Chapter 5 Fifty Dollar Quarter Horse
Stop the bleeding, sterilize, put on tape, and rest for a while. Li Han recovered. The pain caused Li Han to feel dizzy. After resting, he got up, poured a glass of milk and sat down again, talking to himself. "Have you been too tired recently? It's just a small point and such a big reaction. It seems that I will exercise more in the future."
Li Han finished drinking the milk in the cup, and remembered that the coat might be stained with blood and needs to be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise it would be a little troublesome. Who knows, he looked through it several times, but he didn't see any blood. Li Han secretly murmured, what is going on here. "Damn it." Complaining casually, Li Han took out the meteorite fragments in his pocket, flipped through it, and was a little puzzled.
"No, how did the meteorite fragments change color?" The charcoal black fragments turned fluorescent now, Li Han rubbed his eyes hard, and it was rare to drink too much, Li Han couldn't believe it. "It must have been stimulated by Chris today and drank two more glasses of dazzling eyes."
Li Han complained a few words, and decided to go back to the bedroom to sleep. He threw the meteorite fragments aside and turned off the light. Li Han drank a few more glasses at night and felt a little dizzy. Treat it as a hallucination.
Not long after Li Han fell asleep, the fragments that were quietly glowing with fluorescent light suddenly burst into light. ""Host selection, Galaxy 40988, Azure Star, Li Han, blood type O, genetic perfection forty-five, 10% match for the almighty Shennong system, 5% energy, open the primary Shennong system. "Vaguely, a white space appeared. Pieces of white sand, the dry spring in the middle gradually became wet, little drops of water came out, and fragments like glass were scattered around the edges. The space appeared for a short time, and disappeared in just a few seconds, as if there was no space." The appearance is normal, all of this, the sleeping Li Han is completely ignorant, Li Han does not know why, especially tired and fell asleep.
Until the next day, Li Han was awakened by the ringing of the phone, rubbed his confused eyes, glanced at the number, and picked up the receiver. "Weili, it's so early, what's the matter?" "Morning? Han, it's already noon, it's rare that you've been sleeping until now, God, Han, have you been infected by Heibam?"
Black Bam is a breeding pig, and he usually breeds besides sleeping.
"Noon?" Li Han looked up at the wall clock, and it was almost twelve o'clock. Could it be that he slept for sixteen hours? It's impossible, Li Han was a little dizzy, and it was difficult to drink a barrel of beer yesterday. "Weili, I'm sorry, I couldn't send Harley today." Li Han recalled that Harley was going to Seattle early this morning, and said a little embarrassedly. He seemed to feel very lucky, don't go to see Harley and Chris having a good time together.
"Han, I hate Chris a little bit, **** it, is Harry wearing ink?" Weili was a little angry, of course it wasn't because of Li Han, he was mostly Chris, too proud, and Weili didn't like it. "Oh shit, **** Chris, Han, good news Little Straw Hat Farm has a few foals for sale."
"God bless, Mighty, come back, I'll treat you to a drink." Li Han didn't expect the news so soon. Last night, Li Han said he wanted to buy a foal, and he got the letter today. Li Han hung up the phone, washed his face, and tidied up. He didn't dare to waste time. He drove his pickup truck to Xiaohuamao Farm. On the way, he bought a hamburger and a cup of coffee, and settled his lunch. It's a pity that it was a little late to reach the little flower hat farm, and the foal was sold out.
But Mixing Town is surrounded by farms, mainly planting barley and sugar beets. Except for the small and medium-sized farms of Xiaowang Farm, which have a large number of livestock, there are only a few farms that raise horses. Of course, as long as you have money, you can’t buy them. No, it was just that Li Han didn't have enough money in his hand, only enough to buy a foal. As for an adult horse, it wasn't enough, unless he bought the worst. Li Han shook his head in disappointment, a little unwilling to give up.
Li Han approached Old Meng Luo and wanted to ask if there were any foals for sale. "Hank, it's a pity I can't help you." "It's okay, Meng Luo, I'm late, what a beautiful little guy." Li Han looked at the three foals that had already belonged to the buyer, and sighed with regret. tone.
It was already afternoon when Li Han returned to town, and he made an appointment with Willi to visit another farm. "Han, **** it, Chris bought Uncle Marbury's foal yesterday. It's the prettiest little guy in Kemising." "Weili, Uncle Marbury is the best quarter horse, I Not so much money."
