Chapter 115 Dubai Style

The Burj Al Arab in Dubai is worthy of being a seven-star hotel, and the taxi provided to the guests is a Rolls-Royce Phantom, which is usually mainly responsible for picking up and dropping off guests from the airport, but for the identity of Wahab, it directly made a sightseeing car for Xiao Peng and the two.

The first time he sat in such a luxury car, Xiao Peng was also excited.

The broken down Land Rover has been handed over to the hotel staff to deal with, and Murtadi gave Xiao Peng and others a tour guide, introducing Xiao Peng and the others to the nearby customs.

"Mr. Xiao, look, this is the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world, with a total height of 828 meters and 162 floors, do you want to go up and have a look?" asked Murtidi.

Xiao Peng scratched his head: "This, I've only heard of the Burj Khalifa, it's the place where Mission Impossible was filmed, isn't it?

Murdei explained: "Oh, this Burj Khalifa is the Burj Khalifa. There is not much oil in Dubai, and for ordinary people, there is not much oil, so it will be extracted slowly, and the water will flow for a long time, right? But Dubai is not like this, but all the oil is emptied, and after turning it into money, it has developed tourism and trade, and has found a designer to design high-rise buildings, but because of the lack of financial support, many of them are now beginning to be unfinished. In fact, this Burj Khalifa has been unfinished since 2009, and in the end it can only be called for help like Abu Dhabi, and finally Abu Dhabi Sheikh Khalifa Zayed paid for the construction of this tower, but the naming right was also given to Abu Dhabi, so now it is not called Burj Khalifa, but called Burj Khalifa. After speaking, he pointed to the side of the road: "Look at the stone monument next to the fountain." It was a monument erected by the Khalifa Sheikh of Abu Aza. ”

Xiao Peng looked at it, there was a fountain next to the Burj Khalifa, and there was a monument next to the fountain, which said 'Thank you, Sheikh Mohammed, for your kindness' Sheikh Mohammed, for your kindness'Sheikh Mohammed, thank you for your kindness?

Yang Meng looked left and right in the car, and said to Xiao Peng: "Xiao Peng, can you help me ask, where is the building where the movie Super Seven was filmed?"

In "Fast and Furious VII", the most classic shot is the shot of the two driving from one building to another, which is called a thrill.

Xiao Peng looked at Yang Meng speechlessly: "Dude, don't show your timidity, okay? That's not Dubai, that's Abu Dhabi! That's Jumeirah Emirates United Towers Hotel." Don't think it's Dubai. Purely in terms of architecture and scenery, Dubai is not as good as Abu Dhabi, after all, the rich bird is big, Abu Dhabi is rich, and it can be tossed more than Dubai. Isn't this Burj Al Arab Hotel seven stars? The Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi is eight stars! How do you fight? But Dubai is more inclusive than Abu Dhabi. ”

However, I have to admit that Dubai is on the side of the Persian Gulf, and it is very beautifully built, such as the Palm Island, which can be called the 'eighth wonder of the world'.

The Palm is one of the world's largest land regeneration projects, consisting of four island groups: 'Palm Jumeirah', 'Palm Alishan', 'Palm Deira' and 'World Island'. At a cost of $14 billion, it was made entirely of sand and rock. A total of 12,000 private houses and more than 10,000 apartments on the island have all been sold out, and those who live here are either celebrities or rich people, and it is rumored that Faye Wong has a villa here. Amenities: an underwater hotel, an indoor ski resort, cinema and more. It is the largest coastal artificial island in the world. Driving around it, Xiao Peng had to sigh, this is worthy of a place where rich people live, and the environment is really good. There is also a six-star hotel called 'Atlantis', but a few people didn't go in to see it.

"Dubai is all about being a kid. "Dubai's six-star hotels are closed to tourists except for dining. When you arrive in Abu Dhabi, even the Emirates Palace Hotel is free to wander in. ”

However, their driver was also a very interesting person, and after less than an hour of slipping, he shouted to go back to the hotel.

Xiao Peng was stunned: "Murdei, how long have you been playing, why do you have to go back?"

