silent farm

Chapter 266 Non-Mainstream Racecourse (Safe Three)

The topic of the two unknowingly came to tourism.

Li Sheng couldn't help but smiled and said, "Are you planning to make Kewell a tourist city?"

Ali shook his head and said, "That's not something I can decide. Our country made reform attempts more than ten years ago, but the resistance was too great. It had to be interrupted." Oil will be extracted one day, and the price of oil seems to be It is in the hands of their oil-producing countries, but in fact this control is not stable.

Where is the most confusing place right now?The answer is the Arab world.North Africa, Mesopotamia, and the Mediterranean coast are full of wars.In addition, Iran, the most populous country in the Middle East, has been isolated from the Arab world because they are Persians.An oil-producing country in the Middle East was eliminated, and Venezuela, which claims to be the world's largest crude oil in South America, was also eliminated.The Middle East is now struggling to control oil prices alone.

So thinking about living off oil all the time is actually a very stupid idea.

Abu Dhabi, the two coastal states of the United Arab Emirates, is building a tourist city with culture as its promotional point, while Dubai is creating a luxurious city that surprises ordinary people to attract ordinary tourists.These two cities can be said to be the most successful transformation of the oil-producing countries in the Middle East.

Ali is considered a knowledgeable person, but he also relies on oil to make a fortune and is one of their domestic interests.He has been vacillating between reform and conservatism, or he has not indicated his attitude.But he also felt the need to find new sources of income.And Li Sheng's Silent Farm is one of his goals.

But this time when he talked about traveling, he really didn't want to cooperate with Li Sheng to develop some tourist cities in their country.

He said: "Kuwait is not even as big as your farm. And there are no special attractions. Even if we want to engage in tourism, we are already far behind the two cities in the United Arab Emirates. We have to catch up with a long way to compete. "

However, Kuwait's population is also very small, and there is not enough labor force if it wants to develop industry.

"I'm telling you this because members of the royal families of several countries in the Middle East have formed a club. Regular parties are held in various cities. I don't know if you are interested."

"Is it appropriate for me to go?" Li Sheng still didn't know how to refuse directly.

"Usually we bring some good friends with us. That way we get to know more people." Ali thought he was worried about something. "Actually, our party is composed of several young members of the royal family who are relatively open. So although the form is also in accordance with Arab customs, the princesses will also participate, so you don't have to worry about feeling uncomfortable as a non-Arab."

Li Sheng thought for a while and asked, "There will probably be some people participating. I mean, except you princes and princesses."

"For example, their respective spouses, and their good friends from other countries. Fernando will participate every year. Last year, two Chinese guests also participated."

Li Sheng felt that if that was the case, he could participate if he had time. On such an occasion, at least he could get to know more people.He nodded and said, "Listening to what you said, I'm very interested in gatherings like yours. About when."

"At the beginning of March, the weather in the Middle East is relatively good at that time. We will have desert racing, we will have horse races, and we will have camel races. Of course, there are other activities."

Li Sheng smiled bitterly and said, "But I don't understand these things."

Ali laughed and said, "Actually, I'm very surprised. The Silent Farm is so big, you can create a racetrack. You must know that horse racing is a sport that the upper class is very passionate about."

Li Sheng spread his hands and said, "It's not that Silent Farm doesn't have horse racing, it's just that I don't ride very much." What he said was not a lie.He got some horses in the space and raised them in the deer farm.The deer ate the pasture he reseeded and survived.Those horses are certainly no exception.

"You also raise racehorses? But I remember that you don't have a professional trainer here."

Li Sheng also knows that horse racing must undergo scientific training in order to achieve good results.But among the more than 100 horses he picked out, some of these horses were stallions and more were mares.But they are the fastest horses in space and the furthest horses.As for whether it can be compared with those horse races, he is not quite sure.But I am afraid that there is no racecourse in the world that is bigger than his here.Three hundred square kilometers is enough for a horse to run freely.

Ali saw that Li Sheng seemed to be lost in thought. He waited for a while and said, "Can you let me see your horse racing? If possible, maybe we can send it to the UAE first. By the way, our party this year is in Abu Dhaka Than hold."

Of course, Li Sheng would not refuse such a request: "Then let's go and see together. But I don't know where they are hiding."

That place is not small. Although there are nearly [-] horses, the land of several hundred square kilometers is a bit big compared to this small number of horses.

Li Sheng first found two saddles from the storage room, and then set off.

They went by helicopter this time, because the area is too big and it is not easy to find the horses.

The helicopter soon flew over a grassland surrounded by wooden fences, which is a complete grassland in the hilly area.

