Chapter 75 The weather is cold, the unscrupulous tabloids should disappear

The match between Hell King and Palace Music caused a sensation in a small area. The horse racing magazine reported the match in a small corner. Although it did not attract much attention, there were still keen horse fans who paid attention to it. People kept asking about Hell King's situation.

In the professional horse racing circle, this incident caused quite a stir. Compared with those horse fans outside, people in the industry know the strength of Palace Music better. In this case, Hell King turned the tables and defeated Palace Music, which also showed that this horse has extraordinary potential.

The wind rises from the tip of the green duckweed, and the waves are formed between the tiny waves. Such a Hell King, who has just shown his strength, is enough to make people look sideways.

Ye Tianhui received inquiries from various sources, all wanting to know more about the Hell King. Some even proposed to buy the Hell King, and some expressed their desire to cooperate.

Ye Tianhui naturally rejected all of them.

At the Ye family, Master Ye was naturally very pleased to know about this. He set a sumptuous dinner that day, and the whole family gathered together.

He laughed heartily and praised Ye Tianhui's vision: "With Tianhui, we have great hope in this horse racing season!"

He sighed with satisfaction: "We have several opponents this time. In addition to the Meng family, the Zhou family can also be considered our opponent. The Ning family's daughter-in-law Zhou Wanlan is not an ordinary person. She has raised a lot of horses. The last time I met her father-in-law, wasn't he quite proud? He thought that our horses were gathered together temporarily and it was difficult to achieve good results. He even wanted to make plans for me!"

He smiled very contentedly: "This time the King of Hell defeated their Palace music, it can be regarded as a small relief for us. You don’t know the look in old man Ning’s eyes today. He actually asked me about it. He was puzzled! My other old friends were also puzzled, saying how could such a horse suddenly rise up! I told them that my granddaughter is amazing, my granddaughter is capable!" After hearing this,

the others naturally complimented her and thought that Ye Tianhui was good.

Ye Lizhen also said from the side: "Tianhui does have some vision. This horse was so naughty and unruly. It is not easy for it to beat Palace music now."

Old Master Ye: "Yes, that Palace music is the horse they have high hopes for. That horse is really temperamental and competitive. I heard--"

He smiled with pride: "After the horse lost, it was said that there were some psychological problems."

Psychological problems?

Everyone was puzzled and looked over in surprise.

Master Ye smiled and sighed: "It is said that after returning, his appetite has been poor, he can't eat grass and fodder, and he feels uncomfortable when taking a bath. The worst thing is that he refuses to come out for morning exercises. When he hears the sound of horse hooves, he looks around and looks around as if he is on guard against something."

Everyone: "..."

Speechless for a moment.

Is there such a horse?

Master Ye shook his head helplessly: "It must be too much psychological trauma."

In fact, Ye Tianhui has also heard some news about this. He heard that since Palace Music was defeated by the King of Hell, it has been in a bad state. It can't hear the sound of horse hooves, can't look at other horses, and keeps kicking and paddling, and looking around like a thief.

According to the trainer's analysis, the horse was probably too shocked to tolerate the existence of a horse like the Hell King. The trainer had no choice but to quickly move it to another stable. After it

was moved to the new stable, it was told desperately that the Hell King was not there and that they were no longer together. Only then did Palace Music's situation improve a little.

Everyone was amazed. Ye Wenbin frowned, "This horse has a strong sense of self-esteem."

Ye Wenjing also said, "It became like this after losing. This horse is useless!"

Others agreed. Old Master Ye even belittled it, thinking that Palace Music was not good enough and that his own Hell King was good enough. He also praised Ye Tianhui.

Ye Wenyong also said from the side: "Tianhui picked the King of Hell. We were not very optimistic about it at first. After all, this horse is wild and difficult to tame. But we didn't expect that she could actually transform the King of Hell. If this horse continues to perform steadily, it will definitely win this season."

When Ye Lizhen heard this, he glanced at his son.

Ye Wenyong looked a little strange, but he didn't look back at his father.

Ye Wenyin had been keeping her head down and silent, but at this time she finally raised her eyes and looked at them.

Ye Tianhui naturally noticed this subtlety from the side. She thought about it for a while and understood it more or less.

