Da Kusu Youzhi was still teasing Haibara Ai with a smile, "So, will the little lady still choose the pony from last time today?"
There was nothing he could do, this little girl with a cold face was so cute, he couldn't help but want to tease her...
Hui Yuan Ai nodded. She liked the pony she rode last time and was familiar with it. She didn't want to change it again.
"What about Mr. Chi?" Danan Youzhi turned to ask Chi Feichi again.
"Let's keep the same one from last time." Chi Feichi was too lazy to change it.
None of the horses on this ranch can communicate.
It’s not that they are completely devoid of spirituality, it’s just that they are still ignorant.
"I want to go see Mrs. Lipu first," Haibara lamented. "Last time I came here, didn't Mr. Da Kusu say that she had a miscarriage?"
"How is the situation now?" Chi Feichi also asked.
‘Lippu Woman’ is the mare responsible for breeding at this Ok ranch, and is also the mother of the pony Haiyuan Ai raised.
The last time they came here, Mrs. Lippe had just had a miscarriage and looked very ill.
"Then I'll take you over there to have a look," Okusu Tomoyuki turned around and led the way to the place where the horses were kept behind. As he walked, he couldn't hold back the smile on his face and sighed, "I feel much better recently, and I don't look like the child who just lost him.
I didn’t eat or drink during those days..."
Takeuchi Sanae followed and looked at the mare over there, "However, the doctor said that she will never be able to have any more children in the future."
Da Kusu Youzhi stopped in front of the mare, stretched out his hand and hugged her, "Mr. Chi and Miss Xiao Ai came to see you, do you remember?"
Mrs. Lipu lowered her head and rubbed Okusu Tomoyuki, with a depressed mood in her big eyes.
Haiyuan Ai also stepped forward and reached out to touch Mrs. Lip.
"Okay," Okusu Tomoyuki felt that the atmosphere was a bit sad and not suitable for children. He loosened his arms and patted Mrs. Lipu's head gently, "Mrs. Lipu is very strong. It will get better after a while. We
Go see the ponies."
After turning around the stable, a group of people saw a stall at the end, where a gray pony nodded its head and walked cheerfully, with a white patch on its forehead that looked like a crescent moon flashing.
Huihara Ai's mood suddenly improved, and he followed Da Kusu Youzhi's pace and accelerated a bit.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xiao Ma looked up at the group of people coming over. He looked serious for a second, raised his head slightly, stood up straight, and looked like a 'baby is super elegant and steady'.
"Pfft!" Takeuchi Sanae laughed, "This kid has really become more and more naughty recently."
"Xiao Ai, I'm a good match for you." Chi Feichi lowered his head and said sadly to Haiyuan.
Hui Yuan Ai, who was happily walking towards Xiao Ma, paused, raised his head and looked at Chi Feichi speechlessly, "Oh? Really?"
Are you making fun of her?
"Yeah." Chi Feichi nodded.
Hui Yuan Ai choked, forget it, she won't compete with Chi Feichi, just watch her pony.
Xiao Ma first rubbed the hand extended by Da Kusu Youzhi. When he saw Haihara Ai standing in front of him, he looked down and seemed to recognize it. He lowered his head and wanted to rub Haihara Ai.
Hui Yuan Ai reached out and hugged the horse's head, put his head close to it, smiled and rolled his eyes, "You still remember me..."
Huh?
Da Kusu Youzhi looked at Haibara Ai in surprise.
He thought this little girl had always been cold.
Hui Yuan Ai noticed three eyes falling on her, she turned cold for a second, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
The person who smiled like a childish kid just now is definitely not her...
She wouldn't be so naive!
"Pfft!" Takeuchi Sanae laughed out loud again and looked sideways at Chi Feichi.
Mr. Chi is right, they really match...
"It's nothing, it's nothing." Okusu Tomoyuki said this, and couldn't help but smile on his face.
