Horse training can show a person's willpower and courage. So far, Fang Zhicheng has shown enough courage. He dares to challenge the unknown, which has already added a lot of points in Su Lin's heart.
After another ten minutes or so, Su Lin's eyes lit up. The speed of the wild horse slowly slowed down. Fang Zhicheng had already adapted to the violent bumps. He clamped his legs around the horse's belly and kept whipping it with his hands.
Finally, the wild horse neighed, stopped and lowered its head. Fang Zhicheng put away the whip and gently stroked the reddish-brown horse mane with his hand.
Su Lin and the horse trainer trotted over. The trainer grabbed the reins. Fang Zhicheng jumped off the horse. Suddenly, he felt his legs go weak. With the help of Su Lin, he managed to stand firmly.
"Zhicheng, have you really never ridden a horse before?" Su Lin asked with a smile.
Fang Zhicheng smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes."
Su Lin patted Fang Zhicheng on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Then you can be considered a genius in this area. Give this horse a name, now he belongs to you."
Fang Zhicheng was slightly startled, and said with a wry smile: "It costs a lot of money to raise a horse, right?"
Su Lin waved his hand and said, "What is money? It's just something outside of your body. I'll help you raise it. Besides, this horse has a talent for racing. If it can run well in the future, apart from the maintenance fee, it can even make money. By the way, please give it a name."
Fang Zhicheng thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Let's call him Lie."
Su Lin nodded and said, "Ma Yuelie is better. This name is not bad."
Fang Zhicheng recalled the feeling just now and finally understood why many people like riding horses. Although he was a little flustered because it was his first time and he was also extremely irritable, the moment he got on the horse's back, the feeling of conquest filled his whole body, making him feel extremely satisfied.
To make an inappropriate analogy, conquering a wild horse is more powerful than conquering a woman, and it can prove that you are a manly person!
Fang Zhicheng then rode Lie for two more laps. Fang Zhicheng was still very athletic, having shown some of his athletic talent when swimming at school, and now when riding a horse. Basically, the horse trainer only needed to tell Fang Zhicheng the techniques, and he would be able to master them quickly.
Su Lin's horsemanship has reached another level. When he sits on a horse, he looks like an elegant gentleman. The usual dandy air is completely gone. If he is dressed in armor, he looks like a knight from Central Europe.
After the horse riding activity, Fang Zhicheng found that his skeleton seemed to be falling apart, and then Su Lin took Fang Zhicheng to the bathroom to take a shower. After the shower, Su Lin smiled and said, "I will take you to meet a few people at the banquet in the afternoon. Some of them are my partners, and some are my business friends."
Fang Zhicheng nodded and said with a smile: "I'll follow your arrangements."
Fang Zhicheng realized that Su Lin brought Fang Zhicheng to the farm today, on the one hand to let him relax, and on the other hand to introduce some people to Fang Zhicheng.
Su Lin is willing to open up his network of relationships to Fang Zhicheng, which fully demonstrates that Su Lin has completely accepted himself.
Fang Zhicheng was quite touched. Perhaps this was the blood relationship. Although they had not spent a long time together, they had the same blood, so they could communicate with each other without any guard or caution.
The reason why Su Lin was so open with Fang Zhicheng was, on the one hand, because of Su Qing. He had a special respect for Su Qing since childhood; on the other hand, he felt that Fang Zhicheng's personality was very much to his liking. He was as sincere as his name suggested.
During lunch, I met Su Lin's friends. One of them was a young woman whose age was hard to tell, but she was dressed in a rather gaudy way. When she saw Su Lin, she smiled like a flower, then stared at Fang Zhicheng behind him with a burning gaze, and said with a smile: "Boss Su, you have changed your taste today. It's rare to see you bringing a man instead of a woman."

Su Lin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Xu Ping, let me introduce you. This is my nephew, Fang Zhicheng."
Xu Ping took the initiative to extend her hand, shook hands with Fang Zhicheng, and said, "Hello, I'm your uncle's best friend, Xu Ping. Well, you can call me Sister Xu from now on."
Xu Ping is the farm owner and Su Lin's partner.
Su Lin smiled and said, "You and I are buddies, but you want my nephew to call you sister. Doesn't this seem a bit confusing?"
Xu Ping blinked at Fang Zhicheng and said, "What's the point of this? Sister is just a title. It's a way of showing respect to me as a single person."
Su Lin said unhappily, "You? You have so many boyfriends. Being single is just a disguise."
Xu Ping glared at Su Lin and said, "Don't slander my reputation in front of the young hunk. Come on, the young hunk will sit with me tonight." After saying that, Xu Ping put her hand into Fang Zhicheng's arm and pulled him affectionately to her seat.
Afterwards, six more people came one after another. Su Lin introduced them to Fang Zhicheng one by one, and then said to them, "Please take good care of my nephew in the future."
Several people present were either rich or noble. One of them was Qu Jiandong, deputy director of the Development Planning Department of the National Civil Aerospace Administration, and the other was Zong Deyuan, vice president of China Airlines. They each brought a female companion and introduced them as colleagues, but Fang Zhicheng could see that their relationship was naturally more than just colleagues.
Qu Jiandong smiled and said, "Zhicheng, your uncle and I are close brothers. If you need anything in the future, just come to me."
Fang Zhicheng raised his glass to Qu Jiandong and said, "Thank you, Uncle Qu."
Su Lin's friends are about the same age as him, all nearly 50 years old. This age is the real peak of their lives, and they are also the core backbone of their respective industries.
Fang Zhicheng also wanted to perform well in front of them, but unfortunately he couldn't drink much, and after a few drinks, he couldn't drink anymore. The others wanted to toast Fang Zhicheng. Su Lin helped him out and said with a smile: "My nephew can't drink much, so I'll let him go."
They were all people of status, and they knew when to drink. Zong Deyuan smiled and said, "Boss Su, it's rare to see you defending someone like this."
Su Lin smiled faintly and said, "This is a good seedling of my Su family, so I must protect it well."
The rest of the people knew what had happened in the Su family recently. Some questions were not asked, but everyone knew it.
Su Lin has been in Yanjing recently, leaving the company in Shanzhou aside. He is immersed in various dinner parties almost every day, but careful people can find that most of the people Su Lin invites are people related to the Su family.
With Su Qing's status, it was not easy for her to invite these people in person, but Su Lin could, as he was a businessman and had enough money. During the invitation process, Su Lin did not have too many scruples and said whatever he wanted to say.
First, the Su family had Su Qing's illegitimate child scandal, and then Old Su suddenly passed away. Su Lin played a key role in making the transition go smoothly, ensuring the stability of the faction and leaving no room for competitors.
When Fang Zhicheng woke up, it was already evening. After he woke up, Su Qing brought him a bowl of hangover soup and said, "Your third uncle is too much. He took a good person away, and he came back like this."
Fang Zhicheng drank a mouthful of soup and felt much better in his stomach. He said, "Third uncle doesn't know how much I can drink. He probably overestimated me. I was too stubborn. I can't blame him."
Su Qing nodded, with a caring look in her eyes, and said, "Forget it, just finish your soup."
