Chapter 172: Science and Technology Flow (10)
Galadia wore a pale yellow "color" shawl, and wore a light gray "color" V-shirt, slightly covering her round shoulders, and her arms were slender and slender; A slightly voluptuous knitted skirt and high heels accentuate the waist, and a palm-wide horizontal striped belt attracts the eye with a golden section line.
Huang Xuan unconsciously rubbed his upper lip that had just grown fluffy "hair", and felt that the corner of his heart was alive again.
Klimeinos seemed to be very familiar with Decker, and came over to hug him, while Galadia looked at Huang Xuan with some uncertainty, a few months is enough for a teenager to grow 10 cm taller and mature from youth.
"Oh, welcome to America." Huang Xuan clapped his hands lightly, and then said in Greek: "Two months ago, we encountered a very bad thing, but fortunately it has passed now, are you okay?" ”
Galadia's face flushed, and she remembered the beautiful Chinese poem, and the ridiculous bottle of mineral water, and the silly boy carrying a pair of slippers in the messy lumber yard, and the classical girl covered her mouth with her hand and smiled: "Oh, good morning." ”
When she smiles, her eyes wander, and it inadvertently makes people feel that the sun is shining.
"Do you like horse racing?" Huang Xuan tried to find a common language, and in fact, he had not had a good chance to talk to the Greek girl in the past few meetings.
"Yes." Galadia's long eyelashes blinked, "Actually, I prefer tennis and cricket, but horse racing is also fun. ”
"I also love cricket." Ellison didn't know Greek, but the word cricket was also a foreign word to Greek, and he understood what the two were talking about in a flash, so he deliberately "interjected": "I think Mr. Huang will also like cricket." ”
Huang Xuan was a little annoyed that Ellison interrupted the one-on-one conversation, although he knew that it was just an unflattering humor, but he couldn't help but reply: "You're not jealous of our youth, right?" ”
"I'm just talking about it." Ellison wisely chose to retreat, and said with a cigar between his cigars, "Let's change places and let the young people have a good chat." ”
“OK。” Klimeinos and Huang Xuan are also familiar with each other, and they are about to leave with their hands on Ellison.
"Uncle." Galadia felt that her face was a little hot, glanced at Huang Xuan, and said in English: "Two friends of similar age are just chatting." ”
Decker smiled and pulled a cigar from Ellison's hand and said, "You all know Greek, and we won't, of course we're going to run away." ”
Huang Xuan was about to say more, when he suddenly heard a sound like a bangzi, and then looked behind him, a thin old man was holding a small hammer, and after two more knocks, he said loudly: "Welcome to the Oak Tree Race at Carlton Racecourse, the winner has 100,000 US dollars, hehe." He raised his hand as he spoke.
100,000 US dollars is not enough money for everyone to pull the horses from the racecourse, it can be seen that this is a social "sex" horse club, Huang Xuan noticed that there was a person dressed as a chief behind him, and Galadia said softly at this time: "That's Sheikh Ha Mohammed, the Sheikh of Dubai, and Dali Racecourse is his." ”
"I've heard of Dali Racecourse." Huang Xuan spread his hands and said, "How do you know that I don't know him?" ”
"I see." Galadia was a little girlish at this time, she was actually only two years older than Huang Xuan.
In just one sentence, Huang Xuan felt that the relationship between the two people had become closer, and he didn't care about the annoying gaze behind him, and said with a smile: "I admit that I am not very familiar with the racecourse, but I have two good horses." He paused for a moment, and did not continue on the question, but added: "I was in London last month, and I met your uncle, and I asked you at the time, I heard that you are in some trouble?" ”
"It's just something that annoys us." Galadia didn't seem to want to go on with the topic, frowning, "Where's your horse?" We have it. ”
"Okay." Huang Xuan took the lead and then waved his hand to Ellison and the others. The horses are all in the stable on the east side, Dian Wei prefers to be with Chitu, and Huang Xuan naturally does not force him to follow him.
Dian Wei was more like a horse owner than those professional grooms, he fed the red rabbit and the flying electricity with his own hands, and from a distance, he looked almost as big as the horse.
Galadia was obviously surprised by Dian Wei's burly figure, covering her mouth with her fair little hands, Huang Xuan thought with some jealousy: Just go back to Lorraine and have such a figure.
There was only one yellow man present, and Galadia naturally noticed the red rabbit and the flying lightning behind him. Modern thoroughbreds are on average between 1.5-1.7 meters tall, with racing horses being slightly taller, but not as tall as they are. Unlike thoroughbreds of Arab origin, the Red Rabbit is a military horse from Central Asia, a tall, heavy horse that is not only tall and long-legged, but also muscular, and does not resemble the slenderness of its stable counterparts at all.
