Godly Fisherman

Xiao Peng went to the cockpit: "Is it a pirate ship? How much?"

Wang Hu said: "It doesn't look like a pirate ship, just a ship, and the hull is not big."

"Be prepared and fire directly when there is a problem," Xiao Peng said.

However, Xiao Peng’s worries seemed to be superfluous. It was an old-fashioned fishing boat with the Yemeni flag. It was not easy for this broken boat to get here from Yemen. It is at least a hundred nautical miles away from Yemen.

And there are only three people on the ship, one man and two women. This Nima is even less like a pirate. You can't let women wear BURQA to robbery, right?

BRUQA is a gown worn by Islamic women. It is well known that Islamic women wear headscarves, and there are many types of headscarves, such as BRUQA. It is to cover the whole body and the face; another example is ABYA, which is a large black robe that covers all parts except the face. Another example is CHADOR, which is similar to a shawl, but has no fixed buttons, so you can only hold it firmly with your hands. Another example is HIJAB, which is just a headscarf covering the shoulders.

People in every Arab country wear different styles. For example, Iranian women wear CHADOR. For example, Afghanistan and Pakistan are wearing BRUQA. Yemeni women generally bring HIJAB.

The Yemeni ship approached, and Xiao Peng knew that this ship turned out to be a merchant ship?

The owner of the ship is called Baishar, and the other two women are his wives Hina and Hassan. Well, he actually has two wives at home who are responsible for taking care of the children. Islam allows him to marry four wives. Peshar did not waste any places.

They are usually in this sea area, waiting for passing ships to sell goods.

Of course, marrying four wives doesn’t mean you’ll be fine. You have to make the assets completely fair. You built a room for the boss? Then you must build a room for the second, third and fourth! Don't favor one another, or you will go to the religious court every minute to sue you!

Of course, not everyone can marry four wives. Those who marry four wives now are either rich or poor.

Rich men marry four wives because they don’t care, and poor men marry four wives because of increased labor. . . . . .

But Peshar, obviously belongs to the latter.

Yemen is now full of war. There is no market for merchants in the country-ordinary people can't eat food anymore, and they still buy these messy things?

Bessal came up with such a way to sell domestic products at sea.

Of course, in this poor place of Yemen, there are no commodities that can be easily obtained. There are only three kinds of goods for sale on Peshar’s ship: waist knives, coffee beans, and Katye.

Yemeni waist sword, also known as Jiangbia, is a symbol of Yemeni men. All Yemeni men over the age of thirteen will wear a waist sword to show their bravery and self-confidence.

Yemen waist knives are very exquisitely made. The scabbard handles are generally made of sterling silver or silver-plated with gemstones. There are also cheap handles made of plastic. It looks very beautiful, so Yemeni government officials will give the waist knife as an important gift to distinguished guests.

Needless to say, coffee, the famous Mocha coffee was born in Yemen.

To be precise, Mocha is the name of a port in Yemen. It used to be the largest coffee trading market in the Middle East. More than 70% of Yemeni coffee was traded and shipped in Mocha Port.

And because of the high quality of coffee in Yemen, all coffee shipped from Mocha Port is called Mocha instead of an inherent coffee variety.

Unfortunately, Yemenis did not seize the business opportunities here, and more and more coffee trees have been replaced by Carter trees. At present, the planting area of ​​Carter trees in Yemen has exceeded 10% of the total arable land in Yemen.

The reason why Yemen is poor is also related to the Carter tree. Ancient Arabs used Katye as a substitute for alcohol, so Katye was also called Arabic tea.

Most countries in the world believe that Katye and opium-cocaine are also narcotics and their use is prohibited, but there are still many Arab countries that are still growing them for food.

In Yemen, 90% of men and 50% of women chew Katy leaves.

They will even make the best room in the house a special room for chewing kate leaves. Every afternoon, a group of people get together to chew kate leaves. In this country, no one works in the afternoon and they are all chewing kate leaves. Too! Can such a country not be poor?

Since the growth period of the Carter tree can reach a hundred years, and its vitality is extremely tenacious. The management is also simple, and there are harvests in the first year of planting, so in Yemen, there are not as many carters as there are farmers, which has caused poverty and hunger. Moreover, the cost of Katye is staggering. Yemeni households spend more than 50% of their average total income to buy Katye.

Bessal smiled, holding a handful of carter leaves in both hands: "Dear guest, my carter leaves are of the best quality, as you can see, they are all fresh buds."

Xiao Peng shook his head: "I don't need this." Qianliyan's first rule was anti-drug, can Xiao Peng touch Carter?

But Peshar was not disappointed. He was not afraid that Katye would not be sold. What he cared about was the sale of other commodities: coffee and knives.

