Chapter 189: The Unusual Kangxi Grassland Club
I don’t know if it’s because of regular horse riding exercise, his good mentality, or some other reason, but this man’s appearance and his entire spirit are not what a man in his forties should be like.
His handsome and stylish appearance combined with the mature temperament acquired over the years make him exude charming charm.
When Xue Shaofeng heard this, he laughed happily.
"Haha, boss, you are too kind. You are all handsome men and beautiful women. I am also impressed."
This person is not only good-looking and has a good temperament, but also has a generous and open personality. It is easy and pleasant to talk to him.
While the two were exchanging pleasantries, An Yunxi seized the opportunity to interrupt and introduce Xue Shaofeng to several friends who had come over today.
"Since you are the boss's friend, you are also Xue's friend. I have made all the arrangements for today. I will make sure you have a good time."
"Boss, can I show you around and introduce you first?"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Xue!"
"My pleasure."
Xue Shaofeng took a few people on a tour and introduced some information about the club.
The entire equestrian club is built on the edge of Kangxi grassland close to the highway.
There are both indoor and outdoor horse farms here.
There are also complete professional obstacle courses, practice fields and training grounds.
Among them, the indoor horse racing arena is the largest in the country, covering an area of 1,000 square meters. The 120m x 40m venue can host various formal competitions.
The obstacle course covers an area of 4,800 square meters and can be used for official obstacle course competitions.
The practice field covers an area of 5,000 square meters, the speed race track has a circumference of 1,700 meters, and the viewing platform has more than 3,000 spectator seats. On weekends in spring, summer and autumn, the club also has irregular horse racing events.
In addition, the club’s reception area also features a dedicated clubhouse and 50 VIP lounges where members can exchange experiences.
Many rooms in the club are designed for home use, with fireplaces, sofas, televisions, flowers, magazines, etc. The style is warm and comfortable.
There are also lockers for riding boots, riding clothes, helmets and other supplies, and a bathroom for changing after riding.
The saddle shop also has riding clothes, horse riding equipment, horse equipment and gifts from all over the world.
Kangxi Grassland Club has 40 British purebred series, 10 Mo Zang series, 16 Tuoba series, 30 Wei Mu series and other fine breed horses. The total number of all horses exceeds 200.
The stables are spacious and tall, and are of international standard double-row style. They are well-lit, well-ventilated, clean and tidy, and there are dedicated people to take care of the horses.
The horses here adopt a combination of natural grazing and regular artificial feeding, so they grow and develop well.
In addition, all coaches, jockeys and breeders at the Kangxi Prairie Club have received formal training.
Members can own their own personal horses, and the club can assist members in boarding, training and breeding horses.
Members can also participate in activities organized by the racecourse, the China Equestrian Association and various racecourses.
Horse riding training classes are offered in spring, summer and autumn, where experienced coaches, jockeys or riders teach horse riding safety knowledge, riding posture, sitting position and physical training.
In addition, there are entertainment activities such as tennis, bowling, fishing, swimming, karaoke, etc.
If customers need accommodation, the club also has 80 standard rooms and 20 luxury suites, which can accommodate conference groups of 200 people and provide dining, recording, video recording, video editing and other services.
"Xiao Xi, your club is quite large. It has everything."
An Yunzhou exclaimed after touring the club's area.
"You can come and stay for a day or two next time."
Wang Yuxuan said happily.
She has loved riding horses since she was a child, and this is her first time in Kangxi.
In her opinion, the biggest highlight of this club is the vast grassland, which allows her to ride horses across the land.
This has already surpassed many clubs.
Xue Shaofeng was very happy to see that someone recognized the club he managed and continued to introduce it to everyone.
“You may not know this, but we are more than just an equestrian club.”
"The Kangxi Grassland Tourist Area next to it is also owned by our club."
"As long as you are a member of our club, you can bring two people into the tourist area for free."
"The folk resorts, open-air bonfire dance venues, go-karts, water parks and other projects in the tourist area are very popular."
"If you come as a family and don't like horse riding, you can choose other activities in our club, or you can go to the tourist area to play."
It's really family friendly, after all, not everyone is interested in riding horses.
"That scenic spot that charges an entrance fee?"
Fang Jiasheng confirmed in surprise.
Seeing Xue Shaofeng nod with a smile, everyone realized that An Yunxi didn't simply own a riding club.
This means that the entire area from the club to the scenic spot is An Yunxi's industry.
How much would it cost to buy all of this?
Except for Zhou Shiyan and Yun Jinnian, who knew a little about Master An Yunxi's family, everyone else was shocked by such a big hand.
"Yun Xi, you are so generous!"
Gu Lanxin looked at An Yunxi and said.
"I dare not accept this. It is all thanks to our elders."
The master that the system created for her is also an elder, and everything given by the system seems to be given by the so-called "master" to outsiders.
