Chapter 9: The County Jockey Club (3)
Those who were close even felt a strong wind blowing when the horses ran past, and the speed of this horse was not below that of the red horse, and the horses sent by the other two were inferior to those of the first race, so the gap widened even wider than in the first race.
In the previous many races, the horses of the merchants on both sides had their own advantages and disadvantages, and many even fought five games to determine the winners, and the level was also comparable, but like these two games, the horses of the Cao family were won by an overwhelming margin, which made people impressed, of course, some people wondered if the opponent's horses were too inferior.
However, as the two horses continued to play, each time they were completely superior to their opponents, no matter how strong the opponents were in the previous races, but there was a clear gap between them and the two horses.
Originally, according to the pre-estimate, this horse race was going to last until the afternoon, but because the two horses of the Cao family were so strong, the number of races was reduced by many times, and the race ended before noon.
Both officials and businessmen were embarrassed by the Cao family's victory, and were even more curious about the origin of these two horses.
Jiang Wenshan even stood up and walked to the venue in person, followed by all the officials.
Jiang Wenshan stretched out his hand and stroked the two horses, and said with a curious expression: "Boss Cao, what is the origin of your two horses, how can they run so fast and have such good endurance?"
Cao Yaode respectfully arched his hand and said: "Lord Hui, this red horse is a rare mountain horse in western China, and the environment of its origin has mountains, rivers and grasslands, so it combines the endurance of mountain horses and the speed of grassland horses, and the other is a mixture of northern horses and southern horses, and it also has the characteristics of two horses." ”
Jiang Wenshan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Boss Cao actually knows horses so well, these two horses don't look obvious from ordinary mountain horses and southern horses." ”
Cao Yaode smiled and said calmly: "These two horses were chosen by this Fang Gongzi for Xiaomin. ”
As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on Fang Ling, and more of them saw Song Ying'er behind him at a glance, and they suddenly felt a sense of amazement.
When Jiang Wenshan saw Song Ying'er, he was also slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect that there would be such a stunning woman in the world, but he was the identity of the county guard, so he quickly came back to his senses, glanced at Fang Ling up and down, and said in surprise: "Fang Gongzi is young, but this eyesight is superior." ”
Fang Ling said with a smile: "My lord has won the prize, the small family is in the north, and there is a horse farm at home, so I know a little about all kinds of horses." ”
Jiang Wenshan suddenly realized, and at the same time was very satisfied with Fang Ling's modest attitude, and said with a smile: "You know a little bit about it, but you are too modest, you can see through the origin of the horse at a glance, the bloodline of the horse, this is not a day or two of work, I am afraid that the horse master in the county government will not reach this level." ”
Speaking of this, he smiled at everyone and said, "The official has set up a luncheon in the mansion, and since the horse race is over early, then you should go to the hall with the official." ”