She forced Ye Wenyin that time, but deliberately didn't release Feng Suqin. It was obvious that Ye Wenyin was also forced to feel uncomfortable.

Ye Wenyin has been very quiet recently. I don't know what she is brewing, but it seems that she is related to Ye Lizhen.

It is impossible for her to get away from Ye Lizhen. You should know that she wanted to drive herself out of Hong Kong before, and the methods she used were extremely stupid.

To put it bluntly, a rich lady may seem glamorous, but in fact, the financial resources she can use are limited. After all, she is only 18 years old and has just returned from studying abroad.

It is estimated that she has no way to find a gangster to do something bad, so she can only rely on Ye Lizhen.

But it seems that Ye Wenyong is a smart man. He may try to persuade Ye Lizhen to give up the internal struggle.

After all, the most important thing for the current situation is to unite against the outside world. What the Ye family should do most is to defeat the Meng family together, enter the Jockey Club, gain a firm foothold in the horse racing world, and lead the next reclamation project, so as to maximize the family's interests. If they

engage in internal fighting, they will only be laughed at by outsiders.

However, the father and son should have some differences.

And Ye Wenyin is jumping around here, naturally to instigate Ye Lizhen and find a way to make Ye Lizhen deal with him.

So these three people currently have their own goals, which is also quite interesting.

************

The Hong Kong Jockey Club announced the schedule and prize money for this season. The news was published on television and in related newspapers. Soon, almost everyone on the streets of Hong Kong had a copy. The middle-aged uncles on the roadside and the uncles watching the stalls all started talking about the "Horse Classic" newspapers, and some started asking each other for tips.

Ye Tianhui naturally got the schedule as soon as possible, and asked Assistant Yang, Sun Jiajing, Lao Zhou, and jockeys Lin Jianquan and Chen Zongwan to come over to discuss countermeasures.

The prize money this time was indeed greatly increased. The total prize money for the international Grade 1 race was as high as 8 million Hong Kong dollars. In addition to the Grade 1 race, the prize money for the Grade 2 and Grade 3 races was also greatly increased.

As for the trials, the top three prizes in each trial are HK$200,000, HK$150,000 and HK$100,000 respectively.

In short, as long as you sign up and participate in the competition, in any trial, ten horses, as long as you can run in the top three, you can get a minimum prize of HK$100,000.

What does HK$100,000 mean? The workers who work hard carrying sacks at the dock, grunting and sticking their butts out, work for a month, sweating and breaking into eight pieces, and earn 2,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Women at home sew and mend clothes for others, and work hard to supplement the family income, and may earn 810,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the 3,000 Hong Kong dollars is the bread and butter of the family.

But now, if a horse is pulled over and ranks in the top three out of ten horses, defeating seven horses, it can directly get a bonus of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is equivalent to a worker's job for five years!

The key is that this is just a random selection race.

This is the charm of horse racing, and this is the hope of getting rich quickly.

Ye Tianhui continued to read on. In addition to this kind of selection race, there are also some brand-sponsored races, such as the Arcana race sponsored by the French Arcana Auction, where the top five races share one million Hong Kong dollars. There are also well-known Hong Kong families, such as the Gu family, the Zhou family, the Meng family, and of course the Ye family, all of which sponsor some special races, with a prize of about 500,000 Hong Kong dollars.

There are other categories, such as mud races, grass races, sand races, etc., as well as twilight races, night races, and of course age-based races, all with prize money.

It seems that the Jockey Club has invested heavily this time, and it must set off a craze!

Ye Tianhui took a few people to study the schedule together. As she looked at it, she sighed: "Raising horses for a thousand days, using them in one moment, it's time for us to get our money back. If we just break in and fight, that's money!"

Lin Jianquan and Chen Zongwan, two young men, stared at the schedule for a long time.

They have never had any experience in big competitions. They are all newcomers. When they first saw the schedule printed with lead letters, the prize money of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars was like stepping into another world.

A world where you can get huge wealth by just stretching out your hand.

Only then will you understand why, in the Chongzai industry, there are still people rushing in.

Because of the money, because of the dream of getting rich overnight!

Because you only need to run a race to win glory and flowers, and you can instantly become the focus of the crowd and be admired and praised.

