Shi Wen, "It is possible, but ten grams per horse shouldn't be very useful."
Zhan Chongyun: "Maybe, I still want to give it a try."
Shi Wen and said, "Give the horses several times the amount, fifty grams per horse. Don't let them finish it all in one day; divide it up. Have a veterinarian help control the feeding, and stop immediately if any horse shows signs of discomfort."
Zhan Chongyun immediately assured him, "No problem, we take great care of the horses."
Shi Wen, "Send me a copy of the medical examination report when it comes, I'd like to take a look too."
Zhan Chongyun: "Okay. Then, Brother Shi, I'm going to sell my semen now."
Shi Wen agreed, "Sell it, as long as the horse isn't harmed."
Zhan Chongyun chuckled and said, "No, we're still hoping to get even higher profits; we certainly can't shoot ourselves in the foot."
After finishing his phone call Shi Wen, Zhan Chongyun hummed a song as he walked out.
A coach happened to walk by and, seeing his beaming face, said, "Mr. Zhan seems to be in a very good mood today."
Zhan Chongyun: "Of course! Our horse won the championship, how could I not be in a good mood?"
The coach smiled.
Zhan Chongyun smiled and patted the coach on the shoulder, "Everyone has worked hard these past few days. Let's go out for dinner tomorrow, it's on me. By the way, don't train tomorrow morning. Let's arrange for the horses to provide semen and then send it for testing."
The coach, aware that many people had recently expressed interest in purchasing the horses' semen, replied, "Understood."
Zhan Chongyun smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble. I'll come earlier tomorrow too."
After saying that, Zhan Chongyun walked away humming a tune.
Horses produce a fairly large amount of semen. During the breeding season, it can be collected once a day, with each collection yielding 30 to 50 milliliters. When selling semen, it is usually packaged into one-milliliter vials.
Even at 100 pesos per milliliter, they could earn tens of thousands of pesos a day just from that.
Even better, their horses just won a championship in an international competition, and now countless horse farms all over the world are emailing them inquiring about their horse semen. They have no fear of not being able to sell their horses.
As long as the volume keeps up, for the next period of time, they can just sit at the racecourse and count their money with their eyes closed.
What a wonderful life!
When Zhan Chongyun purchased the horses from Shi Wen, he signed a contract stipulating that the breeding of the horses would Shi Wen, and that the horses would be repurchased by Shi Wen's ranch after they retired.
Now, Zhan Chongyun's horse farm is preparing to sell the horses' semen, and both parties need to sign a supplementary agreement.
The supplementary agreement stipulates that the revenue from the sale of horse semen will be split 50/50 between the two parties, while Shi Wen will provide a certain amount of Cistanche deserticola.
For Shi Wen, this agreement is no different from sitting back and collecting money.
Aside from sending out a few packages, he hardly has to do anything else.
Shi Wen's ranch was so famous that many people had heard that the horses from his ranch were selling their semen and came to inquire about it.
Some people who weren't initially very interested in horses became more interested after hearing that his family's ranch was involved.
Some of these people who paid attention then became customers of Zhan Chongyun's side.
Because of the large base, there seem to be a lot more customers coming from Shi Wen.
Zhan Chongyun was so happy with the money that his hands were sore from receiving it.
He specifically called Shi Wen to tell him about it, "Brother Shi, why don't you give me some advertising? Your ranch's brand is so strong. As long as it's labeled as your ranch, customers will be extra willing to buy it."
Shi Wen, "Forget about advertising, it feels a bit strange. But you can use our ranch's name, I don't mind."
Even if we couldn't advertise, this is still good. Zhan Chongyun agreed, "Thank you, Brother Shi. I'll have them change to a new billboard tomorrow."
Shi Wen, "Let's switch. I'll send a batch of feed from the ranch over in the next couple of days. The corn silage we made before is almost ready; let the horses try it."
Zhan Chongyun: "Great! I was just thinking about how to improve their diet. They would be very happy if we had some silage corn."
Shi Wen of advice. "Don't feed them too much at once; first, test whether they are suited to silage corn."
Zhan Chongyun: "Okay, I'll talk to the zookeeper about it later."
It's no secret that Shi Wen's horses have achieved excellent results in competitions.
Because of this, many people came to inquire about the sale of horses on his ranch.
Although there are no horses available for sale on the ranch yet, it's no secret that they have pregnant mares.
Many people want to pre-order so they can take the foal away after it turns one month old.
Shi Wen didn't agree to any of them; he couldn't bear to sell his horse to someone unsuitable.
That day, Shi Wen heard that Baoye A Sai also wanted to go to Zhan Chongyun's place to buy horse semen.
Shi Wen specifically asked him, "Why did you buy that? Aren't these horses from your ranch?"
Baoye A Sai: "I wasn't very confident before, but now that I see Boss Zhan is raising them well, I want to give it a try again."
Shi Wen, "How about trying to raise horses again?"
Baoye A Sai: "What do you think? This is my old profession, and I've always been quite interested in it."
Shi Wen, "It's possible, but I feel like you're losing out. You sold these horses to me in the first place, and now you're going to buy their semen again. This back and forth will probably cost you a lot of money and effort."
Baoye A Sai paused for a moment. "I still want to give it a try."
Shi Wen and said, "How about we cooperate in raising horses, just like we did with cattle? Anyway, my family can't handle it all."
Baoye A Sai: "Huh? What?"
Shi Wen, "I suggested a joint horse breeding program. I'll provide the hay and horses, and you'll be responsible for feeding and training them. Don't you have experience in feeding and training horses? I don't have the energy to train them all, and it's a bit of a waste to raise so many horses."
Baoye A Sai's voice was filled with excitement. "Is it okay?"