Galadia glanced at Huang Xuan, her eyebrows curled slightly, and she smiled, "You want to use those two horses to compete?" Aren't they thoroughbreds? ”
"Of course not." Huang Xuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Asian famous horses, you will know their speed." ”
Galadia shook her head in disbelief and said, "That's completely different, a thoroughbred horse can easily run 60 kilometers per hour, the world record for 1000 meters of starting speed is 54 seconds, which is faster than an ordinary truck, even an Arabian horse can only win in a long-distance race." ”
Huang Xuan knew that horses with speeds below 25 kilometers per hour were horses, and most horses would speed less than 45 kilometers, but unlike Chitu, most of the horses used in early China came from Central Asia, that is, the so-called Western Regions in the Tang Dynasty, but the Chinese used horses to castrate, so these excellent horse breeds gradually became extinct, and eventually only the short Mongolian horses remained.
In fact, ancient Chinese horses were tall and strong, and it was common for them to be taller than people, and if you compare the remaining Don hippos in Russia, you can also find that the thoroughbred horses bred by the British are too short.
It's just that in terms of speed, especially in the sprint race, the thoroughbred horse does have an obvious advantage, but the red rabbit is not an ordinary horse, among the famous horses of the Three Kingdoms, the horse called the best shadow does not dare to face off with the red rabbit, 60 kilometers, just a piece of cake.
Although she was not optimistic about the results of the two horses, Galadia clearly liked the two tall fellows, and she asked Dian Wei in English, "Can I 'touch' them?" ”
"Of course." Huang Xuan hurriedly replied, and then said to Dian Wei: "She wants to 'touch' these two horses." ”
Dian Wei shook his head noncommittally, and turned away from the stable, it seeming that he had not yet learned to be equal between men and women.
Galadia smiled apologetically, stood on tiptoe to reach the red rabbit, gently stroked its "hair", and asked, "How tall is he?" How much does it weigh and what kind of breed does it weigh? ”
"I raised it at home." Huang Xuan told a little lie and said: "It is 1.85 meters tall at the shoulder, 2.3 meters tall in total, and weighs 650 kilograms. ”
Thoroughbred horses are only about 450 kilograms, if a big man like Lu Bu rides a thoroughbred horse, it is about the same as riding a big dog, if you bring an 81 kg knife and 120 kg hammer, then you don't have to go to the battlefield.
Galadia had never seen such a "man" horse, and she looked at the red-eyed red rabbit and praised, "It's so beautiful." ”
Huang Xuan, as the master, was also very honored, and was smiling, when an inappropriate voice sounded: "Although it is beautiful, I am afraid it is useless." ”
Of course, it was a young man, Huang Xuan naturally looked at the other party, but saw four or five white gentlemen in their 20s coming over.
"Do you know them?" Huang Xuan leaned closer and asked Jialadiya. This action obviously made the mood of the gentlemen on the other side permeate
"Well, on the far left is Aiken, an important member of the Mather family, on the right is Andrew, a stupid guy, a member of the Hannah family, and in the middle is Bob from the Humphrey family, both of whom control the Cleveland consortium." Galadia also whispered to Huang Xuan, which made the other party even more angry.
It can be seen that these white puppets are all guys with good family backgrounds, not only have followers, but also have bodyguards in the distance, but of course Huang Xuan will not be timid, he deliberately approached Galadia, his head almost touched his ears, and said, "What should I do with them?" ”
Huang Xuan and Galadia are the same size, in fact, due to age, Huang Xuan is slightly lower than this classical beauty, but because he deliberately dresses more maturely, it is not much different from a 20-year-old young man.
The provocative distance made the fat-headed and big-eared Andrew unable to hold it back, and he said in a very Cleveland accent: "Hi, boy, stay away from our beauty, you guy covered in horse manure." ”
Huang Xuan was wearing a knight's uniform, which obviously made the other party misunderstand that he was a little rider. In Marseille, the pampered owners will not be in the field.
"You're going to get in trouble." Galadia looked at Huang Xuan's somewhat impulsive appearance and said, "The Cleveland consortium is one of the top 10 conglomerates in the United States. ”
"Oh, that's pretty impressive." Huang Xuan said loudly: "But I heard that the Cleveland consortium has been in decline since 40 years ago, and it seems that one generation is not as good as the next." ”
“hi.” Aiken looked at Huang Xuan with some anger, and said with a smile on his face: "Do you know what kind of place this is?" ”
"Looks like we're talking too much nonsense." Huang Xuan saw that Dian Wei had already come over, called him, and said, "Do you want to fight?" ”
He casually pulled a posture, but Dian Wei's image was a little terrifying, not in appearance, but from his bones, the so-called "tiger across the stream" image of the evil man.
"We race horses." Bob looked at the bodyguards with headsets around the stable, and didn't think his side had an advantage, so he said, "You can buy two thoroughbred horses to fight our knights now, and bet a million dollars." Do you dare? ”
Jialadia gently pulled Huang Xuan again, Xiao Huang smiled at her, and then "exposed" his back molars at Bob, and said, "With a bet of 10 million US dollars, is your pocket money enough?" ”