Chongzai's path is the most difficult in the world, but also the most convenient way to victory.

Ye Tianhui naturally noticed the light and desire in Lin Jianquan and Chen Zongwan's eyes.

She was also very satisfied with this.

A person must have greed, or desire, so that he can have motivation and fighting spirit.

The racecourse is a battlefield. There is no comfort here. You must fight to the utmost like a lone wolf trying to survive in the wild. You must want to win.

She likes the enthusiasm of young people holding their knives tightly.

She smiled and said, "Everyone, please feel free to raise any ideas you have."

The first person to speak was Sun Jiajing. After all, he had a lot of experience and had been in this business for a long time.

He analyzed the situation of several of his horses, and finally said: "Miss Ye, in my understanding, we not only want to win the prize, but also need to gain a reputation. If we want to gain a reputation, then of course we have to grab the first place, and win the most talked-about and eye-catching one!"

Ye Tianhui nodded: "Yes."

Sun Jiajing: "Then there is a competition, we are determined to win."

After he said this, everyone lowered their eyes and looked at the schedule. Almost everyone set their sights on the race on the opening day.

You know, the opening day of the Hong Kong horse racing season is also a grand festival. The chief executive will come to preside over the opening ceremony, and all kinds of news media will come. There will be various programs on site, including the appearance of racehorses at the exhibition, watching the lion awakening performance, and the officiating guests performing eye-dotting and gong-beating ceremonies.

On that day, in addition to inviting horse racing fans to personally ring the bronze gong to welcome good luck, there will also be bronze gongs set up in various places in the venue, and horse racing fans can hit the bronze gongs at will to wish for a good omen for the new horse racing season.

Such a lively opening day naturally has to arrange the final gimmick of the race to attract attention.

According to the schedule of this race, there will be a big show on the opening day, with three international Grade 1 races arranged.

These three international Grade 1 races are naturally one of the highlights of the entire season.

You should know that throughout the season, all participating horses have to fight for the final qualification. There are many ways to get this final qualification, and the international Grade 1 race on the opening day is the most convenient way. In

these three international Grade 1 races, each of the twelve horses will be selected to take the first place in the final.

In other words, as long as you win the first place on the opening day, you can enter the finals easily throughout the season.

This is naturally what all horse owners are looking forward to. The quota that others have to work hard to win can be obtained directly on the opening day!

In addition to the starting position in the final, you can also get a generous bonus.

Ye Tianhui saw that if she could win the first place in the Grade 1 race on the opening day, she would get a prize of 1.8 million Hong Kong dollars!

How could this not make people fascinated.

1.8 million Hong Kong dollars!

Everyone raised their eyes, six people, six pairs of eyes, all lit up.

If she could win the first place in the international Grade 1 race on the opening day, it would instantly become the hot spot of this season and the focus of horse fans!

And she could win 1.8 million Hong Kong dollars in one go!

The atmosphere of eager anticipation spread silently in the conference room.

Finally, Ye Tianhui finally spoke: "There are only 36 places in Hong Kong for the international Grade 1 race on the opening day. We should be able to fight for one place."

As soon as this was said, everyone's eyes quickly exchanged.

Hell King is a rising star. It does not have enough points to qualify for this international Grade 1 race. So the only choices they can make are Black Rose and Light.

If they only have one spot, then only one horse can compete in the international Grade 1 race on the opening day.

The choice between the two horses is the choice between Chen Zongwan and Lin Jianquan.

Both young people are excellent and are training hard. They have already exerted their potential to the extreme.

But there is only one chance. Who should it be given to?

Ye Tianhui felt the gazes of Chen Zongwan and Lin Jianquan. Obviously, both of them were looking at her.

She ordered, "Brother Sun, Lao Zhou, you two should discuss and see which one of Black Rose and Light Cangguang is more likely to participate."

Sun Jiajing was silent for a moment, and said, "Okay, we also need to study the subsequent schedule and make reasonable arrangements for these two horses before we can make a decision."

Ye Tianhui nodded.

**********

What no one in the Gu family expected was that Gu Shizhang would continue to stay in the Gu family.

You know, since he was 20 years old, his temperament has become more and more erratic, and he rarely lives in the Gu family, which makes the children of the Gu family more cautious and at the same time flattering him everywhere.

