Chapter 261: Hillard's Family Feast

When Malaha told Su Wang, he just said that the chief was entertaining at the Grand Palace, and Su Wang thought that he was entertaining at Hillard's home in Abu Dhabi, who would have thought that at five o'clock in the afternoon, after meeting with Malaha at the agreed place, he learned that the place to eat was called the Chief's Palace. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Compared to Dubai, Abu Dhabi doesn't have a seven-star hotel, which may seem a bit low, but Abu Dhabi people are proud to have an eight-star hotel.

And the reason why it is called the Grand Palace is because "five-star" is obviously far from enough to flaunt this luxurious residence, and simply put the word "Royal Palace" in front of the name of the hotel.

In fact, the star rating standard of the hotel is a total of five grades, generally like the assessment of the hotel star rating work by the tourist hotel star rating agency is responsible for the overall planning, the development of star rating work implementation measures and inspection rules, authorization and supervision of the provincial tourist hotel star rating agency to carry out the star rating work, the organization of the implementation of the five-star hotel assessment and review work.

Of course, there are exceptions, and critics don't know how to rate hotels, such as the Burj Al Arab in Dubai and the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi.

Either way, the Grand Palace is more luxurious than the Burj Al Arab is a consensus of all people, and there is no doubt about it.

Malaha personally drove a gold-plated RR, which was shining with gold and could pierce people's eyes, and what was surprising was not only the body, but also the interior except for the leather-wrapped place, which was also a piece of gold, but in order to prevent the light from affecting the driving, the gold-plated design was not changed to a matte design.

Su Wang asked strangely, "Are these all real gold?"

Malaha glanced at him in the rearview mirror, "Cool, if you like it, I can give you one." "Actually, it doesn't cost much money to make all the gold, at least not all the gold in the Madinat Zayed Gold Center." ”

Su Wang smiled bitterly, it seems that Malaha has also heard about his crazy purchase in the gold center.

Han Mo'er said, "Your Royal Highness, the stock of the gold center is a little insufficient, and it is gone after just scanning it." ”

Malaha smiled and shook his head, "Maybe the next time I come over, the goods will be more abundant." ”

As he spoke, he came to the Grand Palace on the northwest coast, Malaha walked directly into the entrance lane exclusive to the nobles, and after the car stopped, there was a middle-aged man in a white robe standing at the door, and he was followed by a man in his thirties, the two were the current Sheikh Hillard of the Emirate of Dubai and Crown Prince Manhatan.

Manhattan is also an Internet celebrity in China, with a large number of fan girls, good figures, good looks, and money, and more importantly, he will be richer in the future.

Hillard hugged Su Wang first, and then shook hands with Bob, Manhattan secretly examined Su Wang, and after taking Hillard to hug him, he also used to hug Su Wang. Han Moer took the initiative to stretch out her hand and shook it with Hillard and Manhadan. Arabs are more conservative in terms of women's etiquette, and men will not take the initiative to shake hands with women, but Han Moer knows this.

The Emirates Palace is home to the world's largest domed building, with an astonishing 66 hectares of interior space, and employees have to drive golf carts back and forth. The solemn design, as well as the rich Arabic style, made Su Wang and Han Mo'er, who had seen these for the first time, secretly surprised, compared with the Grand Palace, Su Wang's Xingwan and Caesar International, which used to eat before, were like small fly restaurants on the side of the road.

However, these can also be understood, everything here is based on the trench, and the resources of the entire country support a family, not to mention the investment of three billion dollars in the Grand Palace, even if it is necessary to build a three billion dollars of fried chicken palace for these people, it is only a few months' income.

A few years ago, when the coal industry was on the rise, I was fortunate to meet a couple of strange coal bosses in Lufthansa, female: I want to buy all the clothes I can wear here. M: Buy it, isn't it just a few truckloads of coal......

Really, there's nothing wrong with it.

We don't understand the world of local tyrants, and their brain circuits are a bit bizarre.

On the golf cart, Hillard introduced the three of them to the Grand Palace, and Han Moer said in fluent English, "The Arabs have made great contributions to the world in mathematics, literature, astronomy, philosophy, physics, medicine, etc., and Cary Gibran is one of my favorite writers, especially his sentence: When wisdom is so proud that it refuses to weep, solemn as to rejoice, and complacent as to refuse to look at people, it does not become wisdom." ”

Hillard laughed, "Cary Gibran is the pride of the Arab world, ma'am, and I like one of his sayings: Thoughts are birds in the sky, in the cage of language, they may spread their wings, but they cannot fly." He said to Crown Prince Manhadan, who had been following him, "Fly your wings, and the eagle will fly into the distance." ”

Manhadan nodded, "Understood, father." ”

Malaha glanced at Han Mo'er and said, "I also like Kari Gibran's saying: Love each other, but don't make a tether of love." ”

Han Mo'er lowered her head and pondered for a moment, and quickly raised her head with a smile.

The dinner party was set in Hillard's room, and after taking it to the top floor and entering the room, the three of them knew that what they had seen before was not called luxury, had you ever seen a napkin woven with gold wire? Have you ever seen a whole room gilded? Have you ever heard of a gilded toilet, have you ever heard that all the cutlery is made of gold?

