Chapter 540 New Possibilities

Pushing open the door, Zhang Chi found that Melika was sitting on the chaise longue in front of the window sill, leaning her body as if looking outside while answering the phone.

Zhang Chi didn't say anything, and carefully came to Melika's side.

As soon as the door opened, Melika saw Zhang Chi and saw him coming to her, so she motioned for her husband to sit down first, while she continued to talk on the phone.

After talking for more than a minute, Melika hung up the phone.

"good news!"

Just as Zhang Chi was about to open his mouth to ask who to call, he heard Melika speak first, which meant good news.

"Good news, I don't like anything but good news! By the way, what good news, do you have any money?" Zhang Chi asked cheerfully.

Melika heard Zhang Chi mentioning the money, so she smiled and said, "It must be rich, or what else can I tell you, in the two games this morning, the Great Secret Realm won a bonus of 40!"

"Hey! It's really good news. I won a bonus of 40 yuan in one game. Is it finally time to pass the two-year-old barrier? It's time for us to make money."

Zhang Chi immediately stood up when he heard this, and waved his fist in the air, his face full of joy.

Zhang Chi was so happy that he forgot about the two games that Melika said.

Melika thinks that Zhang Chi is a bit mental, is 40 dollars worth such happiness, why does it seem that the financial conditions of her family are very difficult.

"Okay, how about 40 yuan acting like this?" Melika said.

Zhang Chi stopped his exaggerated performance, and smiled: "Did you see it?"

"I see, the acting is very exaggerated," Melika laughed.

"There is another one that is also good news."

Zhang Chi came back to his senses now, and asked with a smile: "How much did the silly Damu win?"

"Silly Damu won 33 yuan," Melika said.

When Zhang Chi heard this, he smiled at his wife and said, "Why do you put the young ones behind you?"

Melika said: "Bonuses are the second most important thing. After winning these two games, whether it is Silly Damu or the Great Secret Realm, they will be the big favorites in the qualifying round."

Zhang Chi is really not very interested in what hot horses are. It’s not that he thinks this is not exciting, but that he already knew the result. If a horse strengthened with gourd pulp cannot maximize its strengths, That's an amazing fart.

Melika continued: "If you run again in the future, you can run some invitational races, but Old Mason's suggestion is to rest for a month to a month and a half, and directly participate in the qualifying races. After all, the two horses participated in the races during this period It's a bit much."

Zhang Chi thought for a while, then nodded: "This kind of thing is still up to Mason, after all, he is a professional, and I am the second pole here."

These days, no matter whether it is the Great Secret Realm or the Silly Damu, the two horses have participated in many races, and the intensity of the competition is not low. As far as two-year-old horses are concerned, it is rare for them to run so consecutively.

This thing is just like a human being, its body is not yet fully developed, so it is really not easy to encourage growth.

Therefore, horse owners who cherish horses generally wait for the qualifying round of the Triple Crown after running two races.

However, both the Great Secret Realm and Silly Damu survived under this arrangement. The main reason for this is that Mason wants to earn some fame, and secondly, Zhang Chi also wants to win some competitions, although the bonuses are not high every time. , but it’s better to have income than to take it out of your own pocket, isn’t it?

"I also think the same way, because the next two games are very important, and the prize money of each game is more than one million US dollars...".

Zhang Chi's eyes lit up when he heard it: "Million bonus?"

Melika said: "Of course, the next two games are G1 games, and they are also the stepping stones of the Triple Crown. One is in early March and the other is in mid-March. After the game, if you win, you can prepare for the next three games with peace of mind. Championship game."

The Triple Crown in the United States is divided between May and June, so after winning these two games, both the Great Secret Realm and Silly Damu have a certain amount of rest time.

"Well, good, good".

Zhang Chi's mood immediately improved after hearing the million dollar game.

Melika was a little dissatisfied at the moment, and after talking for a while, she said to Zhang Chi: "It's a pity, if the characteristics of Silly Damu and the Great Secret Realm are combined into one, and we can win the Triple Crown, it will be much better."

Silly Damu and the Great Secret Realm are combined into one, then both long and short distances can be lived together, and the hope of winning the Triple Crown is very great, but the reality is that it is difficult for Silly Damu to beat the Great Secret Realm in the Presley Championship, and Da Mu Uncharted also had no hope of beating Sha Damu at the Belmont track.

Some people will say that it is enough to let only one horse participate in the competition.

This is a question of insurance. Although they are blessed with gourd pulp, the basic conditions of the two horses determine that they are very strong in terms of strength, and also very short in areas of weakness. Even if one horse does not participate, it will be weak in terms of , neither horse had any chance of winning the other horse.

And it's hard to say what happened on the field. What if a horse suddenly went crazy and won the race? Not to mention that this situation is impossible, which horse can be mixed into the Triple Crown track is weak chicken?

