This is also related to the history of the country of Brunei, whose full name is Brunei Darusa Blue Country.

The country was under the control of the Javanese state until the 14th century, and during the 14th and 16th centuries, it was once very powerful, controlling the southern Philippines and now Sarawak and Sabah in Indonesia, and was known as a small hegemon in Southeast Asia.

However, in the middle of the 16th century, the country rapidly declined due to the Spanish invasion.

And after that, there were the invasions of the Portuguese, the Dutch, and the British, and the country has not been able to stand up since then, and can only be reduced to the status of a colony.

It was not until 1888 that the country became a British protectorate, that is, a British colony, that it was able to settle down, but by that time the country's geographical area had shrunk significantly, and it had long ceased to be the hegemon of Southeast Asia.

All that remained was a small land crisscrossed by waters, and their status as a British protectorate lasted until January 1, 1984, when it became an independent state from the status of a British protectorate.

However, after all, the British have colonized here for nearly a hundred years, so the British still left a very deep mark on this country, although this country is also a country that believes in Islam, but unlike their cousins in the Middle East, the degree of secularization is quite high.

His Majesty the Sultan was educated in the royal palace by an English teacher at an early age, and later studied in England. Joined the Royal Sandhurst Military Academy. And later returned to China and became king.

So don't look at the country as an independent country now. But in fact, in their bones, there is still an inextricable connection with their former suzerain, Britain.

For example, His Majesty the Sultan, his younger brother once had a lawsuit with the Sultan over the right to inherit the throne and the right to inherit the estate.

Later, the lawsuit went all the way to the British royal court, and the British resolved the dispute between them through legal means, which shows that the sun never set on the empire at that time. influence in this country.

And after listening to Belinda talk about these secrets, Jin Muchen finally understood why the Hassan Nur Sultan would be so indifferent and show his love for the Harel princess in front of everyone.

The root of the relationship is here!

This Princess Haraire is simply a mascot, a symbol of friendship between Brunei and the British Empire, this Hassan Nur Sultan, even if he really doesn't like this princess in his heart, he doesn't dare to show it in front of outsiders. What's more, he, Jin Muchen, as an outsider, can see it. He loved this princess from the bottom of his heart!

No wonder they were invited to Brunei by this sultan from Indonesia, no wonder this sultan would attach so much importance to them, and feel that he saved his life!

Otherwise, if the princess was not so important to the sultan, they could have sent someone to express their gratitude, and there was no need to invite herself and Belinda to his house.

After understanding this reason, Jin Muchen felt that the doubts in his heart had finally been solved, and he was also a lot more relaxed.

The next morning, he and Belinda got up, and the two of them once again enjoyed a pure British aristocratic service, except for dressing and washing, basically the two of them did not do much, and they were served and finished breakfast.

Then he was taken to the stable next to the palace by the attendants in the palace, and when he entered the stable, Jin Muchen couldn't help but be stunned.

He knew that many wealthy people liked to raise horses, and the horses they raised were not the same as those raised in the American countryside, and the horses used for farm work.

These rich people like to raise that kind of pure-blooded racing horses, you must know that such horses are not cheap, just a horse, even a foal, as long as they are from a famous family, they are worth hundreds of thousands, millions.

There are many rich people in the United States who like such BMWs, but even if they like it, they generally raise three or five horses and die.

After all, raising such a racehorse is not cheap, you not only have a stable, but also a racetrack for the horse to exercise, and feed the horse, as well as the riders, and the maintenance of the venue, etc., which can cost a lot of money a year.

You must know that such a BMW has very strict requirements for living conditions, not only to eat fine materials, but also to live in a good place.

Therefore, the cost of raising such a horse alone will cost millions in a year, which is also the main reason why those rich people in the United States, even if they like horses, are not willing to raise too much.

But when he entered the stable of His Majesty the Sultan, he was dumbfounded, no wonder people said that even if Bill Gates came to this Sultan, he would only be willing to bow down.

Look at the stable, the area alone can make people embarrassed, Jin Muchen took a visual inspection, this stable is about the size of several football fields, and the fence compartment of the horse is even more invisible.

As he followed the waiter through here, he also took a general look, and the horses in almost every compartment were extraordinary horses, and although he was a pure layman in this area, he could also see that the bloodlines of these horses were not ordinary.

And the place that made him feel the most was that in such a large stable, the wayward Sultan was willing to install a central air conditioner in this stable......

This life is really not something that ordinary people can afford.

I don't know how far I went, but at last I came to the front of a compartment, and at this time His Majesty the Sultan, dressed as a rider, came out of the stable compartment, saw them coming, and smiled at them.

"How's my stable?"

"This is the biggest and most luxurious stable I've ever seen, haha, it looks like I'll have something to talk about again when I go back to meet my friends in the future!"

Jin Muchen made no secret of his envy of the king's extravagance, and such an attitude made the sultan very satisfied.

"Haha, I have a total of 250 horses here, almost all of them are thoroughbreds, and almost all of their parents have won championships in the world's most famous horse races......"

Just listening to this introduction is staggering, you must know that the horses that have won the championship in the world's famous horse racing competitions are all world-famous horses, and even if you want to find someone to breed, you have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in breeding fees.

And such a horse, the Sultan alone has more than 250 horses, no wonder his younger brother is shameless, and he has to fight a lawsuit with him, it seems that this is the Sultan, and it is really a job that everyone wants to rush to do.

Hassan Nur laughed and took them for a walk in the stable, and from time to time introduced them to who the father of the horse was, and the mother of the horse.

Coming out of the stable, the men drank a few more cold drinks, and then they got into the boat and sailed out along a river that surrounded the palace, with Princess Harrell on board.

His Majesty the King personally gave Jin Muchen and them a guide to visit his country, which really made Jin Muchen feel a little flattered.

The area of Brunei is about the size of five Xiangjiang, but they do not have the same population as Xiangjiang, more than 80% of the country's land is covered by forests, and there are many rivers in the country, so it can be regarded as a very distinctive Southeast Asian water city.

Along the way, the river is lined with lush forests, and almost the entire length of Bandar Seri Begawan, Brunei's capital, is covered in tropical rainforest.

There are no high-rise buildings in the city, and there are no interesting entertainment venues, and there are many white houses on the roadside, all hidden in the lush green woods.

It is really a city full of greenery, and Jin Muchen has been to many places from south to north, but like here, the whole city is half hidden in this green forest, and it is the first time he has seen it.

The atmosphere of this city is different from the cities of several other countries in Southeast Asia that he has been to before, the people here are very peaceful, not as impetuous as the people of other countries.

And just by looking at the attitude of those who walk unhurriedly on the road, you can tell that they are happy, which can be seen from the smile on their faces.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the welfare of the country, which is rich in petroleum and gas resources, and their oil and gas are not marketable at all.

Some of them are supplied to the Southeast Asian market through BP's channels, while the other half is almost entirely sold to Japan......

With a lot of oil dollars and the state is quite good at welfare, they rented a ranch in Australia that was larger than their own land area, specializing in the production of beef and mutton for their people's consumption, and the cost was quite low.

And all kinds of other national welfare, medical care, education is also a lot, living in this country, there is no pressure to survive at all, no wonder this place has been rated as the world's happiest country year after year.

His Majesty Hassanur, all the way to introduce Jin Muchen to their capital, they have been sailing on the water all the way, the whole city of Bandar Seri Begawan, is surrounded by the Brunei River, and the river has many forks, dividing the city into many different areas.

Therefore, in addition to cars, taking a boat is also a very important option for people here, which makes Jin Muchen even feel as if he has arrived in an Oriental Venice water city...... (To be continued......)
