Chapter 173: Science and Technology Flow (11)

Although Huang Xuan has never been a good student, he has a natural sensitivity to wealth. So when he was exiled from P112 by Lorraine for the first time, he would first think of buying the previous edition of "The Mountains and Rivers of the Country Are Red", so in the family's small stove, his results were never wrong.

This is also the reason why Huang Jindi will value him, the eldest son is just an identity, and physics and mathematics grades cannot guarantee the status of the family, only the sensitivity to business or politics is the quality that a family heir should have.

Therefore, as long as Lorraine said a little bit of information, Huang Xuan could think of the Cleveland consortium.

This is a consortium that made its fortune on coal and iron resources, and in the late 50s was their heyday, and in the 60s it was the sixth largest consortium in the United States, but today, their main industries are concentrated in the steel and rubber industries, and due to geographical restrictions, the development is slow.

Like the California consortium, the Cleveland consortium has weak financial capital, and both consortiums rely on the financial institutions of the Eastern consortium, especially the Morgan consortium, to raise funds, or why both large consortia gradually declined after the 70s.

Huang Xuan lit the energy screen with his hand and asked Lorraine: "Check Morgan Stanley's account and see how much money they lent to the Cleveland consortium." ”

As he spoke, Bob and the others had already left in a menacing manner, saying that it was momentum, but in fact, it was better to say that it was fear, 10 million US dollars was not a small amount of money in Morgan Stanley, not to mention that it was just a small character in the Cleveland family, just like Huang Xuan said, to make up enough money, they needed the pocket money of several people.

Galadia said with some unease: "Why bet so much with them." ”

Huang Xuan twisted his head and said, "You don't believe I can win them?" ”

Galadia wrinkled her nose and said with a light smile: "I believe you, why don't I also bet half of the bet?" ”

"No, you don't." Huang Xuan scratched the red rabbit and said, "You have to fight for me in a while." ”

Galadia tidied up her shoulders and stopped talking, just smiled slightly and watched Huang Xuan tease Chitu.

The Red Rabbit snorted, Huang Xuan smiled and scratched his back, and said to Dian Wei: "You will ride the Red Rabbit in a while, and we will compete with them." ”

"Okay." Dian Wei nodded solemnly and said, "What about the weapon?" ”

Huang Xuan sweated and said, "It's only faster than a horse, and you can't beat people." See who runs the fastest. ”

"Is it a cow run to play with cow babies?"

Huang Xuan peeked at Jialadia, very glad that she couldn't understand English, and whispered to herself: "That's right, as soon as the fence in front of the horse is opened, you run, stop and stop." ”

He thought it was easier to understand.

Dian Wei nodded understandingly, patted Huang Xuan on the shoulder, and said, "When I was a child, I won it, and people from other villages didn't dare to come." ”

"So powerful?" Huang Xuan's face was admired.

"Well, whoever wins me, I will fight." Dian Wei casually moved his thighs like ordinary people's waists.

……

After a little preparation, Huang Xuan and others led the red rabbit out of the stable, in a group of short thoroughbred horses, the red rabbit can be described as a group of rabbits, especially it is red, strong and powerful, very eye-catching.

Many noble ladies who don't know much about horse racing have looked at this side, and Galadia walked on the right side of Huang Xuan, holding a small bag of "milk" and white "color" in one hand and said with a smile: "Horse racing is the most interesting to watch on the spot, if you watch the broadcast, there will be no taste." ”

"Why?" Huang Xuan actually doesn't know much about horse racing, even if the Huang family is very rich, but China's folk horse racing is only more than 10 years old, and few people in the family are keen on it, except for a period of time when they were young, they rarely come into contact with it.

"People say that horse racing is about brewing for half a day and then venting in a few minutes." When Galadia said this, her face was a little blushing, and with the lip line, Huang Xuan had the urge to take a bite.

Aiken and the others were talking in a whisper hundreds of meters away, but their eyes were on Galadia, and when they saw her talking happily with Huang Xuan, their faces couldn't help but become more and more gloomy.

Galadia seemed to be accustomed to people's gaze, and said to Huang Xuan: "In the past two years, there have been many people watching horse races live, but there are far fewer TV broadcasts, unless it is used for gambling or when records are about to be broken. Speaking of this, she said in a rather regretful tone: "When I used to go to England, I attended the Royal Ascot Horse Racing Festival, and every third day, the ladies would bring beautiful hats, and I had one at that time. It was a lively scene as everyone stood together and guessed which horse would win. As she spoke, she still looked longing.

Huang Xuan can resemble what it was: a group of people gathered around to watch a large herd of horses, and then talked about the brewing emotions, and finally the horses ran across the line in one minute, and the race was over.

