[I couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night and wrote a little more. Thank you Zhibeiyouyu for the big red envelope and monthly pass, and thank you Xiao Wu for the generous reward]

Dubai, Huaxia City, Wudong Trading Branch. High-speed update. Li Huqiu stepped in. Behind the counter, Zhang Yongbao closed his eyes and rested, as if unaware.

Sophie, who was behind the King of Thieves, was about to follow when she suddenly saw a Chrysler commercial vehicle across the street just parked.

"I just saw a beautiful shawl. I'll go over and have a look." Sophie made a random excuse and ran to the business car.

Li Huqiu looked back and said with a smile: "Buy whatever you like, and don't save money for me."

Zhang Yongbao took out a black metal rod from under the counter without saying a word and placed it on the counter. Li Huqiu walked over, took it and turned it over a few times, nodded and said: "It's okay, that's what it looks like, that's what it means."

It would be better if the thing could be used seriously."

Zhang Yongbao said: "It won't be a problem." He added: "But after it is made, it will take four good horses to pull it."

Li Huqiu chuckled: "Buying four good horses in the Middle East is much more expensive than buying four good cars."

Zhang Yongbao smiled and said: "How can it be more expensive than our carriage?"

Li Huqiu didn't answer and asked: "Have arrangements been made for Dongyang's return to China?"

Zhang Yongbao said: "Head of the club, you owe Mr. Xie a favor for this matter."

Li Huqiu said: "What you owe is what you owe. Dongyang has shown his face this time. If he stays here, he will show his face sooner or later. Letting him return to China is a last resort." He then asked: "How far has the carriage factory progressed?"

Zhang Yongbao nodded, "The Indian guy has moved away. The people Mr. Xie borrowed are all ready-made, and the design drawings of equipment and tools are all ready. The first one can be built within three days at the latest."

Li Huqiu said: "Time is urgent, the sooner the better. The Middle East Bank can hide it for the time being. I am afraid that the construction drawings of the subway tunnel have been tampered with and will be exposed soon. There is no guarantee that there will be no clever ones by then."

People associate this incident with the robbery, so we'd better finish the work and transport the things back to the country within this month."

Zhang Yongbao calmly put the metal rod back under the counter. As soon as Sophie stepped through the door, she heard Li Huqiu talking: "You are so insincere in this business. You are allowed to ask for prices all over the sky, but you are not allowed to sit on the ground."

Pay back the money, then what else is there to talk about?" Sophie was about to come over and ask what was going on, but Li Huqiu had turned and walked towards the door, smiled at her and asked: "What did Smith say?"

Sophie followed Li Huqiu out of the store in confusion and said: "I didn't say anything, just asking about the progress of the matter."

Li Huqiu smiled slightly and said, "Don't always cover up for me, but also think more about yourself. I am sincere in cooperating with Smith. The reason why I can't completely rest assured is that I am mainly worried that he will kill the donkey just to relieve his friction. After all, I am the same

There is a deep hatred between CIA and China that cannot be resolved."

Sophie said: "If you can accomplish this big thing, you will be America's best friend, and all the deep hatred will disappear. Smith will not deal with you."

Li Huqiu hugged her and kissed her gently, saying: "I don't believe him but I believe you." Sophie's heart was shaking, and she lowered her head in the Thief King's arms, hiding the sadness on her face. She was silent for a moment before asking.

Li Huqiu said: "Where are you going to go next?" Li Huqiu said: "I made an appointment with Said to see horses. I have bought a carriage factory that specializes in producing luxury carriages and sells them to the rich and powerful people in the Middle East who love horses. No

Not a good horse."

****

Said's family lives on Palm Road in the north of Dubai. There are four identical villas built in one yard. No matter the carvings or decorations, there is no difference. Even the palm trees planted in front of each villa are the same height. Take a closer look.

, there is a garage on the first floor of each villa, and the cars parked inside are exactly the same, all silver-gray Porsches. Li Huqiu teased Said: "The news a while ago said that a scientist cloned a sheep.

Could it be that all your houses are clones?"

Said smiled bitterly and scratched his head and told Li Huqiu that there was a reason for this.

It turns out that in Arab countries, men are legally allowed to marry 4 wives. This is worth drooling over for many male compatriots who are monogamous all over the world. However, it is true that 4 wives are married locally.

