Shortly after arriving in Algiers, Stuart received a telegram from Laura from the United States. The Olympics were over, and so was the vacation for them, so she took her children back to the United States aboard the William.
The well-behaved little Andy wrote in the telegram: "Dad, we are home! Come back soon, let's go horseback riding together! By the way, my mother said that there is an animal called a camel in Africa, which has a hill on its back, which is very cute, can you bring me one back? β
"This guy!"
Situ Nan couldn't help but look at it, handed the telegram to He Xiangu, and said with a smile: "You can fulfill this guy's wish." I heard that the horses here are good, so I have the opportunity to buy some as well. β
"Okay, young master. Mr. Sinclair has a few Arabian horses at home, why don't you try it out for him? He Xiangu instigated Situ Nandao.
Situ Nan nodded, they lived in Sinclair's house, and were reminded by He Xiangu, and they came to Sinclair's stable after a while.
I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it!
Good guy, in the neat and spacious stable, more than a dozen handsome BMWs jumped into Situ Nan's sight, not tall, with a beautiful physique, and they liked it from a distance.
"Arabian horses? Purebred? Situ Nan asked the breeder next to him, Sinclair also inherited the original owner's BMW and the breeder when he bought the manor.
"Yes! Mr! Beautiful, intelligent, brave, resolute and romantic, this is the best horse in the world! The white-robed keeper said proudly, his rough hand caressing the horse's clean chestnut color. There is indescribable love.
The Arabian horse is the pride of the Arabs, and is known as the world's three largest thoroughbred horses, along with the Akhal-Teke horse and the British horse.
The European powers brought the Arabian horse to the world, especially the British, who introduced the Arabian horse to the United States, Canada, Australia, South Africa and other places, before the automobile age came, from London to New York, with the sound of pimple hooves on the streets, the figure of the Arabian horse flashed. As for its use on the battlefield, not to mention.
The breeder was a dedicated and professional man when it came to his beloved Arabian horses. He was excited, seeing that Situ Nan seemed to be very interested, and he also told the exploits of their family in raising horses for several generations.
This guy's English is a little special, Situ Nan listened a little hard, probably knew that this guy was an Egyptian, had been to England to work as a horse breeder, learned English, and even went to India.
After the bankruptcy of the previous employer. Sinclair was left with a palatial mansion with a dozen BMWs and dedicated breeders.
Situ Nan also has a lot of horses at home in Los Angeles, one of which is still a legendary sweaty BMW, but raising horses is just a pastime, and after satisfying the vanity of the rich, he usually doesn't pay much attention to it.
Listen carefully to this breeder. He gained a lot of knowledge and a deeper impression of Arabian horses.
"Let's go out for a ride! I'm interested in your story, Mr. Mamati. Situ Nan nodded and smiled at the keeper.
After changing his clothes, under the guidance of Ma Mati, Situ Nan chose a chestnut and docile mare. It is said that the most prized of these horses, the absolute purebred Arabian mare.
Most of them were about one and a half meters, Situ Nan gestured, about to his chest and abdomen, jumped slightly, and jumped on the horse's back.
"That's a cool move!" Mamati praised.
I saw Situ Nan riding steadily on horseback. With a familiar look, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, for fear of hurting this distinguished guest.
After talking, he had a good impression of this young distinguished guest from the United States, his attitude was sincere, there was no arrogance, and he was much better than the old-fashioned and mean set of the British master he was familiar with.
Horseback riding in the African savannah was the first time, and Algiers was a trading port. There are few chimneys, almost no industry, out of the city, the primitive African savannah breath comes to the face, Situ Nan's wild heart is stimulated, galloping horses, riding the dust!
This action frightened several bodyguards behind him, and they glared fiercely at Mamati and immediately chased after him.
"Good fellows! It's almost time to catch up with my sweaty BMW at home! Situ Nan stroked the horse's back, he was already sweating profusely, but the BMW under his crotch was only slightly wet, and the potential of his body had not been fully released.
As if sensing Situ Nan's praise, the horse raised his head and let out a smug neigh.
Situ Nan was even happier when he saw this, and thought to himself, could this guy be human?!
"Do you want to follow me? If so, just scream! "Situ Nan said to the horse.
The horse really barked, and Situ Nan laughed when he heard it, and he was determined to rob Sinclair's horse when he saw that he was happy.
One person and one horse believe in the reins, it is rare to enjoy the ambition of the North African grassland, and Situ Nan has a kind of comfort of "being in the cage for a long time and returning to nature".
No, Mamati and his bodyguards caught up, looking at their somewhat panting appearance, Situ Nan was a little proud.
"Young master, you were too careless, what if you meet a gangster?" He Xiangu walked last, and as soon as she came up, she unceremoniously criticized Situ Nan, and she was the only one who dared to do so.
"Yes, yes, not next time!"
Seeing her tired look, Situ Nan couldn't bear it, so he got off the horse and picked her up, and the two rode together to coax the woman over.
"You know what? There is a word called horse, you are my horse, good horse! β
Situ Nan leaned into He Xiangu's ear and smiled, holding this woman in his arms.
