I became a horse racing tycoon in Hokkaido.

"Mr. Izumi, regarding the two newly purchased one-year-old racehorses..."

Arai Junpei scratched the back of his head and said.

If you don't speak up, you'll never get an answer.

"Oh, you mean that? Those two are going to the training ranch soon, so they won't be assigned here."

Yujin Izumi.

Spring and Autumn Equinoxes and Earth Star may never spend their entire life at the North Sea Ranch.

It's somewhat possible that Earth's planet could be decommissioned and its inhabitants could become breeding mares.

But he could also place Earth on the northern ranch.

"If there are racehorses coming, I will notify you in advance so you can prepare."

He went on to say that.

The future of Beihai Ranch will be the testing ground for his bloodline theory.

If it's not good enough, send it to an auction to sell; if it's good, keep it and put it under his name to participate in competitions.

If you can't run races in the central area, you can apply to become a local horse owner like Oi, and let your horse run dirt races in Oi. Once you have enough prize money, you can run races at other racetracks for higher rewards.

A racehorse can recoup its costs if the initial investment is small and the horse itself has a certain level of capability.

Yujin Izumi always has a chance to make his investment back, and if he's lucky, he can even make a small profit.

"Mr. Izumi, these two racehorses must have cost a lot of money, right?"

Arai Junpei was somewhat curious.

In his view, Izumi Hisahito wouldn't make any big moves in his first year.

"It cost more than 100 million in total, and the stallion was more expensive."

Izumi Hisahito has already transferred the money.

That much money simply passed through his account.

If he could, he would definitely like to buy a few more racehorses, but his finances simply don't allow him to do so.

"More than one hundred million... more than one hundred million..."

Arai Junpei was completely dazed after hearing this.

Needless to say, that price could buy countless ranches like theirs, and even more racehorses worth millions!

The boss has gone mad!

It cost so much just to buy two racehorses.

"Young Master Izumi, although the Northern Black Horse and Great Roar are very strong, these two stallions have never proven themselves. This is... far too expensive!"

Arai Junpei clutched his aching heart.

Their young master must have been tricked by bad people!

Before he came, he specifically studied the maternal lineage of the two horses. The North Black's offspring looked average, while the Big Hammer's offspring was a bit better.

"Choosing a stallion is an upfront investment. The cost is low in the first year, but once the results are achieved, the cost of breeding will increase several times over."

Yuji Izumi shook his head.

If he didn't know the future, he really wouldn't have had this kind of courage.

"Investing can involve buying some cheaper horses; racehorses produced by the Taiwan-based companies are guaranteed, but they are only a very small minority."

Junpei Arai advised.

After buying all that, no amount of money would be enough for Yujin Izumi.

The horse racing world is only so big; this story has definitely spread!

"I think Sanyu Ranch and Xiahebian Ranch are good. They also breed new stallions like Northern Black Horse and Da Ming Da Fang, and the prices are cheaper."

Arai Junpei continued:

"Chiyoda and Daiko Ranch are also good."

"The offspring of these two newly promoted stallions can be purchased for a maximum of 23 million from these ranches."

There's absolutely no need to spend that much money!

As for the two racehorses that Izumi Yujin recently bought, he has absolutely no belief that they will be able to achieve good results next year.

For a normal racehorse, winning its first race at three years and eight months is a victory!

This investment of over 100 million is definitely a waste!

Arai Junpei simply didn't believe that Izumi Yuujin had any good judgment in his first year, given how profound the subject of horse racing was.

"This is also to have some connection with the Taiwan Affairs Office, since they still control most of the country's resources."

Yuujin Izumi understood.

The ranch manager had absolutely no faith in his eyesight.

The ranches mentioned earlier have good products, but they can't compare to the two he chose!

Those who can climb to the top step by step and dominate for so many years must have real strength.

Several clubs under the Shetai Group produce good horses every year.

Or perhaps the champion of the first-tier competition was born in a ranch belonging to the Shetai system.

"Young master, how about... you take me with you next time you want to buy horses?"

Arai Junpei secretly observed Izumi Yuuhito's expression.

Six to seven thousand racehorses are born in China every year, but only a very small number can enter the Central Racecourse and win a championship in their career.

Only two percent of those who receive the hefty reward are actually awarded.

Only one percent of players can win a Class 1 championship!

How could his young master possibly find the most correct answer under limited circumstances?

"..."

Yuuji Izumi had a feeling he wanted to roll his eyes.

"Let's talk about it then."

He had absolutely no intention of taking the ranch manager with him to the auction.

After returning home, Junpei Arai complained to his family.

If Yuji Izumi continues to squander money like this, their ranch won't be far from bankruptcy.

Even if he is disliked, as the ranch manager, he must stand up when necessary!

Be prepared for tough times ahead.

He hoped to help Izumi Yujin make the horse racing business even better.

-----------------

Sapporo.

"Mr. Izumi, this is your package. Please sign for it."

The middle-aged man wearing a delivery bag took out a cardboard box and a receipt.

This is his second time here.

The first time he came, Izumi Yujin was not at home. After receiving the not-home notice, he made another appointment to visit.

"Just this one box?"

Yuji Izumi glanced at it and then signed his name.

This box contains books he bought about horse racing pedigrees.

To become a successful rancher, he needs to study more about the pedigree theory of racehorses.

He had already learned about it from various aspects, but he could continue to strengthen his knowledge in this area so that he could express his understanding when he met other ranchers and horse owners.

This aspect needs some improvement.

But looking at the future, he did know that the Golden Ship should be paired with the May Rose route. Although it didn't produce top-notch racehorses, it could still earn a hefty reward.

It would be best to find some stallions of muddy horse descent to be the mother and father of the Golden Ship.

This pairing is somewhat similar to Golden Journey x Mejiro McQueen.

This team successfully bred several famous horses that have gone down in history.

"This is the only one available. It was delivered yesterday, but you weren't home."

The middle-aged deliveryman nodded.

He then adjusted his hat.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Izumi Yuji glanced at it and then handed the receipt to the other party.

His life as a horse owner was quite easy.

Next, he booked a trip to Zhongshan Racecourse to watch the race; his plane ticket and seat were already confirmed.

The Zhongshan Racecourse is located in Chiba, and it's not far from the airport.

After watching the competition, Yuujin Izumi thought about staying in Tokyo for a few days and then seeing if he could go and see the two ponies he had bought.

Create a dedicated channel for horse racing.

Yuji Izumi had such an idea.

It can be used to record the careers of his racehorses, from when they were young to their first race win, documenting each step of their lives.

When the horses are on holiday, he can also update the daily life of the horses.

When I have nothing to do, I can do some live streaming.

"It's not hard work. I'm in charge of this area. You can contact me if you need anything mailed."

The postman bowed slightly and said.

Today's work is done; the mailman can go home now.

"it is good."

Yuji Izumi carried the box and went back.

Compared to the day I first moved in, the house feels a bit more lively now.

There are more green plants now.

There's a difference between houses that have been inhabited for a long time and houses that haven't been inhabited for a long time.
