When we came to the restaurant for breakfast, B14 also came down with sleepy eyes. He was the only one living in the huge mansion for the time being. His wife and children stayed in Riyadh. He was now a happy "bachelor".
"Bader, although it may be a bit presumptuous, I still want to ask, how many wives do you have?"
After making sure that the two of them were familiar enough, Xia Yu finally couldn't help but ask.
Most of the countries in the Middle East practice polygamy. For example, Ibn Saud, the founding king of Saudi Arabia, married 38 wives and had 127 children, which also led to the huge royal family of Saudi Arabia today.
His descendants may not be as many as he married, but he will not have only one. This made Xia Yu very curious.
"This is no secret. Like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I currently only have two wives. However, I have relatively few children, only two boys and one daughter."
B14 said nonchalantly.
"By the way, how many wives do you have? If you like..."
"I don't have a wife yet, but I already have a girlfriend."
Seeing that B14 wanted to introduce himself, Xia Yu quickly replied.
"Shylock, one isn't enough. A man as outstanding as you should marry more and have more children."
Xia Yu liked to hear this. Although his kidneys could handle marrying more than one daughter, his heart would be exhausted!
Two is enough, no more, and we don’t know whether these two will agree or not. We have to wait and test it out when he goes back this time.
B14 actually wanted to find a cousin to marry Xia Yu. Being able to use a princess to tie down the future richest man in the world would be a very profitable deal even if he didn't change his faith. But Xia Yu really didn't like it. A Chinese wife would be better, and the maid was a Hu girl.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. We still have to find a suitable piece of land for the factory today. This is more important than anything else."
Xia Yu used work as an excuse, and B14 stopped worrying about it. After breakfast, he went out with Xia Yu.
The bulletproof Rolls-Royce Phantom drove out of the mansion, and the two men studied the map in the back seat, which marked all the undeveloped industrial sites in Jeddah.
As an oil exporting country with a serious industrial imbalance, Xia Yu does not expect the new factory to be able to integrate into the local industrial system like the Stuttgart branch, as long as it does not lag behind.
The technology will have domestic support by then, and the upstream and downstream supply chains will be solved by the European market. Anyway, the factory is built in a place with excellent geographical conditions such as the Red Sea, so the cost can be completely controlled.
The Stuttgart branch was upgraded to produce 3.0 battery cells, completing the industrial upgrade, and Saudi’s Jeddah state-owned joint venture plant produced 2.0 battery cells, completing the industrial transfer.
Perfect!
In the search for a suitable factory site, with the personal accompaniment of the local Minister of Culture and the support of the country's Crown Prince, everything was naturally given the green light and the efficiency was extremely high.
It took them only one day to visit the coastal suburbs of Jeddah and finalize the preliminary site. The area was much larger than any other directly-operated factory in China or abroad. However, it was really hot and the heat would not get better until night.
After returning to the city for dinner, B14 asked a few princes on good terms to join him, but their similar looks and uniform robes and turbans made him face-blind even if he was not.
Fortunately, he won't stay here long. After finalizing the specific cooperation matters, he will leave for home.
He has worked and seen the Middle Eastern customs, so he can't give up his precious birthday holiday.
After filling his stomach, Xia Yu returned to the mansion of B14. He said hello and went back to his room.
I contacted them in China and told them about the situation here, asking them to put together a team as soon as possible and come to Shat to finalize the details of the subsequent cooperation.
Jierui Power is no stranger to this. So far, they have built several joint venture factories and accumulated rich experience.
"That's it, the phone is hung up."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Yu stretched. He was not very tired yet and planned to go to Cybertron before going to bed.
The space wormhole opened silently, stepping from darkness into light. Because of the binary star system, Cybertron receives more than half of its daily sunshine time. Of course, there are also periodic changes, and Xia Yu also needs to look at the Cybertron calendar.
"Welcome home, Mr. Administrator!"
Xiao Baiying appeared out of nowhere, and Honghou greeted Xia Yu.
"Help me look at this."
Xia Yu took out a USB flash drive-shaped storage device, and the floating projection ball with integrated reading function moved closer and began to transmit data at high speed.
"Swish~~"
A majestic and solemn ancient city was holographically projected. This was Constantinople scaled down according to the design drawings.
In the projection, it is built by the sea, and the tall Theodosian Walls separate the capital from the mainland, and together with the inner city walls, they guard the center of the empire.
By the 15th century, only this capital was left of the vast Byzantine Empire. It had nothing left to lose, and the gates were eventually blown open by the Ottoman Sultan. The last purple-robed noble, Constantine XI, also disappeared in the chaos.
Xia Yu was quite interested in that period of history. Since he couldn't travel back to witness history, he decided to rebuild a Constantinople on Cybertron as part of his collection of ancient cities.
"Red Queen, with our current strength, how long will it take to rebuild Constantinople?"
"Mr. Administrator, if we suspend the construction of the Second Demon City, it will only take 63.5 days to rebuild Constantinople."
After a quick calculation, Red Queen gave a construction period accurate to the day.
So fast?
Yes, Constantinople is just an ancient city with a population of one million, while the Second Demon City is a modern metropolis that can accommodate 20 million people. In addition, the main building materials used are also different.
The huge Castle of Constantinople, 2 theaters, 4 basilicas, 8 luxurious public baths, 14 churches, 14 palaces, 52 street colonnades, and the towering inner and outer city walls are all built of limestone.