Hui Yuan Ai felt that she had lost face again. She resisted the embarrassment and turned back, looking at the white crescent moon on the pony's head, and thought of Mrs. Li Pu again.
Mrs. Lipps is also gray and has a white patch on her head, but it is rounder.
Compared to other ponies, this one looks most like Mrs. Lipps.
"Is it Mrs. Lippe's youngest child? Will this child be sold in the future?"
It is also Mrs. Lippe's last child.
"This..." Da Kusu Youzhi hesitated for a moment, "If someone likes it or has a talent for competition, he will sell it to the racecourse in two years. In fact, the racecourse also orders a batch of strong and young-looking horses every year.
"
Hui Yuan Ai hugged the pony and fell silent.
Sanae Takeuchi explained softly to Ai Haibara, "The miscarriage of a mare is a huge loss for the ranch. Mr. Ohkusu bought a batch of ponies before, and funds were a little tight, so he had to contact the buyer and sell it.
A bunch of horses have been lost, but don’t worry, the kids are still young and can probably be raised for another year or two.”
"Xiao Ai, do you want to buy this pony?" Chi Feichi asked.
It would also be a good idea to buy a pony to play with Haiyuan Ai.
"Would you like to buy it?" Hui Yuan Ai hesitated, "But..."
"I usually keep it here," Chi Feichi said. "If we buy it, it will not be sold, and no one else will ride it. If you come here again in the future, you can choose it."
Da Kusu Youzhi smiled and said, "We also have many horses here that have owners, but they are just fostered by us. If you want to ride, you can choose your own horse, and we will take good care of them."
"Just treat it like a pet. If you have time to take care of it, you can take it back and keep it for two days. If you can't take care of it, send it back." Chi Feichi added.
Hui Yuan Ai was a little moved.
It won't be sold, can you take it back and take care of it?
It seems very...
Uh, wait, you definitely can't raise horses in Chi Feichi's apartment building. Dr. Ali's house has a yard and you can raise them. But when you think about other people walking their dogs after dinner, and she walking her horse after dinner, I think the style of painting is a bit strange.
But having said that, Chi Feichi’s pets are not common ones. There are snakes and crows, so it’s okay for her to keep a horse as a pet... right?
Chi Feichi saw Haiyuan Ai's hesitant look and knew that Haiyuan Ai had been persuaded. He turned to look at Da Nan Youzhi and said, "Mr. Da Nan, let's talk about the price..."
Da Kusu Youzhi smiled and said, "How about you go to my office and sit for a while first?"
The two went back to the house to discuss the price.
Hui Yuan Ai touched the pony's head and followed him.
Takeuchi Sanae poured tea for Chi Feichi and Da Nanzhi, and Haihara Ai poured a glass of orange juice.
Da Kusu Youzhi took a document, opened it, and put it in front of Chi Feichi, "Mrs. Lipu is a Dutch Warmblood horse, and the pony's father is also a Dutch Warmblood horse. This is the pedigree certificate, and the birth certificate."
The vaccination certificate and physical examination show that the child is now one year and three months old and very healthy..."
Chi Feichi roughly looked through the document.
Haiyuan Ai also stood aside to watch.
“Dutch warmblood horses are best suited for equestrian performances and dressage,” Da Nanyou said. “For dressage, you can start training now. However, we don’t have professional trainers at the ranch, so we can’t help. If Mr. Chi and
If Miss Xiao Ai needs it, we can also help contact the trainer..."
"Mr. Danan, please tell me the price of the horse and the cost of fostering it for one year," Chi Feichi said, "If appropriate, we will sign an agreement now."
One of Da Nan's friends choked, "Don't you need to go see Pony again?"
"No, I saw it last time," Chi Feichi said, "The bones are very straight, the hip joint to the spine is relatively flat, the neck and skull are big, the four hooves are strong, and the teeth are neat. They are still young now. If they are raised well in the future, they will be
He is a good and strong horse. The disadvantage is that the coat color is a bit mixed. The white patch on the top of the head is nothing, but the crescent pattern is the distinctive feature. However, the hair on the mane and tail is white and gray, which does not look good, but it is still thick and smooth.