Murtaidi explained: "The new town is so small, everything that should be seen is finished, and there is nothing to see anymore. That's why he said it would be more appropriate for us to go back to the hotel. ”

"Wouldn't it, Dubai is so small?" Xiao Peng was puzzled. "Finished reading it in less than an hour?"

"Of course it's not so small, we're looking at the new town, and the old town. Murtadi explains: "But there is no comparison between the old town and the new town. ”

Xiao Peng smiled: "No matter how incomparable, it's Dubai, isn't it?"

The driver's face was a little hesitant, and after thinking about it for a while, he nodded in agreement and drove to the old town. It's not far, more than ten minutes away.

When Xiao Peng saw the old city of Dubai, he was directly dumbfounded: What about the luxury cars that he said were good? What about the local tyrants who said he was good? Xiao Peng suddenly felt that he was in a small town in India or Makistan. China's county towns are much stronger than here!

Yang Meng looked at the old city of Dubai, and he was also confused: ", don't you say it on the Internet? If one day, 'I have nothing to rely on, send me to Dubai to pick up garbage', how can this Nima pick up garbage? This is more county than the county seat." ”

Xiao Peng translated the words to Murtaidi, who smiled: "Actually, it was really good to pick up garbage in Dubai in the early years, and the Dubai people here constantly change the furniture they don't want at home, basically every two years, and they are all very good and expensive furniture." But since the Chinese set up a free 'moving company', there is nothing to pick up when they want to pick up garbage. ”

Listening to Murtadi's words, Xiao Peng smiled happily. Yang Meng asked curiously, and he couldn't laugh when he heard it. Xiao Peng waved his hand: "Forget it, I can see it, this is a place where rich people can make you marvel more, and poor people can also make you marvel more." ”

Yang Meng said: "Look at Beijing, there is the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, the high-end clubs in the alleys, but there are also a patch of Beipiao outside the Sixth Ring Road that crowds into the city at five o'clock in the morning; you look at Hong Kong, there are the bustling night scenes of Causeway Bay, the beautiful fairy tales of Disney, and the 'coffin room' of a few square meters.

Xiao Peng listened to Yang Meng's words, and his expression changed: ", I didn't expect to be able to say such a big truth from your mouth? Is this really the end of the world coming?"

"I'll you!" Yang scolded.

Murtadi knew Yang Meng's words and said: "The old city is now generally inhabited by foreign workers, for example, the previous place is quite ironic, called 'Golden Township', but it is actually a large labor camp, where more than 300,000 foreign laborers live, working early and late with low wages. All places in the world are the same, it only makes you focus on the good and hide the bad. ”

Xiao Peng shrugged: "Okay, let you say that, this Dubai is also quite boring." Shall we go back?"

Yang Meng said, "Wait, find a place to buy some wine first, I want to have a good drink today." ”

When Xiao Peng heard this, he nodded: "I want to lie in the bathtub and drink a few drinks now." ”

Murtaidi took the two directly to the airport and bought alcohol and cigarettes in the duty-free shop, although in Dubai, you can find bars to drink, but you can't take the alcohol away, and if you want to take the alcohol away, you must have a permit. That is, Murtaidi handled the documents for the two of them.

The two of them were also out of the way, and the wine was carried into the car one by one. I don't know, I thought the two of them were selling alcohol. You know, buying wine in Dubai is really not cheap, but there is also an advantage, at Dubai airport, you can find almost all the famous Chinese liquor: Moutai, Fenjiu, Dream Blue, Guojiao 1573, Wuliangye, etc., etc., but the price is really not cheap, a bottle of Moutai costs more than 800 dirhams, and it costs 1,500 bottles to exchange for RMB. But there's no fake wine here!

Murdedi is more experienced, and introduced the two to a franchise called 'Le Clos', which mainly deals in famous wineries in the world's major production regions, and there are many senior points to choose from, and some Bordeaux fourth and fifth grade wines are very friendly at prices.

But Xiao Peng is optimistic about the whisky here, the Japanese whisky that has been grabbed elsewhere and the single malt whisky of good quality, which is almost unlimited here. When you go back, you must bring more, even if you declare customs and pay more taxes.

When they returned to the Burj Al Arab, they saw a strange sight: a luxurious Rolls-Royce Phantom came to a halt, which was not unusual, because the car was used to transport customers to the airport. There are a few more at the Burj Al Arab.