If we round off, the system is equivalent to the master, and there is nothing wrong with what she said.
"Boss, after the tour, are we going to go horseback riding?"
An Yunxi looked at the time. It was only ten o'clock in the morning.
The main purpose of their coming here this time was to ride horses. Since they were already here, they naturally wanted to experience it.
"Well, first the ride, then the meal."
It’s enough to experience it for two hours first.
So, each person in the group went to the store and picked out a set of riding clothes and protective gear to put on, and then they were taken to the training ground.
Among these eight people, Zhou Shiyan, Chu Ze and Wang Yuxuan are the ones who are better at riding horses. Gu Lanxin and Yun Jinnian can also do it a little, but they can only trot on the horse.
The other three, An Yunxi and her two brothers, were all novices in horse riding, so Xue Shaofeng assigned a coach to each of them.
Chu Ze and Wang Yuxuan chose their horses and rode them around the training ground for a few laps.
Then he felt that it was not enough, so he asked the staff to take him to the racecourse on the grassland for a good race.
Looking at the two people's heroic demeanor, An Yunxi was filled with envy.
Gu Lanxin and Yun Jinnian were also riding their horses leisurely around the training ground, chatting with each other from time to time on horseback.
The remaining three newbies can only learn from the most basic under the guidance of the coach.
However, An Yunxi’s coach seemed to be useless because of Zhou Shiyan’s presence.
At the beginning, the coach didn’t believe Zhou Shiyan. He was afraid that he didn’t teach correctly and something bad might happen to someone.
After just standing aside and listening for a while, the coach found that this person was quite professional and taught the girl even more meticulously and patiently than he did, so he was happy to stay aside and act as a hands-off boss.
An Yunxi, who has a background in martial arts, learns to ride a horse very quickly.
While An Yunzhou and Fang Jiasheng were still having their coach lead the horses around to help them get a feel for the sitting position, An Yunxi was already able to trot on the horse by herself.
Seeing that An Yunxi had mastered the movements, Zhou Shiyan also mounted his horse and ran side by side with her.
"Yunxi, let's go for a run outside?"
"OK."
The two came to the racecourse on the grassland, and An Yunxi's coach also followed on horseback.
It was An Yunxi's first day learning horse riding. For safety reasons, the coach did not allow An Yunxi to speed up.
Therefore, she could only jog on horseback with the help of her coach.
Seeing that Zhou Shiyan had been accompanying her, she said, "Brother Shiyan, go run a few laps by yourself. I have a coach here."
Zhou Shiyan looked at An Yunxi and felt a little worried.
After all, this was the little girl's first time riding a horse.
As if she could see his worry, An Yunxi quickly persuaded him, "Don't worry, I'll just ride slowly and not speed up."
How could a teacher who knew how to ride a horse accompany a novice like her but she didn't even run a lap in the whole trip?
She felt embarrassed to keep bothering others like this.
Having said that, Zhou Shiyan felt that it would not be a good idea to refuse again.
So, he repeatedly reminded An Yunxi to run slowly and not to get too far away from the coach, then he pulled the reins, turned around and rode his horse away.
When he left, he looked back several times, as if to confirm whether An Yunxi was really obedient.
An Yunxi: “…”
Is it really that serious?
She has always been very reliable.
An Yunxi sat on the horse and watched Zhou Shiyan riding.
I saw him holding the reins tightly with both hands, his eyes staring straight ahead, his body swaying naturally with the ups and downs of the horse.
The horse's hooves trampled the ground, raising dust, and the man stood tall, like a sword unsheathed, with an imposing manner.
Sometimes he whipped the horse, sometimes he stroked the horse's mane, as if he and the horse were one, enjoying the pleasure of galloping on the grassland.
Soon, it disappeared farther and farther from An Yunxi's sight.
So handsome and cool!
When Zhou Shiyan's figure had gone too far to be clearly seen, An Yunxi withdrew her gaze and rode her horse at a trot under the supervision of her coach.
The feeling of riding a horse on the grassland is completely different from that in an indoor training ground.
Green pastures and refreshing scenery.
Breathing the fresh air and enjoying the embrace of the sun and wind, An Yunxi felt as if she had become one with nature.
It's a pity that she can't ride a horse and feel the freedom, unrestrainedness and passion like the wind now.
She decided that when she returned, she would choose the riding course in the system, so that she could ride horses and gallop on the grassland like Zhou Shiyan and the others the next time she came.
An Yunxi had been trotting on the racecourse for an hour and had become very proficient in the movements of riding a horse.
Feeling a slight stinging pain on her thigh which was pressed against the saddle, she stopped, secretly took out a recovery pill and swallowed it.
Her skin is so tender that it gets hurt easily due to friction.
However, anyone who learns to ride a horse will go through this process. She has recovery pills, so it's not a big problem.
As for other people, she couldn't care less.