In the 1,200-square-meter luxury suite, it feels a little shabby to describe it as resplendent, Su Wang suddenly remembered the allusion that Liu Che said at the beginning, he has never seen the real golden house, but that's roughly it, right?

It's not that he hasn't seen the world, the tomb under the Black Dragon Valley, the five-meter-high golden statue of Genghis Khan, and those carriages didn't make him anything, but at this time, he felt that these chiefs were really good at enjoying it.

After the chef in white uniform introduced the dishes on the table, Hillard smiled slightly, "Ms. Han, Mr. Su and Mr. Stevenson, you can taste the authentic Arabic flavor, this halwa is the favorite dessert of the Arabs, just taste it, you will find that life is always good." And this grilled lamb chop, which also tastes great......"

Arabs love sweets, but most of the dishes are barbecued, the chefs of the Grand Palace are absolutely top-notch, the lamb chops are charred on the outside and tender on the inside, the color is golden and red, and the juice is full.

The three of them tasted it, and it tasted really good, and Bob put down his knife and fork, stretched out his thumbs and called "verygood" repeatedly.

As for Su Wang, he is very fond of roasting suckling camels and roasted lamb shanks, while Han Moer likes to eat delicious Iraqi grilled fish.

Because Hillard was present, Manhattan and Malaha were low-key and humble, and many dishes were tasted superficially, and Malaha also glanced at Su Wang from time to time, and Su Wang was a little unclear.

But soon, he knew what Malaha meant, and the real main course was finally revealed after the six white-clothed chefs entered, and on the gilded lifting plate, a dromedary camel that had been roasted to a golden brown and tender and fragrant flavor was carried in by the four people, and the six chefs helped to slice the camel meat and stood in the back.

Hillard smiled slightly, but Su Wang smiled, "I know, this is a roasted camel, right, Mr. Chief?"

Roasted whole camels are known as "the most spectacular in the world", from state banquets to Bedouin weddings, camels are roasted, and it is also the most sincere dish they use to entertain VIPs, and it is generally only used to entertain the most distinguished guests.

The cooking method and materials used to roast the whole camel are very exquisite, the chefs will first cut the hump of the slaughtered dromedary, then rinse and remove the internal organs, and then the production process is as follows: first put a pre-roasted sheep into the belly of the camel, then the belly of the sheep is filled with the chicken that has been roasted, then put a grilled fish in the belly of the chicken, the belly of the fish is the boiled egg, and then the lamb is sealed in the belly of the camel, and various Arabic spices are added.

The three of them didn't know that there was still this dish, and Su Wang regretted the roast suckling camel and roast lamb leg he had eaten before, so did he need to eat anything else? With this dish, ten more people couldn't finish it.

Hillard never mentioned the matter of building a water purification plant, but just talked about some ordinary topics with the three of them, and Su Wang was naturally the main among the three, and the reason why Bob was able to participate was because he was the CEO of Blue Biotechnology, but Hillard's ability to control the environment was very good, and he did not snub anyone at all.

Compared to Malha, who is pretending to be a good baby, Manhadan has more words, which should be the reason why Hillard is interested in cultivating, and occasionally finds a topic to chat with Su Wang, mainly to express his gratitude to Su Wang for giving the Prophet's handwritten letter to the Maktoum family.

Yes, the word "send" is not inconsistent at all.

Su Wang also knew that he had sold his handwritten book cheaply, which was all blamed on his serious undervaluation of the parchment roll at that time, with these local tycoons who ate with a golden rice bowl (a real rice bowl made of gold), five billion would not frown, this parchment roll for these Arabs, is much more important to the Chinese than the jade seal of the country, the jade seal of the country is only a representative of the cultural inheritance of the Chinese, is a mortal product, and the parchment roll is the inheritance left by the saint, is a holy product.

Therefore, Manhadan's word "send" sounded in Su Wang's ears, and it was extremely bitter.

Of course, the reason why it was sold cheaply, the most important thing is that he has never seen the world, a billion dollars, it was an astronomical amount in his eyes at that time, and his grandson couldn't spend it all, right?

Only Han Mo'er knew how he felt, squinted his eyes, looked at him with a smile, and then said to Manhadan, "The Prophet's handwriting is the wealth of all Muslims, and it should be returned to the hands of Muslims." ”

Hillard smiled happily, "Han, I like your point of view. You and Su will always be friends of the Islamic world, the most honorable friends of all Muslims. ”

The dinner didn't last long, that is, more than an hour, but for Su Wang and Han Mo'er, it was really a bit of torment. This is because, although it is said to be a family banquet, the environment is still more formal, the age and experience of the two are not deep, it is difficult to adapt to this solemn dining occasion, and the main reason is that there are many taboos in Arabs, especially Muslims, who have to go through their brains when they have a lot to say, and they must not violate each other's customs and traditions and religious beliefs.

Bob was the chief operating officer of ANZ before, and there are many similar scenes, plus Europeans and Americans pay attention to equality for everyone, and the pressure is not as great as that of the two.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Su Wang will be shocked by Hillard's domineering spirit, but because he is friends with Malaha, according to the domestic title, he should be called Uncle Hillardhi?

After the meal, Hillard did not come down, but asked Crown Prince Manhadan to personally send the three people away, without Hillard present, Manhadan was quite enthusiastic towards Su Wang, and sent the three downstairs until Malaha drove away, and then he went back.
