"Thank you for the frozen ice cubes, Lingqiu'er, and Soul Mengge Gui for the monthly passes.

I can't get the February guaranteed monthly ticket in the hands of all book friends.

Also, for the sake of the lone wolf speeding up the update, let's give more recommendation votes! Fang Mingyuan and the two, under the leadership of Lu Zhengde, passed the customs smoothly all the way, of course, this is also related to the fact that Fang Mingyuan and Chen Zhong did not bring anything.

They were empty-handed.

Naturally, it is easier to clear customs than those with large bags and small bags.

The three of them went straight to the exit of the airport building, and someone was already waiting outside the door.

"Brother Chen, bear with me, when we return to the office, you can smoke as much as you want, in this public place.

Don't smoke.

The police here are very sharp-eyed, and the punishment is also extraordinarily ruthless, we can't afford to be angry with them for such a trivial matter, Lu Zhengde comforted Chen Zhongdao while walking.

Chen Zhong nodded amusedly, although he said that there were very few soldiers who couldn't smoke and drink.

It's just that I wouldn't have been, and after a few years in the barracks, I will become a smoker and a gun drunk.

He's no exception, of course, but not to the point where he doesn't even have that bit of self-control.

If this is the time when you go on a mission and you can't have any peculiar smell on your body, then you won't be tormented to death.

Saudi Arabia in August is a hot climate, with summer highs that can exceed the degrees.

If there is a sandstorm, it can reach the high temperature of the blade.

As soon as he approached the door of the airport building, a rush of heat almost gave Fang Mingyuan a sigh of relief.

Lu Zhengde stood at the door and waved.

An American Ford pulled out of the parking lot at a rapid pace.

The three of them hurried up and rushed into the shady car as fast as they could.

That's when he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's not the right time for our flight, if it's morning, or after evening, it's better here, it's not so hot.

I would like to introduce you, this one is the company's foundation.

He is Egyptian and works here. ”

Lu Zhengde wiped the sweat on his face while introducing the driver to Fang Mingyuan.

Ben twisted his face.

He smiled and said a few words, then turned back again.

"Ben, I don't speak Chinese, but his English is okay, the accent is heavier, if Mr. Fang wants to go out or something, if I don't show up.

You can also ask him to handle it for you.

I just have to speak slowly and be patient, Lu Zhengde remembers that Fang Mingyuan's English is good.

Fang Mingyuan nodded, and looked out the window crying, there were not many vehicles on the road at this time.

But there are endless good cars in the roadside parking lots, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Porsche, and Lexus are the most common models on the street, or all kinds of high-power four-wheel drive off-road vehicles.

It's dizzying to see.

"People in Saudi Arabia are wealthy and love cars, so shijie is the latest model from various countries.

It is easy to see on the roads of Saudi Arabia.

Often, at the end of each international auto show, you can see the new cars that made their debut on the road here.

And some Saudis with nomadic traditions are especially fond of off-road vehicles, and they often buy a car, and they often don't drive it for a year, then they will change to a new one.

In the old parking lot here, it is often seen that Mercedes-Benz, which has been used for less than a year, Lu Zhengde noticed Fang Mingyuan's gaze and explained to him casually.

Kuok's Shipping Group of Companies' office in Saudi Arabia.

Located in a small four-story building near the port, except for Lu Zhengde, the manager.

There is also a Hong Kong assistant manager, and the other six people are all laborers from Egypt and Lebanon.

Locals in Saudi Arabia, don't think about it, there are very few foreign companies that can afford to hire them, except for Saudi Arabia's own companies.

The two floors downstairs are offices, and the third floor is Lu Zhengde's bedroom for his two people, as well as several prepared guest rooms.

The fourth floor is the dormitory of these clerks, but it is said to be a dormitory, and it is also a single room, which has all kinds of facilities, compared to the staff dormitory in Huaxia, it is not a little bit stronger.

Lu Zhengde took Fang Mingyuan to look at the guest room, the inner and outer suite, and all kinds of household appliances.

There are separate toilets and bathrooms.

"The kitchen and dining room are on the ground floor and we have a dedicated chef here for what you need to eat.

It's just Arab, and it's all Arabic.

I eat this exotic flavor from time to time, and I think it's okay, but for a long time, I still can't compare with us.

Fortunately, Zhao Yang and I can do a few hands, so I can't help but go to the kitchen by myself.

It's just that the spices here are not so complete, and some things have to be brought from Hong Kong.

When you go through customs.

It's more troublesome.

"Manager Lu, grain and vegetables are very expensive here in Saudi Arabia, right?

Chen Zhong asked casually.

In his impression, Saudi Arabia is not everywhere with yellow sand.

The sea of sand is everywhere.

These cities are just oases of size and size on the sand sea.

