Chapter 93: Participate in the Horse Auction
Business matters are all managed by subordinates, and it is not very necessary for Kaos to keep an eye on them, so Kaos took time to go to the horse auction with Lin Yifei to buy horses for the Jones Manor horse farm.
went.
Kentucky is a state in the east-central part of the United States and the fifteenth state in the history of the United States. It is most famous for its thoroughbred horses and whiskey.
The Kentucky Derby, one of the three most important horse races in the United States, is held in Kentucky every year. Because of this, the horse auction here is also the top in the United States. Every year, countless outstanding racehorses and foals are sold here.
go out.
"Brother, it's really different from what I imagined."
Lin Yifei was a little surprised when she looked at the luxuriously decorated auction hall in front of her, which was completely decorated with solid wood.
In a place like a parliament hall, mahogany wraps the entire room, including the floor and every table and chair inside, all made of mahogany. It gives people a sense of history when they are in it, as if they have returned to the last century.
The guests sitting in the hall, supported by suits and dresses, had the atmosphere of a gathering of nobles discussing world affairs.
Obviously the owner has put a lot of thought into the decoration here, making the horse trading class very noble, away from the smell of money.
"Of course. This is the highest-level auction house in Kentucky. Of course, the horses there are also the best. It is said that foals with the pedigree of champion horses often appear."
Kaos is wearing a light blue striped suit, with slightly permed hair and some curls. Sitting there, he looks exactly like a European aristocratic young master at the beginning of the century. Lin Yifei, who came with him, is also wearing a small black dress. It looks like
A cute and lovely oriental princess.
Kaos is wearing Gucci clothes, while Lin Yifei chooses LV. Although they are clothes from these two major blue-blood brands, they are not available on the market. They are both from private high-end brands.
Deposit.
Originally, I was not very familiar with these, and I had no interest in learning about them. However, this is not because Lin Yifei played with Paris and learned a lot of knowledge, so she ended up wearing what Kaos is wearing now.
For the upper class, it doesn't really matter what clothes you wear. As long as it suits the current occasion, doesn't pirate other people's products, and doesn't mix clothes, it's enough.
After all, ordinary people need clothes to highlight their status, but in the real upper class, they become people to support clothes, enhancing the other party's brand effect.
Of course, although this is the truth, when dressing, everyone will still choose customized clothing from some brands to ensure that it fits their body shape, which can not only make them more comfortable, but also prevent the appearance of conflicting clothes.
As for the small tailor shops that appear in many books and specialize in serving some top families, they seem to be more upscale than these brands, but in fact they are not very realistic.
Clothing is a popular fashion, and every era has its own preferences. Especially in modern times, the changes in clothing are faster. It may be a big change in three or two years. Designs that can catch the tail of fashion very well
All of them have turned their stores into brands.
If successive generations of heirs can firmly grasp the center of fashion, they will develop into global brands such as LV, Dior, and Gucci. If they cannot grasp it, they will just survive by relying on some special clothing.
So there is no such thing as a small shop that specializes in making clothes for some big shots. Even if there were, with the passing of these older generations, the shops would basically close down.
Advanced private customization is actually a service that these big brands have, but ordinary people don't have the money to enjoy such services.
"The descendants of champion horses, I wonder if there will be descendants of Triple Crown winners."
Lin Yifei heard Kaos's words, and there was some expectation in her eyes. Since buying Prince of Persia, Lin Yifei has gone to the racecourse from time to time. In addition to riding horses, she also takes care of each other. During this period, she can be said to have learned a lot.
Little relevant knowledge.
Among them, Lin Yifei likes obstacle courses and sprint races the most, and she even practices them herself.
However, in these two types of competitions, unless it is a long-distance racing, Lin Yifei's Prince of Persia has some use, otherwise it is not very suitable, so she is also looking forward to this auction.
I want to buy one to use as a contact or even to compete in the future.
"There is a horse named Sea Breeze that is a descendant of Triple Crown winner Secretariat."
Seemingly knowing what Lin Yifei was thinking, Kaos directly handed her a list. No matter what kind of auction it was, as long as you wanted to sell it at a high price, early publicity was indispensable.
However, Kaos did not come here for this purebred horse. Although he also likes horses, Kaos only rides them occasionally. He is not as good as Lin Yifei, who spends one morning or afternoon every week to go to the racecourse.
Diligence in practice.
Kaos still regards raising horses more like raising fish and raising birds, purely as an activity of appreciation and collection.
Just like the auction I am participating in now, I am here for the finale of a pair of Akhalte golden horses, which are often referred to as sweat-blooded horses by the Chinese.
Thoroughbred horses have a well-proportioned body structure and streamlined muscles that are already very beautiful, but the body shape of the Akhal Tekin horse is even better, especially some of the special coat colors, which push the Akhal Tekin horse to the top.
peak.
What Kaos is interested in are two Akhal Te golden horses with champagne-colored fur. In the sun, the skin of the Akhal Te golden horses looks like satin, just like the golden horses in a dream. They are recognized as the most beautiful on earth.
horse.
Its body is smooth and translucent, its head is thin and its neck is high, its limbs are upright, and its steps are light and graceful, so it is also called Pegasus.
Although they are not completely born for competition like purebred horses, their athletic ability is second to none. Especially in long-distance rallies, Akhal Tekin horses are the kings. Almost all Akhal Tekin horses can complete difficult races.
, which shows the excellence of its horse breed.
Kaos had seen Akhalte golden horses with this color in his previous life. Now that he has the opportunity and strength, he naturally has to find a way to play with them properly. Even if he doesn't compete and keep them at home, they are still very beautiful.
Collection.
"Really?"
Originally it was just a little expectation, but now that it had become a reality, Lin Yifei immediately became excited and reached for the album to read.
Seeing Lin Yifei's excited look, Kaos also laughed and leaned on the seat, also looking forward to the start of the auction.
"Kaos, Crystal, you are here too."
