I became a horse racing tycoon in Hokkaido.

"Everything has been normal these past few months, and Carikante is in good health."

Arai Junpei has been preoccupied with it lately.

This is their ranch's most important asset.

Be extra careful during the first few months.

"It looks like there's no problem at all. There will be more racehorses retiring next year."

Yuhito Izumi will not keep too many breeding mares.

This is a burden for him personally and for the ranch, making large-scale farming a difficult task.

As for cultivating females on his own ranch, he intends to focus on Earth and Freedom Island.

A mother with multiple championships guarantees her female lineage.

Their offspring will continue to thrive in the North Sea pastures.

This requires long-term planning.

Once this line is truly established, Beihai Ranch will be able to become a ranch with considerable strength.

"I've also been continuing to learn about this recently."

Junpei Arai is improving himself, and he is also nurturing the next generation.

The arrival of Yujin Izumi signifies a change in the ranch's operating model.

"Keep an eye out for them. If a suitable person comes along, we can find someone else to come over."

Yuji Izumi is willing to spend money here.

Once the scale grows larger, the current number of staff at Beihai Ranch will definitely not be enough.

His racehorses will gradually graze here.

After finishing the Emperor's Triumph in the snow-capped mountains, they will spend their summer vacation at the Beihai Ranch.

His competition in the second half of the year and Yujin Izumi haven't even started thinking about it yet; the only thing that's certain is the Tokyo Grand Prix at the end of the year.

This race is similar in nature to the Arima Kinen race on turf at the end of the year.

A mud race worth 100 million.

The prestige of a Tier 1 tournament is determined by the prize money for the first-place winner.

"Then I'll keep a close eye on the recent personnel changes."

Junpei Arai could sense Hisahito Izumi's ambition.

If the ranch wants to continue to grow, the current number of people is definitely not enough.

"Keep an eye on them, and if they're suitable, we'll bring them in. We'll definitely be expanding our staff next year."

Izumi Hisahito's economic situation will improve rapidly next year.

At that time, he no longer worried about his financial situation.

*Sizzle*

*Sizzle*

Calicante thought the two-legged creatures' hands were really useful.

You can scratch anywhere that itches.

After retiring, its life got better and better.

Every day was just eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating. At the appointed time, they would go from the stable to the pasture to play, and then return to the stable to sleep when it got dark.

That's why Yujin Izumi said it had gotten fat.

Yuji Izumi also recalled a time when a mare was too fat.

The ranch staff thought it was pregnant, but it turned out it was just too fat.

"Yes, young master."

Arai Junpei's workload increased once again.

The staff at Beihai Ranch will need to be reorganized next year.

"You go ahead and get busy, someone will come to pick me up in a bit."

Yuji Izumi waved his hand.

He was waiting for Matsumoto Yu to drive over and take him to the Northern Ranch, where they would discuss the purchase of Liberty Island face-to-face.

Calicante was still enjoying a massage from Yujin Izumi.

The comfortable expression on his face said it all.

"Um."

Arai Junpei nodded and left.

He's not actually that busy.

"Come on, little wine, give your fans an update on what's been going on lately."

Yuji Izumi took out his small camera and started taking pictures.

In winter it's still the fluffy version, but in summer it's just chubby.

It's hard to see any muscle definition anymore.

Neigh—

Calicante responded with a shout.

Although it didn't understand, it heard its own name.

Yuji Izumi really likes Calicut's personality.

Calicante will definitely retire at the North Sea Ranch in the future. As for whether any good females will emerge, that depends on fate.

In terms of lineage alone, it is indeed quite good.

The Calicuts have a very modern and excellent bloodline, but their maternal lineage is only so-so.

The price of offspring is mainly determined by the performance of the maternal line.

Izumi Yujin arrived at the northern ranch in the afternoon.

Fumihiko Nakajima.

This time, Izumi met the ranch manager of the northern ranch.

Meanwhile, the one-year-old Liberty Island was grazing on the grassland with other one-year-old mares.

Freedom Island's little brother has been born, so Freedom Island needs to play with the other little ones.

Although it was a little difficult to get used to at first, horse racing is about learning to be alone and independent.

"Manager Nakajima, our price is already quite good. Although this bloodline is good, it ultimately failed to prove itself in the domestic market."

"The evaluation of Sister Half-Sister of Liberty Island is not very high."

Yutaka Matsumoto was the main force in these negotiations.

He is confident that he can bring the price down completely.

"We spent a lot of money to bring in this mare, and the first foal we had sold for more than 200 million yuan."

Fumihiko Nakajima will definitely fight for the ranch's interests.

Whether this female connection will be successful or not, nobody knows.

"This is the second year that Izumi-kun has been planning to invest heavily in the northern ranch, so the price is still more favorable."

"We helped this racehorse achieve its goal, and Northern Ranch also benefits from it."

Yu Matsumoto felt that this matter had a chance.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have met Fumihiko Nakajima this time.

"Um..."

Fumihiko Nakajima glanced at Hisahito Izumi, who was intently watching the horses.

Last year, Yujin Izumi spent a lot of money to buy two racehorses.

These individuals have the potential to become high-quality customers for Northern Ranches.

"Manager Nakajima, I really think highly of this kid. As long as the price is right, everything will be fine."

"We've already had a great collaboration once."

Yujin Izumi.

"Then let's lower the price by another ten million compared to the price we agreed on last time."

Fumihiko Nakajima said.

What's so great about a one-year-old foal, especially since its first litter is likely to be a bottom foal?

They are still considering this year which of the pony and its half-brother to put up for auction.

Now the Northern Ranch doesn't need to make any comments about this.

"make a deal!"

Yu Matsumoto was afraid the other party would regret it.

This was much lower than he and Izumi Yujin had expected.

Fumihiko Nakajima paused for a moment.

Did he give me a discount?

The Yankees' Rose is still young and can have several more kids in the future, so selling this kid with the sledgehammer at a high price isn't a big problem.

"Thank you for your trust in me, Manager Nakajima."

Yuji Izumi smiled and shook hands with Fumihiko Nakajima.

This deal is a done deal.

130 million.

In order to buy the island of Liberty, Izumi Yuujin ultimately paid a lot of money.

But the value that will be generated in the future is definitely not something that can be measured by just over 100 million.

This time, however, Yuji Izumi will need to pay in installments.

I spent just as much as last year.

However, considering that it's possible to directly buy a good female and acquire a powerful mare, it's all worthwhile.

"We would also like to thank Izumi-kun for his support of our ranch."

"That's natural; racehorses produced on northern ranches have a very high guarantee."

Yuji Izumi and Fumihiko Nakajima exchanged polite greetings.

Fumihiko Nakajima knew that Hisahito Izumi had bought a batch of mud horses with great potential, and that more than 100 million yen was not a problem for him at all.

His work with Izumi Yujin has ended, and the subsequent procedures have been handed over to Matsumoto Yu.

He didn't have the time or inclination to deal with these things.

As a rancher, he only needs to control the main direction.