If TV broadcasts want to make money, no one will broadcast horse racing.

Seeing that Dian Wei had already led the horse to the starting line, Huang Xuan patted Galadia's hand comfortingly, and said, "It's good now, everyone is looking forward to the next race." ”

"That's because there's a bet." Galadia snorted coquettishly and deliberately didn't look at Huang Xuan.

Clemenos and Ellison came over with cocktails, and the former smiled from a distance, "Hi, Huang Xuan, I heard that you made a bet on your elephant." ”

"Oh, uncle." Galadia looked swaying and said, "Don't say that. ”

"It's just a matter of stating a fact." Klimeinos' brow furrowed with a smile on it, with deep streaks on it.

Ellison looked at Huang Xuan with miserable eyes and said, "Are you really going to use that big guy for the flat race?" Speaking of which, it was a good hunting horse, but it wouldn't be a good racehorse. ”

"Why?"

"It's so heavy that gravity will hold on to it until the other horses overtake it." Ellison made a figurative analogy, and then added, "Even so, I pressed it for $100,000, oh, do you know the look on my face when I sign it?" ”

As a horse club to connect friendships, the host here certainly doesn't shout into the microphone like some horse farms: "Two gentlemen are going to bet on horses." ”

More often than not, they will tell everyone present separately that while the result is the same, the effect is very different – which helps to increase friendship rather than the other way around.

Huang Xuan knew that Ellison's $100,000 was his friendship with him, but it was already very good compared to betting on Bob's "Ohio Scream".

"What is the maximum bet I can place here?" Huang Xuan took two cocktails from the waiter and handed them to Galadia, a cocktail with plenty of sweat, soft drinks, mineral water, and liqueurs, perfect for cultivating the atmosphere.

Galadia said "thanks" and said, "About $1 million." ”

The so-called maximum bet, of course, is not a restriction of the organizers, but a conventional rule, after all, this is not a casino, and most of the bets are for fun, and more than $1 million, even for a 20 billion billionaire like Ellison, is not playing.

"Waiter." Huang Xuan called out in English and said, "I want to press 1 million US dollars, in the red 'color' horse." ”

"Pink Bunny? OK, $1 million. ”

"Pink Rabbit?" Huang Xuan was very surprised.

"Yes." The waiter said naturally: "It should be the name given by his master, it is the tall half-breed horses." ”

Huang Xuan looked at Galadia, who shrugged cutely, the small bag was "swinging" in his hand, and his expression was very innocent.

It wasn't until the last one of the game that Bob came over with a relaxed face, took a piece of paper from the servant next to him, and handed it to Huang Xuandao: "A certificate confirming the bet." ”

"Oh, it looks regular." Huang Xuan signed on it, and the staff at Carlton Racecourse on the side took it and said, "Mr. Huang, please make your advance payment to this account." ”

Huang Xuan pouted, he came out this time as a truant, and he didn't have an assistant to take him, so he had to take out his mobile phone, press the number randomly, and said, "Lorraine, send money into this account." He turned around and read it.

The racecourse quickly confirmed the remittance, and Bob glanced at Huang Xuan in disappointment, and said, "Ohio's screaming jockey is Burgess, who has won two championship titles, who is your jockey?" ”

"That's him." Huang Xuan used his chin to nod at Dian Wei, who was arranging the saddle next to Chitu, who had just learned how to use it.

Ellison almost squirted out a mouthful of wine, but he forcibly swallowed it, and said in surprise, "If you said it earlier, I wouldn't have pressed the bet on you." ”

All jockeys require a lighter weight, which has to do with the smaller weight of the thoroughbred itself, and putting Dian Wei with other jockeys is very reminiscent of giants and gnomes, or rather, it is better to let Dian Wei ride a thoroughbred than to let him carry a thoroughbred on his back faster. Only a heavy horse like Chitu can carry him away.

Bob grimaced in an American way and said to Galadia, "Are you raising money for our round-the-world trip?" Oh, $10 million. ”

Galadia didn't say anything, and looked at the direction of the track as usual, as if she had expected such a situation for a long time. She chuckled and said to the waiter, "I'll also press $1 million." ”

"Oh no." Bob spread his hands and said, "It's right for men to ask women, you don't need to pay for our future accounts." ”

"Let's wait until you win." Huang Xuan shook Bob's hand away and said, "Go back to Ohio, you can continue to make hay for my horse to eat." "Ohio is famous for hay production.

"Oh, there's going to be a chance." Bob felt Huang Xuan's strength, and did not try to measure himself, but shook his hand and walked back.
