Rural life in America

Chapter 8

What Zhang Hao wants to buy is a British thoroughbred horse worth [-] US dollars. This kind of horse is considered to be the most suitable for short-distance sprints; of course, it is not that simple to trade such a horse. lead away.

Zhang Hao needs to take a look at the information of this horse. Generally speaking, such a horse has a microchip implanted in its neck, which records some information about the horse; The 'ID card' of the horse.

For transactions, there are naturally special exchanges, which require 'transfer'.

Zhang Hao spent a lot of money, so naturally he has nothing in his pocket; considering that he has no pasture or yard now, this horse must not be transported back.

After thinking about it, it is better to find a horse training center in Kentucky. Although it will cost a lot of money, it is worth it.

Horses who want to go on the track need not only talent but also special training from an early age, and need to learn to 'run'; the same is true for those sprinters, not to mention talent, they also need to go through systematic and scientific training. will be better.

Fox smiled. The half-sized colt that cost him a lot of money was finally sold; it may not have the sky-high price when it was favored at the beginning, but it is not bad to be able to sell for more than 8 US dollars.

Fox is satisfied, and Zhang Hao is also quite satisfied; this horse is suitable for short-term operation, as long as it is trained patiently, it will definitely explode.

Zhang Hao not only knows how to watch horses, but also knows how to train and raise horses; he plans to find a horse training center because he has no land to raise horses, and because he really doesn't have much experience in horse racing training, so he should leave it to professionals Come to train well, he is at most just to give some advice.

After contacting the horse training center, it is serious to send the horse there immediately.

I also feel the pressure, the horse training center charges a lot of money; Zhang Hao feels that he needs to make more money, not only because he needs to support his family, but also because he needs to raise horses.

The little pony has a bit of a bad temper, and it belongs to the type that is more likely to hurt people and refuse to obey discipline; such a horse is not suitable for leisure riding, nor is it Zhang Hao's ideal mount.But that's okay, this horse is good for short sprints on the track.

The manager of the horse training center received Zhang Hao warmly. Although he was not very optimistic about this pony, the customer is God.

Zhang Hao talked eloquently, focusing on reminding the training method of this horse; he is not a novice who knows nothing, he knows how to make this pony start to explode as soon as possible. Cash out and make a fortune after a pony breaks out.

Anderson recorded them one by one, and then led Zhang Hao to the stables; it is really a great horse training center, and the stables are tall.Clean and tidy, comfortable and well equipped.

After rejecting the rider recommended by Anderson, Zhang Hao didn't have that much money.

There is a track next to the stables, and some people will also foster their horses in the horse training center; there is a very good racehorse galloping on the track now, but it looks ordinary to Zhang Hao, at least not as good as his racehorse.

Zhang Hao asked, "How much can such a racehorse be sold for?"

Anderson replied: "Its pedigree is good, but its performance on the track is not stable enough. It is a bit difficult for it to stand on the track of the first-class competition, but because of its pedigree and age, I think many people are willing to buy it at 30 US dollars. Take it left and right."

Zhang Hao laughed and said, "Train my horse as I said, and my little guy can stand on the track of the first-level competition."

Anderson didn't say anything, he was not optimistic about Zhang Hao's horse racing; but some people were dissatisfied, is it so easy to enter the first level race?
"Boy, can I see your horse? Do you know horse racing?"

Zhang Hao frowned a little. This was an old man with a white beard; he looked very angry, as if he was angry because of Zhang Hao's outrageous words.

Zhang Hao is also not polite: "My horse is in the stable next to it, you can go and see for yourself. But believe me, only those who know horse racing will find its value."

The old man with the white beard angrily went to see the divine power that could stand on a first-level horse, but soon burst into laughter.

"Haha, is this the horse? Boy, I know RB's horse racing is pretty good, but you still don't understand horse racing!"

Zhang Hao frowned even more. Of course he knew that RB's horse racing is also very developed, but it really feels bad to be regarded as a RB person.

Glancing at the old man with a white beard, Zhang Hao gritted his teeth and said, "I'm from China."

The white-bearded old man laughed out loud, not necessarily because he looked down on China; but the meaning is obvious, there is really no market for horse racing in China.

