Chapter 808

"You may feel a little uncomfortable when the plane takes off later. I have soft candy here. You can chew it later to relieve the pressure on the eardrum." Guo Xiang said and handed over a few sweets.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Zhang Ling took the sugar.

Feng Hai was obviously experienced when she heard that she was still showing off in front of her, and her ears turned red.

"How long does it take to go to port city from here?" Zhang Ling asked again.

"About four hours. You can close your eyes and have a rest." Guo Xiang said.

"How long does it take from the port city to Riyadh?" Zhang Ling asked again.

"It's about ten hours. It's a little long, but you can sleep. You'll get a sleep at that time. There are also plane meals on the plane. Don't worry about getting hungry. " Guo Xiang smiled.

Zhang Ling was a little embarrassed, "I'm not worried about this..."

Guo Xiang smiled, "you have more opportunities to go abroad after you are in the Ministry of foreign affairs. Pay more attention and you will have experience in the future."

"Yes!" Zhang Ling nodded.

Guo Xiang turned back and took the magazine in front.

Four hours later, he arrived at Gangcheng airport and transferred at Gangcheng airport. He waited another three hours before finally taking the flight to Riyadh.

Because the tickets are uniformly booked, they are all economic warehouses.

This time Zhang Ling changed seats with others and moved to Guo Xiang's side, because she felt that Guo Xiang knew more and had a wide range of knowledge, and she felt very safe around her.

Because it was a connecting flight, we all had dinner at the Hong Kong City Airport when we boarded the plane at almost 8 p.m. this time. There were no meals on the plane, but drinks.

Zhang Ling sat beside Guo Xiang and asked in a low voice, "sister-in-law, this is my first time to the Middle East. I'm a little nervous. What do you say I should pay attention to?"

"Didn't your money leader say that just now?" Guo Xiang smiled.

"What he said was so general that it was almost the same as what he didn't say." Zhang Ling skimmed his mouth.

Guo Xiang nodded. "The Saudi Arabia we are going to this time is an Arab country. They are Mu Qilin. There are still many rules."

"For example, women don't shake hands with men. Men should pay attention to this. Don't take the initiative to shake hands with women." Speaking of this, Guo Xiang touched Gu Zhennan. He nodded and said he understood, but even in China, he basically wouldn't shake hands with women.

"It doesn't matter if you are a girl, but be careful not to take pictures of their women." Guo Xiang said to Zhang Ling, "if you have time to play, you should also ask where you can't take photos. Pay attention."

"And they respect their right. They even have to step on their right foot before entering the door. For example, you should use your right hand to eat, receive business cards and gifts. If you use your left hand, they will think it is disrespectful. "

"Of course, it doesn't matter if we stay in a hotel and don't go to other people's homes. If you want to go to temples and other places to play, you should pay attention. You should not only enter the door with your right foot, but also take off your shoes. Women should wear headscarves or robes to enter. " Guo Xiang said.

"So much trouble? Then we won't go to the temple. Besides, I don't know if we have time to play this time. " Zhang Ling said.

Guo Xiang continued: "many Arab countries are forbidden to drink. Even if there are places to drink, we should pay attention. In our country, we often touch glasses and cheers. They can't do it. It's the same with drinking tea. Don't think it's common sense. Many people don't understand it."

Zhang Ling nodded. "I really don't know if you don't say it. It's estimated that many people don't know it? We think it's normal to clink glasses. Where do we want so much? Fortunately, I asked your sister-in-law, otherwise I might make a mistake. "

Feng Hai in the back was surprised. Didn't you think this woman knew so much? Has she been there?

"In short, it's right to be careful in everything. Don't try things you don't know." Guo Xiang said.

"Well, I'll pay attention." Zhang Ling nodded.

"By the way, sister-in-law, I heard it's still summer in Saudi Arabia. I brought summer clothes and a small suit and coat, OK?" Zhang Ling asked.

"Yes, not only is it summer, it should be said that it is all year round. Their country has a tropical desert climate. Even the coldest January has more than ten or twenty degrees, and there is no winter. " Guo Xiang said.

"So it is?" Zhang Ling suddenly realized, "no wonder leader Qian asked us to wear only one winter coat. Don't bring more. It's a burden to bring more."

"The climate there is very dry and the sun is very big. We should pay attention to heat preservation and sunscreen. Have you brought any sunscreen? " Asked Guo Xiang.

"Ah? No, oh, I only brought cream. I think it will be almost the same. Zhang Ling said that Qian leader would not say these small details.

"I brought two. I'll get you one when I get off the plane. When you do translation work, you should also put on makeup. This is polite to people. Just put on light makeup. " Guo Xiang said.

"Well, I thought of that." Zhang Ling nodded. After all, people who have been to the United States still learn some makeup.

"I heard that we mainly participated in the oil field bidding this time. I also learned a lot of oil related terms temporarily. If my sister-in-law doesn't understand, I'll ask you." Zhang Ling said.

"Good!" Guo Xiang nodded. Zhang Linghao was eager to learn and would naturally teach her.

"Sister-in-law, I heard that they have a lot of oil? Everywhere? " Zhang Ling asked again.

"Yes, many, especially Saudi Arabia, account for almost a quarter of the world's oil reserves, ranking first in the world. Along with oil and natural gas, the reserves also rank fourth in the world and are very rich. "

"Why? Why is oil in their country? " Zhang Ling was puzzled.

"This is caused by the geological environment. You don't understand the formation of oil, so you don't know. Let me tell you briefly." Guo Xiang said.

The people on the side pricked their ears when they heard what Guo Xiang said.

"Oil is mainly formed by the changes of prehistoric marine animals and algae bodies. These organics are buried under thick sedimentary rocks after a long geological age and siltation."

"Under the action of underground high temperature and high pressure, they gradually transform to form waxy oil shale, and then degenerate into liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons, which is oil and natural gas."

"Most of Saudi Arabia's land is desert, and a small part is ocean. In fact, the desert may have been ocean before. It only forms desert after crustal movement, sea level rise, sea water retreat, and then strong evaporation. Therefore, there is all oil below. Don't you think there is much?" Guo Xiang said.

"Sister-in-law, how do you know this?" Zhang Ling was surprised. Didn't she study medicine?

"My mother is a teacher at the University of petroleum. I have read these books since I was a child, so I know. Now your cousin is engaged in this industry again. Naturally, she knows more." Guo Xiang smiled.

"Sister-in-law, you're great!" Zhang Ling couldn't help feeling that she couldn't learn a foreign language by herself. Her sister-in-law really knows everything.