The problem is that the people who got out of the car were neither dignitaries nor celebrities, but two Chinese wearing pants and slippers, carrying large and small bottles of wine from the car. Is this a Rolls-Royce as a truck?

There was a white robe sitting upside down in the co-pilot seat of a Rolls-Royce, but even he was holding two bottles of wine?

Even the hotel bellman didn't come back to his senses, and was stunned for a long time before pushing the luggage cart over.

"That。。。。。。 You should use the freight elevator to transport the goods. The porter complained to Xiao Peng, Xiao Peng was stunned, is this treating them as porters?

Xiao Peng didn't explain, pointed to the driver of the Rolls-Royce and said, "I really don't blame me for this, they parked the car here directly." ”

The bellman looked at the direction of Xiao Peng's finger, thinking that Xiao Peng was talking about the white-robed Murtadi in the car, and nodded. He whispered: "These white robes are really, and they don't consider the feelings of others, so it's really 。。。。。。 for you to move things in front of a large public." Alas. After speaking, he helped Xiao Peng and the others put the wine on the luggage cart.

Xiao Peng shrugged his shoulders and said: "It's okay, my eyes are on others, just look at it, I care about other people's opinions every day, and I can't live anymore?"

The porter gave a thumbs up: "You are the most carefree porter I have ever seen." My name is Rahman, Pakistani and it's a pleasure to meet you. ”

"Eh, my name is Xiao Peng, Chinese. Xiao Peng also introduced himself. After saying that, the two of them said in unison, "BROTHER!" and laughed together. In Dubai, the largest number of expats are Indians, followed by Pakistanis.

Rahman laughed a few times and quickly suppressed his smile: "Let's move the things back first, and we'll talk in detail in the future, I don't want to be deducted from my salary." ”

Xiao Peng nodded, and moved the wine to the luggage cart with Yang Meng. The wine he bought was varied, so it was all small boxes, which made it more difficult to load, so the loading speed was not fast.

Seeing that the wine was about to be loaded, Rahman was about to carry it in, but he saw two Burj Al Arab security guards walking out with a woman with fuchsia hair and sunglasses. The woman was saying something in broken English, but the two security guards kept shaking their heads and took her out.

Xiao Peng didn't care about this matter, but the woman suddenly pointed to Xiao Peng and said to the two security guards, the security guard looked at Xiao Peng with a puzzled face, the woman broke away from the two, ran to Xiao Peng's side, grabbed Xiao Peng's arm, kissed Xiao Peng's face very affectionately, but whispered in Xiao Peng's ear: "It's all Chinese, do me a favor." I'll thank you so much when I look back!"

Before Xiao Peng could react to anything, the security guard had already walked over: "Sir, is this lady your friend?"

Although Xiao Peng is still confused, when he hears the girl's Chinese, it is called a cordial. Xiao Peng nodded: "That's right, this is my friend." ”

The security guard looked at Xiao Peng and the fuchsia haired girl with a hesitant expression, but snorted coldly: "Even if it's a friend, you can't come to our hotel with everyone, why don't you porters take the freight elevator?"

Before Xiao Peng could speak, Murdei walked over and looked at the two security guards: "I am Murdei bin Aziz bin Awad bin Laden, the head of foreign affairs of the Saudi royal family. I would like to meet with your manager, and I would like to ask why you treat our Wahhab Al-Saud prince's distinguished guests with such an attitude. If I don't give me a reasonable explanation, I would like to lodge the most serious protest against you. ”

The two security guards were dumbfounded, and Xiao Peng was also a little dumbfounded, I'll go, this Murtaidi is also a big kind of backstage? Just look at his name, he and the bin Laden who played the explosion are relatives? It turned out to be a grandfather?

Thinking of this, Xiao Peng reacted that bin Laden who played with the bomb was also a Saudi。。。。。。 I'm so scared, I'm afraid.

The only thing that makes Xiao Peng feel relieved is that even if they are relatives, they are not afraid, after all, bin Laden's family is too big, let's talk about bin Laden himself, that is, 52 brothers and sisters. I don't know how many siblings his father has. What can they do with each other?