Peishaer opened the sack of coffee beans and said, "This is the best Mocha coffee bean. Look, how full and shiny the particles are." After that, he took out the grinder coffee pot and cooked Xiao Peng. Pot of coffee for a few people to taste.

Xiao Peng didn't know coffee at all, but Gina said that it tasted good, which means that the coffee beans are indeed good and the price is too cheap. 5000 rials a sack. After switching to Hua Xia coins, it was more than 200. Xiao Peng simply came to him and gave him 3000 meters of gold and bought more than 100 bags. But it broke Besharle.

Xiao Peng doesn't like coffee, but how about buying it as a gift?

However, the Yemen waist knife is indeed what Xiao Peng likes.

Men like cold weapons.

A silver Yemeni waist knife cost 20,000 rials, which is equivalent to one hundred meters of gold. After Xiao Peng and him bargained desperately, they bought fifty in one go at the price of 70 meters of gold. I am willing to buy more, but the rest are cheap plastic handles, which Xiao Peng looks down on.

"Is this a souvenir when I return to China?" Xiao Peng tied his waist knife to his waist and showed it to Yang Meng with joy.

Yang Meng sneered coldly, "Is this a control knife?"

Really, in Huaxia, even daggers must be approved by the public security organs at or above the county level before issuing a "Dagger Wearing Permit" to be considered legal. This is why in China, as long as a criminal is caught, there is usually one crime: carrying a controlled knife.

Most people don't know that it is illegal to carry a bullet-spring-knife. Many young people take a fashionable dagger, but they don’t know that they end up on this small dagger!

Xiao Peng smiled: "Buy it back and hang it at home. You are not running around the street with you. What are you afraid of? Besides, what happened to the control knives? We not only have control knives on board, but also gun RPGs, and even'alligators.' ', I would like to see, which Huaxia policeman is in charge."

Yang Meng was stunned for a long time, then stretched out his hand and said to Xiao Peng, "Okay! You bull!"

This is a veritable fox fake tiger prestige.

But the happiest person on board was Gina. She likes coffee very much--it's a national habit.

She is really not used to drinking tea. . . . . .

To say, Gina's coffee brewing method is really good, Xiao Peng also likes drinking this stuff, Xiao Peng also gave He Jianye two sacks, and the feedback received was that it was delicious. It seems that this coffee was bought correctly. Just don't be deceived.

"Captain Xiao, let me tell you the good news. We have already passed the Gulf of Aden." He Jianye's voice was very excited on the radio. After all, he passed by the pirates this time, which was very thrilling.

Xiao Peng smiled and said: "Yes, Captain He, where is your next stop? Will you go back to China directly?"

He Jianye sighed and said: "It's just that way, I'm going to lie down in Abu Dhabi to pick up the goods. I'm afraid we will be separated."

Xiao Peng is free and easy: "It's okay, we meet in the mountains and rivers, we have the opportunity to see you in China!"

He Jianye nodded and said, "Yes, Xiao Xiao, I really thank you this time. If it weren't for you, nothing might happen."

"What a big deal, we are all Huaxia people," Xiao Peng said with a smile.

"Okay, it's all big lords, don't be so hypocritical, go back to China, I invite you to drink!" He Jianye said.

"No problem, Daoqin Island will look for me at that time, and I will cook and entertain you myself." Xiao Peng agreed.

He Jianye thought for a while: "Xiao Xiao, I don't know where the weapons on your ship came from, but you must listen to me. First, only go on the high seas. Second, you must be vigilant when crossing the Strait of Malacca. Then There are more pirates on the side than Somalia."

Xiao Peng smiled: "I hope those pirates don't provoke me with long eyes, or I will show them good looks."

He Jianye said: "The situation over there is different from that here. The pirates over there are mainly small thefts who sneaked into the ship in the middle of the night to steal things, but in the past two years there have also been incidents of holding ships. Now Southeast Asia has replaced Africa. It has become the most rampant area of ​​pirates in the world. When you get there, you must be careful with Abu Sayyaf."

"Abu Sayyaf? Who? What?" Xiao Peng had never heard of this name.

He Jianye said: "That's not a person's name, it's the name of an organization. It is the armed forces in the southern part of the Philippines, and it is closely related to Al Qaeda. It is a cancer in Southeast Asia. You must be vigilant."

"Captain He, don't worry. I don't care about Abu Sayyaf or Abu Stupid Coconut. If I don't provoke me, I will let them know why the flowers are so red." Xiao Peng said grandiosely.

He Jianye heard Xiao Peng's words and didn't say much. He could only wish Xiao Peng every success.

The two separated at the estuary of the Gulf of Aden, and Tianyu-3 traveled along the coast to Abu Dhabi. Xiao Peng, on the other hand, drove directly across the Arabian Sea, bypassing Asan and Sri Lanka, to the Strait of Malacca.