However, Gu Shizhang still looks cold and indifferent. He used to stay in his room and only went out occasionally to swim, run and play ball.

The Gu family's property was quite large, and it had all kinds of recreational and sports facilities, such as a swimming pool, a gym, and a bowling alley. Several of the Gu family's children would play at home. On this day, Gu Shizhang was also playing tennis here, accompanied by several nephews and nieces.

Gu Shizhang's tennis skills were very good, and his movements were chic and leisurely, which attracted the cheers of several nephews and nieces.

At this time, Gu Zhihan suddenly remembered Ye Tianhui, and he sighed softly: "Miss Tianhui of the Ye family, your tennis skills are really amazing. I have never seen a woman who can play tennis so beautifully!"

It turned out to be the woman he had set his eyes on.

When he said this, everyone agreed, and they all mentioned the various things Ye Tianhui did that day, and they naturally praised her.

Gu Zhiming was also there. He smiled when he heard this and said, "She is more than just a good tennis player. She is well-informed, well-versed in history and literature. She has a lot of insights into horse racing. We talked about it for a long time that day."

Gu Zhihan was immediately jealous when he heard this: "She only talked to you for a few minutes because of horse racing, but you act like you know her very well. What's the point of talking about this?"

Gu Zhiming raised his eyebrows. She glanced at Gu Zhihan and said, "I was just chatting for a few minutes. What's the problem? Why do you talk like that?"

Gu Zhihan sneered, "Don't worry, she doesn't like you!"

Gu Zhiming couldn't help but laugh when he heard this and looked at Gu Zhihan. He didn't have any other thoughts about Ye Tianhui. After all, they didn't have much contact, and now he just admired her purely. However, Gu Zhihan's words inevitably aroused his rebelliousness.

He then said coldly: "Who said that others look down on me? At least we have the same hobby. As long as we get in touch more in the future, there will always be a chance. I told her about the history of horse racing at that time, and she listened with great interest. She also said that she would treat me to a meal in the future if there is a chance."

He smiled and said: "This is also a good start, right?"

Gu Zhihan narrowed his eyes immediately after hearing this: "What do you mean?"

While the two were arguing, Gu Shizhang was drinking a drink.

He was drinking Coke, ice-cold Coke.

He had never drunk this kind of drink before Ye Tianhui. He didn't like the smell of this drink. He thought it was a bit strong. He hadn't tried it, but he didn't like it at first sight.

But now, he slowly tasted this Coke and actually felt that it tasted really good.

Faintly, this is the smell of Ye Tianhui.

He couldn't help but think of the kiss in the hotel that day, and recalled her reaction at that time.

He knew that she was obviously intoxicated and liked it.

But she said unpleasant words to him in the end.

She has a stubborn personality, she will not tolerate soft words but hard words, and she is determined not to admit defeat.

She is like this. She has done something wrong, but she refuses to admit her mistakes.

If she had just said sorry to him, he would be very upset, but that would be it.

He would not be really angry with her.

Now she is even making a fuss about breaking up with him.

While thinking about this, the cool breeze blew, and the cold Coke went down his throat, and he actually felt a little indescribable melancholy.

She has no heart, just no heart. She had no heart in her last life, and even less in this life.

He is just a liar, a heartless and ungrateful little liar.

Gu Shizhang drank Coke and gritted his teeth.

At this time, he saw that Gu Zhihan and Gu Zhiming had stopped arguing, and the other niece was talking about an interesting story.

"Those newspapers out there are really talking nonsense. They can make up a whole article based on a few photos. They turned a serious father-daughter relationship into a romantic incident, saying that Uncle Ye was having a teacher-student relationship and supporting a young student, and that the two of them were walking hand in hand sweetly on campus!"

Everyone was surprised when they heard it: "How can it be like this? These newspapers are too irresponsible!"

In fact, the whole upper class circle of Hong Kong knew about the real and fake daughter of the Ye family. As for the fact that they went to the school to pick someone up openly, they would not hide it from the students. As a result, these third-rate tabloids deliberately created a misunderstanding and wrote some gimmicks to attract traffic and gain attention. Everyone couldn't help but laugh when watching.

