Chapter 648: The opening of the Beijing Racecourse
Damei Garment Factory developed rapidly and created multiple brands. It established branches in Shimenzhuang and Pengcheng, with more than 5,000 workers. The clothes and shoes it produced were not only popular in China, but also exported overseas, earning a large amount of foreign exchange for the country. Li Damei was named one of the top ten private entrepreneurs in the country and enjoyed great success.
Of course, Liu Xialian's breeding business has developed rapidly. She has 3 million fat geese and 1 million ducks a year, both from her own breeding and from cooperative breeding. Millions of black-bone chickens are sold to Gangcheng, because people in Gangcheng love to make soup, and as long as the ingredients are good, they don't mind the price of food.
The wild boars, flying dragons and pheasants raised by my mother are also widely franchised, and pheasants and flying dragon birds are listed as bred animals.
Of course, the above are just a drizzle. The most surprising thing is that the two industries have grown extremely large, super huge.
The first one is Xu Guozhen's clinic. He registered a clinic in Hong Kong and launched liver-nourishing pills and spleen-stomach pills, which were sold for up to 5,000 Hong Kong dollars. However, there were many customers and it was often necessary to queue up for several days before they could buy one. A scalper would become rich if he could grab a liver-nourishing pill. Liu Xialian owned half of the shares of this clinic, and the net profit dividend was 6-7 million a year.
The second one is Baishan Martial Arts School. The head boxing coach Zhao Daxi was invited to compete overseas by chance. Unexpectedly, he won the gold belt of the boxing champion, the 90kg champion, and swept more than a dozen famous boxing champions. When he came back, he brought back a black boy who was dark and strong. When asked, he was found to be a boy who grew up in the slums. His name was Taisen and he worshipped Zhao Daxi as his master.
But who would have thought that Liu Xialian disliked this disciple so much that she strictly prohibited him from dating female students, which made Zhao Daxi confused. The martial arts school has trained thousands of cooks and drivers in recent years. Dozens of martial arts actors have provided hundreds of high-quality soldiers for the country. Now the county campus can no longer accommodate them, so the provincial capital gave a piece of land to build a campus with 5,000 people.
Principal Guo, Coach Zhao Daxi, and Coach Li Daniu became famous. Now the boxing industry recognizes Zhao Daxi as the boxing champion, and the Sanda industry also recognizes Zhao Daxi as the Sanda king. His fighting power is super strong. A person's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Once Zhao Daxi became famous, it was good for the school's enrollment, but more people came to challenge him.
Zhao Daxi was too lazy to take action, so he asked his American apprentice Tai Sen to take action. As a result, those so-called martial arts masters were beaten badly.
Baishan Martial Arts School's annual net profit is about 200,000 yuan. Although the money is small, the school is very well-known, and Zhao Daxi has earned millions from boxing overseas. The martial arts school has provided a large number of excellent employees for Liu Xialian's various industries, and the profit is not a little bit. You know, talent is the primary productive force.
In the past three years, Li Damei has had another son, a son and a daughter, and her family is happy.
Daya and Li Daniu gave birth to a son, and Erya Dianyan gave birth to a daughter. It is worth mentioning that these four people have learned the true teachings of Liu Xialian and have reached the pinnacle of Qi training. With a strength of nearly 2,000 kilograms and a speed five times that of an ordinary person, they can beat even a tiger or leopard with extremely quick reactions with their bare hands.
Liu Xialian gave birth to another son and a daughter. The eldest son was Dingyuan, the second son was Dingnan, and the third daughter was named Ying.
In the spring of 1985, at the beginning of April in the lunar calendar, the purchase of wild vegetables was completed, my third daughter, Xiao Yingzi, had turned one year old, and my eldest son was in kindergarten.
Zhao Hua was staring at the hundreds of fine horses at the Blueberry Garden Horse Farm, including thirty-five Arabian horses, thirty Anglo horses, twenty Orlov trotters, eighteen Quark horses, and fifteen thoroughbred horses.
All of them are first-class good horses, the bad ones have been sold.
Especially some racing-level quark horses, which can reach a short-distance speed of over 80 kilometers per hour. Huang Feidian, Jueying, Chitu, Bailong, Wuzhuima, Zhaoye Yushizi and so on are all world-famous good horses.
Zhao Hua frowned and asked Zhao Yong, "Fourth brother, I plan to go to the capital to open a horse farm. Do you dare to go with me?"
"Dare? What's there to be afraid of? A den of dragons and tigers, isn't it?"
"Okay, I'll discuss it with Xia Lian."
Zhao Hua came to the kimchi factory, and Liu Xia Lian was researching beef chili sauce.
As soon as Liu Xia Lian saw Zhao Hua's expression, she knew something was wrong, so the two of them went to the yard to talk.
"Xia Lian, I want to open a horse farm in Beijing. More than a hundred good horses will get moldy if left in Changbai Mountain."
"Okay, it's no fun to just open a horse farm. How much money do you have?"
"I made about three million from selling fruits, horses and mules over the years."
"Not bad, I know the Gu family has saved money. I'll give you another three million to open a Ji Province Guild Hall on a busy street in the city, mainly serving our local cuisine, which will complement the horse farm in the suburbs and attract business from each other. It's mainly to communicate with fellow villagers in Beijing and take care of each other."
"Okay, I didn't expect you to agree. I thought you wanted to tie me up at home."
"That's all bullshit. What woman doesn't want to enjoy a peaceful life? If you develop well in Beijing and earn about the same income, I will transfer the kimchi factory to someone else and focus on raising the children at home. It would be so nice to be a hands-off boss."
"Okay, don't worry."
"There's not much to be aware of when opening a racecourse. The only thing is that betting on races is strictly prohibited. This is a red line that must not be crossed. We are different here from Hong Kong. Anyone who crosses the line will die."
Zhao Hua nodded and said, "Don't worry, Xia Lian. I run an absolutely formal horse farm. It allows members to ride horses, sells horse breeds, and undertakes some equestrian performances. That's all."
"Okay, go ahead. Leave one-third of the staff at the stable for me. If you have any questions, contact me immediately. Don't try to be brave."
"Okay, don't worry, I won't show off."
Zhao Hua was so happy when he returned to the horse farm, like a child who had asked his parents for money.
"Fourth brother, fourth brother, I've made a fortune. Xia Lian gave me another three million and asked me to open a Ji Province Guild Hall in the capital. I'll take two-thirds of the horses here."
"Tsk tsk, my sister-in-law is really generous. She is willing to spend money. These horses are worth a lot of money."
"We can't sell them even if they are worth money. We can only sell their offspring. These are all stallions."
It can be said that Zhao Hua had already taken action. Although he did not invest, he asked someone to find a 300-acre piece of wasteland in the northern suburbs of Beijing, which is only 30 minutes' drive from the city. A high-end horse farm like his has absolutely no ordinary clients. All of them are first-class wealthy or noble.
The Jilin Provincial Guild Hall was opened in Houhai. It bought a residential site of an old royal palace, about four or five acres of land, and built a three-story building, about 5,000 square meters. The first and second floors are for dining, and the third floor is for guest rooms.
The construction of the clubhouse took a long time and is expected to be completed next year, but the racecourse was completed very quickly in just three months and was featured on CCTV on the opening day.
Zhao Hua and Zhao Yong were very good at arranging the scene. They selected the twenty best horses, took the riders to dress up in Han and Tang dynasty armor and rode around on horseback. CCTV, evening newspapers, and radio stations were all featured, and they didn't spend a penny.
