Lu Huai and Feng Mou narrowed their eyes slightly, and saw a somewhat familiar figure flash past and enter the stable.
It really looks like Shi Yang.
"He came to Dutian Racecourse, didn't he inform you in advance?" Lu Huaiyu asked.
Shen Li shook her head, feeling a little strange:
"Second brother, why do you ask that?"
Although she is in charge of Watada Racecourse now, but during the Jockey Club, there are so many people who come to watch the race, it is impossible for her to take care of everyone.
What's more, the relationship between her and Shi Yang is far from this level.
Lu Huaiyu smiled thoughtfully:
"Last time at Boxing Auction, he held up a sign for your painting, and he also publicly expressed his appreciation for your painting more than once before, I thought—"
"He said such things, but I really have nothing to do with him." Shen Li said, "Master doesn't like him. Senior brother attended one of his dinners before, and Master talked about it for a long time."
Another point: she also doesn't appreciate Shi Yang.
For some reason, she always felt that Shi Yang gave her a sense of distance.
Although Shi Yang is well-known in the industry for his gentle temper and good popularity, he is respected by his peers and admired by his students.
But in the few times she had contact with him, there always seemed to be an invisible barrier.
She didn't say these words clearly, but Lu Huaiyu knew her very well, with just one look, he quickly understood.
He nodded knowingly.
Shen Li held the rein, turned her head and said:
"Second brother, senior brother should be here soon, shall we go back?"
Yu Pingchuan likes raising horses, watching horse races, and betting on horses.
He has been thinking about coming to this horse race meeting for a long time.
According to the previous plan, he should arrive in Hong Kong this afternoon.
"good."
Lu Huai responded, and with a force on his wrist, Qingfeng turned around and walked back.
When they got to the sidelines, Lu Huaiyu dismounted first, and then extended his hand towards Shen Li.
Shen Li put her hand into his palm, then her waist tightened, and she was dismounted by Lu Huai and Ban.
Afterwards, Lu Huaihe held Qingfeng with one hand and Shen Li's hand with the other, and walked towards the stable.
…
When the two returned with Qingfeng, they met Shi Yang again.
He was standing in front of a stall, looking at the horses inside.
The horse trainer stood by and introduced him carefully:
"Mr. Shi, this horse has a pure pedigree, and has performed very well in the previous few races. It looks like a champion. It is the favorite to win the championship this year."
Shi Yang listened patiently to what he said, smiled, and pointed to a horse in the next compartment:
"What about this horse?"
The trainer froze for a moment:
"This one is not bad, but it's not as good as the one you saw just now."
For a more intuitive expression, he added another sentence:
"This batch is 5.8 million, and that one is 4 million."
It's up to everyone to see which is better.
However, Shi Yang still said:
"Then this one."
He chose the four million one.
The horse trainer was very surprised. Those who came here to pick horses naturally hoped that their horses would win.
What's more, with Shi Yang's status, he is not short of this little money, so he wouldn't choose that one just to save money.
"Mr. Shi, are you sure? This horse did not perform well in the previous test—"
"This horse is very beautiful, it suits my eyes."
Shi Yang interrupted him, but probably because his tone was still gentle and polite, the horse trainer was just stunned and didn't feel uncomfortable.
He looked at the two horses carefully again.
They are all worth millions of horses selected into the first district. Although there is a gap, it is not particularly obvious to the naked eye.
The assistant smiled and said:
"Yes! White horses are precious, and this one looks better."
Only then did the horse trainer understand: the horse he recommended was a brown horse, while the other horse that Shi Yang took a fancy to was a white horse.
Ordinary people do fall in love with the white horse more easily.
He originally thought that Shi Yang should know a lot about this, but he didn't expect—
But after all, this is someone buying a horse with money, and he is a horse trainer, so he is not qualified to comment.
So, he immediately smiled and said:
"Yes, all horses are spiritual. Since Mr. Shi has taken a fancy to this horse at a glance, it also proves that you have a destiny with it."
Shi Yang smiled and nodded.
"That's it."
The horse trainer did not expect him to be so straightforward:
"Then... don't you want to try riding?"
This white horse has a relatively docile temper, and there is no problem in the test ride.
Shi Yang said:
"No. Just choose it."
Hearing what he said, the horse trainer was also very happy:
"Okay, then please follow me."
There is always a follow-up process.
Shi Yang responded, and as soon as he turned around, he heard the horse trainer's respectful voice:
"Miss A Li, Second Young Master Lu."
Shi Yang raised his eyes and saw Shen Li and Lu Huaiyu walking towards him.
A smile appeared on Shi Yang's face:
"I saw you riding horses just now, so I didn't bother you in the past."
Shen Li glanced at the horse he picked:
"Teacher Shi Yang has already chosen?"
Shi Yang nodded.
Shen Li raised her hand and pointed:
"There's a batch of new ones over there, and they're all pretty good too. You can take a look."
"Thank you, but there's no need." Shi Yang declined with a slight smile, "I've already picked this thing, the most important thing is that you like it."
Inexplicably, Shen Li felt a little uncomfortable hearing his words.
this thing...
Horses are spiritual, but according to his words, buying a horse seems to be no different from buying a vase or a cabinet.
But this feeling also flashed through her mind quickly, after all, this is someone else's business.
She nodded:
"You said so."
Considering that she still needs to pick up Yu Pingchuan, she said:
"I wish you a happy time in Hong Kong City these days. I still have things to deal with, so I'm sorry."
Shi Yang expressed his understanding, and he also had to go through the formalities of buying a horse, so he said goodbye to the two of them directly.
The two sides separated and walked in different directions.
…
Yu Pingchuan still stayed at the hotel next to Watada Racecourse this time.
When Shen Li and Lu Huai were in the past, he was already looking through this year's jockey schedule in the hotel room.
In fact, he has been here many times and is very familiar with these things, but this year is different: Shen Li is in charge of the horse race this time.
However, it has only been a year, and Shen Li's identity has undergone tremendous changes. As a senior brother, he came with Shen Li last year, so his mood is naturally different.
The doorbell rang, and Yu Pingchuan went to open the door.
Seeing Shen Li, he immediately laughed:
"Ari is here? Come in!"
"Brother, sorry, we are late."
Shen Li walked in front, followed by Lu Huai.
Yu Pingchuan waved his hand:
"It's not too late! You guys just came from the racecourse?"
Shen Li nodded, sat down on the sofa beside him, and said casually:
"When I met Teacher Shi Yang, we chatted for a while."
Yu Pingchuan was surprised: "Shi Yang? Why is he here?"
Shen Li saw his reaction a little strangely: "He's here to pick a horse."
Yu Pingchuan was stunned for a moment:
"He doesn't seem to be interested in these things. Why did he suddenly come to buy horses this time?"
It went down again, and the power went out.
Today is the third watch, good night.
I hope everyone is safe and well.
