Chapter 1228 – Heavenly Price (II)

“Zhuang, can I invite you guys to watch the next game here?”

Although the business didn’t work out, Bill Gates still sent out an invitation to Zhuang Rui and the others, although this luxurious private room of his wasn’t the biggest, it still didn’t have a problem accommodating more than a dozen people.

“Of course, I’m honored, Mr. Bill, when I was small, I was your admirer!”

Zhuang Rui agreed with a smile, he had an excellent impression of the world’s richest man, there wasn’t a trace of an overbearing feeling in him, instead, there was a kind of old friend-like cordiality.

“Oh, Zhuang, you are really too cruel.”

Bill Gates revealed a sad expression after hearing Zhuang Rui’s words, “Your sentence struck me twice, the first one was to talk me into old age, and the second one you said that you worshipped me when I was small, but now that I’ve grown up, is it possible that I have one less fan?”

Bill Gates’ words drew a burst of laughter from the people in the box, no one could have imagined that the richest man in the world would be so approachable and humorous.

“You guys sit down first, I’ll send an e-mail.”

Bill Gates greeted, and his entourage poured coffee for Zhuang Rui and the others, while he himself sat behind his laptop and sent an email out.

The second race was already in the preparation stage at this point, with a starting gun, ten horses ran out furiously, but this time the race was uneventful, there was nothing unexpected, and the people in the box watched with great relaxation.

“Zhuang, I am very curious, your horse called …… Chasing Wind, is it really captured from the wild?”

Bill Gates was browsing the web page while talking to Zhuang Rui, his look was very casual, the two looked like old friends for many years, and this kind of impolite behavior wouldn’t make Zhuang Rui resentful.

“Yeah! At that time, I chased it for a whole day before taming it, and almost got lost because of it.”

Hearing Bill Gates mention about chasing the wind instantly aroused Zhuang Rui’s interest in talking about it, at that time, when he captured the chasing wind, Zhuang Rui had exerted all his strength, even his aura had been exhausted.

However, Zhuang Rui seems to have forgotten, in the information he left to the Macau Jockey Club, did not say that the chasing wind was captured by himself, but only wrote that it came from the prairie, he completely did not realize that, how did Bill Gates know this?

Zhuang Rui did not know, as the promoter of the Internet era, Bill Gates wanted to query his information, obviously easy.

At the moment in front of Bill Gates laptop screen, is showing the details of Zhuang Rui, although not so much from birth to work records are there, but the trajectory of the Zhuang Rui fortune, Herrera clear arrangement of which.

“Zhuang, you really should be born in the great early last century in the western United States, then you absolutely can become an outstanding western cowboy.”

Bill Gates was checking out Zhuang Rui’s information while talking to the crowd, in his eyes, from time to time, a trace of amazement flashed, obviously, those experiences of Zhuang Rui made him feel surprised.

Zhuang Rui’s rise is just a short period of four or five years, but Zhuang Rui in these four or five years, witnessed a lot of people can’t experience in their whole life, even Bill Gates, was also attracted by these experiences of Zhuang Rui.

To know, although Bill Gates became the world’s richest man at a very young age, but his life, far from Zhuang Rui so wonderful, alone Zhuang Rui that almost modern Robinson like experience, let Bill Gates envy.

Coupled with himself and Zhuang Rui are equally juvenile, so Bill Gates and Zhuang Rui chat more and more hot, and even promised Zhuang Rui in the end of horse betting, to go to his cruise ship to see the modern King Kong.

“Excuse me, I’ll take a call.”

Inside the box when the conversation was in full swing, sitting next to the fourth wife handbag, suddenly rang the phone ringing, after confessing a sin, the fourth wife picked up the phone, but after listening to a few words, those phoenix eyes obviously widened.

Zhuang Rui saw the fourth wife hung up the phone, but also froze there, thought she wanted to leave but embarrassed to say it, so said: “What’s wrong? Fourth Mrs., if you have something to do first go and get busy, you don’t have to accompany us.”

The fourth wife was awakened by Zhuang Rui’s words, and waved her hands and said, “No …… no, Zhuang Rui, it …… is that there are a few guests who want to pay you a visit, and this is not it, it has found its way to my head.”

“Oh? Also want to buy chasing the wind, right?”

Zhuang Rui shook his head and said, “Fourth wife, help me return it! No matter how much money it costs, I’m not selling Chasing Wind.”

After hearing Zhuang Rui’s words, the Fourth Mrs. said with some embarrassment, “But …… but, they know that you’re here at Mr. Bill’s place, and they’ve all come over.”

Before the Fourth Mrs.’s words fell, a knocking sound had already sounded outside the box.

