Chapter 765: Avid horse racing

"More than 20 million Hong Kong dollars!" Xia Ruofei heard a lot of words.

Ma Xiong said with a smile: "For a horse, such a price can be no exaggeration! Xia Sheng, do you know the most expensive pure blood horse worth? More than 60 million, US dollars!"

"This is the real ‘BMW’!” Xia Ruofei joked, “It’s much more expensive than a BMW...”

Guo Hongjiang couldn’t help but laugh and said: “It’s really a bit of money to play horse racing. A good horse is worth a lot of money. In addition, the maintenance and training of horses, etc., the cost is very high in one year. Others. Do not say, if you go to the field to participate in the competition, it is the cost of transshipment, each time is hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars!"

"This is really a movement for the rich..." Xia Ruofei couldn't help but sigh.

Guo Hongjiang said with a smile: "Not at all, there is money and money to play, no money and no money to play!"

After he said that he pointed to the stands downstairs, he said: "Gambling horses can be said to be almost universal participation in Hong Kong Island. The threshold is very low. Tickets for Happy Valley Racecourse only cost HK$10. It is OK to brush Octopus directly. And the betting threshold is very low, you can buy it for 10 dollars, there are still a lot of games, you can buy a win, buy a position, buy a win, etc..."

Ma Xiong said with a smile: "Guo Dong, if you have time, you can take Xiasheng to see your love horse!"

"No problem! 'Star of Hong Kong Island' should be undergoing various inspections now, and it is not possible to contact the outside world before the game." Guo Hongjiang said with a smile. "But before the game starts, I can take Mr. Xia to take a closer look. !"

Xia Ruofei nodded and glanced around in the box. He said with a smile: "In fact, you don't have to look at it. The photos here should all be 'Star of Hong Kong Island'?"

This box is exclusive to Guo Hongjiang. Even if he didn't come, this side is not open to the outside world, so the decoration and layout of the box are arranged according to Guo Hongjiang's preferences.

There are a lot of photos hanging on the wall of the box, all of which are the same horse. Since the star of Hong Kong Island is so popular with Guo Hongjiang, it is not difficult to guess.

Guo Hongjiang smiled and nodded and said: "Yes! These photos have just been changed this year. My previous horse has been retired, and there are still several standards that have not yet reached the competition."

Then he said with a sigh of relief: "It is not easy to find a good horse this year!"

Ma Xiong joked on the side: "Do you have this 'Star of Hong Kong Island' is not enough? I don't know how many people envy you!"

"Haha! That's my vision!" Guo Hongjiang said with some smugness. "I didn't take long for this horse to be born, I bought it and taught it for a long time!"

Xia Ruofei had some accidents and said: "That is, when a little pony was born, Guo Dong spent more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars?"

Ma Xiong said with a smile: "This is normal! Guo Dong has a dedicated team, his experience is very rich, his vision is very accurate! The blood of Hong Kong Island is very pure, and his father is also a champion horse, so The high selling price of the horse is quite normal! The current 'Hong Kong Island Star' has taken so many championships, and the value is definitely more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars. It is more than doubled!"

Ma Xiong said that he looked to Guo Hongjiang.

Guo Hongjiang smiled a little smugly and said: "This value does not make sense. Anyway, I can't sell the 'Star of Hong Kong Island'. This is my baby!"

"That is! Hong Kong Island Guo Dong loves the horse, this is everyone's knowledge!" Ma Xiong snarled.

"Ha ha! People always want to be a little hobby!" Guo Hongjiang said with a smile, then looked at Xia Ruofei and asked, "Xia Sheng, are you interested in buying a few notes to play? My 'Hong Kong Island Star' play still It’s relatively stable, and there aren’t any strong opponents tonight, and it’s not a big problem to win.”

Xia Ruofei nodded and said: "Okay! Then play, but the meaning is just fine, focus on entertainment!"

At the level of Guo Hongjiang, it is impossible to really gamble.

In fact, Guo Hongjiang has played away from the pursuit of the general public. It is a bit like Ma Xiong’s foreign horse racing culture. Guo Hongjiang used this horse as an entertainment and social occasion, and talked with friends about horses. Enjoy the game.

As for how much profit and how much bonus the horse can bring to him, it really doesn't matter that he is the king of real estate on Hong Kong Island. Every minute the profits created by the company are greater than the profits of a horse race, not to mention the possibility of being in the box. Chatting into a business, you can buy ten "Hong Kong Island Stars".

