Leave the order and Joanna's proud figure data, and then wait for the dresses to come to your door beautifully... These three sets cost more than 40,000 US dollars, and it can basically be concluded that they are disposable consumables. For a suit, you can wear it for a long time — According to An Feng, who has been at least ten times, this is called a prodigal.

   But it doesn't matter, the wonderful and eye-catching defeat is worth the money.

An Feng really paid attention to it, maybe he will still be short of money in a year or two, but after that, he should encounter a situation where he has money and has nowhere to spend it. Apart from the occasional need for "self-realization" - that is, charity, investment Some luxury brands are not necessarily a waste.

   Try to beautify your reasons... An Feng told himself.

The family spent a good exotic holiday in New York, but An Feng and Joanna mainly enjoy the high-quality life, while the family members are visiting, the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Governor's Island...the famous scenic spots are all gone. Even though it was tiring, it was full of rewards.

  An Feng was lazy, so he didn't join their play team, but he also had other entertainments. When he came to New York, he naturally had to visit his friends. Matthew Sinclair was the first choice. Although every time I met him in California, he felt like a resident of the West, but in fact he lived in New York.

   is located on Long Island next to Queens. The helicopters of those financial giants who go to work in the high-rise buildings in Manhattan usually take off from Long Island, and because of this, this place has become a concentration place for the rich and famous. As a super rich man, Matthew couldn't help getting together.

  From the perspective of the helicopter, Matthew's home is quite regular-compared to her mother's luxurious style. Surrounded by mountains and rivers, it occupies a lake, with a vast green space and a tennis court, and a helipad is specially set up next to it. A big "H" is particularly conspicuous.

  The helicopter stopped on it.

   Matthew and his wife came out to greet him. After getting off the plane, An Feng hugged him warmly: "Your place is really good, you have occupied all the good seats!"

  Matthew said modestly: "I can only say that I came early, and the others were a step late."

  An Feng said: "Oh, just as low-key as your brother!"

  Matthew laughed, Bazel really didn't like to express himself.

   After greeting each other, enter the house as a guest. The interior design of the house is relatively trendy, with strong color contrast. Joanna looked around and admired it: "The layout is really beautiful, the colors are bright and energetic, Catherine must like it very much, right? The designer must have put a lot of thought into it."

  Matthew's wife, Christina, smiled and said: "Actually, I designed part of it and revised it five years ago. The theme should cater to the children's preferences."

   "So you are still a designer?" An Feng said.

   “A little part-time in college,” Christina said. An Feng opened his eyes. As the wife of a super rich man, she has always been very low-key and well-behaved, but she is not as good as Joanna's slightly expressive personality. To be precise, she should be Joanna twenty years later. youthful vigor.

  The maid served some desserts and fruits, and they ate while discussing the topic of house decoration. Last time Matthew said that he had plans to build a mansion in England.

Matthew smiled: "The castle I told you last time has actually been changed by Christina more than a dozen times. No matter how I change it, it can't add a lively style, and the space is too wide. Overthrow it and start over again. This time it is estimated to be a manor-style mansion."

  An Feng admired this perseverance: "You guys are so leisurely, if it were me, I would definitely not have the heart to cancel a plan that I have been thinking about for several years."

  Matthew glanced at Christina, held her hand and said, "We have a lot of time, and what we enjoy is the process of giving together, the result is secondary."

   They clasped their fingers and looked sweet.

  Joanna nodded in agreement: "This is the attitude of life, don't be dominated by time."

  Matthew issued an invitation: "Speaking of leisure, do you have time to watch a polo warm-up match? It will be tomorrow morning, in Nassau County not far from here."

  An Feng looked at Joanna. In fact, it doesn't matter where you go, it mainly depends on her schedule.

  She nodded, and An Feng said, "No problem, we will attend."

  There is a well-known polo field in Nassau County, and polo games are usually held in summer and autumn when the temperature is relatively high. Although it is only spring, it cannot stop the enthusiasm of polo lovers. Before coming here, I heard that Matthew likes these sports. An Feng has seen them before. He is very good at equestrian.

   As far as polo is concerned, it should have originated in China and was called "Jiju" in ancient times, and then flourished in Europe. This feeling is actually similar to the history of football. Polo is especially popular in the UK. It is said that equestrianism is an aristocratic sport, while polo is a king's sport.

Joanna introduced: "Official polo games are very expensive. There are 4 players in each team, but it consumes a lot of horses. A horse needs to be changed every two games. Therefore, each player must reserve at least 6 players. There are as many as 12 war horses, and the team has to raise 48 precious warm-blooded horses.”

  An Feng said: “I have heard jokes on the Internet, saying, 'You can play golf with an annual salary of 20,000 U.S. dollars, but you can play polo with an annual salary of 20 million U.S. dollars'.”