Without the support of agriculture, these foods would be imported exclusively.

It's definitely not cheap.

Lu Zhengde couldn't help laughing, this is not to understand Saudi Arabia, there is a misunderstanding that Eryi Xiaopu has that he is himself, and he has just come to Saudi Arabia and Ala United Arab League, and he also thinks so.

In fact, Saudi Arabia has always attached great importance to the development of agriculture and placed it at the top of the government's work.

It can even be said that it is second only to the oil industry.

The Saudi Arabian government has implemented preferential policies to encourage the cultivation of crops, especially wheat, which has mobilized farmers.

At present, the main agricultural products are wheat, dates, corn, rice, citrus cuttings, grapes, pomegranates, etc.

"The grain self-sufficiency rate is 98 percent, and wheat can already be exported?" Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but ask in surprise, Lu Zhengde's news was too surprising.

He also always thought.

Here in Saudi Arabia, all daily necessities except petroleum products have to be imported.

"Not only that, but the Saudi Arabian government is also vigorously promoting animal husbandry, mainly sheep, goats, locus, etc.

The government has also used local and private enterprises to set up broiler and layer farms.

Develop the fish farming industry and encourage large companies to set up various farms.

Therefore, whether it is food or vegetables here, it is not expensive compared to the income of the locals.

We can handle it too. ”

Sheng Zhengde said with a smile, "I'm afraid Mr. Fang doesn't know, in fact, Saudi Arabia's agriculture is still promising."

Arable land throughout Saudi Arabia so far.

Only a little more than a dozen percent of it is used, and there is still a large amount of arable land that is idle. ”

"This is really in response to that sentence, this is indeed a happy desert!" Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but mutter.

This originated from the way he came, and Lu Zhengde once mentioned to him that the "Saudi" in Saudi Arabia was taken from the name of Ibn Saud, the founder of the Arab Kingdom.

In Arabic, it means "blessing".

And the word "Arab".

It means "desert" in Arabic.

Therefore, "Saudi Arabia" means "happy desert".

And Lu Zhengde once said that Saudi Arabia is not only the largest oil reservoir and producer on Shijie.

It is also the largest producer of desalinated seawater on Shijie, and its desalination volume accounts for about the total amount of Shijie.

At present, there are a total of seawater desalination plants in the sand.

The daily output of 10,000 cubic meters of desalinated water can supply nearly half of the country's water consumption.

It is not an exaggeration to be able to live such a rich life here, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a happy desert.

"Mr. Fang, that's the case first, the two of you will rest here first, and when you eat later, there will be someone", well, you are going down to eat.

Or let them send it up.

In other words, how about going out to eat Western food? People here eat, except for Western food, most of the time they use their hands, unlike us.

You have to use dishes and chopsticks, and the two of us have already followed the local customs.

I don't know if you two will get used to it by then. ”

Lu Zhengde hesitated.

These two are the eldest sons of the Guo family who personally came forward to take care of the Haode VIPs, but they didn't dare to make any mistakes.

To be honest, if Fang Mingyuan hadn't repeatedly insisted that he didn't have to be so polite, and he also refused to stay in the hotel in Jeddah, he wouldn't have brought Fang Mingyuan and the others back here.

Fang Mingyuan looked at Chen Zhong and said indifferently: "Manager Lu, since this is the case, then I will invite you and Manager Zhao tonight, and the location will be chosen by you, let's taste the authentic flavor of Arabia." ”

Lu Zhengde waved his hand again and again: "You are our honored guest.

Before coming here, Mr. Guo asked me to treat you well, and Mr. Guo's orders, how dare we disobey.

Let's invite you both.

Going out for Arabic food is fine, but it's best for you two to take a look at the essentials to keep in mind when eating, so as not to cause some unnecessary trouble. ”

Fang Mingyuan nodded and said, "Manager Lu."

You don't have to worry about this, we'll definitely pay attention.

However, you'd better find a way to get in touch with me as soon as possible, and I hope things get done as soon as possible.

It's better to return to Hong Kong as soon as possible.

At this time, Saudi Arabia is really not a place to spend the summer. ”

In fact, Fang Mingyuan had another reason, this time due to the oil futures matter, he couldn't get out and go back to the capital to take the final exam.

His father and Mr. Su are already quite dissatisfied, so when school starts in early September, it is best for him to honestly go to the school to take the make-up exam.

Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.

In this way, the time spent in Saudi Arabia naturally seems a little tight.

Lu Zhengde said with a difficult face: "Mr. Fang, please rest assured, I'll find a way to get in touch."

However, in August, Saudi Arabians have always had short working hours and many holidays, and even if they get in touch, it is difficult to say whether they can meet in time.

All I can say is, I'll do my best. ”

"This Manager Lu doesn't have to worry, as long as you help me contact someone, the rest is our business. ”