“Who are they all?”

Zhuang Rui was also a little curious in his heart, the person who could knock on the door of the world’s richest man with impunity was probably not a close friend of Bill Gates, then it must be someone who was acquainted with him as well.

When the door of the box was opened, what surprised Zhuang Rui was that Bill, who was originally sitting on the chair facing the door of the box, even stood up to welcome him.

Zhuang Rui sat on the sofa can not directly see the door, then also stood up, walked to the door, this look, can not help but freeze.

It turns out that there is more than one person standing outside the door, but there are five people standing side by side in front of the door, in their surroundings, is a group of bodyguards and stable staff, simply will be this box aisle to seal.

Seeing these five people outside the door, Zhuang Rui was also a bit dumbfounded for a moment, although he only recognized three of them, these three people, all of them, could be listed among the ranks of the most well-known people in the world.

“Your Highness William, it’s a pleasure to see you, oh, Borgia Bhutan, I didn’t expect you to come here as well, Your Highness Alwaleed, we meet again.”

To say that it was still Bill Gates bull, he knew all of these five people, after greeting three of them, Bill Gates rushed to the two behind him and stretched out his hands, saying, “Michael, Arnold, why did you two fellows come to join in the fun as well? I didn’t hear that you guys like horse racing?”

Those two people in the back, it is that star governor of the United States, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Michael Jordan, who is known as the God of Basketball, it can be seen that Bill Gates is extremely close to them, and greeted them all differently from the previous ones.

“We watched the game with William in a box, he was coming, so he accompanied us.”

Jordan shrugged his shoulders helplessly, his signature bald head looking especially bright, a thick cigar in his hand, starry-eyed.

“Come in, everyone.”

In front of these few people, Bill Gates also did not dare to be arrogant, and warmly welcomed several people all into the box.

Of course, those bodyguards were guarding the door, inside really can’t sit so many people, except a waiter stayed behind, even Mr. Chen retreated out.

“Gentlemen, you must all be rushing towards Zhuang, he’s right here, if there’s anything you want to say, you can just say it!” Bill Gates also guessed their intentions, and immediately opened the door and went straight to the point.

“Mr. Zhuang, I’m William, that thoroughbred horse, is it really yours?”

In these people, only William and Zhuang Rui are of comparable age, and those present are the richest or most powerful people on the planet, William did not sympathize, using those so-called aristocratic etiquette, and directly opened his mouth to ask out.

The origin and development of modern horse racing, and the United Kingdom has a direct relationship, the British royal family has a large-scale racecourse, every year to organize several international races.

So William has loved horse racing since he was a child, and his preference for horses is well known to the world, and being able to see such a divine horse in this place in Macau, he wanted to include it in his stable at the first opportunity.

“Your Highness William, yes, that’s mine.”

Zhuang Rui replied somewhat helplessly, although Timur had already done well enough, immediately after crossing the line, he let Chasing Wind fall to his knees to show his lack of stamina, who knew that it had still attracted the attention of so many people.

“Great, Mr. Zhuang, I would like to beg to buy this racehorse of yours, I wonder if you are willing?”

In the end, he was a young man, in front of so many people, he directly stated his intention, it seemed a bit reckless, but in fact, it was exactly William’s high point.

Than the wealth, William certainly can’t compare to the world’s richest man, but if Zhuang Rui personally agreed to sell it to him, then even Bill Gates, will not pull down his face to compete with him.

“Your Highness William, I’m really sorry, this horse is my partner, and participating in the race was a coincidence, I won’t sell him.” Zhuang Rui shook his head and repeated what he had just said to Bill Gates.

“Oh, Mr. Zhuang, I think …… you could have heard my offer first.”

William’s response was much more direct than Bill Gates’, “I’m offering 100 million pounds for the purchase of this horse, is it possible for Mr. Zhuang to consider it?”

William’s words made the people in the room other than Bill Gates and that Arabian Crown Prince, all sucked in a breath of cool air, although the people in the box, all of them were billionaires, but this figure, still made them feel shocked.

To know, before this, the world’s most expensive racehorse, is only eighty million dollars, William’s opening price, has far exceeded the world’s first horse’s value.

Even Bill Gates is also a bit moved, his previous psychological price of this horse, but is about 60 million dollars, he also did not expect the British prince even opened such a price.

For a time, the eyes of all the people in the box looked at Zhuang Rui, they all want to know, Zhuang Rui for this offer is satisfied?

Under the gaze of the crowd, Zhuang Rui slowly shook his head and said in a firm tone, “I’m sorry, Your Highness William, this …… is not a matter of money, chasing the wind is my partner, it’s not for sale.”