Li Sheng said loudly to Ali: "This is actually a deer farm with grass planted in it. Horses are also raised in it." In fact, he had no choice but to let the deer herd eat grass instead. "There are only about [-] deer in the deer farm now. It may be a small project to develop in the future."

To Middle Easterners, deer are just a zoo.Ali didn't care too much: "Your ranch is so big, why don't you put the horses there."

Li Sheng said with a smile: "That must be fenced, otherwise the feces they pull on the pasture will affect the quality of the forage sold outside."

He has seen a documentary, there is a kind of fungus in horse manure, and a pile of horse manure can affect more than ten square meters.In this range, even horses will no longer eat the grass inside.

After hearing what he said, Ali also felt that it was necessary to keep the horses in captivity.His question seemed to reveal his intelligence, he smiled and said, "Just pretend I didn't say it."

At first, the two could not see any animals.Li Sheng explained: "The temperature is still relatively low now, maybe they are in another place."

Ali suggested, "Maybe, we should fly higher."

Li Sheng is as good as others.When the helicopter rose to a height of about 1000 meters, it really saw a group of animals.But it was a herd of deer.Li Sheng's eyesight is relatively good, and he can vaguely see many small deer in the herd.This herd of deer has really begun to reproduce.There are markets for velvet antler in China, Europe and the United States.If this deer farm develops, it can indeed be regarded as a good project.

But that's not what they're here for.They continued to circle and search for the horses.In fact, after those horses were released, Li Sheng didn't take much care of them.

Soon the herd of wild horses also appeared before their eyes.

Li Sheng landed the plane far away on a flat ground under a hillside.

But when they walked up the hill with their saddles in hand, they found that the horses had already run away.Ali was a little disappointed: "I should have thought that horses have very keen hearing, and any loud noise will startle them. The movement of the plane must make them feel dangerous."

Li Sheng saw that the horses were two or three kilometers away from them, so he didn't want to go there, and he didn't want to come in vain.He sensed the position of the horse herd, and found that the six horses he had connected to the sensor before were all in the horse herd, so he let them come.

Ali soon noticed that the horses were running towards this direction and said with a smile, "They seem to be back again."

It was only then that Li Sheng remembered that one of the horses he had connected to the sensor was Ma Wang.It turned around, and of course the other horses would follow.

He smiled and said, "Maybe, they recognized me."

"Hey, Lee. Do you think I'm hearing about horses for the first time? Horses don't have very good eyesight," Ali said amused.

Li Sheng shrugged and could only admit that he didn't understand horses.

The horses ran back and forth for at least four kilometers, but their speed was not slow.Only a few ponies were left behind.

When the horses stopped at the foot of the hill, Li Sheng didn't let them continue to come up.But Ali saw something in it: "These horses have great stamina, and they're also fast. Guess how long it took them to come back?"

Li Sheng saw that he was holding a cell phone to keep time.

Just listen to him say: "I estimate the distance from when they turned around to stopping is two and a half kilometers, but they only took less than 3 minutes."

"It's pretty fast." Li Sheng didn't know whether the speed was fast or slow.

Seeing his indifference, Ali finally believed that he really didn't understand horses.He said helplessly and a little excitedly: "Do you know how long it takes for an ordinary horse to run a kilometer? One minute and ten seconds is considered a relatively good long-distance horse race. But the horses here can run such a long distance." speed. Shouldn't you be excited?"

"Maybe it's because I've seen it too much. There is a saying in Huaxia, it's not strange to see it!" Li Sheng said with a smile. "Let's go down."

He could already see the mares in the stalled herd running back and neighing, presumably calling for ponies that had fallen behind.

When they went down the hillside, the six horses that had established a connection with Li Sheng all came over and sniffed him one after another.

Seeing this situation, Ali smiled and said, "It seems that they all like you."

Li Shengxin said that these horses were all brought out from space.The animals in the space have a strong natural intimacy with him, and these six animals have even established an inductive connection with him.Of course you will be close to him.

Ali said softly again: "These horses should be about one and a half meters."

Li Sheng didn't measure it.But the back of the tallest horse has reached the position of his chin, which should be more than 1.6 meters high.The others were slightly shorter.

Seeing the horse's ears pricked up, Ali said softly, "They should be more relaxed now, can I pet them?"

Li Sheng nodded and said, "Of course it's okay." When he was playing horse riding in China, his coach had repeatedly warned him not to get close to unfamiliar horses at will.Otherwise it is easy to get hurt.But now that he is here, the six horses should not make any harmful moves.
