Global Food Tour

Chapter 177 When I met Oman for the first time, it cost more than one liter of oil...

While there was still time, Zhang Feng started to learn Arabic, not to speak, Zhang Feng still has some talent for languages, and soon mastered some common Arabic, that is, the pronunciation, Zhang Feng can't pronounce it occasionally, maybe It's because the pronunciation is too fast, and the vocal cords can't adapt to it.

As the plane landed at the airport, Zhang Feng took the salute and officially set foot in Oman, the first country in the United Arab Emirates.

The United Arab Emirates is similar to a federation. Like the United States, this country contains 7 grand duchies: Abu Dhabi (the largest area and the capital), Dubai, Sharjah, Oman, Fujari, Urquiwang and Ras Al Khaimah .The loose federal system adopts a joint strategy in foreign affairs, defense and development, and each member state retains its independence and leadership.

After leaving the airport, Zhang Feng was not in a hurry to take a taxi, but adjusted the time on his watch. Oman was four hours behind Huaxia, which meant that it was twelve o'clock in Huaxia at eight o'clock.

After adjusting the time, Zhang Feng began to study the hotels. Oman, which is full of five-star hotels, was blinded by the people who chose them.

The highways in Oman are different from those in China. There are tall and gorgeous light poles in the middle isolation zone. Street lights are turned on at night, and there are few vehicles on the road. Many street light poles are hung with colorful lights.When approaching the capital of Oman, many illuminated football fields and young people playing football can be seen on the side of the road from time to time.

Seeing that Omanis love football, Zhang Feng couldn't help but said to himself: "No wonder a small country in the Middle East with a land area of ​​30.95 square kilometers and a population of 280 million can become a powerhouse in Asian football."

Thinking of this, Zhang Feng couldn't help but increase his opinion on the national football team, and sighed: "If football can be like ping pong, why not be able to dominate the world?"

Zhang Feng stayed at the IBIS MUSCCAT HOTEL in Muscat, the capital of Oman.The standard room is 33 riyals a day, which is more than 600 yuan, which is not expensive, so the facilities are similar. For Zhang Feng, who just came back from the White Horse Manor, it is just average, and Zhang Feng calculated, it is not as good as staying for one night. It was a lot of fare to take a car just now, so Zhang Feng decided to rent a car in Oman for a self-driving tour.

There are portraits of the king hanging in the hotel. The walls and corridors, including the rooms, are all Omani landscape paintings. Most of them are dilapidated mud walls. However, from the perspective of photography, Zhang Feng definitely has many photos that are shoddy, but he also thinks in his heart. On the other hand, the TV screen in the lobby is showing a football game.

Because of the national football team, Zhang Feng really doesn't know much about football in sports. He probably knows that football in Spain and Brazil is good, unlike table tennis. He still vaguely remembers a lot of jokes about table tennis.

Reporter: How do you feel about winning the world championship this time?

Chinese table tennis player: I will continue to work hard to win a national championship next year.

……

This joke is about the fact that before the men's singles champion was born, there were three Grand Slam players in Chinese men's table tennis: Liu Guoliang, Kong Linghui, and Zhang Jike.

but……

None of the three of them have ever won the men's singles championship in the National Games...

Ma Long is now the first men's singles player to have both a National Games men's singles title and a Grand Slam title.

What other table tennis levels are divided into: easy, normal, difficult, hell, China, Zhang Yining...

Oman's currency is called the rial, and one rial is equivalent to more than 19 yuan. After Zhang Feng exchanged at the hotel, he went back to the room and counted. Looking at the rial in his hand, he felt a little trembling. Distressed about money, the maximum face value of the rial in my hand was 50 yuan, which was about [-] yuan.

After casually eating some supper at the hotel, Zhang Feng washed up and went to bed, somewhat tired.

Early the next morning, the melodious chanting of the Koran came from the tweeters in all directions, waking Zhang Feng up from his sleep, and the trip to Oman officially began. Although he was woken up, he was not irritable.

After waking up, I turned on the TV and tuned to the International Travel News Channel. Just as I was about to wash up, a message came on the screen. A foreign tourist who ate pork was expelled. This news made Zhang Feng understand more, respect a Local religious traditions are actually very important when traveling. It is still not advisable to take risks such as eating pork mentioned on TV. Firstly, it does not respect others, and secondly, it is not worth the risk of flogging and prison.

"By the way, where did you get this pork?" Zhang Feng was speechless. After washing up, he checked out. He was going to find a luxurious five-star hotel, especially a room with a view of the entire city.

When we arrived at a new place, we naturally had to inform our readers. After renting a car, Zhang Feng started the live broadcast.

"Hi, haven't seen you for about a week or two? Do you miss me? Guess where I am?" Zhang Feng was in a good mood, probably because the self-driving tour was very comfortable.

[Arabic, the anchor has removed the middle action (harmony, all the following middle words are replaced by middle action)? 】

【Dubai? 】

[United Arab Emirates? 】

【Qatar? 】

……

Zhang Feng shook his head with a smile, and said, "The United Arab Emirates is barely right. I'm in Oman. I just rented a car. I heard it's a new car today, but the mileage has already run 500. Let's go to fill up the gas first."

Zhang Feng drove the car to the gas station and said fill up in bad Arabic. After filling up the gas, the smile on Zhang Feng's face increased a lot when he paid.

"Can I reveal the oil price?" Zhang Feng couldn't help but ask.

[Say, we are not afraid of being hit! 】

[Don't be cowardly, say, anchor! 】

……

"One yuan is more than one yuan per liter. You can see for yourself. I just calculated it roughly, one yuan and fifty-six cents."

[I'm heartbroken, I'm really heartbroken, I just filled up a tank of gas this morning. 】

[Can you complain about the oil price?When the world rises, he rises, and when the world falls, he remains unchanged...]

[The ups and downs are very well used by people! 】

……

"Ahem, cough, after all, we don't have much oil, everyone... just pretend I didn't say anything, what? You started teasing me before I finished speaking."

In fact, Muscat is not very big, and the buildings and planning are not very concentrated, but relatively scattered. Zhang Feng listened to the song and drove on the road in the city, interacting with the audience in the live broadcast room from time to time. Small white building.

[Why are the buildings all white? 】

"The locals may choose white because of the climate here."

From the urban construction, you can experience relatively pure Arab architecture and culture, which may be the special feature of Muscat.

"Let me introduce Oman. Oman is a country located in southwest Asia and the southeast coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It borders the United Arab Emirates in the northwest, Saudi Arabia in the west, and Yemen in the southwest. It guards the most important oil export channel in the world - the Persian Gulf. The Strait of Hormuz. It is the only country on the Arabian Peninsula that has mountains, beaches and deserts at the same time."

[West grass, the Strait of Hormuz! 】

[The United States often calls for a blockade, threatening China! 】

……

"Everyone, calm down. My visit this time is more complicated. I'm just a travel expert. I don't want to do anything else. You must calm down, calm down, otherwise I will be harmonized, and it will be meaningless. What do you think?" Zhang Feng was really afraid that a group of people would say something that was against the rules.

Regarding Zhang Feng's caution, there are lessons learned from the couple in "Couple Walking", Zhang Feng is still somewhat "cowardly".

"You guys know about Real Man 270 and the others. Be in a good mood, don't bring too much emotion, and understand." Zhang Feng added.

[Hey, I got it, I got it. 】

[The anchor is not afraid, you are a good example of patriotism. 】

[Understand understand. 】

……

Starting from near the hotel last night, Zhang Feng came to Al Falaj, a famous five-star hotel, after admiring the 30 kilometers of picturesque scenery along the way.
