"A thousand horses?" Lin Dong thought to himself, could it be that this Boss Ma brought all the horses in Xiangjiang over?
In fact, the horses that Boss Ma brought were all retired racehorses.
Those that were crippled or sick.
Or those whose physical strength had deteriorated and could no longer compete.
During this period of time, Boss Ma traveled all over the world to buy these retired racehorses. He didn't know if they could be successfully strengthened like his "daughter Lisa", or if they could be saved. Boss Ma didn't care. Whether they were lame or not, he bought them all. In the major rice-exporting country, there weren't many such racehorses. Retired and crippled racehorses were worthless. When Boss Ma bought them, most of the owners gave them to him for free, and some took a symbolic fee.
It was the same everywhere in the world. Whether it was the major rice-exporting country or the United States, the owners generally couldn't bear to kill the racehorses that had served them. Seeing that this fool was willing to take over, they quickly threw the retired racehorses to him. No matter what, it was better than sending them to the slaughterhouse.
Just like that, Boss Ma collected more than 900 retired racehorses from all over the world.
He also bought more than 20 ponies in Britain.
Finally, he had collected a thousand.
At the Xiangjiang racetrack.
At this moment, there was a joke about the "Garbage King" Boss Ma.
Buying retired racehorses and then dreaming that one of these retired racehorses would have a miracle, return to the race, and win the championship? What a huge joke!
Boss Ma had also heard of this joke, but he didn't mind at all. Not only did Boss Ma not refute the rumor, but he also gave bonuses to the trainers who knew about it as hush money. When the tycoons at the Xiangjiang racetrack met, they would usually talk about Boss Ma's recent situation. For example, this kind of mocking dialogue often appeared: "I heard that the Garbage King signed up his horse for the race, what do you think?" "He loves horses, but isn't he a little obsessed with doing this? Forget it, when the race starts, I'll give him two horse positions! " "I think he won't win even if you give him ten horse positions, because his horse can't even run the whole race! Ahahaha! "
Boss Ma was already prepared for ridicule.
His beloved daughter "Lisa" was going to compete!
Next Sunday, he was going to give those tycoons a big slap in the face!
In addition to giving Lin Dong a thousand retired racehorses, he also wanted to invite him to watch the race.
"For me?" Lin Dong felt dizzy. Why did you have to give me a thousand horses? Moreover, they were retired racehorses. What was the use of these things?
"Didn't you want to build a racetrack here? There were horses to be won in the race! I don't have the money to give you a thousand good horses, but I can give you a thousand old horses. These old horses may be old and useless, but as long as you can save them, they will definitely be first-class horses with rich racing experience. Moreover, after such a huge setback, they have been given another chance. They will definitely cherish the competition and fight to the end! " Boss Ma danced with joy. "This is only the first batch. I will send more people to collect them. I estimate that there will be at least 3,000 retired horses. As long as we can save half of them, the competition here will be the most exciting horse racing competition in the world!"
"Boss Ma, have you ever thought about the cost of rescuing 3,000 retired racehorses?" Fatty Yu Feng decided to do the math for Boss Ma. "Your Lisa is a special case, so I won't talk about it. According to the cost of 10 million USD per horse, how much is 3,000 racehorses? "
"Ah!" Boss Ma had never thought about this question.
"3,000 racehorses according to the lowest cost calculation would cost 30 billion USD. Even if Lin Dong has so many genetic agents, there is no need to waste it on a large group of horses, right? Do you know how scarce the genetic agents are? How many departments in the military are reluctant to spend money to get a batch of genetic animals? " Fatty Yu Feng felt that Boss Ma's brain was full of horses. He didn't even think about how many healthy racehorses Lin Dong could sell with 30 billion USD.
"But, I really can't bear to watch them die like this." Boss Ma cried, but he still wanted to save them.
"How many people die every day in the world? Why don't you save them?" Fatty Yu Feng felt that this guy's kindness was used in the wrong place. There is nothing wrong with loving horses, but don't be too greedy. You have to distinguish between reality and reality.