  Joanna shook her head: "When it comes to sports, F1 and football only burn money. Polo is very small, but because of the small number of people, it will appear that private expenses are very high."

  An Feng understood: "There are only four people in the team, and the average is really high."

Joanna continued: "Of course, very few rich people who play polo are professional athletes, so the game can be shortened to four quarters, and 8 people can prepare 16 horses. But it is not something that ordinary families can play, from equestrian training to the following It will take at least three years to coordinate horses to fight."

   "Ladies play polo less, right?" An Feng asked suddenly.

  Joanna smiled: "It's a little less, because this is a gentleman's sport, but it's not like there are no women's teams. In addition, the reason why women don't watch football...you will understand."

  An Feng was puzzled. When he arrived at the polo field, which was the size of 9 standard football fields, he immediately knew the reason: this was nothing more than a top-level social occasion moved outside. Men wear simple clothes, suits and leather shoes. They mainly watch the football, but the ladies are different, as grand as they are! If you're not afraid of being loud, you're not—there are brightly colored morning gowns and innovative top hats everywhere.

  Joanna solves the mystery: "The men sweat on the court, while the women compare themselves off the court."

  An Feng understood: "No wonder! This is a rare occasion where you can compete in the open air. If you wear a sportswear, I am afraid that you need a lot of self-confidence."

  Joanna smiled and straightened the hat on her head, and took his hand to enter the arena.

   No wonder she was dressed so grandly today, and even chose a hat and jewelry specially... An Feng and Matthew met, and they came to the open auditorium together.

  Someone served them champagne, Matthew said: "There are not too many people in the warm-up friendly match in spring, most of them are senior fans, and the atmosphere is not enough."

An Feng looked around. Although there were not many people, they were all dressed in various dresses. I am afraid that after the start of the competition, people's attention was not on the eight contestants who were fighting against each other, but on these people dressed in various luxurious dresses. My own women, plus those who like polo, are mostly rich and rich—this small group of people will definitely spend a lot of money on their wives, because this is also a man's face!

  Joanna asked: "Matthew, do you have any plans to play?"

  Matthew shook his head: "I'm just an ordinary hobby. I play occasionally. I don't have enough time to train. I'm not as free as the princes."

  Joanna explained to An Feng: "In the UK, this sport has been sought after by the royal family, including Prince Charles, Prince William and Prince Harry, who are all good polo players."

  An Feng understands, no wonder it is said to be the king's sport, these princes and crown princes are all keen on it, and those nobles can't praise this sport to the sky?

  After the warm-up match started, eight players from the two teams wore professional equipment, rode on majestic horses, held T-shaped bats, and started a fierce battle. An Feng is also a horse lover, but if he really wants to play this kind of sport that not only tests himself, but also coordinates the horses, he is really not confident.

The speed and intensity of polo are by no means comparable to ordinary sports. The horseshoes fly, the club sweeps the ground, and even some green grass is swept up. Where the horses step, usually there will be pieces of overturned turf . There are eight quarters in a game, and by the time of the intermission, the playing field is no longer level.

  Matthew drank the champagne in the glass, stood up and said, "It's time to play!"

  An Feng was puzzled, and Joanna explained: "The audience can also play and interact. There is a five-minute intermission, and we can go in and step on the turf together!"

   It's a lot of fun, and probably the only game where the spectators can interact. Many gentlemen and ladies joined hands to find the turf dug out by the horseshoes, put them back in place, and then stepped on them with their feet, which naturally left a lot of laughter.

  Joanna, who was walking in front, found a piece of turf, turned around and said to them: "Gentlemen! Come and move the turf back!"

Naturally, the lady would not move the turf by hand. An Feng and Matthew were very happy to step forward and move this large piece of turf back to the original position where it flew out. , but also have the pride of contributing to the players, so naturally they will be happy.

   In spring when the weather is still a little cold, you can exercise your body, enjoy the sunshine, and walk hand in hand on the field together. This time, since it was not a regular competition, the organizer gave a long tour time, like An Feng, just strolling on the lawn holding hands with each other. Some people also took the opportunity to meet other friends and chat with each other, and there were also single women who got together and were competing for their "top view".

Joanna said while walking: "The Royal Ascot in June is the most grand horse race in the world, where the low-key nobles gather together, and the Queen attends with a new look every year, and also attracts a large number of well-dressed ladies. Racing season is the equivalent of outdoor haute couture.”

  An Feng asked: "I guess, you also want to appear in a very good look in June?"

  Joanna laughed: "I can't fool you."

An Feng patted his chest: "Don't worry, our new plane will arrive at that time. Flying to the UK is just a matter of falling asleep for a few hours. I guarantee that you will make your appearance on the stage and be more dazzling than the princess. Steal their limelight and tell them, Give the lens to the young people!"
