The auctioneer took advantage of the lively atmosphere of the scene and immediately decided to open on stage.

"Gentlemen, I am the auctioneer of this auction, and the first thing to auction is a pure black sweaty horse with four hooves and snow. ”

As the auctioneer's voice fell, a horse boy walked in with a dark cloud stepping on the snow.

"This sweaty horse is 1.54 meters tall at the shoulder, weighs 457 kilograms, and the starting price is 70,000 pounds, and each increase in price must not be less than 1,000 pounds."

As soon as the words fell, someone raised a sign.

The auctioneer was overjoyed, although he had determined that the possibility of these sweaty horses being auctioned was extremely small, but the starting price of 70,000 pounds was indeed higher than the normal price in the world, about 30%.

Now that the auction has just started, there are people bidding.

It shows that everyone still has a lot of confidence in the vision of the Triple Crown horse owner.

The auctioneer hurriedly pointed over there and shouted, "70,000, someone has already shouted 70,000." ”

Before he finished speaking, he pointed to another person and shouted, "This gentleman bid 70,000, will anyone bid again?" ”

In less than 3 minutes, the price of this sweaty horse has risen to 90,000.

At this price, the buyers present were not stupid, even Ge Bai and the others died down.

There are only two sellers left.

Chu looked forward, one was a desert tyrant, basically didn't care.

Although these people are not suddenly rich or rich, after all, oil prices have not skyrocketed.

But those who dig for oil, regardless of that era, come with money quickly.

As long as you like it, you really don't take money as money.

The other buyer was a woman in her 30s. Looking at the costumes, I couldn't see anything, but Chu Xiangqian could still see that the other party should be Chinese.

The auctioneer shouted seven or eight sentences repeatedly, neither annoying people nor making the seller feel that he was irresponsible, and then shouted, 'Deal'.

"Congratulations to Ms. 19, or this horse that is stepping on the snow."

Because it was the first horse, it was sold for 90,000, and everyone present, whether it was a buyer, or Chu Xiangqian and others, all applauded.

And the woman who bought this sweaty horse also got up and nodded to everyone in thanks.

Seeing this, Chu Xiangqian couldn't help frowning slightly, and secretly said in his heart, this woman is likely to be more than just buying a horse.

The next 9 sweaty horses are basically around 90,000, and the cheapest is a slippery sweaty horse.

And the most expensive is a red sweat horse with a shoulder height of 1.61 meters.

This shoulder height, in all sweaty horses, has almost reached the limit.

Coupled with the well-proportioned muscles, it feels extraordinary when you look at it, but just a dozen bids, it broke 100,000 pounds.

In the end, the woman who bought the first sweaty horse was bought for 110,000.

And this woman is still the buyer who bought the sweaty horse for 80,000.

The first half of the bloody auction was over, and Chu Xiangqian took the initiative to walk towards the lady, "Congratulations, ma'am." ”

The woman was also a powerful person, and suddenly asked, "Congratulations on buying 3 sweaty horses at once?"

Or do you, the owner of the Triple Crown and the former owner of the endurance record holder, know which of the 10 sweaty horses is the best? ”

As soon as these words came out, the people around them all looked at Chu Qianqian.

Chu Xiangqian thought for a few seconds, and suddenly smiled, "Madam, if I were you, I would pay more attention to that slippery horse." It's on the 2400-meter track and should be a surprise. ”

The people around were stunned for a moment, and then all regrets.

The sleek sweaty horse is only 1.53 meters tall at the shoulder, and some two-year-old sweaty horses are taller than the three-year-old horse.

Coupled with the fact that the skin color is not pure red, few people are willing to bid.

I didn't expect this horse to be the most suitable horse for the track among the ten horses.

Chu Xiangqian continued to stimulate everyone and said, "Why don't you take advantage of the second auction in the afternoon to find a rider to give it a try?" ”

Everyone immediately reacted that this is a Jockey Club in itself, and there is a regular track outside.

There is certainly no shortage of riders either.

Although there are no other horses that interfere with and stimulate each other's desire to win, the results that the riders are not familiar with are not too different from the official races.

When the female buyer heard Chu Xiangqian's words, she couldn't help but hesitate.

In case you can't run the results, the value of the three horses you bought may drop by one or two percent immediately.

Of course, if it is really the same as what Chu Xiangqian said, the value will definitely rise by a wave.

Chu Xiangqian was secretly happy in his heart, looked at the woman and said, "It hasn't been settled yet, if you want to, I will bear the consequences." ”

When the woman and the people around her heard this, they immediately gave Chu Qianqian a thumbs up.