"You're only a horse!"
In this regard, his bodyguards were used to it, and only Ma Mamati and Sun Liren, who returned to China with Situ Nan, were a little surprised.
"Arabian horses are good horses, do you think the introduction of South China and China will play a big role? I mean military use? β
Situ Nan asked Sun Liren.
Economically, horses are an expensive resource, and if they are used for transportation, as transportation improves, horses are far less cost-effective than a tractor! In the big cities of the United States, horse-drawn carriages are becoming more and more rare.
"Of course! Because of the prevalence of machine guns, the role of cavalry has decreased significantly, but it still plays a considerable role in communication and transportation in the army. Even the US Army retains a considerable number of horses"
Sun Liren replied.
"Field battles, transporting ammunition, pulling artillery, communication orders, mounts of senior generals. Is that so? Situ Nan immediately realized that after thinking about it carefully, the transportation role of horses in the military should not be underestimated.
Sun Liren nodded, looked at the Arabian horse that Situ Nan sat down, and said: "The British and American armies have introduced a large number of Arabian horses, and even Japan has introduced foreign stallions. Improve the quality of military horses.
In the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese cavalry defeated the Russian Cossack corps and made a big show! Therefore, in the future Chinese battlefield, horses have played an important role. β
"That's right, it's just that the climate in South China and southern China is hot, I'm afraid it's not easy to raise horses!"
Situ Nan shook his head with some regret, Ma was in the era of hot firearms. began to gradually withdraw from the battlefield, so Situ Nan was not very optimistic about Sun Liren's construction, and he preferred to invest in road transportation and make cars.
"Why don't you ask Mr. Mamati? I remember, Nanhua seems to have some horses too! He Xiangu interjected.
"Mamati, sir. What do you think? Situ Nan turned to Mamati beside him, just now they spoke Chinese, Mamati couldn't understand, so he repeated it in English.
"Nanhua?" Mamati was stunned, as if he had heard of this country. After seeing Situ Nan and them, he thought that these distinguished guests turned out to be Chinese, and at first he thought they were Japanese?
"Of course, it's not a problem! Our great Arabian horses were bred from the Arabian desert, where the heat gave them a stoic character. That's not a problem at all! β
Mamati couldn't help but look up proudly.
"Really? Doesn't it mean that the south is hot and can't keep war horses? Situ Nan was a little puzzled. The scorching sun shone on his face, and it was a little painful, but looking at the horse under his crotch, it didn't look like it was not suitable for hot weather.
"The weather shouldn't be a problem, but it's hard to provide good quality pasture in farming areas, and pastures take up a lot of land??????"
Sun Liren explained.
Hearing him say this, Situ Nan probably understood that in the final analysis, it was a matter of land and population. How come my ancestors couldn't "enclosure" like the British?
Remembering the enclosure is reminiscent. The bloody Eight Banners of history flashed through his mind, he shook his head, brushed off those unpleasant things, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Mamati, in view of your achievements in raising horses, if someone hires you to work in the East and raise a lot of horses, would you be willing?" The treatment will definitely make you satisfied. β
Ma Mati's eyes lit up, and when he heard that the treatment satisfied him, he immediately believed it, not doubting Situ Nan's guarantee at all.
After thinking for a moment, he smiled and nodded.
Seeing that Mamati agreed, Situ Nan smiled slightly: "Give you a JianyΓ¬, it is best to learn Chinese, that will bring people a lot of convenience in the new world." β
"What do you like about my BMW?"
"The horse?"
"Oh my God! That's my favorite! β
Sinclair clutched his chest, his face was painful, and when he came back at night, he felt bad when he heard that Situ Nan went out to ride a horse, but he didn't expect that this greedy guy was really going to attack the respected Mr. Sinclair.
"I'll make it up to you, my friend! You don't know, from the first time I saw her, I fell in love with her so much that I couldn't help myself. β
Situ Nan looked at Sinclair sincerely and smiled in his heart.
"Hell!"
Sinclair was very angry at Situ Nan for robbing his BMW, he glared at Situ Nan angrily, and scolded in his heart, when he was in the United States, he was like this, this guy took away the Sinclair oil company he created, and now he is again-
"Don't be so sad, I'll use Akhal-Tekin!" Situ Nan said with a smile.
Akhal-Teke horse is also a sweat-blooded BMW, with a stronger physique, a strong personality, and more gentlemen! Many big men in ancient and modern China and foreign countries have ridden this kind of horse, and it is known as the mount of the emperor.
"That's pretty much it!"
Listening to Situ Nan's conditions, Sinclair replied somewhat reluctantly, but he happily accepted the deal and agreed that Mamati would accept Situ Nan's employment.
In addition to Sinclair's dozen Arabian horses, he also generously provided more than a dozen English horses and Akhal-Teke horses for him to breed new horse breeds.
Mamati, a breeder who has been wandering for more than ten years, is very impressed, and he has always hoped to have the opportunity to crossbreed a better BMW with two noble horses, Arabian horses and Akhal Tekin.
The thought of being able to engage in a great cause swelled up with infinite passion and became a glorious Bimawen!