The unpleasant conversation between Zhang Hao and the white-bearded old man also attracted the attention of several people who were watching the horse racing training, and they also came to join in the fun; this group of people obviously knew the white-bearded old man, and they started chatting.

There is nothing to be concerned about. It should be an old man with a white beard named Tony who is talking about Zhang Hao's racing horse; it has thick legs, big hooves, and uncoordinated body proportions. Such a horse cannot go on the track.

Zhang Hao smiled, he had nothing to say to the ignorant people.

He was not so domineering and wanted to slap his face, because Zhang Hao felt that such an insignificant person didn't need to care; he still had other things to do, so he went to pay the fee. The horse training center is not a charity organization, and their fees make people feel distressed.

After summing up the bill, Zhang Hao felt distressed in all kinds of ways.

Exquisite feed is expensive, the trainer's fee is also high, and there are some management fees, etc., which are enough to make Zhang Hao feel distressed; it is not something ordinary people can afford to raise a top-level racehorse. So much more than raising kids!

There is no reward if there is no effort, Zhang Hao endured it.

Just when Zhang Hao was about to leave, Tony, who was a little unhappy with Zhang Hao before, appeared, and hurried over with several people.

It's not seeking revenge, but Ai Ai's opening: "Sir, is your horse willing to sell its shares?"

Zhang Hao was taken aback and understood; many people in the United States like to share risks, and the same goes for raising horses. It is normal for a top racehorse to have many shareholders.

"Shares? Then it depends on the price, but I prefer to sell directly."

Tony immediately said: "Then how much are you willing to sell? If it can pass the assessment of my partner and me, we are willing to take it at a reasonable price."

Zhang Hao said with a smile: "At least 90 US dollars, it will go to the first-level competition track."

As soon as Zhang Hao's words fell, Tony's face was not good-looking, and some partners around him also started to scream strangely, all kinds of horses that looked down on Zhang Hao.

Zhang Hao, who didn't care at all, said: "So its value can only be seen by people who understand horses. You only see its uncoordinated body proportions and thick legs. But you didn't notice that its joints are also very thick. He has the potential to put on weight. And the guy was bred the wrong way, he's not explosive, but he's got great stamina, he's got a quick pace."

Tony immediately said: "We want to put it on the track for a few trials, but you also need to lower your price. We know it may have potential, but no one wants to bet so much money on a risky horse. race."

Zhang Hao snorted and said: "If there is no risk, then its price is not just 90 US dollars!"

There was a heated debate at the beginning, about the potential and risks of this colt, etc;

Zhang Hao was a little excited. The quotation of 90 US dollars must be high, but he could still make a lot of money after the counter-offer, and he could earn hundreds of thousands of dollars in a change of hands!

Tony and the others started calling their partners and trusted horse trainers. They were going to conduct a comprehensive assessment. This risky horse might bring huge profits.

A racehorse worth hundreds of thousands of dollars cannot be decided immediately. At least Tony and a few of his business partners need to carefully examine this racehorse.

Zhang Hao is also working hard, now is not the time to take Joe, he needs money, so naturally he needs to sell hard.

The foal ran a few laps on the track. Although the horse had undergone some training, some of the previous training was not systematic, and it was also because the previous horse owner lost the patience to continue investing after the foal stopped growing.

For Zhang Hao, it is natural to introduce the advantages of this horse; while Tony and his potential buyers and professional horse trainers are evaluating, based on their experience, and carefully comparing some details.

For example, the specific body numbers of this horse, such as the stride frequency and stride comparison of this horse on the track, as well as short-distance sprints and long-distance endurance tests, etc., all of which need to be compared one by one.

Two consecutive days were spent on this matter, but Zhang Hao became more and more confident; because although Tony and the others still had some hesitation, they could already see that the horse seemed to be as bad as Zhang Hao said. unusual.

If bred properly, it is really possible to run a good result.

The offer of 90 US dollars is a big mouth for the lion, and it is only natural to pay back the money when it lands; however, although the counter-offer is not small, it is also profitable for Zhang Hao.

After signing the contract for US$65, the deal was completed; within three days, he made more than US$50 as soon as he changed hands, and Zhang Hao made a fortune.

With vision and courage, Zhang Hao has made this business; he can also start thinking about buying a small ranch, so that he can take better care of his family!