Men are still in the minority. Because although this country allows you to marry 4 wives, it requires that since you want to marry 4 wives, you must treat all 4 wives equally. In other words, you cannot favor only one, and all wives must live separately.

At the very least, you must have a big enough house, and what one wife has, the other wives must also have. For example, if you particularly love one of them and want to buy a high-end villa for her to live in, if you have other wives,

, you have to be mentally prepared to have several wives buy several houses. As long as you are unfair and do not treat everyone equally, your wife can go to court to sue you, and then you will only be ruined.

Finally, Said said: "I don't know how much I regret marrying four wives instead of finding four lovers and being nagged by them all day long."

Li Huqiu laughed loudly and said, "You are a happy guy. Men all over the world, including me, dream of having the same troubles as you. You are so good at it."

Said pressed the Kuaiyitong beside his ear and asked Sophie on the side in English: "What does the sentence Mr. Li just said mean? Why can't Kuaiyitong translate it?"

How do you say in English "You get a bargain but you still behave well"? Sophie thought for a moment and translated wittily: "He said you ate delicious turkey and complained that chicken raised your cholesterol."

Said smiled intelligently, "It's a wonderful description, but it really speaks to my heart. Every one of them is beautiful." He added, "Let's not talk about this anymore, let's go see the horses." Li Hu

Qiu said: "Guests are welcome." Sophie naturally wanted to follow, but Said waved his hand and said seriously: "Women are not allowed to enter the stable. Please respect our customs." Sophie looked dissatisfied.

"I have asked my wife to prepare Arabic naan, shawarma and delicious Dubai pickles for you. You can stay here and enjoy it, but the stable is not a place for women."

." Sophie glanced at Li Huqiu, and the thief king spread his hands and said: "You know, there are some customs in the Middle East that must be respected."

stable.

Li Huqiu looked at a dozen Arabian horses with a rare expression of envy. Nong Junling was grooming a white horse with graceful and strong lines. It seemed that Said's rule that women were not allowed to enter the stables was being followed.

It's a double standard.

Nong Junling raised his head and said hello to Huqiu, "You're here."

"A pure-blooded Arabian horse is described as "flying without wings and winning without a sword." Said took a handful of grass and fed it to the white horse in the stable. He introduced: "Horses are the friends of Arab men, and they are loyal.

Servants are the legs of a warrior and the spirit of a warrior!"

Li Huqiu said: "Chinese men like to say that dogs and horses are the most loyal friends of mankind."

Nong Junling just likes to argue with Huqiu: "Maybe they have just developed a dependence on humans. They would rather be slaves of humans than dare to survive independently."

"Most Arab men know how to choose horses. We believe that a good horse can not only be a good companion for you at ordinary times, but can even save our lives in the most dangerous times. As long as people do some good to a horse, it will last forever.

You can't forget it. But no matter how good you are to a person, he will forget it in the blink of an eye." Said obviously disagreed with Nong Junling's statement, and retorted with an unhappy look on his face: "These horses are a gift from God.

It should be respected, cherished, and even worshiped."

Said brought out the great god Allah, and Nong Junling was immediately speechless. Said picked up another handful of grass and said, "Do you know? The grass I have is flown in from Australia, every Wednesday

Once upon a time, only grass that meets the requirements in all indicators can enter the stables of Arab noble men."

Li Huqiu said: "The horse I want to buy is used to pull carts. It is best to be a tall horse with strong strength and endurance, and a majestic appearance."

The Arabian horse is the dream mount of the light cavalry, and is by no means suitable for pulling carts. Said is a great expert in horse racing. He is eloquent and eloquent when it comes to horse racing.

The manager of the world's first luxury hotel is just the illegitimate son of Dubai Crown Prince Amaq and his lover. Although he is deeply loved and trusted by the crown prince, he has long been destined to miss the throne in this life, so he spends most of his energy on

When it comes to eating, drinking and having fun, in the Middle East, it is a country bumpkin thing for rich people to play with expensive cars. Any purebred Arabian horse in Said's stable is worth a hundred times as much as the $100,000 Porsche parked in the garage in front.

"There are three kinds of purebred horses in the world today: Bloodhorse, Arabian horse and British Shire horse. Among them, Bloodhorse is the purest horse breed. Both Arabian horses and Shire horses have the bloodline and genes of Bloodhorse.

