When we talk about Egypt, we usually say pyramids, mummies, sphinxes, Cleopatra, etc., which are all the Egypts we are familiar with. However, there is one thing in Egypt that makes people feel incredible, and it can be said to be "囧" in one word.
There was once a king in Egypt named Farouq I, who, as the king of a country, had all the treasures of gold and silver, but what he did made people cry and laugh. Born in the royal family, it can be said that he holds the golden key, and Farouk I, as the heir of the old king, will sooner or later become the king of a country, so the old king attaches great importance to his education. But Farouq I did not like to study, and his father sent him to England to study. But in those years in England he learned everything but study. The old king had no choice but to let him go. At the age of 16, the old king died, and he returned to Egypt to inherit the throne and officially became the king of Egypt.
After becoming king, Farouk I let go of himself, without scruples, and did whatever he wanted. As the king of a country, Farouk I had all kinds of gold and silver jewelry, and the glory and wealth were inexhaustible, but he had a quirk - he liked to steal. To this end, Farouq I also specially invited a pickpocket master to teach himself. After studying, Farouq I's stealing skills were perfected. What kind of skin bag, pliers to clip money, these things are all pediatrics for Farouq I, and they can't be on the table. Farouq I stole whatever he wanted. When Farouq I was dancing with a lady, he wanted to steal something, so he would steal someone else's watch or lipstick or something. Even the famous British Prime Minister Winston Churchill became the target of his theft.
Churchill had a watch at the time, which made Farouq I salivate, and he vowed to get it. The conference was held in 1943 in the Egyptian capital, and Churchill, as British Prime Minister, also attended the meeting. Churchill's arrival was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Farouq I. So at a banquet, he got his hands on it and finally got the watch. When Churchill found out that the watch was missing, he began to suspect the people present at the time, but he never expected that the watch was actually stolen by Farouq I. When Churchill learned that the watch had been stolen by Farouq I, he cried out to God in surprise. When Churchill demanded that Farouq I return his watch, Farouq I did not admit that he had stolen it, or did not return the watch. In the end, Churchill had no choice but to protest against Egypt through diplomatic means. Later, seeing that this matter was a big trouble, Farouk I returned the watch in order to calm the people.
As long as it is something that Farouq I looks up to, whether it is a living person or a dead person, he dares to steal it. In 1944, the King of Iran died in South Africa, and the coffin needed to be transported back to Iran. As they passed through Egypt, Farouq I saw that the coffin contained many valuable things, so when no one was ready, he took some treasure belts, swords, and medals. As a king, he lacked nothing, so what Farouq I stole was never sold, but only collected to satisfy his own quirks. He built a special warehouse with his own stolen things. Whenever Farouq I was in a bad mood, he came to the warehouse to see his "results" and immediately became happy.
