“Xiao Zhuang, speed horse racing, and Mongolian horse racing are different, not only do the horses have to go through specialized training, that is, the choice of jockeys is also very elaborate, so it’s not malicious of me to say that this you sweatblood horse is not as good as a thoroughbred horse at short sprints.”

Dr. Shu Wen was afraid that Zhuang Rui had some misunderstanding, and spoke out to explain to him, this is Zhuang Rui, if he were to change to another person, I’m afraid that Shu Wen wouldn’t say a word more.

There are many factors that determine the winners and losers in horse racing, and in front of the huge stakes, behind the scenes is not without the existence of the black hand, happened in the racecourse in the malicious collision, may be the result of some black hand manipulation.

So Zhuang Rui’s words, in Dr. Shu and other people hear, all feel a little funny, this is clearly a child betting will say words!

“After all is said and done, aren’t you looking down on your buddy’s wind chasing?”

Zhuang Rui slandered, but with a smile on his face, he said, “Dr. Shu, you misunderstood me, I’m not upset, I just want to say, no matter what type of horse racing, my Chasing Wind must be the best, there is no one.”

“Young man, don’t talk too much! There are no absolutes in this world.” Hearing Zhuang Rui say so, Dr. Shu Wen was also a bit unhappy.

With his status coming to Zhuang Rui’s door today to make amends, it’s actually already very condescending, and some well-intentioned horse-racing, but also misinterpreted by Zhuang Rui, which makes Dr. Shu Wen feel a bit embarrassed about his face.

“Oh, Dr. Shu, I don’t dare to say about other horses, but Chasing Wind will definitely work!” Zhuang Rui also didn’t budge an inch, “It’s fine for you to bury your buddy twice, but you can’t trash my partner! Bullying it won’t talk and can’t refute it isn’t it?”

Zhuang Rui’s attitude also let the presence of these old men some surprise, in fact, just now Dr. Shu’s words really is not excessive, but seems Zhuang Rui some more serious.

“Well, what’s the use of you old and young to say here! As the saying goes, it’s the mule that comes out of the horse, Xiao Zhuang, wouldn’t it be fine to let it go to the racetrack in Macau on the weekend?”

“Yes, yes, Lao Guo is right, don’t we know who’s good and who’s bad when we compare them?”

“That’s right! Compare them over the weekend and see if the sweat-blooded BMW that has been passed down for thousands of years is better, or the foreign thoroughbred.”

The matter was started by Guo Daheng, now this one came out to round up the situation again, but his words also got the unanimous approval of the crowd, saying more is useless, running a lap on the racecourse is the real thing.

“Good, than just compare, how many races are the weekend races?” Zhuang Rui’s words came out of his mouth.

“Originally it was 10 races, but there are racehorses from all over the world to participate, it was temporarily added to 12 races.”

Someone on the side answered Zhuang Rui’s words, this Macau horse race was originally organized jointly with the Hong Kong Jockey Club, all the decisions could be said to have been made by this group of old men in the current Horse Lounge.

“Then my Chasing Wind will participate in 12 races.”

Just after Zhuang Rui’s words were uttered, he felt that something was not right, and sure enough, after he uttered these words, the whole venue was quiet, and a group of old men whose average age was definitely above eighty were all staring at Zhuang Rui as if they were looking at Ultraman with the eyes of a child.

You know, speed racing is to stimulate all the potential of the horse in the shortest possible time, making it explode all the physical strength in a short distance, but after a consumption, the horse is no longer able to carry out strenuous exercise for a period of time.

Like the world’s fastest cheetah, its speed can reach a staggering 110 kilometers per hour, can be said to be the world’s fastest creature running on the ground.

But this kind of extreme speed, the cheetah can only keep at most two or three minutes, after that, no matter whether it can capture the prey, the cheetah will consume a lot of physical strength, at least in a few hours, it can’t hunt again.

So Zhuang Rui just said that sentence, is simply layman’s extreme, listening to a bunch of old men face odd not to mention, even outside the people are jaw-dropping can’t say anything.

If there really is such a horse, it is estimated that it is also a heavenly horse raised by the heavenly canopy marshal in the myth and legend, right? Anyway, these people have been playing with horses for decades, but they have never seen a horse that can compete in several races one after another.

“Xiao Rui, you’ve never raced a horse, right?” This time even Master Qin couldn’t look at it anymore, if he continued, this granddaughter-in-law of his was going to lose even more people.

“Raced ah!”

Zhuang Rui also felt that his words just now some inappropriate, simply play dumb and said: “I in the prairie and Timur Anta race horse, their horses are not rivals.”

Sure enough, after hearing Zhuang Rui’s words, a good-natured laughter rang out around them, there were many people among them who had been to the prairie before, and had also raced their horses there, but there was still a big difference between prairie horse racing and speed horse racing.

Master Qin cried and laughed as he coughed twice and said, “Xiao Rui ah! It’s fine if you want to participate in the weekend’s horse races, but 12 of them are exempt, that will tire the horses out, I think, just pick one of them to participate in!”