"Okay! You can bet directly in the box! I will teach you!" Guo Hongjiang said happily.

Hong Kong Island horse racing has developed into a very mature industrial chain. Now, even if it is not on site, you can place bets.

The Internet is so developed that it can now accept foreign bets.

Of course, there is also a spacious indoor trading hall in the racecourse, where there are always crowds and busy staff.

Guo Hongjiang, in the box of the director of the Jockey Club, is naturally free to bet.

Guo Hongjiang took Xia Ruofei to the side of a device similar to the ktv karaoke machine and operated it on the touch screen.

Xia Ruofei invested 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, although it is said to buy entertainment, but it is not possible to really only buy a 10 Hong Kong dollars, it is too much loss.

As for the object of betting, it is natural to buy Guo Hongjiang’s “Star of Hong Kong Island” to win.

Even if this horse is not optimistic, Xia Ruofei is not likely to buy another horse. In fact, the emotional intelligence can be too low.

Guo Hongjiang smiled and helped Xia Ruofei complete the bet. He handed the horse ticket similar to the mainland lottery style printed on the terminal to Xia Ruofei, and then said: "Mr. Xia, 'Star of Hong Kong Island' is not high. However, if the victory is stable, there should be no suspense in this game. It is okay to earn a few thousand dollars at that time!"

"Haha! Then take care of Guo Dong!" Xia Ruofei laughed.

Night falls.

Guo Hongjiang told the people to send a sumptuous dinner, and also opened a bottle of his red wine, and in the horse room box, Xia Ruofei and Ma Xiong had a meal.

Naturally, there will be only one game in the night. In fact, there are a total of eight horses tonight, half an hour apart. Guo Hongjiang’s “Star of Hong Kong” is about 8:30 in the evening.

So when everyone was eating, the game had already started.

Xia Ruofei is also a feeling of the frenetic atmosphere of Hong Kong Island horse racing.

The following ordinary stands are full of seats. When the horses are ready to go, the crowd is already unable to sit still, and everyone is almost standing.

At the moment of departure, the entire racecourse was almost boiling.

Everyone waved their horse tickets and horses, and they shouted in various languages. There were English, Cantonese, and of course, Mandarin. Hong Kong Island horse racing is an indispensable part of the mainland tourists.

Even in the member box where the sound insulation effect is very good, Xia Ruofei can feel the vibration of the entire grandstand, and the following shouts are also coming in.

"eon!"

"ugetit!"

"No. 7! No. 7! Rush!"

"Five! Go! Go! Go! Go!"

Cheers, whistles, shouts, and resounding through the clouds.

The track is not long, the time of the game is actually very short, and the horses have already crossed the end in a blink of an eye.

At this point, it seems that there is an invisible big hand in the same control. Everyone is looking at the big screen in the center of the grass field. If you don't use the lens, it is difficult to tell who wins. In the screams and shouts of the previous minute, no one knew at all whether the horses they were betting were half-leading.

The results soon showed up on the big screen.

The nature of the purchase is ecstatic, especially the winner of this game is a cold horse, the odds are high and scary.

Many people are laughing up and hugging with their companions.

Of course, more people are extremely disappointed and sit down in despair. Some people went to the indoor trading hall without saying a word. There was another half an hour and the next game started again. They had to hurry and bet.

The scenes of the maddening beings in the stands and the scenes in the box are in stark contrast, and Xia Ruofei’s heart will inevitably give birth to a few emotions.

In the game, Guo Hongjiang also did not forget to comment on the horses in the competition. When the big screen shows that the 2nd victory was not optimistic before the game, he still had some accidents.

Guo Hongjiang smiled and said: "This is a big loss, I bought a single win on the 5th..."

Xia Ruofei said with some surprise: "Guo Dong also bought this one?"

"Playing!" Guo Hongjiang shrugged.

Ma Xiong smiled at the side: "Isn't it fun?"

"Hundreds of thousands!" Guo Hongjiang said in disappointment. "I didn't expect that the 5th is so disappointing. In fact, the horse is a good horse, but the training is not very good. The protection estimate has not kept up. The late course has slowed down obviously. That ride The teacher almost meant something..."

