Chapter 5 Fifty Dollars Quarter Horse
Stop the bleeding, disinfect, put on the tape, rest for a while Li Han relieved himself, drilled his heart and felt distressed Li Han was a little dizzy, got up after resting, poured a glass of milk and sat down anew, and said to himself. "Haven't you been too tired lately, just scratching such a small point, such a big reaction, it seems that you will exercise more in the future. ”
After Li Han drank the milk in the cup, he remembered that his coat might be stained with blood and needed to be dealt with, otherwise it would be a little troublesome, who knew how many times he looked through it, but he didn't see a little blood. Li Han muttered secretly in his heart, what is going on. "What the hell. Complaining casually, Li Han took out the meteorite fragments in his pocket, looked through them, and was a little puzzled.
"No, why did the meteorite fragments change color?" The original charcoal black fragments were now fluorescent, Li Han rubbed his eyes vigorously, it was rare to drink too much, Li Han couldn't believe it. "I must have been stimulated by Chris today and drank two more glasses of dazzle. ”
Li Han complained a few words, decisively chose to go back to the bedroom to sleep, casually threw the meteorite fragments aside, turned off the lights, Li Han drank a few more glasses at night and was a little dizzy, this will make his head dizzy, and it is inevitable that what he sees in front of him is an illusion.
Not long after Li Han fell asleep, the quietly glowing fragments suddenly shone brightly, and the fragments flowed like mercury, and the fluorescence flashed blood red with the sound of machinery. ""Host selection, Milky Way 40988 year, Azure Star, Li Han, blood type O, gene perfection forty-five, all-powerful Shennong system matching ten percent, energy five percent, open the primary Shennong system. Vaguely, a white space appeared, pieces of white sand, the dry spring in the middle gradually moistened, a little water droplets came out, and the side was scattered like glass-like fragments, the space did not appear for a long time, and disappeared in just a few seconds, as if it did not appear, this qiē, the sleeping Li Han did not know at all, Li Han did not know why, he was particularly tired and fell asleep.
Until the next day, Li Han was woken up by the ringing of the phone, rubbed his confused eyes, glanced at the number, and picked up the receiver. "Power, it's so early, is there something wrong?" "Morning?Han, it's noon now, it's rare that you've been sleeping until now, God, Han, have you been infected by Black Bam?"
Black Bam is a breeding pig, and usually breeds except for sleeping.
"Noon?" Li Han looked up at the wall clock, sure enough, it was almost twelve o'clock, could it be that he slept for sixteen hours, it was impossible, Li Han was a little dizzy, it was difficult to drink a barrel of beer yesterday. "Power, I'm sorry I couldn't send Harley today. Li Han remembered that Hallie was going to Seattle early this morning, and said a little embarrassed, as if he felt lucky not to see Hallie and Chris happy together.
"Han, I kind of hate Chris, damn it, did Hallie wear inkblots?" Weili was a little angry, of course it wasn't because of Li Han, it was mostly Chris, he was too proud, and Weili didn't like it a little. "Oh, shit, damn Chris, Han, there's good news that the Little Straw Hat Farm has a few foals for sale. ”
"God forbid, Mighty, come back, I invite you to drink. "Li Han didn't expect the news to come so soon, last night Li Han said that he wanted to buy a foal, and today he has a letter. Li Han hung up the phone, washed his face, tidied up, didn't dare to delay time, drove a pickup truck to the Little Flower Hat Farm, bought a hamburger and a cup of coffee on the way, and solved the lunch problem. Unfortunately, it was still a step late to arrive at Flowerhat's farm, and the foals were already sold.
But Mixing Town is surrounded by farms, planting barley and sugar beet, except for a few large and medium-sized farms in Xiaowang Farm, which have a large number of livestock, most of them only have a few farms that will raise horses, of course, as long as there is money to it, it is not impossible to buy it, but Li Han does not have much money in his hand, only enough to buy a foal, as for adult horses, it is not enough at all, unless the purchase is inferior. Li Han shook his head with a disappointed face, a little unrelenting.
Li Han approached Old Monroe and wanted to ask if there were no foals for sale. "Hank, I'm sorry I can't help you. "It's all right, Monroe, I'm late, what a pretty little one. Li Han looked at the three foals in front of him that had been returned to the buyer, and sighed with some regret.
It was already afternoon when Li Han returned to the town, and he had made an appointment with Weili to go to another farm. "Hell, Hell, Chris actually bought Uncle Marbury's foal yesterday, and that's the prettiest little guy in Ke Mi Xing. "Willy, Uncle Marbury is the best Quarter horse to bring, I don't have that much money. ”
Li Han told the truth, a good quart costs at least a few thousand dollars, and Li Han doesn't have so much money. "It's a shame that Uncle Marbury has a championship pedigree for Quad. Li Han felt a little regretful in his heart, but thinking about his own situation, he shook his head with regret, and there was no other way.