If you are careless, the ticket will fly, and when the Triple Crown is gone, the ticket will also fly, so neither Zhang Chi nor Mason will win a horse by themselves, even if they do not win the title of Triple Crown, they will not win the title. Pocket the winnings.

Zhang Chi couldn't help laughing when he heard it.

"Yeah, unexpected and greedy."

In the past, Zhang Chi felt that such a horse was easy to find, but now he thinks that a horse with average value and above average regardless of long or short distances is actually the most difficult to find.

Now Zhang Chi especially wants the "upright and bright" horse of his good neighbor Lao Liu.It's a pity that Lao Liu's lack of heart and morality means that he is not short of money, and the two melons and dates in Zhang Chi's pocket are not enough for Lao Liu to support his little girls.

"How is Lao Liu's upright horse?" Zhang Chi asked.

Melika replied: "I don't know, you want to know and let Mason ask?"

"Don't ask, I'm just talking casually," Zhang Chi said.

Melika remembered something, and said to Zhang Chi: "After the new year, if the Great Secret Realm and Sha Damu can win the two qualifying matches, you can accompany me, and we will take the children to a place."

"Go somewhere?"

Zhang Chi was a little confused, why he was going to Kansas all of a sudden.

Melika said: "Go to visit an elder. This may not be possible, just wait to win the next Triple Crown."

Zhang Chi looked at Melika, his eyes were full of inquiries.

Melika didn't say anything, just said: "My father called in the morning."

Zhang Chi thought for a while and said: "Actually, we don't have to live against our will. How much money is worth the money. We don't really need anything now. Why bother to praise other people's stinky feet?"

Melika said: "You think too much, it's not a question of whether you like it or not, you just listen to my arrangement when the time comes."

Hearing what Melika said, Zhang Chi had no choice but to nod.

The couple chatted, and Zhang Chi was about to go back to bed and lie down. After driving for a long time, his nerves were still quite tense. Don't look at the fast driving, but you have to be careful on the road. It may be planted in a ditch, and the heart is hanging when driving. It is much more difficult to drive than other times.

He lay down on the bed with his clothes closed, and stretched something to cover his stomach. Zhang Chi wanted to sleep but couldn't fall asleep. His mind was full of the matter of meeting the elders with Melika. lock up.

After half an hour, Zhang Chi's heart broke: Forget it, the damned bird is facing upwards, turn it over if you don't die!Let him go, elders don't eat people, do they?
Just as I was about to sleep, I suddenly heard movement from Melika.

Turning around, she saw Melika with her head down, frowning and pressing her temples with her hands, looking in pain.

"what happened?"

Zhang Chi quickly got up from the bed, came to Melika's side, helped her to the bed, let her lie on the bed, resting her head on his lap, gently pressed her temples with both hands, and started Combed her scalp.

"what happened?"

Seeing that Melika didn't answer, Zhang Chi asked again: "Why do you have a good headache?"

Melika thought for a while and said to Zhang Chi: "I don't know, maybe I was too busy this morning, and my head was dizzy. I didn't care. Who knew that it suddenly got worse just now."

"It's not about relaxing".

Zhang Chi's heart began to hang up, thinking that he would get some gourd pulp for his daughter-in-law later, so as not to cause any health problems.

Melika did nothing, just closed her eyes, frowning slightly, countless thoughts were spinning fiercely in her mind.

Zhang Chi was thinking about gourd pulp while talking.

After about five or six minutes, Melika suddenly said to Zhang Chi: "Do you still have a pregnancy test stick at home?"

Zhang Chi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "What do you want that thing for?"

"I wonder if I'm pregnant," Melika said.

Zhang Chi was stunned for a while and scratched his head: "Is it possible?"

Melika felt a little irritated, and said directly: "Is there any?"

"I don't know either," Zhang Chi said.

Melika thought for a while, and said to Zhang Chi: "Go to my study, there is a small box in the cabinet under the left hand, check if there is any in it, if not, go buy one. But you Don't talk nonsense, it's not pregnancy, isn't it tormenting grandma and the others?"

"Am I so stupid?" Zhang Chi felt that he still didn't understand this little truth.

Melika nodded and said affirmatively, "Sometimes you don't have any brains."

"..." Zhang Chi was speechless for a while, but he didn't have time to argue with his wife now, if it really happened, it would be a good thing.

So Zhang Chi came to Melika's study with Xiao Pao and began to flip through it.

Finding things is so strange, I told you very clearly, you just can't find it, Zhang Chi is like this now, after searching in Melika's cabinet for a while, he couldn't find it.

In the end, it was Melika who really couldn't wait, so she came over and opened the cabinet directly, and found the box containing the pregnancy test stick at once.

Zhang Chi looked at Melika staring at him, feeling a little embarrassed.