There is nothing wrong with my body..."
Da Nan's friend, stay.
Takeuchi Sanae, stay.
"The nutritional supplements such as musculoskeletal growth hormone are pretty good, but Mr. Da Nan may not have noticed a problem," Chi Feichi looked at Da Nan Youzhi, "This pony is not thin, but according to the last time I came here and this
When I came here to observe the situation last time, it was gaining weight at a slower rate and it did not reach the physique it should have for its age.”
"It seems like this," Da Kusu Youzhi nodded thoughtfully, and couldn't help but ask, "What is the reason? I have discovered this problem before, but I asked a doctor to do a physical examination. Xiaoma has no disease and his digestion is normal.
"
"Under normal circumstances, horses that exercise less than 4 hours a day are considered lightly exercised horses. The concentrate in the diet should be controlled at about 15%. This is correct," Chi Feichi looked at Da Nan Youzhi, "
The pony doesn't do high-intensity exercise. You probably just let it out for a run every day, but this pony seems to like to step and jump in the stable recently. You didn't count the amount of exercise. If you included the amount of exercise, the proportion of concentrate would be about
It should be around 20%.”
Da Nan Youzhi was stared at by Chi Feichi and couldn't help but sweat. He felt like a primary school student who had done something wrong, "Yes, I'm sorry..."
Huh? No...
Why did he say sorry?
Is this still his pony?
Even if you feel guilty and want to say sorry, you should tell Xiao Ma.
Takeuchi Sanae laughed dryly, "Mr. Chi really knows these things. Have you ever raised a horse?"
"He is a veterinarian," Hui Yuan Ai explained helpfully. He looked at Chi Feichi and teased, "Did you have an occupational disease?"
"A bit," Chi Feichi admitted frankly, "I'm better at diagnosis and surgery."
As for internal medicine, cells, parasites, etc., he doesn't know that much.
"So that's it," Sanae Takeuchi laughed, but couldn't help but ask, "How do you think Mrs. Lipu's condition is? Is her body recovering well?"
"The recovery is relatively good," Chi Fei nodded, but then he realized something was wrong. He was not here to see a doctor. "Mr. Danan, please quote the price."
"Ah, I'm sorry," Da Kusu Youzhi also realized that they were here to discuss the sale of horses. He handed a form to Chi Feichi and thought for a while, "I will charge you 100,000 yen for the pony. If you foster it, the fodder will be
There are many types, you can take a look at them in detail. In addition, we can also handle the insurance procedures for you..."
Chi Feichi took a look and saw that adult horses and ponies were divided into categories. The breeding and prices were quite reasonable. The form included basic breeding and some additional accounts.
Hui Yuan Ai moved aside to watch. She didn't quite understand. Chi Feichi just had to decide, but...
The cost of raising a horse for one year is much more expensive than that of a horse.
Alas, I have a feeling that raising a daughter is not easy...
"Do you want to find someone to train in dressage?" Chi Feichi turned to ask Haiyuan Ai.
Haiyuan Ai thought for two seconds and shook his head, "No need for now, we don't need it to participate in competitions. Training every day will be very boring. Let it play for a while. If you find that it likes it, then let it learn
It’s not too late either.”
"You can try to train yourself. It doesn't matter how you train. You can cultivate feelings."
Chi Feichi said something and communicated with Danan Youzhi about the feeding plan.
Needless to say, the basic feeding package is to choose the best one and foster it for a year. If it doesn't work, you can change to another pasture. In addition, there are regular physical examinations, daily exercise training, transportation to Tokyo if necessary, designated horseshoes, designated stable bedding, etc.
Additional items, plus insurance...
In the end, the pony's foster care fee was 100,000 yen, and the annual foster care fee was 550,000 yen.
Raising a horse is indeed more expensive than buying a horse.
