A property in an oasis on the outskirts of the capital.
Calling it a real estate is a bit exaggerated, because this is not a mid-mountain mansion like Xiangjiang, nor is it a linked villa, nor is it an enviable villa on the top of a mountain or on the bay.
It is a manor with a vast area and hundreds of rooms of various sizes. It not only includes elevators, swimming pools, private gardens, but also a playground and a 36-hole golf course.
Such a manor, not to mention the villas of Li Chaoren and others, even Lei Weidong's rose garden is far inferior.
Don’t forget, this is a desert where oil is more expensive than water.
Except for the royal family, ordinary people cannot afford a 36-hole golf course because it is too wasteful of water.
Water is the source of human life.
Xiangjiang's rapid development and becoming the first of the Four Asian Tigers is inseparable from the mainland's support in water.
Before the mainland provided large-scale water supply to the Hong Kong River, water problems had always been a big problem on Hong Kong Island, not to mention areas such as the New Territories and Kowloon, even Western District and Central District.
In the 1960s, countless residents had to go to public taps to get water every day, and there were no running water pipes at home.
If you encounter an accident!
Just like in 1963, Xiangjiang suffered from a severe drought that had never happened in a century. There was such a water shortage that public taps on the streets stopped supplying water. Residents had to go to water stations to buy water.
At the most serious time, the British Hong Kong government restricted water supply to citizens. Water supply was provided every four days for four hours each time. Whether it was for eating, drinking or bathing, it had to be obtained within these four hours.
If it weren't for the mainland's support for Xiangjiang and allowing Xiangjiang to send ships to the mainland to draw Danshui at no cost, Xiangjiang would probably be in chaos.
Had it not been for the foresight of the top brass and the construction of a water supply project, hundreds of millions of cubic meters of water would have been supplied to the Xiangjiang River every year starting in 1965, thus solving the drinking water problem.
otherwise!
Think about it, if those gorgeous female celebrities can only take a shower once a week, in the high temperature of more than 30 degrees, no matter how beautiful the beauty is, people will shy away.
As for the seawater dewatering project that many people are talking about.
Xiangjiang is not a big company with no shortage of oil.
As early as 1973, we began to build the largest seawater treatment plant in the world at that time, the seawater treatment plant in Tuen Mun, using the experience of related pilot projects.
During the drought of 1977, the plant was fully operational.
However, the cost of dewatering seawater is high. The fuel cost alone costs 146 million Hong Kong dollars a year. Not only is the cost high, one ton of water costs more than 30 Hong Kong dollars, and the quantity is still seriously insufficient.
Later, during the global oil crisis, the cost of decontaminating seawater skyrocketed again, and the plant chose to close in 1982.
Since then, Xiangjiang has mainly relied on the mainland for drinking water, and seawater is only used for flushing toilets.
The cost of dewatering the seawater in Hong Kong has to be taken into consideration, but the wealthy people don't care. Some of them are rich in oil, and even if they are in the desert, they will not be short of water. As for the king.
The Oasis property was the king's palace.
As a palace, let alone the decoration, in a word, it is inhumane.
The 24k pure gold bathroom toilet, the bathtub made of crystal, the pure gold framed mirror with diamond edges, just the bathroom is beyond the reach of ordinary rich people.
In comparison, the water consumption of a golf course is tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars.
"His Majesty!"
The king was playing in the swimming pool in the palace with his beloved concubine and maid.
The loyal palace guard chief came up and said.
"Is something wrong?" The king is an old man in his sixties. Even though he is pampered, his energy is not as good as before. Not to mention that he is surrounded by beautiful women. The exercise just now has greatly consumed the king's energy.
Seeing the captain of the guard coming up, he asked weakly.
"Prince Doha." The captain of the guard looked at the beloved concubine beside him with some embarrassment and lowered his head.
The beloved concubine and the maid were very discerning. Seeing the expression of the captain of the guard, they knew that he had something important to report to the king, and immediately retreated to the other side of the swimming pool.
"Is it a matter of negotiation?"
"Yes!" The captain of the guard nodded, "The prince said that the negotiation went smoothly, but the price is a bit high. Thirty pieces are already double the budget."
"It's twice the budget, so the price is so high." The words of the captain of the guard made the king frown. The price was too high, much more expensive than the ones from Eagle Sauce and Mao Xiong.