"My name is Wattana-Lee, and I'm of Thai-Chinese descent."

Chu Xiangqian immediately became interested, the privatization of land in Thailand is extremely high, and the big landlords are almost equal to the emperor of the soil.

Moreover, the possibility of rich people participating in politics is also extremely high, and basically the high-ranking officials in each place are the richest people in the local area.

However, thinking about the next few years, because of the invasion of Yue Nan by the United States, the situation in Thailand will be chaotic for many years, and Chu Xiangqian is a little afraid to invest in Thailand.

As for tourism, even Europeans and Americans only began to focus on Thailand in the 8 and 90s.

At this time, it seems that investing in Thailand can only be invested in land.

After thinking about it, Chu Xiangqian secretly said that it was better to forget it.

And Chu Xiangqian has now determined that this woman has taken the risk of photographing 3 sweaty horses, and she is definitely not a pure horse racing enthusiast.

Otherwise, a normal person would not even buy the least optimistic horse for one or two hundred thousand pounds above the market price.

Chu Qianqian nodded, "Nice to meet you, Ms. Li." ”

Watana naturally heard it, and Chu Xiangqian's tone was faintly distant, which made her both helpless and a little annoyed.

In Thailand, if someone is so perfunctory, they must make the other party look good.

If you want to invest in Xiangjiang and have the habits of Chinese people, you naturally have to be familiar with the local situation first, and at the same time hope to cooperate with local powerful people.

After thinking about it, Wattana decided to see if the slippery sweaty horse was really the same as Chu Xiangqian said, and could perform well on the track.

When everyone saw her nodding, they immediately walked out happily.

Linda walked up to him with some concern and asked, "Honey, are you sure?" ”

Chu Xiangqian laughed, these horses were all selected by himself from the novice village, as long as he took a picture, he would know the three-dimensional data of the horses.

Sure enough, half an hour later, the sweaty horse ran a time of 2:29.21, which was basically close to the 2400m record on Hong Kong Island.

Just this run, the value of this horse immediately exceeded 100,000 or 120,000 pounds.

The hundreds of customers around all felt sorry and regretted, and Wattana and the two people beside her jumped excitedly.

When this horse is brought back to Thailand, he may win a championship and the family's local and national fame will rise by then.

Looking at Chu Xiangqian's target, it was called soft, but when he saw Linda who was obediently staying by Chu Xiangqian's side, Wattana's heart darkened.

Although she thinks she is also a beauty, she is in her 30s, and her height and figure are compared with Linda, which is immediately a level worse.

If Elisa was there, Wattana might not have been able to compare at all.

Thinking about the relationship between Chu Xiangqian and Margaret, Vattana shook his head helplessly, took the initiative to walk to Chu Xiangqian's side, stretched out his hand and said, "Thank you." ”

Chu Xiangqian laughed, but said deliberately, "It's good if you're satisfied, if you get into trouble in Xiangjiang, come to me directly." ”

As for whether it really helps, it depends on the sincerity of this woman.

As soon as he heard it, Watana understood that Chu Xiangqian should have guessed his thoughts.

said with a wry smile, "Maybe it won't be long, and I really have to trouble Mr. Chu." ”

Chu Xiangqian nodded indifferently, and did things when he gave money.

Or give yourself what you need, and it's no problem to give her a hand.

As for the identity of the same Chinese, it is basically useless in front of Chu Xiangqian.

Of course, if ordinary Chinese people are in trouble, they will naturally help if they can.

But Vatana looked like a very rich man, and when they were in trouble, it was not a small trouble.

But he still said, "It's okay, if you have trouble looking for me on Hong Kong Island." ”

Vattana smiled and nodded, said thank you again, and took someone to the Jockey Club to deliver the three sweaty horses.

The people around him, the enthusiasm for the auction suddenly rose.

More than a dozen desert tyrants also gathered together and had a heated discussion.

They also bought 2 of the 10 sweaty horses in the morning, and the Arabian horses in the afternoon, they were not very interested.

After all, desert tyrants, beasts, Arabian horses and falcons have always been standard.

Some families even own thousands of Arabian horses.

So in their hearts, the best Arabian horses in the world must only exist in desert areas.

But with the results of the slippery horse just now, no one doubted Chu Qianqian's gaze anymore.

Therefore, the Arabian horses that can be selected by him and put up for auction are at least of the best level.

After the filming started at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the enthusiasm of these desert tyrants really soared.