"Can't you save them? You can't save all of them, but you can at least save one! "Boss Ma looked at Lin Dong with pleading eyes.
"I have to take a look first." Lin Dong thought about it carefully and suddenly felt a little tempted.
Before, he couldn't absorb the power of faith.
He wasn't in a hurry to set up a racetrack.
Now that he had successfully broken through the First Heaven of the Star River Nine Heavens Technique and created the Guardian Star, the power of gratitude and faith could never be too much. Setting up a racetrack wasn't a bad idea. After genetic experiments, these racehorses were reborn. They didn't need to be trained like ponies. They just needed to adapt and they could start racing. Moreover, their running speed was the best in the world. This way, it would definitely attract a large number of enthusiasts. Although the power of faith of gamblers wasn't pure, there was a lot of it! No matter what kind of gambler he was, he was definitely a fanatic!
The initial investment of the racetrack was huge, but the income would definitely be recovered. Plus, he could also earn the power of faith. He didn't need Cheng Mingge and the rest to run around. He had a fixed point to absorb the power of faith. How great was that!
One thousand retired racehorses were placed in a racetrack on Dong Mountain.
The racetrack was small.
It was originally for tourists to experience riding horses.
It was a little difficult to arrange for one thousand horses to break through.
But this was a problem that could be solved with money. Lin Dong didn't need to worry at all. Boss Ma had already taken care of the racetrack owner.
The horses were all good, but they were too old. Many of them were disabled. Due to poor care and the fact that racehorses were very fragile, most of these retired racehorses were sick, but to different degrees. As for the twenty ponies, they were still too young. They were only one year old. Even if they were strengthened by genetic experiments, they wouldn't be able to participate in official competitions without proper training.
"Save them. Even if it's just one, it's good enough! Many of them are meritorious horses and have won many big prizes. Some owners even gave them a chance to raise them for more than two years. When they saw that they couldn't take it anymore, they transferred them to me. " Boss Ma knew almost all of these horses. He could tell the condition of any horse he pointed at.
"I'm afraid it'll be difficult to save the disabled ones. Even if we can save them, it'll be a waste of medicine." Fatty Yu Feng felt that there was no need to save the disabled horses. If they had the time, it would be better to raise a few more ponies. At least the ponies would have a bright future.
"I only care about their potential and toughness!" Lin Dong had a different view.
"Really?" Boss Ma widened his eyes in disbelief.
"I don't care how you save them. I will prepare one thousand doses of medicine. You can ask Dean Qu and the others to inject them. If it doesn't work, then I can't do anything about it. If any of the horses have good effects, you can let them inject another dose. That should be enough. As for how to raise them, I don't know. You can discuss with the class monitor and Yu Tongtong to see who is suitable to be in charge. "Lin Dong thought for a while and made the decision to do genetic experiments.
"Even the disabled get an injection?" Fatty Yu Feng was shocked.
"The disability is actually not a big problem. Most of them are inflammation caused by muscle or bone injuries or lack of care. As long as the genes are strengthened, most of these problems will disappear. Very few of them can be recovered after Dean Qu and the others send people to do surgery. For this experiment, the important thing is not the external conditions of the horses, but the will and potential of the horses themselves. If the will is not strong, then it won't work. If the potential is not strong, then the effect won't be good. " Lin Dong gave a brief explanation before turning around to call Dean Qu. "Congratulations, Dean Qu. You have business again!"
"Which military region?" Dean Qu thought it was another military region making a big purchase.
"Nope." Lin Dong smiled and said, "It's like this. Boss Ma transported one thousand retired racehorses. These horses are old and disabled, but they still have experience. I think they can still be saved, so I want to buy them and set up a racetrack in the future. I can't finish one thousand horses by myself, so I want to ask for your help. I will provide the catalyst, and I will give you one hundred million for the strengthening medicine and labor. How about it? The money can also be deducted from the catalyst. What do you think? "
"Didn't you say we can't make genetically modified animals?" Dean Qu immediately understood. This brat wanted to be lazy and throw the matter of the injection to him.