Li Han is telling the truth, a good quarter would cost at least a few thousand dollars, but Li Han didn’t have that much money. "It's such a pity, Uncle Marbury has a champion pedigree in raising Quart." Li Han felt a little regretful in his heart, but thinking about his own situation, he had no other choice but to shake his head regretfully.
"Get in the car, the market may have what I need." Li Han intends to go to the trading market, which is only half an hour away from the town. As soon as Willi got in the car, he didn't stop complaining about Harry, Chris, really didn't know what Chris did to provoke Willi.
Li Han had to change the subject, chatting about the Sunday football game and the barbecue party, the barbecue made Wei Li divert his attention. The corner of Li Han's mouth showed a smile. Most of the dishes in Chinese food Americans don't like to eat, especially salty and spicy dishes. There is no way to have different eating habits. In the United States, most of them prefer light flavors, adding only half of the salt in Chinese food, or not even adding them. No monosodium glutamate, prefer animal oil, and do not like oil fumes, unlike Chinese food cooked in a fire, many times like raw food, and have no interest in soy products.
However, I prefer barbecue, sweet and sour meat, barbecue, fried meat, etc. Li Han's barbecue skills are the most famous in Kemising Town. Every time Li Han has a party, the essential thing is barbecue. Wei Li and Xiaomi Qi Li Han are loyal fans. When Wei Li talked about the barbecue party, the car approached the livestock market and parked the pickup. Li Han and Weili entered the market. There are many cattle and sheep here, and there are not many horses. After all, it is not a big market. Most of the cattle and sheep are raised around it. In the past two years, Americans seem to realize that eating red meat is not good for the health. Many People choose to eat red meat once a week, and more and more people gradually start to choose white meat.
"Weili, let's go take a look." Li Han saw a few white people talking around the stable in front, pointing to the maroon quarter horses in the stable from time to time, Wei Li nodded and Li Han walked over. "Oh God, Han, my eyes are spent, a hundred dollar quarter."
Wei Li screamed in surprise, he couldn't believe it, Li Han was a little stunned, when is the value of the quarter so cheap? It's just that the hair color is a little dull, and the spirit doesn't seem to be very good. Li Han's eyebrows are slightly wrinkled.
"Han."
"William, let's take a look." Li Han doesn't care about the pie falling from the sky. Maybe there is something wrong with this Picart. Before Li Han doesn't know the problem, he won't buy it impulsively, even if it's cheap. Wei Li was a little regretful. Li Han smiled and shook his head and pointed to several middle-aged white people who were discussing the horse. These were all experienced cowboys or small farmers like Li Han. Sure enough, there was something wrong with this horse. Suffering from a bizarre gastrointestinal disease, the owner spent thousands of dollars untreated.
Only for sale, one hundred dollars, it is completely but half sale and half free, just to buy a terminally ill quarter, even if one hundred dollars, not many people are willing to pay. "It's such a pity." Wei Li spread his hands to Li Han regretfully.
"It doesn't matter, 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 just 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 hide is enough to make up for it part of the loss.
"God, Han, this is a sick horse." Wei Li couldn't help reminding him that fifty dollars, ah, to buy a dead horse, even if it was cheap, it would still be a bit of a loss. "Fifty dollars? Okay." The middle-aged white man glanced at the maroon quarter horse 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 quarter?" "Oh, no, fifty dollars, maybe take a gamble." Li Han said with a smile, fifty dollars.
Sick horses, I don't want people to be reluctant to buy them for fear of other livestock contracting this strange gastrointestinal disease, but Li Han doesn't care. When we went back, Weili was driving the pickup, and Li Han was holding the jujube quattro. There was only a name. Li Han felt that there was no need to start it now. Maybe we can talk about it when there is a miracle.
Back in the town, Weili had long ago publicized Li Han's purchase of a sick horse. Many people couldn't believe that Li Han was a 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. The Chinese was crazy, and even many acquaintances who raised livestock at home avoided Li Han from a distance, for fear of bringing disease to the livestock at home. Li Han has already asked Carter's previous owner, and it seems that it is not contagious, but Li Han still did the inspection, and the whole thing cost thirty dollars.
