Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Today is not April Fool's Day; the world is increasingly confused about what is going on! When did the British Empire ever surrender? This was true even when faced with the powerful Germany during World War II.

Is it because our ancestors were too good at fighting, or because the British today have lost their blood? They actually compromised with Egypt and took the initiative to return the 12 pyramid spiers. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Egypt has stepped up inspections of ships navigating the Suez Canal; it is clearly aimed at the United Kingdom.

Although other countries will also be affected to a certain extent, it will not be huge; after all, only the United Kingdom in Europe is currently in a state of war. In addition, there are few local resources, and even the most basic daily necessities must be transported by sea.

Once there is a problem with the Suez Canal, life will not be easy for the British Empire. Therefore, when the United Kingdom called on European countries to jointly put pressure on Egypt, no country responded.

On the one hand, I am disgusted with what the British did before. The most important thing is that the British Empire is called a poor country at the moment. It doesn't matter who borrows money from whom, but it is not that bad. In such a sensitive period, we dare not get too close to the British; otherwise we will easily suffer losses!

Besides, it is not worth offending Egypt; the other side holds the Suez Canal and can do whatever they want; life for the country is not easy. It is clearly aimed at the UK and there is no need to join in the fun. The core of getting along between countries is interests; why try something that is thankless?

Britain took the initiative to return cultural relics to Egypt, and it was also the top of the pyramid; this gave other countries hope. Several ancient countries in the world did not catch up with the first industrial revolution; they were stuck in the old ways and it was difficult to change their thinking for a while.

Not participating in the first industrial revolution meant lagging behind in development; coupled with one's staggering wealth, one would naturally be remembered. Britain has been the world's most powerful country for a long time, and it has spanned the oceans for hundreds of years; it has plundered cultural relics from many countries in the world.

Now that the British have compromised with Egypt, many countries that think they are powerful and can threaten Britain are starting to make moves. The return of cultural relics can greatly boost public sentiment and increase support; as a head of state, he instinctively thinks that something should be done.

At this time, in a luxurious villa in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, a middle-aged man said to the young man: "I didn't expect that the British would not be able to withstand Egypt before it fully exerted its strength; it seems that the so-called British Empire is more of an empty frame. "

"Since Egyptian cultural relics can be returned, the previously plundered ancient Babylonian cultural relics cannot continue to be placed in the British Empire Museum. We must find a way."

"Bao Zixuan is currently in Egypt. Things shouldn't be such a coincidence; he must have given the idea. Although Mubarak is not stupid, he will never think about cultural relics! In addition, the richest man Bao has not made any promises. Egypt People may not dare to attack Britain."

"Go to Egypt in person and ask Bao Zixuan for advice in person; the other party will probably not refuse. Deep down, I wish that the British would be unlucky. In addition, that guy should have a way to force the French to commit the crime; the most important cultural relics in Iraq cannot be put away. It’s a shame to go to your own museum!”

The young man said without any hesitation: "Okay, I know how to do it!"

If Bao Zixuan were here, he would definitely be familiar with the two people talking; they are the current president and the second son of Iraq.

In the East of the world, around 3500 BC, the earliest slave country of mankind appeared; and advanced casting technology was developed. Around 2250 BC, the Sumerians living here created an advanced civilization; they not only invented writing - cuneiform writing, which brought the Mesopotamia into a historical period with written records. A tool suitable for writing - clay tablets - was also invented.

In 2 BC, the Urdi Dynasty established the Babylonian Kingdom and settled in the Mesopotamia. The fertile soil and high civilization of the two river basins injected fresh blood into the Amorites; in the following hundreds of years, city-states such as Mali, Yixin, and Larsa were established one after another.

At the beginning of the 18th century BC, the ancient Babylonian Kingdom rose. Under the leadership of Hammurabi, it became an empire encompassing the entire Mesopotamia.

In order to strengthen his rule, Hammurabi formulated the Code of Hammurabi, the world's first relatively complete written code in ancient times. He also used religion to consolidate his politics, claiming that he was God's favorite.

