As soon as he saw the horse in the photo, William couldn't take his eyes off it. This was the date red horse he wanted most.
He had read the information and knew that only a maroon or chestnut horse would have parts of its body become brighter after it sweated. Only then would it give people the illusion of "bleeding". Therefore, William had always wanted a maroon Ferghana horse as a mount.
According to the introduction, this horse was much taller and stronger than other Ferghana horses. Ferghana horses generally had a shoulder height of about 1.52 meters, but this one was 1.56 meters, which made William a little confused. "Dali, is this horse really a pure-blooded Ferghana horse?"
Seeing William's expression, Dali was happy. He knew that William would like this date red horse. He was confident that anyone who saw this Ferghana horse would like it. If it weren't for the rich man William, he would never have taken out the first golden mare and the date red horse.
In response to William's question, Dali said confidently, "Mr. Devonshire, I promise that this horse is absolutely a pure-blooded Ferghana horse. Its genealogy is very clear. We have a complete pedigree to prove that it is a pure-blooded Ferghana horse."
Dali's joke made everyone laugh. William said happily, "I like this horse. It's date red, the best color."
After closing the album and thinking about it, William patted the album and said, "Very well, I'll take all of them."
Dali was delighted when the deal was made. He had come to catch a big fish with a long line to arouse William's interest in horse racing.
Although the horses he brought were not very good on the track, they were all very beautiful. They were the most suitable horses for a novice like William.
After doing business related to horses for so many years, Dali had been in contact with many novices and knew what they were thinking. When buying a horse for the first time, they often looked at its appearance. Speed was not what they cared about most.
With a good-looking and powerful horse, it wouldn't take long for the rich newbies to yearn for the glory of the competition. In their hearts, they would want to raise a champion horse. With William's financial resources, buying a champion horse wasn't a problem at all. However, the price of a champion horse wasn't so little.
In order to introduce William, a newly minted magnate, to horse racing, which was a bottomless pit for ordinary people and a toy for the super-rich, the old fox Dali had given William the golden Hanxue as a meeting gift. Apart from the transportation fee, feeding fee, and labor fee, he didn't make any money from the golden horse at all.
They only made a small profit on the date red Hanxue. When they bought it in Turkmenistan, they had spent 550,000 pounds. They had kept it for more than three months and had tested it several times on the track. It was in good condition. The price of 780,000 pounds could only be said that they had not lost money and had come for nothing.
However, if Dali had known William's plan, he might have been disappointed. William had never thought of buying a pure-blooded English racehorse. The horse he had bought this time was only influenced by the memory of the Chinese people.
However, he was a little disappointed that he hadn't been able to buy a top-level horse. William sat on the sofa and thought silently. Why not just buy dozens of first-class horses and breed them himself?
Even if he didn't get a top-level horse, he would definitely show off on the Internet when he thought of the hundreds of Hanxue horses he had bred in the future.
When the time came, he would bring out the castle and the hundreds of Ferghana horses. Any nouveau riche would be suppressed by him. At the thought of this, William felt happy. Of course, it would be even better if he could pick up a champion horse.
Dali, who was silently calculating in his heart, said with a smile, "Mr. Devonshire, we will send these two horses to your manor from the stud farm tomorrow morning. It's my honor to serve you, Mr. Devonshire. If you have any needs about horses in the future, you can call me directly. We promise to solve any problems for you."
As soon as Dali finished speaking, William suddenly laughed, which made Dali a little confused. He looked at William blankly.
William held back his laughter and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Dali. I meant to buy all five Hanxue horses in this album. If you have any good Hanxue horses in the future, please let me know first.
"I like Hanxue horses and hope to raise dozens or hundreds of them in my manor. I'm planning to buy all the surrounding 3,000 acres of land and build a stud farm dedicated to breeding Hanxue horses. In my eyes, Hanxue horses are the most beautiful horses in the world."
"God, are you really going to build a stud farm?" Dali exclaimed, and then he was ecstatic. This news was really a pleasant surprise. A professional stud farm that could raise dozens or hundreds of horses was not something that could be solved with 10 or 20 million pounds. This was a big business. If William gave all these things to his company, Dali would be able to earn a lot of money.
Dali's company could not only make a lot of money, but also improve their company's reputation. This made Dali very excited. This was a business that could not be encountered for years or decades.
"Yes, although building a Hanxue horse farm is my idea, I want top Hanxue horses. If I can't buy them, then I'll breed them myself. I don't believe that I can't breed a top Hanxue horse by spending money to buy dozens or hundreds of first-class horses.
"As long as it can be solved with money, it's a small problem for me. Even if I have to spend money, I will buy a top Hanxue horse. Mr. Dali, I hope you can help me achieve this wish.
The standard of buying horses is not worse than the ones in this album, so the only thing to worry about is whether you can help me buy dozens of first-class Hanxue horses. If you can buy the best Hanxue horses, the price is not a problem. "
Dali did not have that luxury, but how much would a hundred first-class Hanxue horses cost? Dali knew in a few seconds that it would cost at least 30 million pounds.
The only thing that worried him was whether he could find so many good horses. However, compared to a stud farm, buying horses was just a small business.
Dali was so excited that his hands were shaking. He made up his mind to seize this opportunity. If he signed the stud farm contract, then Dali Horse Company would not have to do anything this year. This deal alone would be enough for their company to work for a year or two. Not only would their profits be guaranteed, but they would also not have to worry about William defaulting on the funds.
"No problem, Mr. Devonshire. I will help you achieve your wish. You can rest assured that we have decades of cooperation with several countries and stud farms that produce Hanxue horses. I promise that the authorities will not obstruct this deal.
"Today, I will fly to Turkmenistan in person and send my men to Polar Bear, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan to choose horses for you. At the same time, we will help you choose the design of the stud farm that has been built in the past for your reference.
If you agree, we can help you solve anything related to the stud farm. Yes, anything. "Dali was a little incoherent in the end.
William did not care about Dali's excitement. Anyone who could make a lot of money would be like this. What he cared about was the stallions and good mares. "Calm down, Dali. As long as you can fulfill my requirements, I will not consider other horse businesses for the time being. However, do Polar Bear, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan also have Hanxue horses?"