Chu Xiangqian and Bridge, as well as the Club's consultants, had previously estimated the horse at about 20,000 pounds, but with their participation, they were auctioned for 30,000 pounds at once.

Dozens of participants, in the end, could only helplessly shake their heads and look at these dozen Arabs, competing with themselves.

But for Chu Xiangqian, it was naturally a big profit.

The auction ended with 20 horses selling for a total of £1.21 million.

After deducting Bridge's 5% commission, as well as the venue hire fee, Chu Xiangqian took the initiative to give a personnel bonus, and finally came to a full 1.14 million pounds.

When Bridge handed the check to Chu Xiangqian, "Chu, the buyers are so after the horses under your name, they will come every year in the future, no problem, right?" ”

Chu shrugged forward, "If you don't bother, it's okay to have two games in a year." And my people are now looking at the Andalusian horse, Hanover and Quarter horse.

In the first half of the year, three thoroughbred special sessions will be held, and in the second half of the year, there will be a warmblood special session. ”

Bridge was overjoyed, and because of the success of the horse today, it is conceivable that the Hong Kong Island Jockey Club will be able to attract more potential buyers by holding such auctions in the future.

Instead of today's auction, the buyers who come to the auction are basically invited by the Club's network.

Even the local wealthy people on Hong Kong Island only have three or four people involved.

As for Ge Bai, they were also excited and regretful at this time.

The excitement is because the value of the sweat and blood horses in their hands has risen by at least 30%. The reasons for regret are more depressing than for other buyers.

In their eyes, the sweat and blood of the horse were not ranked at all compared to the sweat and blood they had.

But he didn't want everyone to lose his eyes, but let the Thais take advantage of it.

Seeing Chu Xiangqian and Bridges together, Ge Bai, Nelson, Charles, Hahn, Blair and Lucas hurriedly walked over.

"Chu, you're being too cunning."

Chu Xiangqian laughed, the slippery horse was indeed deliberately taken out by himself, in order to raise the topic.

The news that someone picked up is definitely better disseminated, after all, everyone has the psychology of taking advantage.

It's just that I didn't expect to be picked up by Wattana.

Charles glanced at Linda and reminded with a smile, "Chu, I'm sure you should be able to read that woman's mind, right?" ”

Chu Qianqian nodded, "Don't worry, it's nothing more than a rich guy who wants to come to Hong Kong Island to invest, and wants to meet local celebrities before investing." By the way, buy a good horse or two to go back to save face.

And that's a good thing for us. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help laughing.

Before today, there is a high probability that you will not pay attention to Wattana and her family's investment on Hong Kong Island.

But now, if there is a chance, these ghosts don't mind taking the initiative to cause some trouble for them.

After all, this is a wealthy family that took out 284,000 pounds at once.

Chu Xiangqian naturally wouldn't take special care of Wattana and the family behind her, outsiders wanted to enter a region to grab business, which was itself a move to grab the market with local merchants.

It's strange not to bother with them.

But correspondingly, if Hong Kong people want to invest in Thailand, there will be no less trouble.

Ge Bai finally said, "Then let's take a look first?" ”

The others looked at Chu Xiangqian, after all, Wattana himself said that he was Chinese.

Chu shrugged forward, "Don't look at me like that, there are so many Chinese and Chinese, I don't have the heart to know all of them."

Besides, the local merchants are asked for so much by you to eat and take cards, I just want to say that if you have a good chance, remember to bring me. ”

A few ghost guys couldn't help laughing, "Chu, you are a qualified capitalist now."

However, if there is a good investment project in London, you have to remember our old friends. ”

Chu Xiangqian's heart moved, and what he said secretly said was Bridge, could it be the building in Knightsbridge?

Pretending to be puzzled, he asked, "What is a good investment opportunity?" ”

Seeing that he was still pretending to be confused, Bridge and the others said with a smile, "Chu, don't forget, Nelson and they stayed in Simmons' hotel for 6 days.

And Mr. Simmons has two brothers, several nephews and nieces, and we don't need to take the initiative to inquire, and some things will reach our ears. ”

Fake, Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but curse in his heart.

But if you think about it seriously, you know that the secret fight between the three Simmons brothers is inevitable.

Even if the relationship between the three brothers is good, the third generation may not be able to talk about family affection.

For the sake of the legacy, it will definitely be a bloody fight in the future.

After Chu Xiangqian secretly sighed, he seriously thought about the possibility of working together to build a five-star hotel in Knightsbridge, London.