“Okay, then I’ll pick the one with Dr. Shu racing!”

Zhuang Rui nodded his head and agreed, although he heard Bo Mengan say yesterday that the horse used in the horse race has to be finalized a week in advance, but there are so many directors of the Horse Club’s board of directors in the arena, so I’m sure that this little matter can’t be difficult for them, right?

“Good, let’s have a match with old brother Shu Wen, I’ll support you.”

As soon as Zhuang Rui’s words fell, Guo Daheng, who was full of old age spots, immediately cocked his thumb, it seems that he has indeed been suppressed by Shu Wen in these decades, but he won’t let go of the slightest chance to win.

“Thank you Elder Guo.” Zhuang Rui smiled at this legendary tycoon of the real estate world.

“Little guy, I support you too.” The King of Gamblers, who was sitting in a wheelchair, also gave Zhuang Rui a thumbs up.

However, the Gambling King’s attitude displeased Dr. Shu Wen and jokingly said, “He Sheng, you can’t even trust my horse, huh?”

“This little guy is good at creating miracles, I’m the one who believes in him.”

The King of Gamblers’ words took the crowd by surprise, knowing that Mr. He had been in the gambling world for more than half a century, and although he himself never gambled, his skill in reading people was unmatched in the world.

“Well then, let’s add a little more to the pot!”

Being belittled by an old friend who had been friends for decades, Dr. Shu Wen was still so angry in his heart, “I can’t gamble with you in gambling, but I really don’t believe it, I who have been playing with horses for half of my life, can I lose to you who play with antiques?”

“Good, good, add a little color, this is only interesting.”

“Right, right, last time Mr. Li you won me 20 million dollars, this time I want to win it back!”

“That’s not necessarily true, maybe we both pressed the same horse!”

The sound of Shu Wen’s words just fell, immediately resounded a chorus of voices of agreement, a gang of super rich people heard that they could open a bet, immediately smiled and laughed and joked with each other.

“This …… is okay like this?”

Zhuang Rui who was standing in the stables, seeing this scene in front of him, really didn’t know what to say, such a group of Chinese super rich people, actually discussing horse betting here? If the people who bought their inspirational books saw them, I don’t know what they would think?

In fact, Zhuang Rui did not know, in the circle of Hong Kong’s top tycoons, there are often some colorful races, and the stakes are very big, just not known to outsiders.

Like that Superman Lee likes to play golf, often about a group of friends match, and a casual golf down, the amount of money often reaches tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars to win or lose.

Of course, for these people, these tens of millions of dollars is just pocket money in the eyes of ordinary people, and not so much as to appear what hurt feelings.

Seeing Zhuang Rui’s dumbfounded look, Guo Daheng laughed, “Little guy, taking your horse for a bet is a bit unkind! Count your share, how about it, you also throw some in?”

“This …… how to bet ah?”

Zhuang Rui found himself and a “gambling” word really can not get out of the relationship, every time as long as the two places to Hong Kong and Macao, is not gambling stone is gambling cards, surprisingly, there is no time to play on a few days of peacefully and steadily.

Just Zhuang Rui did not see, outside the corridor of those who heard the words of Guo Daheng, face are showing the envy of the extreme look, can not wait to be invited by their own people is good.

These super-rich people like to play some sports with colors, this is well known in the upper circles of Hong Kong, and even some newspapers have reported on it.

But the circle they bet on is very small, come and go only a few people, there are a lot of people with money want to join there is no doorway, and now Guo Daheng spoke out to invite Zhuang Rui, that in some way, Zhuang Rui got the recognition of these tycoons.

Guo Daheng waved his hand and said, “Simple, just you and Dr. Shu Wen bet against each other, regardless of the outcome of the race, whether you two horses won the championship, as long as you two who ran ahead, even who won, I said a few, this betting method is okay ah?”

Guo Daheng’s last sentence heard Zhuang Rui is crying and laughing, dare to say that the rules set by this old man, is a temporary come up with ah?

“Then …… how much money is appropriate to bet?”

Zhuang Rui for the rules is indifferent, anyway, as long as the wind chasing run to win on the line, someone wants to send money to spend, he can not push out right? Not to mention the fact that these people in front of him were arguably the richest group of people in the world.

“Little guy, I’ll press you for 50 million Hong Kong dollars, Shu Wen old brother, take the bet or not?”

This kind of betting between the rich and powerful, there is no banker, so if Guo Daheng wants to press Zhuang Rui for 50 million dollars, he must also have Shu Wen nod his head to do so, and as long as Shu Wen agrees to do so, then after he loses, he is going to compensate Guo Daheng for this money.

“No problem, if any of you are willing to press Xiao Zhuang, I’ll take it next, but I’ll press my own thoroughbred horse for 100 million Hong Kong dollars, I don’t know if the young man dares to take it?”

Shu Wen’s words made a group of people’s eyes focused on Zhuang Rui’s body, except for a few people, the rest of the people but all of them don’t know Zhuang Rui’s wealth.