Comparing the three types of horses, the sweat horse is the fastest, but the Arabian horse has the best endurance, is good at long-distance events, and is slightly slower than the sweat horse."

Li Huqiu interjected: "I know this. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, the sweaty horse brought endless disasters to the people of the Western Regions. At that time, this kind of horse was called Tianma." Said said: "It turns out there are still

Mr. Li is really knowledgeable about this matter. Do you know about the British Shire Horse?" Li Huqiu shook his head honestly. Said was slightly proud and continued to introduce: "The uses of horses can be roughly divided into two categories: pulling.

They are used for riding and riding, and the Shire horse is the most noble draft horse in the world, and it is also the strongest and largest horse in the world. This kind of horse can pull 5 tons of weight, and some breweries in the UK still let them work.

.”

The shoulder height of this kind of horse is often more than 2 meters, and it is at least 26 meters from the top of the head to the soles of the feet. The adult male weighs more than one ton, with the highest record of 1.8 tons! Their feet have long thin hairs, which seem to have protective

The number of this kind of horses dropped sharply after World War II. So far, there are no more than 20,000 such horses in the world, only slightly more than sweat horses. In the 18th and 19th centuries, this kind of horse was once the British

A sharp weapon for conquering all directions, whether in Arabia or further east in China, these two purebred horses that can pull heavy artillery and walk in the mountains have left proud footprints.

Said was talking about the era of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets, which was the most humiliating period in Chinese history. Li Huqiu's face darkened and he asked, "Are you proud of it?" Said shook his head and said, "Of course.

No! The best horse in the hearts of Arab men is always the Arabian horse, and the best warrior is always the Arabian light cavalry, but it is undeniable that the Shire horse is indeed the best draft horse and the one that best meets your needs."

Li Huqiu asked: "Where can I buy this kind of horse?"

Said said: "It depends on how many horses you need. If they are less than ten horses, you can buy them in Dubai."

"I need three hundred to four hundred horses, maybe more." Li Huqiu said: "What I want to make is the most luxurious carriage in the world."

Said said: "This kind of horse is only suitable for pulling carts, and its competitive value is not high, so it is not very expensive. But the number you need is too many, almost close to the annual export quota stipulated by the British Horse Industry Association, even if I

It is also difficult to buy. Although the Holy Master has given instructions and requires me to fully cooperate with your needs, this is something beyond my ability."

Li Huqiu said: "You try your best to buy them. If there are not enough, use other draft horses instead."

Said glanced at Nong Junling, who looked impatient, and smiled knowingly, "You need it urgently, I will place the order right away."

Only Li Huqiu and Nong Junling were left in the stable.

Nong Junling asked: "Li Huqiu, when do you plan to leave for Rome?"

Li Huqiu said: "This matter cannot be rushed. This is something that goes against the whole of Europe and the Western world. Of course, we should be cautious. According to my recent investigation, it has been visited by Okansuk and the others since the last time.

Later, the precautionary measures were more than twice as strict as in the past. You are entangled between Islam and Christianity. You say a monument of revelation is yours, but they say it is theirs. They all regard this thing as huge as the sky.

If I really accomplish this, I will have offended the whole world."

Nong Junling said: "Who do you think you haven't offended now?" She counted them with her fingers and said: "The CIA in the United States hates you to the core. There are several red giants in China who are eager to eat your flesh and sleep on your skin. There are also Si

The Spencer family." Li Huqiu interrupted: "This shouldn't be a great opponent." Nong Junling rolled his eyes at him, "You are so ignorant. Considering that you were teased by me once, why don't you give me a chance?

You should educate yourself, so that you won’t die without knowing how you died.”

The Spencer family is the elder family of the Anglo-Saxon Federation of 1840, and is also an in-law of the Magal family, the family of the honorary lifelong chairman of the Federation. In other words, they are one of the several major families that have dominated the world situation for more than a century. Regardless.

Whether in Britain or the United States, or even the entire Western world, this joint committee of nobles, composed of thirty-five British dignitaries who resigned from the House of Lords in 1840, has extraordinary influence. In 1840, England's national power was at its peak, almost unparalleled in the world.

So some ambitious people thought that England should conquer the backward and outdated so-called Celestial Kingdom in the Far East. Others thought that it was risky to expedition to a large and wealthy country, and that the country with rich products should be brought into the civilized world.
