????5. 蘇伊士運河公司

????費迪南?德?雷賽布的公司業(yè)務(wù)是挖掘現(xiàn)代運河,，蘇伊士運河就是由埃及勞工在1869年建成。不過,，這并不是什么原創(chuàng),；早在基督時代以前,，法老就在做著相同的工作。難怪這條102英里長（如今的深度約為78英尺）的運河能成為連接?xùn)|西方的最短路線,?！猅im Smith

????5. Suez Canal Co.

????Fernand de Lesseps’s company dug the modern canal, completed in 1869, using forced Egyptian labor. It wasn’t an original idea; Pharaohs had been doing the same thing in the same place in pre-Christian times. No wonder: The canal, at 102 miles long (and about 78 feet deep today) is the shortest route between the East and the West. —Tim Smith