"Get in the car, the market may have what I need. "Li Han is going to go to the market, which is only half an hour away from the town. As soon as Willy got in the car, he didn't stop complaining about Hallie, Chris, I really don't know what Chris did, provoking Willy.
Lee Han had to change the subject, chatting about Sunday's football game and the barbecue party, which diverted Willy's attention. A smile appeared at the corner of Li Han's mouth, most of the dishes in Chinese food Americans don't like to eat, especially salty and spicy, they don't like it even more, there is no way to eat differently, the United States mostly likes to have a light taste, adding salt is only half of Chinese food, or even not adding, not adding monosodium glutamate, preferring animal oil, and not liking oil smoke, unlike Chinese food fired in high fire, many times like raw food, no interest in soy products.
However, barbecue and sweet and sour meat, barbecue, fried meat and the like are more popular, Li Han's barbecue skills are the most famous in Kemixing Town, every time Li Han has a party, the indispensable thing is barbecue. Loyal fans of Weili and Xiaoqi Li Han, when Weili was talking about the barbecue party, the car approached the livestock market and parked the pickup truck. Li Han and Weili walked into the market, where there are mostly cattle and sheep, not many horses, after all, it is not a big market, most of the cattle and sheep are raised around, in the past two years, Americans seem to recognize that eating red meat is not too good for the body, many people choose to eat red meat once a week, and more people gradually begin to choose white meat.
"Willy, let's go take a look. Li Han saw a few white people talking around the stable in front of him, pointing to the red quartter horse in the stable from time to time, Weili nodded and walked over with Li Han. "Oh God, Han, my eyes are spent, a hundred dollar quart. ”
Weili was surprised, and shouted loudly, I couldn't believe it, Li Han was a little stunned, when was the value of quart so cheap, the quart in front of him had a very good bloodline, even Li Han, who didn't know much about horses, could see it at a glance, but the coat color was a little dull, and the spirit didn't seem to be very good, Li Han's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Han. ”
"Power, look at it again. "Li Han is not interested in pie falling from the sky, this Carter may have some problems, Li Han will not buy it impulsively before he knows the problem, even if it is cheap. Wei Wei was a little regretful, Li Han shook his head with a smile and pointed to a few middle-aged white people who were discussing this horse, these were experienced cowboys or small farmers like Li Han, sure enough, this horse really had a problem, suffering from a strange gastrointestinal disease, and the owner spent thousands of dollars to treat it.
It's only for sale, a hundred dollars, it's completely like it's half sold and half given, just to buy a terminally ill Quart, even if it's a hundred dollars, not many people want to give it. "It's a shame. Weili regretfully spread his hands at Li Han.
"It's okay, maybe, there will be a miracle. Li Han was a little tempted, it was too cheap, maybe the owner of the horse didn't plan to sell it at all, but he didn't want to see his beloved horse die in front of him. "Sir, fifty dollars, I bought it. Li Han found the owner of the horse and said, fifty dollars, Li Han is willing to give it a try, maybe there is a miracle, even if he loses, a horse skin is enough to make up for part of his loss.
"God, Han, this is a sick horse. "Fifty dollars, buying a dead horse, even if it's cheap, it's a bit of a loss. "Fifty dollars? The middle-aged white man glanced at the red quarthorse in the stable and nodded slightly.
Li Han paid fifty dollars to lead the horse out of the market, and the power was a little puzzled. "Han, do you have a way to cure this quart?" "Oh, no, fifty dollars, maybe a bet." Li Han smiled and said, fifty dollars.
Sick horses, don't people want to buy them for fear that other livestock will be infected with this strange gastrointestinal disease, Li Han doesn't care. When he went back, Weili drove the pickup, Li Han held the jujube red quart, only the name, Li Han felt that there was no need to get up now, maybe there was a miracle when it happened.
Back in the town, Weili had already publicized Li Han's purchase of a sick horse, and many people couldn't believe that Li Han was a cautious and cautious person, how could he do such a stupid thing. But when they really saw Li Han coming back with a sick horse, everyone shook their heads, this Chinese is crazy, and even many acquaintances who raise livestock at home avoid Li Han far away, for fear of bringing illness to the livestock at home. Lee Han had already asked Carter's previous owner, and it didn't seem to be contagious, but Lee Han did a test anyway, and it cost thirty dollars for the whole thing.