Xia Ruofei can not help but secretly shake his head. This Guo Hongjiang really likes to bet on horses. The bets are actually in millions of Hong Kong dollars. This is not his own horse. He does not know that he has the "Star of Hong Kong". Did not buy, it is estimated that certainly bought a lot.

However, this kind of thing Xia Ruofei naturally will not ask.

After the meal, Guo Hongjiang let people remove the things, but the bottle of red wine is still in the box, the three also chatted with the wine glasses, while clinking glasses from time to time, the atmosphere is very leisurely, and the crazy in the stands A sharp contrast has been formed.

Guo Hongjiang looked up at the watch and said: "The time is almost up, Mr. Xia, let's go down and see the star of Hong Kong Island?"

"Okay! A tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars BMW, how can I get a close-up view!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.

So the three put down the wine glasses, left the box under the leadership of Guo Hongjiang, and went down through an internal staircase.

The "Star of Hong Kong" game is in the next game, but in order to give everyone a bet time, there will be a 30-minute interval between the two games, and now the horses that are going to participate are preparing.

Xia Ruofei went downstairs to know that although it was a close look, it was not very close.

The horses are about to enter the competition. In order to prevent accidents, other people are not allowed to approach them at this time. Only the participating horses and the jockey are together.

Xia Ruofei and Guo Hongjiang and Ma Xiong are separated by a fence and saw the "Star of Hong Kong Island" ten meters away.

This is a brown stallion, and Xia Ruofei can't see any doorway, but he feels that the fully equipped jockey next to it looks pretentious.

Ma Xiong said on the side: "Xia Sheng, Guo Dong, this 'Hong Kong Island Star' is still very good! You see that its coat color is very bright, and the muscles of the chest and hip are distinct, especially the hind leg muscles. It’s full of strength, and the eyes are full of gods. It’s really a good horse!”

Don't look at Ma Xiong's dislike of betting on horses, but as a Hong Kong Islander, the understanding of horse racing is far from Xia Ruofei.

Guo Hongjiang did not have modesty at this time, said with a smile: "Mr. Xia, my horse's horseshoe leg structure is a standard 'diea' structure, which is almost the most perfect horse structure, you see the horse next to him, It is the structure of 'bow-kneed', although this little bit does not affect the game, but for the horses that win or lose in the first line, this little trick may be the gap between the champion and the penultimate!"

Xia Ruofei carefully looked at the horse that Guo Hongjiang said, and compared it with the "Star of Hong Kong Island" for a long time, and did not see any difference in the horseshoe structure of the horses of the two horses.

Guo Hongjiang also knows that he is a bit too professional, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xia, I said that you just listen to it. In short, my 'Hong Kong Island Star' congenital condition is almost perfect, plus I also invited the top team to train and train, so I have achieved a lot of good results in the past year."

Xia Ruofei nodded and said: "It seems that I can make a small profit tonight..."

Guo Hongjiang laughed and said: "It should not let you lose money!"

Then the three people looked at the fence again for a while. Xia Ruofei listened to Guo Hongjiang’s comments on the competitors of “Star of Hong Kong Island”. They felt that they were either wrong here or there was a flaw there. Anyway, “Star of Hong Kong Island” It seems to be winning.

Until the game is about to begin, when the horses and jockeys go to the starting point of the track, the three talents return to the box. After all, the downstairs is unclear, the view inside the box is the best, and the entire track is unobstructed.

Although the confidence is full, but the game is about to begin, Guo Hongjiang is inevitably a little nervous, can be seen from his eyes.

After Guo Hongjiang returned to the box, he walked to the front of the floor glass and quickly found the location of the "Star of Hong Kong Island", then lifted the telescope to look closely.

After a period of waiting, the game officially began.

Under the control of the jockey, the horses rushed forward like a string of arrows, leaving behind a burst of smoke.

The cheers and whistles on the court rang again, and Xia Ruofei once again felt the vibration of the stands.

Although Guo Hongjiang was not as rude as the average audience, he also clung his fist tightly and stared at the track intently. It seemed to be trying to force the "Star of Hong Kong Island."

Guo Hongjiang is right. The "Hong Kong Island Star" is in excellent condition. It is in a leading position when it starts. Although the leading advantage in horse racing is often not very big, it can still be seen by the naked eye. "It is indeed the first place."

Just when Xia Ruofei thought that "Star of Hong Kong Island" would win the game without any suspense, there was an unexpected situation on the field...
