　　Magic Capital Cairo!

　　 A famous city with a history of five thousand years. The Egyptian pharaoh used to dominate the situation here, and a generation of heroes Saladin inspected his Mamluk cavalry here.

　　 The head of the city has changed with the Great King Banner. Countless heroes and heroes have visited this city. Today, it has welcomed guests from the East.

　　 The Chinese army is fully armed, and the people of Cairo are not panicked. They are accustomed to seeing the world, and I don't know how many unruly troops and tribal cavalry have come to Cairo.

　　 Ali Pasha, the governor of the Ottoman Empire in Egypt, sent his guard of honor to welcome Hong Xi officials into the city!

　　Comparing the two armies, the Southeast Army is neat and well-trained, while the Turkish cavalry is brave and brave.

　　 In front of the majestic Governor's Mansion, Ali Pasha, dressed in a white robe, opened his arms, and embraced Hong Xiguan: "Welcome to you, my friend!"

　　 "My friend, it's nice to see you again!"

　　 The two entered the Governor's Mansion hand in hand. Inside, there is a cavernous sky, the place is vast, the greenery is abundant, and the environment is quiet. The living water is drawn from the Nile River into the mansion, and there is a water pavilion.

　　 Note that this area speaks the word "water" the most. Only when there is water, there is vitality. The governor occupies a source of water, and he deserves to be named Cairo.

　　 The two sat down in the living room of the Governor's Mansion. Ali Pasha brought tea to him. It turned out to be Biluochun from the south of the east. The tea sets were made in Jingdezhen and were all delivered by official Hong Xi.

　　 After telling the situation after the farewell, the official Hong Xi didn't hide from him, and told him about his journey, especially thanks to Ali Pasha's accommodating release, and the generosity of time.

　　 It turned out that Ali Pasha said that he had sent an envoy to Istanbul. He was a local governor, and the exchanges between countries were not before him. He had to report to Istanbul.

It takes time to come and go. In case Istanbul sends a minister to negotiate, it will take longer. Therefore, he intends to let Hong Xi and his party go slowly. His accommodating allows Hong Xi to use the canal route, Port Said, the Nile, and Cairo City has ample time to observe, and even to explore the roads, see enough, see enough.

　　 It is also the good luck of Hong Xiguan. Ali Pasha has been separated from the city of Istanbul and has a bad heart. He intends to let Hong Xiguan get his wish and open the door to everything!

　　 Ali Pasha then arranged a banquet to entertain the distinguished guests from the East, and invited the civil servants and military generals who have been under his command, the wealthy businessmen and social elites in the city to accompany them.

　　 Hong Xiguan told him about his experience. The others are nothing, but the wealthy businessmen are overjoyed and eager to communicate with them.

In recent years, Hong Maofan vigorously explored business, and then merchants from the Southeastern Prefecture came in. The commodity resources of Oriental Ming and Southeastern Province continued to flow into the Ottoman Empire. As an important hub connecting Africa, Europa and Asia, Cairo also had many commodities. Inflow.

　　 Chinese goods are of good quality, but they are expensive. The black-hearted red hairpins have increased their prices greatly. Later, merchants in the southeast province have insufficient goods to store goods, so that the prices remain high.

　　 Today, an envoy from the Southeast Prefecture has arrived, preparing to set up a business hall to form a commercial channel, and then there will be a stable supply of goods. This envoy Hong is a lucky star.

　　 After that, Hong Xi officials stayed in the premises, and there was an endless stream of people who came to visit him. They all talked about the trade between the two sides. Hong Xi officials never refused, and they agreed. Anyway, the gifts were accepted, and the empty cheques were flying all over the sky.

　　 In his spare time, he visited Cairo City with his subordinates and found it worthwhile.

　　 Cairo City straddles the Nile River, with majestic and majestic scenery,

The entire city of Cairo is a veritable historical museum. Everywhere there are architectural signs and art works of dynasties displayed on the roadside in the city. There is the famous Khan Hariri Market, which is located in the old city of Cairo’s central area. There are thousands of individual shops in dozens of small streets and lanes, many of which date back to the 14th century AD, which is quite old!

The road in the market is narrow, and the streets are crowded with small shops. They mainly sell gold and silver jewelry, copper plates, stone carvings, leather goods and other traditional Egyptian handicrafts. The store is simple and the goods are complete. The masters and apprentices in the workshop are based on ancient and old traditions. Teach skills and make crafts, make them on the spot, sell them on the spot, and trade in cash.

The crowds in the market are like the tide, the vendors are nagging, the hippie smiles, and the sales are tough. These enthusiastic vendors, the noisy bargaining noise, the fragrance of spices and the dazzling array of goods that are permeating all around have also made all the Chinese buy it. Many spices, papyrus paintings, Turkish gowns, carpets, copper products, hanging lamps, gold and silver jewelry, hookahs, inlaid boxes, musical instruments, leather goods, pyramids, filled camels, sand painting bottles, pharaoh statues, pottery, etc. Wait, after a few days, they all took off their military uniforms, put on robes, and became authentic Arabs!

　　Life in Cairo is quite comfortable. They enjoy the scenery of the Nile River, the fresh air and the slight breeze in a leisurely mood, walk through the streets and lanes of the ancient city, and enjoy the sights of the ancient city.

The life of Cairo people is quite leisurely. They like to smoke hookahs. There are special hookah shops. The customers order hookahs. The shop will prepare the tobacco and charcoal fire. Finally, the hookah will be brought to the guests. The smoking filter is opened. On the side, as soon as the guest inhales, the smoke gurgles through the clear water in the glass bottle at the bottom ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ a sweet smell permeates.

　　Arabic hookah originally originated in India in the 13th century and became popular in the Middle East since the 16th century. The original hookah and smoking set included cigarette bottles, pipes, air valves, pot bodies, cigarette trays, smoke bays and other parts, composed of coconut shells and diabolo pipes, and were mainly used to smoke old black tobacco. In the Middle East, especially in Turkey and Iran during the ancient Ottoman Empire, hookah was once regarded as the "dancing princess and snake", and then gradually spread to Arab countries and became a common way of smoking tobacco among the people.

Ali Pasha gave them great convenience, sent people to protect them, and show them the way and convenience. For example, they also visited the Al-Azhar Grand Mosque, which was built in 970 AD. It has always retained its original majestic style and spacious courtyard. Surrounded by halls and halls, there are 13 high platforms, 9 gates, and 5 high minarets, with a strong North African and ancient Arabic style.

　　 Originally, outsiders were not allowed to come in, but because Ali Pasha said that the Chinese were humble and this attitude allowed them to look up to the sacred place, they were allowed to visit.

　　 There are many mosques in the city, and the minaret has evolved into a variety of different styles. Whenever the time comes, it will make a sound to call the believers to worship.

　　 During that time, the streets were almost empty, and loud and pious voices of worship came from everywhere in the city!

　　 This is a city with strong religious beliefs. Official Hong Xi thought with the performance of these people in Cairo, hey, it's not a matter of defeating them, it's just that any army that enters the city must properly solve the religious problem.

　　 Happy days always flew fast. People from the Governor's Mansion came and asked them to see the Governor, saying it was news from Istanbul.