"The prince made a lot of requests, so." Fearing that the king would be angry, the captain of the guard lowered his head and reported, "Not only did he ask to fly far, but also exceeded two thousand kilometers. The power was also high, and there may be... ..”
"There may be...if there is." The words of the captain of the guard made the king's eyes light up.
As the supreme ruler of a wealthy family, the king knew that his luxurious life came from his position. If he were not the king, he would be able to live such a luxurious life and have so many women.
The prince of Doha lives a luxurious life, but it pales in comparison to the king.
If you don’t say it, don’t say it.
Just say that the king goes to his private palace in Marbella, Spain, for vacation every year. This is built by the king after Buckingham Palace, not only the main structure.
There is also a small palace, N villas, 2 mosques, 2 helipads, 3 stadiums, hospitals, parking lots, and dormitories for 1,500 employees.
This is much better than Prince Aladdin. After Aladdin saw Buckingham Palace, he liked it but had to give up because it was not for sale, and the king.
Since we can’t buy the original one, let’s build a high imitation.
It is said that during the holiday, the king spent about 5 million euros in one day.
The reason why Zi spends so much money is not only because there are more than 100 people accompanying him, but also because he needs to dispatch multiple Boeing aircraft to and from Gouda and Spain.
In addition, rice has to be transported from Jeddah, water from Mecca, and roasted lamb from Riyadh, because the king likes to eat domestically produced lamb. In addition, the royal family spends 2,000 pounds on fresh orchids every day just to eat fruit. It costs £1,000.
Sometimes, 5 million euros is not enough for one day.
In addition, the king also owns the world's most luxurious superyacht - Prince Abdulaziz.
An astonishing 147 meters long, built in Denmark and completed in 1984, it features the world's most advanced technology and can accommodate 64 guests and 65 crew members.
Although the tonnage is not as good as that of the Eclipse and Azzam in the future, we forget that this was in 1984, and future tycoons like Abramovich were still in the entrepreneurial stage.
The king was extravagant and his family was inhumane.
Don't look at the law that only allows men to have four wives, but there are policies and countermeasures. Arab men, especially the royal family, often change their fourth wives.
Its founding king had thirty-eight wives and dozens of sons, more than the sons of Emperor Kangxi.
Now, although the king has fewer wives, he has more than five, and he also has several sons.
His youngest son, Prince Abdullah, has palaces in Dubai and around the world worth $2 billion alone. Not only that, Abdul also has a "Pyramid House" in Beverly Hills, California.
In order to travel around the world, Abdul also equipped himself with a Boeing 777. The private jet not only comes with bedrooms, showers, but also a fully equipped hospital.
You can go wherever you want, and many young female flight attendants from the West have been carefully selected to serve you.
These costs need to be supported by status and national stability. If the country is stable, the royal family can live a life of debauchery. If there is a riot.
Just like the lion's side, the royal family's experience was terrible.
"Tell the Prince of Doha that if you really can get it...if the price exceeds double the budget, you must agree." Looking at the beloved concubine and maid playing in the water not far away.
The old king said in a firm tone.
"Understood!" The captain of the guard nodded, turned around and went out.
----------
The rooftop of the townhouse at No. 9 Luoyang Road.
Partridge was doing Tai Chi slowly on the rooftop of her home.
Boss Ye is watering the flowers.
It’s just that Boss Ye was absent-minded when he was watering the flowers and kept peeking at the partridges.
"Stop watering, the flowers will die if you water them again." Partridge reminded kindly as he saw the faucet in Boss Ye's hand spraying directly onto a pot of flowers.
"ah!"
The absent-minded Boss Ye quickly turned off the water.
"You police officers are so idle, you don't have to go to work at the police station." Boss Ye, who had made a fool of himself, was very flustered and wanted to change the subject.
“Of course the police are busy because they have to protect citizens from being harmed by criminals. They have to work night shifts not only during the day but also at night.
It's just that my current job is to work for Fahrenheit Chemicals. I can just wait for the news at home. Miss Ye, when will your cousin get the results out. "
Knowing the reason why Boss Ye changed the topic, Partridge smiled and explained.
"It will be tomorrow morning at the earliest. At the beginning, the test only paid attention to the contamination and not the ingredients inside. I called my cousin yesterday before sending it to the laboratory.
It would take forty-eight hours to come out, my cousin said, and as soon as the results came out, she came over immediately. Boss Ye asked, "Officer Hong, is this result very important?" "
"It's very important. If it's what I think, Fahrenheit Chemical can be shut down without going to court. Otherwise, we have to go to court. This kind of lawsuit involving environmental protection will be endless. I don't know how long it will drag on." .”
