sheep." Brother Li, do you also eat mutton in your hometown? ”

"Eat too. Beef and mutton are sold, but they are too expensive, and most people rarely buy them, mainly because of large meat. But now I don't dare to eat the big meat, feed some lean meat or something, and there are sick pigs and dead pork on sale. ”

"What if you don't eat big meat?"

"Find a way to buy beef and mutton. It's just a little more expensive. ”

"Can Brother Li's family afford beef and mutton?"

Wuyang didn't know what she meant by asking, so he said: "I rarely buy it, sometimes I buy a little, and it is also for the child to eat, and the child wants to grow up." It's not that I can't afford it, but the salary is still quite a lot, and the main thing is that I have to keep it to buy a house. ”

"Then Brother Li's economy is not well-off, if he buys a horse, how can he pay back? I bought it back, but you don't have pasture there, and feed is a big expense. ”

Xiaoya said: "He was just impulsive just now. ”

Izgul smiled and didn't say a word, finished eating the rice in the bowl, wiped his hands and went over to talk to Xiaoya.

Governor Tan told Ma Hemuti about planting grapes in the surrounding area, "King Ma, the state is going to plant grapes in this area, and the land must be reclaimed. You deserve to support me. ”

Mahmuti said: "This place was originally reclaimed at the beginning of liberation, but it was later abandoned. Now the state wants to use it, it is originally the state, of course I support it. However, I have so many livestock to come in and out, and so many guests to buy horses, that I have to leave some space. ”

"Look at whether it's good or not, around your yard, within 1,000 meters, we won't move, and we will leave you a 300-meter passage. How long the passage needs to be left is up to you, and it is up to the convenience of people and livestock to enter and exit. ”

"Yes, when the time comes, you can just set it aside."

Zhang Lichen said: "King Ma, this passage left for you, we want to pour concrete on it, so that it can take off and land large transport planes in the future." ”

Mahmuti said: "What is the transport plane doing here? ”

Zhang Lichen said: "Sometimes you may have to transport some beef, mutton, wine or something, but it is convenient to transport by plane. ”

"No, it's coming, isn't it an airport? How do my horses run, and how do my cattle and sheep get in and out? You'd better find another place. ”

Wuyang felt that this was indeed the case, so he didn't want to dwell on it anymore, "King Ma, forget it if it doesn't work, we really need it in the future, let's find another way." Okay, we're full, we've paid for the food, and we're gone. Thank you. ”

Xiao Ya, who has been whispering to Izgul, said: "It's all up to Izgul to treat, let's go." ”

A few people walked to the car, and Mahmut and Izgul sent them into the car, and they walked far away, and the grandfather and grandson were still waving.

Or the three of them have a car, Zhang Lichen said: "Boss, it's a pity, you don't want to win a horse, what a good horse." ”

Wuyang said: "I bought a horse, that is, just for fun, it can't produce economic benefits, and I waste those good horses." Without these, my Mustang at home can also be played. ”

Xiaoya said: "The horse will be given to us, you should consider where to raise it." ”

Wuyang said, "What did you say to that girl?" ”

"You don't care what we say, they won't go back anyway. Wuyang, how do you see that Izgul looking? ”

Wuyang said: "The facial features are good, and the figure is tall enough, but the skin is too bad." ”

Zhang Lichen said: "Boss, the girls on their side are all like this, and when they mature, they will be carved in powder one by one." After giving birth, I either gained weight, or my skin was dry again, unlike us southern women, who only get old after the age of 40. ”

Xiaoya said: "You southerners have a lot of moisture in their skin, so they look very watery. ”

Wuyang said: "You have lived in the south all these years, and you have become smart." ”

Xiaoya smiled and said, "It's still watery, it's all an old woman." ”

Zhang Lichen said: "The boss lady is still a little girl, many people ask me, is the boss bringing, is it the original wife." ”

Xiaoya said: "That's because their eyes are not good, besides, how can you bring Mrs. Ru on this occasion." ”

"Some have been replaced."

"Mr. Zhang, have you changed?"

Zhang Lichen smiled and said, "I won't change." My wife is the most virtuous, for me to do filial piety to my parents, raise children, work hard for more than ten years, when I am old, and replace, not only her, but I can't figure it out. ”

Xiaoya said: "You are only in your 40s, so you have been running outside all the year round, and you have not done anything to be sorry for your wife?" ”

"I have been through wine and meat, and the Buddha has left it in his heart."

"I said that you men, why do you all say that your wives are good, and you are all making some affairs outside?"

Zhang Lichen said: "This is the expression of man's animal attributes. Boss, what's the next itinerary? ”

"Lichen, let's leave here today, I want to go to Xia Ning for a run, and if I still have time, I will go to other provinces and regions."

Zhang Lichen said: "Boss, Xia Ning, you don't have to go, everything there has been arranged." ”

"No, I still have to go and see, I've already made an appointment with their secretary and chairman, and I can't miss the appointment. What projects did you work on there? (To be continued......)
