Brunei Port belongs to Brunei City, and Brunei City is the capital of Brunei. Although the Zhiyuan ship sailed into the port, it did not anchor at the port, because they did not understand the berthing conditions of the port, so they did not dare to park rashly. Deng Shichang then sent On the small boat, let Zhong Xinyuan land at the port with the members of the mission and the five-star red flag of China.

Of course, ten marines were accompanying them. After all, this is a British protectorate, and troops must be brought in case of accidents. Brunei is too small, so small that the British did not station troops on it, so the boat landed safely. After landing, there are also many Chinese in Brunei. These Chinese do not believe in Islam. They were very happy to see someone carrying a Chinese flag ashore, and they flocked over.

Zhong Xinyuan asked the Chinese to lead the way for them to the palace of the Sultan of Brunei. The journey was full of tropical scenery, blue sky, white clouds, coconut trees, and golden sand. , the tallest building on both sides of the road is the domed mosque. There are regulations in Brunei: the height of all buildings cannot exceed the mosque.

Brunei Port is not big, so everyone walked for about ten minutes to the Sultan's palace. There were more than a dozen guards standing in front of the palace. Everyone had long swords hanging from their waists, but the long swords were hidden in blue and black shark skin. In the scabbard of the sword, only the thick hilt can be seen.When the guards saw Zhong Xinyuan and the others coming, they drew out their long swords and rushed over. They pointed at the crowd and said, "The palace of the Sultan is ahead, what are you going to do?"

Liu Wu, the captain of the Marine Corps, grabbed a long sword and said in surprise: "Is this the legendary Malay sword? It's so handsome!" "Malay sword" is a famous sword produced in the Malay region. It is the blade that bends like a snake.

When the guard saw that Liu Wu had taken his long sword away, he was furious. Liu Wu hastily returned the sword to him, and said with a smile, "I'm really sorry, it's so interesting to see your sword, I couldn't hold it back for a while."

At this time, Zhong Xinyuan asked the translator to say: "We are the special mission of the Chief Executive of the People's Republic of China, Mr. Lin Yuan, and we have something to see Sudan."

The guard turned around and went in to report, and came back in a short time and said, "The Sultan agrees to see you, please go in, but these people cannot follow."

The crowd followed the guards into the palace. Maybe Brunei was used to peace, or maybe the guards didn't know the marines' guns at all, so they asked the marines to bring their guns in as well.The palace is very small, incomparable with the Forbidden City Palace in China. Compared with the solemn and solemn Forbidden City Palace, the Brunei Sultan’s Palace is more like a large garden. There is a stone road in the yard, and tropical flowers and plants are planted on both sides of the road. Many of them bloomed with colorful flowers.

When they came to the door of the reception room, the attendants asked everyone to take off their shoes. It was very difficult for the marines to take off their boots, so they waited outside and brought a black robe to the accompanying girl Wan'er to put on. Zhong Xinyuan and The members of the mission entered the palace and met the Sultan.

Sudan is a middle-aged man in his 40s. He was a little surprised to see Zhong Xinyuan, and asked, "Is there something that Mr. Lin Yuan sent you to find me?"

Zhong Xinyuan said with a smile: "It will be Eid in a few days, Mr. Lin Yuan asked us to celebrate Eid with you."

Sultan nodded and said: "Well, you and your entourage go to the post to rest first, and we will celebrate with you after Eid al-Fitr."

Zhong Xinyuan said with a smile: "In addition to celebrating Eid together, we also brought a large order, and I hope the Sultan will agree."

Sultan frowned and asked, "Order? What is the order?"

The translator hastily explained: "That is, we want to buy something from you."

The Sudan thought for a while and said, "Brunei is just an ordinary small country. The people are fishing and farming. Is there anything I can sell to you?"

Zhong Xinyuan said with a smile: "There is oil in the waters near you, we can cooperate to develop the oil here, and we can also build a power plant for you, so you don't need to light candles when you pray."

Sultan laughed and said, "You guys go to rest first, it's time for the Fahret now, and I'm going to the mosque to pray to Allah."

Zhong Xinyuan pointed to his clothes and said with a smile: "I am also a believer in Allah, so why don't you invite me to do the Faun together? The Holy Prophet once said: 'The best of you is the one who entertains the Muslim brothers', isn't it? Have you forgotten?" The full name of "Holy Muhammad" is "Muhammad". He is an outstanding politician and religious leader. In the eyes of Muslims, he is the prophet of Islam and the last messenger sent by Allah to the world.

When the Sudan heard Zhong Xinyuan quote the words of the prophet, he looked embarrassed for a while, and said, "Okay, but you don't seem to be all Muslims, do you?"

Zhong Xinyuan said with a smile: "Friends who are not Muslims can go to rest first."

Sultan reluctantly smiled and said: "Okay, come with me, other friends go to rest first." Zhong Xinyuan then took the Muslims in the mission to go to the evening ceremony, and the others went to rest.

The post house is right next to the palace, and few diplomatic envoys come to Brunei, so the post house is empty, and when everyone enters the post house, they all feel relieved. It turns out that Lin Yuan asked them to observe the local customs so as not to cause trouble. Unnecessary trouble, so everyone is careful, and now that no one is looking at them, it's a relief.

At this moment Miss Wan'er said to Liu Wu: "Brother Wu, how did you snatch the sword of that guard today? Teach me, please?"

Wan'er's eyes were full of envy and admiration, Liu Wu's face was hot when she saw it, and she said hesitantly: "Okay... okay, you can find something to use as a sword..."

At this moment, the two of them only heard the voice of a man laughing and talking behind him: "You two young people, don't even think about falling in love."

The two looked back, and saw a middle-aged man standing in front of them. This man was a member of the mission. There were a lot of people in the mission, and they couldn't remember everyone's name, but what this man said The two of them felt uncomfortable for a while, Liu Wu said with a little hostility: "Why don't you go to rest?"

The man smiled and said, "I can see that there will be a war here soon. As the captain of the Marine Corps, you are the main force! Don't think about the little girl."

Liu Wu was taken aback, and said, "Is there going to be a war here? What kind of war is it? Brunei doesn't even have an army."

The man laughed again and said, "Do you dare to make a bet that there will be a war in the next 36 hours."

Liu Wu looked at the strange man in front of him and said, "Who are you?"

The man laughed and said, "Young man, aren't you a member of the Marine Corps? Why haven't you heard of me?"