Partridge nodded, turned around and picked up the brewed tea. After getting a cup, he lifted Boss Ye through the fence.
"Have you ever seen the people from Fahrenheit Chemical and what their reaction was."
"What other reaction can there be?" Boss Ye took the tea handed over by Partridge Cai, took a sip, and said, "My cousin met with the attorney of Fahrenheit Chemical yesterday.
His attitude is very tough and he will fight us to the end in court. "
"Instead of talking about these annoying things, let's talk about our affairs." Taking the empty tea cup returned by Boss Ye, Partridge began to change the topic.
"We have something to talk about."
"Of course, I hope you can give me a night." Partridge Cai got straight to the point and stated his purpose.
2k
"one night!"
Partridge Cai's words made Boss Ye's heart beat fast. He didn't understand what he meant. He was eating or not. That wouldn't be too fast.
Fortunately, Partridge just paused and continued, "We can eat a lot and talk a lot in one night."
"call!"
Boss Ye breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know why, but he still felt a little disappointed. Maybe he was single because he had been single for too long, feeling empty, lonely and in need.
"Anyway, we are all neighbors and we have known each other before. Let's be good friends." Seeing the smile on the corner of Boss Ye's mouth, Partridge knew that something was going on and continued.
"Friends are easily betrayed, so it's better to make fewer friends." Boss Ye wanted to agree, but he was worried that he would make the other party look down on him too quickly, so he refused timidly:
"Lest you be betrayed later."
"As long as we can become friends, I am willing to be betrayed by you."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true." Partridge Cai said in a very affirmative tone.
"But your eyes tell me that you are not sincere in making friends, you just want a woman, that's all." Boss Ye pointed his finger at the little partridge's eyes and said.
"I really want to find a girl to be my friend. At my age, it's time to consider my partner." Partridge nodded, admitting that Boss Ye was right and that he was interested in her.
"Miss Ye, don't look at my eyes, look at my mouth, just believe my words."
"I believe what you say. A man's mouth is deceitful. Whoever believes it will be in trouble, let alone the scar on your mouth. How can I believe it." Boss Ye shook his head and said very hypocritically.
"My scar is on my mouth. It belongs to my nose. Don't make a mistake. Just promise me." Touching the scar on his mouth, it was from when he was young.
Got into a fight at a bar.
As time went by, I forgot about it, and even became good friends with the person who caused the scar. Unexpectedly, Boss Ye used it as an excuse for rejection today.
But who is Partridge Cai? Having been around the world since he was a child, he immediately thought of an excuse to refute.
"Whether it's your mouth or your nose, thank you for your invitation. I accept it from my heart. Bye, ah!" Boss Ye was about to refuse, but his hand was grabbed by Partridge Cai.
"Don't refuse, just promise me." Holding Boss Ye's little hand, Partridge begged.
"Why do you men always invite women to dinner and movies when you have nothing else to do?" Boss Ye was very nervous when Partridge grabbed her hand and wanted to break away, but her strength was not comparable to Partridge's. Cai, after struggling for a long time to no avail, he finally had to accept his fate.
"Of course there are other things. It's not yet time. Just promise me, I'll wait for you at the Glass House Restaurant tonight!" Partridge looked at Boss Ye affectionately. Just when he was about to continue the invitation, he heard someone downstairs. call:
"Open the door, open the door. I'm Chen Jiaju."
"Chen Jiaju, what are you doing here, you bastard, to ruin my good deeds? Also, what's wrong with your nose and eyes? You were beaten or taught a lesson by Amei."
When he heard someone coming, the shy Boss Ye took the opportunity to break away. But when Partridge saw the duck he was about to get fly away, he immediately cursed downstairs angrily.
"Forget it, open the door and let me in. I have something to tell you. Which boss of Fahrenheit Chemical really has a problem." Chen Jiaju said loudly downstairs.
"Officer Hong, your colleague." Boss Ye, who was about to go downstairs to hide for a while after hearing the name of Fahrenheit Chemicals, couldn't help but come back.
"Yes, my colleague, Inspector Cheng of the heavy eucalyptus group, I asked him to help me investigate the boss of Fahrenheit Chemical. It seems that I have a clue." Seeing Boss Ye back, Partridge was very happy, and the cooked duck returned came back.