Only Gu Shizhang frowned more and more as he listened to this, and he wanted to go back to his room immediately.

As he walked away, everyone noticed the Coke bottle he had just brought, and they were surprised.

It was unbelievable that my uncle actually started drinking Coke!

A niece next to him sighed, "He has changed his personality. When people fall in love, their temperaments and hobbies change."

Another nephew guessed, "I'm afraid his girlfriend likes to drink Coke?"

Everyone was amazed and nodded, "That's it."

Gu Shizhang went to the family reading room, flipped through it, and found the newspaper.

There were photos of Ye Lixuan and Ye Tianhui on the newspaper. The photo on the front showed the father and daughter walking on the campus of Hong Kong University. The two of them really didn't care about anyone else.

There was also a photo of Ye Tianhui alone. She was sitting in the classroom, holding her chin slightly, and looking at the man on the podium in front with a smile.

The look was full of admiration.

There were some sensational words under the two photos, such as tender photos of schoolgirls, sweet love, and some introductions and speculations about the members of the Ye family.

Gu Shizhang squinted and looked for a long time, and finally picked up the phone and made a call.

The weather is cold, and this kind of boring tabloid should disappear.

***********

In fact, Ye Tianhui was not feeling well after the quarrel with Gu Shizhang.

But she let herself ignore it, she let herself devote herself to work, and let herself run around when she had nothing to do.

There is nothing that can't be solved by riding!

It seems that the training effect of several horses is very good now.

Black Rose is in good condition, Light Catcher is in high spirits, and Hell King has attracted attention in an instant since his victory there. Many horse fans have asked about it, and it has suddenly become the focus of public attention. After

that, Hell King also participated in several three-class class races, and each time he easily won the first place. Its points rose rapidly. At this rate, it seems that Hell Messenger can participate in ordinary races with Light Catcher Black Rose.

Except for the international first-class class races, it is not qualified, but it can go all the other ways.

And because it has low points and poor historical performance, it also has a great advantage in weight in the competition. Everyone is training very hard now.

Victory is just around the corner, and a lot of bonuses are about to be won!

On this day, Ye Tianhui went to the racecourse to watch Lin Jianquan and Chen Zongwan training.

Now that the competition is approaching, the two teenagers seem a little too nervous and are fully prepared for the competition.

Ye Tianhui, Sun Jiajing and Lao Zhou have all talked in depth about the choice between Lin Jianquan and Chen Zongwan, and the two of them can't decide for a while.

This must be to choose the one with a greater chance of winning.

The two horses have their own strengths and have historical performance as a basis. Several people can discuss and study and give the two horses scores, but in this choice, the situation of the two young riders must also be considered.

In a speed race, 70% depends on the horse and 30% on the rider. When two horses are neck and neck, the jockey's choice is particularly important.

The jockey's choice involves many aspects, including physical fitness, exhibition experience, and of course technical hard indicators.

After various analyses and comparisons, Lao Zhou suddenly proposed: "There is another important point that may be considered."

When he said this, everyone looked away.

Lao Zhou said: "Recently, Lin Jianquan seems to have started to develop. His weight is currently about four pounds higher than Chen Zongwan's."

Chen Zongwan is a few years older than Lin Jianquan, but Lin Jianquan is taller than Chen Zongwan. Although both teenagers are strictly controlling their weight, their physical development seems to be unstoppable.

Because training requires physical strength, they dare not let them diet too much. So recently, although Lin Jianquan strictly follows the diet, he still weighs four pounds more than Chen Zongwan.

There are strict upper and lower weight requirements for jockeys. As long as the lower limit is met, the lighter the better.

Sun Jiajing frowned and disagreed: "It's just four pounds. It won't make any difference."

Old Zhou said: "There are still three weeks before the competition. In three weeks, everything will change, and--"

He looked at Sun Jiajing: "Ask yourself, four pounds, is it really unimportant? No matter who you compete with, you know that sometimes it is this tiny difference that determines victory or defeat. Are you deliberately ignoring this four-pound difference because you are biased?"

Sun Jiajing's expression froze.

The meeting room was silent for a while.

Ye Tianhui was silent for a moment, then said: "There are still five days before the final submission of the specific information of the players. We can think about it again and make a decision then."