At present, the stele of the Code of Hammurabi has become one of the most representative cultural relics in the Louvre Museum in France. Of course, compared to the French, the British plundered only many more cultural relics.

Egypt has made a good start. At this time, Iraq is not completely out of the haze of war; but it is much better than before. Neighboring Arab countries support it on the one hand; Hong Kong and Japanese businessmen also played key roles in the development process. Coupled with the advanced weapons and equipment in hand; even Israel does not dare to act rashly; the situation is stable, combined with the country's rich oil and gas resources, it is not difficult to develop the economy.

There is currently no war, and the Iran-Iraq war also made the Iraqi president understand that economic development is the right way, as long as the country does not suffer aggression; there is no need to use force.

Being a soldier, there is absolutely no shortage of necessary vigilance, so when shopping for weapons and equipment, you never worry about money. Looking at the entire Middle East, the military strength is always at the forefront!

As the domestic situation is stable, it is natural to do something else; Egypt can take back its cultural relics, and Iraq cannot lag behind. Now the whole world is paying attention, including inside Iraq; if Mubarak shows his face, others cannot show their butts.

Bao Zixuan was preparing to take a rest when his subordinates came in to report that a guest had arrived; this made him very confused. The subordinates were able to come in and report, which meant that the person coming was of high status; he turned out to be the second young master of Iraq, and he understood something instantly.

It seems that the Iraqi father and son are really unwilling to be lonely and want to get involved in everything. If you think about it carefully, isn't this what he wants to see?

Currently, the UK imports part of its oil from Iraq. Does it want to use oil to control the British Empire? There is only one Suez Canal, but there are many oil exporting countries. In addition, the British oil industry is very complete. If it were not for the war, there would be no need to import.

The world has suffered from Britain for a long time, and when the time comes for the British Empire to repay its debts; if all oil countries unite, things will be different.

Instead of choosing to be in the living room, I asked someone to take the second young master to the study; this would make him appear closer.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Second Young Master, why do you suddenly think of coming to Egypt, not to mention specifically to visit my old friend, otherwise I will be moved to tears!"

The relationship is already very familiar, and there are only two of them at the moment; there is no problem in Lala's homely life.

The second young master smiled and said: "I came to Egypt to discuss the issue of oil tanker navigation. I want to see what Egypt means. The impact of the Iran-Iraq war on Iraq is really great. If there are problems with oil transportation, it will seriously hinder the development of the domestic economy. .”

"I heard that you are also in Egypt. I thought I would have nothing to do tonight. I just happened to come over and sit here, so I won't disturb your rest!"

They are all young people, so chatting is relatively easy; they don’t feel very tired, which makes Bao Qingfu very comfortable!

The longer navigation time of the Suez Canal will not only affect the UK; it will also have a small impact on oil exporting countries. Especially a country like Iraq that has just experienced a war and is in urgent need of funds.

Countries in the Middle East have no other commodities to offer except oil and natural gas. Europe is also a large energy consumer, and there are problems with the Suez Canal; the biggest impact is on oil and natural gas exports.

In fact, all of this is an excuse, I just don't want to reveal the true purpose; it does have an impact on Iraq, but it is not as big as imagined. You can’t say that you came to Egypt just to meet you, even if you are familiar with it; you still have to pay attention to certain things.

Bao Zixuan: "You also know that I don't usually go to bed that early."

"You don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, and you don't drink. There must be other things. As a friend, if you have anything to say, tell me directly; why are you being polite to me!"

They are both powerful people, and their friendship is more based on interests; if there is nothing important, they will definitely not come over at night.

The second young master did not hide anything and said directly: "Mr. Bao, the British announced the return of the twelve pyramid spiers plundered during the colonial period to Egypt. I believe you already know this, and you can even be said to be one of the participants in the incident."

"As a descendant of ancient Babylon, Iraq does not want to see its precious historical relics lost overseas and displayed in museums in other countries. I thought you must have a way to see if there is a chance to get some cultural relics back from the UK."

"It is better to bring France together; the Code of Hammurabi is always kept in the Louvre and has become a shame to the whole of Iraq!"
