Ever since she came into contact with horses, his mother Lena had an unusual passion for horses. Whenever she had nothing to do, she would stay at the stables and ride the golden mare to train her equestrian skills.
Or she would ride Charcoal Head to compete in the steeplechase at the training ground. Charcoal Head was the black Arabian horse called Devonshire II that Lena had bought before. William disliked the sound of Devonshire II, so he gave it the name Charcoal Head.
Not long after he stood at the side of the field and watched his mother train, the current head trainer of the stables, Neil Jordan, chuckled as he led Red Hare to William's side. "Good morning, Mr. Devonshire."
"Hello, Neil." After not seeing each other for more than 10 days, William looked at Red Hare who had become more energetic after all its internal injuries had been healed by the healing magic. He patted Red Hare's head and said, "Hi Red Hare, how have you been recently?"
Red Hare liked William's aura very much. It knew that it would be good to stay with William, so when it saw William, Red Hare was so happy that it kept snoring. After it walked to William's side, it immediately rested its head on William's shoulder.
Red Hare's closeness made William very happy. He patted Red Hare's neck and took the reins. Wearing his resting clothes, he flipped onto the horse. With a squeeze of his legs, Red Hare rushed out of the stables like the wind. One man and one horse galloped happily on the grass.
After riding the Red Hare for more than twenty minutes, William saw his mother riding Charcoal Head towards him from afar. He pulled the reins and ran to a spot not too far away from his mother. William pulled the reins tightly and made the Red Hare stop. He strolled to Charcoal Head's side. The moment he got close to Charcoal Head, the Red Hare neighed at Charcoal Head, scaring Charcoal Head into retreat.
This made Lena very unhappy. She quickly patted Charcoal Head's neck to calm it down. After a few minutes, Charcoal Head finally calmed down.
"William, look at your stupid horse. This guy is now the overlord of the horse farm. All the horses have been bullied by him."
Hearing his mother's words, William was not angry. Instead, he was very happy. However, in front of his mother, William did not dare to show it. He said perfunctorily, "I will teach Red Rabbit a lesson. Mother, let me tell you a piece of good news. Tomorrow, the people from Dale Horse Company will send 47 ferghana horses over. Our home will soon become the only ferghana horse breeding base in England."
Lena glared at William and the Red Hare. She couldn't do anything about William's indulgence of the Red Hare.
However, Lena was still very happy that there would be 47 horses of the same grade as her golden Ferghana horse arriving tomorrow. In addition to the 5 Ferghana horses in the stable, their family would soon have more than 50 Ferghana horses.
In order to take care of these horses, William spent overtime to build several stables. In the newly bought 3000 acres of land, except for the land that was especially suitable for farming, William planned to transform most of the land into pastures. He planned to build a horse farm for ferghana horses near the river.
For this reason, William fired many farmers. With the help of the old fox, Neil Jordan, although they were worried about their jobs, none of the farmers who were fired made trouble. They all quietly stayed in the castle town and waited for William to build the horse farm.
In response to the kindness and understanding of the town's residents, William simply opened the job of the horse farm to the town's residents. After recruitment, they would be trained and then tested. Those who were qualified could get an annual salary of 18,000 to 36,000 pounds. Those who were not qualified could find their own way out.
The work of the horse farm, farm, and pastures also made most of the people in the castle town work for William. After becoming the parents of most of the people, it greatly increased the prestige of the Devonshire family in the castle town.
It was said that the town now wanted to change the name of the town back to Devonshire Town. William 100% welcomed this. The town was called Devonshire Town more than 100 years ago. It was only after the decline of the Devonshire family that the name was changed.
William planned to buy as much land as possible outside of the 3000 acres that he had already bought. Then, he would hire people in the surrounding towns to work for him and indirectly control the people around him. As long as more than half of the people worked for William, he would be the unquestionable master of this area.
William didn't care about the money he earned from the land. What he wanted was influence.
.....
Lena saw that William was patronizing her again and said angrily, "Okay, I got it. You can get out of here."
William was almost choked by his mother's words. As Lena managed the castle manor and dozens of people in the horse farm, she became more and more domineering. When she saw William was not pleasing to the eye, she would not be kind at all.
Looking at his mother's disdainful look, William shook his head helplessly. "Okay, mom, I'll see you at dinner."
Pulling Red Hare's reins, William turned around. Before he could start running, he thought of something and pulled Red Hare and his mother and said, "By the way, mom, in addition to the 47 horses tomorrow, there will be more than 20 horses coming in a few days. Will our stable not have enough manpower?"
Lena's face was happy, but then she said worriedly, "Of course, the manpower will be a bit tight. The new recruits are all being trained. I will ask Da Li Horse Company to hire some people to help. But William, mom thinks that after buying these two batches of horses, we should stop. I've learned some information. Now the price of Ferghana horses has risen by more than three times. If we continue to buy, the price will definitely rise crazily. It's better to wait for a year or two and see the market."
William certainly understood this. This time, the people of Da Li Horse Company wanted to make a lot of money when William was building the horse farm. Therefore, they helped William to buy in a blitzkrieg. In the future, it would not be so easy to buy in large quantities like this time. "Okay, mom. You make the decision."
"Hmph, of course I make the decision. Aren't I in charge of these things? You'd better hurry up and find me a steward. I can't manage the matters of the castle and the stables by myself. "
William clapped his hands helplessly, "Mom, I also want to find a good steward, but it's really not that easy to find a suitable and trustworthy steward. If you think it's too troublesome, you can find a few horse farm managers and let them do all the ordinary things."
"That's a good idea. I'll go find a horse farm manager now. It's not easy to find a steward, but it's even harder to find a horse farm manager. I don't believe that with an annual salary of 120,000 pounds, I won't be able to find a good horse farm manager. Very well, let's do it this way.
Let's smash them with money. "After saying that, Lena slapped Charcoal Head's butt with her whip. Charcoal Head immediately rushed out from Red Hare's side.
This made Red Hare, who had been waiting for William's order, very unhappy. Without waiting for William's instructions, it directly carried William and chased after Charcoal Head. Within a few seconds, it had overtaken Charcoal Head and galloped towards the stables.
William not only healed all of Red Hare's internal injuries with Healing Magic, but also nourished Red Hare's body with Nature Magic from time to time. This made Red Hare's sprinting ability and physical strength stronger and stronger. In the past ten days, Red Hare could often run in 70 seconds during the 1,000-meter test.
When the original owner of Red Hare, Dali, found out, he beat his chest and stamped his feet in regret, shouting that he had made a mistake. Why couldn't Red Hare's speed even run in 80 seconds when he was in his company and in Turkmenistan?
Red Hare's speed could run in 70 seconds, coupled with its height of 1.61 meters and its whole body was maroon, making Red Hare look majestic. Such a great Hanxue really hadn't appeared for many years. Red Hare's main trainer, Neil Jordan, had mentioned to William that Red Hare was absolutely impossible to buy for less than 4 million pounds.
Thinking about how a few champion horses would come out of his manor in the future, William's heart was filled with joy.