The two horse trainers nodded.

At this moment, Ye Tianhui asked someone to bring Teng Yunwu here. She wanted to ride Teng Yunwu around the racecourse for two laps.

Since the last time she rode Cangguang, Teng Yunwu seemed a little unhappy, awkward, and jealous. She coaxed him for a long time, and Teng Yunwu's temper was gone.

However, since then, Teng Yunwu has been particularly stubborn and must ride it. Moreover, it is very averse to Cangguang and is unhappy when it sees Cangguang.

Once, when it passed by Shanguang, it deliberately took away Shanguang's fodder with its mouth, preventing him from eating.

Poor Shanguang was a good-tempered person, so he was bullied.

Ye Tianhui was also a little helpless about this. It reminded her of Gu Shizhang. She felt that Teng Yunwu was similar to Gu Shizhang in some aspects, narrow-minded, awkward, and overthinking.

What kind of man and what kind of horse are these? She has put all these things on the table...

Now that Teng Yunwu saw her coming, he was naturally very happy. He rubbed her hand affectionately with his horse head. It was obvious that he was asking for candy.

Ye Tianhui sighed. Maybe Jessise had spoiled it. It likes to eat candy now.

Of course it shouldn't eat candy. It is afraid of candy in the first place, so why should it eat candy.

But Ye Tianhui thought, if the child wants to eat, why not let him eat? It's just a piece of candy. What's wrong with such a small piece of candy with a weight of thousands of pounds?

So Ye Tianhui took it out of her pocket and gave it to him.

Teng Yunwu was immediately ecstatic. He chewed the candy greedily and looked at her happily with his eyes.

After eating, he rubbed her again.

Ye Tianhui sighed: "Eat the candy and run three laps."

Teng Yunwu obviously had no choice but to accept it. He was lazy, but he was smart and knew who was in charge. He didn't dare to disobey Ye Tianhui.

Ye Tianhui had just mounted her horse when she saw Lin Jianquan.

Lin Jianquan had just come back on horseback.

He saw Ye Tianhui, was slightly startled, and rode over to Ye Tianhui's side: "It's getting late."

His words were concise, but Ye Tianhui understood what he meant. It was getting late, and she actually came to ride a horse at this time.

Ye Tianhui was a little helpless: "It just ate a piece of candy, I want it to consume the calories."

Lin Jianquan nodded slightly: "Well, then I will run with you."

Ye Tianhui smiled and said: "No, Black Rose has already run, go back and rest."

Lin Jianquan was silent for a while, then said: "Okay."

Ye Tianhui rode the horse, riding slowly on the track.

It was cloudy at this time, the sky was lotus purple, and there was a breeze from the mountains, blowing the leaves of the palm trees.

It was dark, and the afterglow fell, so the horse farm built on the mountain was covered with a hazy gauze.

She held the reins and rode the horse, but she thought of her last life.

The north wind rustled the dry grass, and the flags fluttered on the Yuguan Road. She rode the horse across the rolling hills, and behind her was the army that stretched for dozens of kilometers.

In her new life, some things were different, but some seemed to be the same.

And he was still angry with himself.

Ye Tianhui thinks that if a person is angry, then she can coax him, whether it is a general father or a professor father in this life, she can coax him.

But now facing Gu Shizhang, she doesn't know what to do.

All her schemes and cleverness have failed. The hero has no place to use his skills and is helpless.

She will subconsciously regress to her childhood, like a child, simply angry and throwing a tantrum, blaming him for not being considerate enough.

It is wrong for her to do this, and she must reason with him. She knows clearly that she has done something wrong.

But his cold tone really makes her unable to do anything, and she feels like she has to beg him shamelessly.

Maybe he is really disappointed in her and doesn't want to pay attention to her.

Or maybe, this was a game in itself, the emperor who was reincarnated as a human played a game of chasing hearts with her, and she actually took it seriously. She

lost her man, her heart, and became a laughing stock.

When she rode back, Lin Jianquan was still there, wearing a riding suit, standing in the wind like a javelin.

He pursed his lips and looked at her quietly.

Ye Tianhui wanted to say something, but she didn't seem to want to talk.

She nodded slightly, left the horse farm, and walked out.