"Racehorses don't need to go on the battlefield, so they won't face life and death threats. It's fine as long as someone can control them. Also, try to find genetic warriors to ride them in the future. That way, they will be more obedient." Lin Dong didn't think this was a problem.
"We also want to make genetically modified animals." Dean Qu said with a little embarrassment, "Also, don't talk about the strengthening medicine and labor costs. We will make it for you for free. When we do this, we can get relevant data and practical experience. How can we ask for your money! Don't talk about money, don't talk about money. No matter how much we lack money, we can't take your money! "
"Dean Qu, luckily you're not a businessman. Otherwise, you would have lost a lot of money!" Lin Dong was speechless.
"It's better not to talk about money. Last time I earned money from Yu Feng and his son, I still feel guilty and didn't sleep well for a few days!" How could Dean Qu's noble character be compared to an ordinary person? He had a true spirit of dedication!
"Then I'll give you an extra bottle of catalyst." Lin Dong also had a way to make up for it.
"I won't stand on ceremony with this!" Dean Qu could accept this.
And he was very happy.
A large group of old men and doctors and nurses rushed over to the stud farm to work. Dean Qu and the others didn't want money, but the doctors and nurses' fees couldn't be reduced. However, with a nouveau riche like Fatty Yu Feng around, no one would be disappointed. Elder Yan and An Old Fox also ran over. Their eyes were filled with greed, and they quietly asked Lin Dong, "How about sharing a hundred horses with us? You have a thousand horses, so you don't care about a hundred horses! "
Lin Dong was very curious, "This is a horse race. Don't you understand what horse race means?"
Elder Yan blinked his small eyes, "Aren't they fast?"
Lin Dong nodded, but then he waved his hands and said, "Horse race can look good, but it's useless. If it's on the battlefield, this horse race is useless! First, they are spoiled and can't take hardship. If they eat a little, they will become like this. On the battlefield, they will be given oats, beans, eggs, and sugar cubes? They also don't have the disease resistance of ordinary horses. Second, they are too big and can't bear the weight, so they are not suitable for riding and killing. If they hear gunshots on the battlefield, it would be strange if they didn't turn around and run away. Third, and also the most fatal point, is that they have no endurance. If a horse race is given the flattest sand and grass, it can run a few thousand meters or two to three thousand meters for a short distance, but if it runs for a longer time, like half an hour, it will not be as good as an ordinary horse! "
An Old Fox was stunned. The horse race was tall and mighty, and they were greedy for it, but they forgot that it had this drawback.
Lin Dong quietly lowered his voice, "If you really want to, find some horses that look like trash. Those horses are the real soldiers on the battlefield. Not only can they take hardship, but they can also resist injuries and injuries. They can run for a long time, and they have a gentle temper. They don't look good. You should choose genetic warriors, not handsome guys! Besides, their genes have evolved, and they will become stronger. "
When he said this, the two old men nodded. It really didn't matter if they were ugly.
When choosing spies, they still had to choose those with ordinary looks!
Horses are used to carry people for running, not to participate in dressage competitions in the Olympics. Why do they need to be beautiful?!
"Are there any cavalry in the country?" Lin Dong was a little curious. Cavalry was already outdated. Nowadays, there were cars and tanks. Why were they still mentioning this?
"If not, we can set up one! Although the cavalry has left the army, there are still many places that cars can't go, such as jungles and mountains. Helicopters are also not omnipotent. At the same time, it can easily attract the attention of the enemy. So, if there are horses or genetically modified animals, then the lives of the soldiers will be more secure, and the marching speed will be faster. " Elder Yan felt that there was no need for a large scale cavalry unit, but special forces could be used in battles. Unfortunately, there were no suitable horses. Now, if they could be used in battle, their combat power would definitely soar.
"Let's see the effect of five horses first, okay?" Although An Old Fox had money, he was very smart. He wouldn't release the eagle until he saw the rabbit.
"Sure, but you have to send someone over to help me set up a horse racing track." Lin Dong stated his conditions.
"Let's have a happy cooperation." The two old men were happy.
We may lack everything, but we don't lack people!
It was too easy to get people to do things!
