It should be said that this is not considered as not paying attention to it. After all, Jiang Feng was just passing by in Egypt and had no intention of formal visits. Therefore, it was already good that the other party sent an assistant to the chief to show his friendship.

The mistake is that they do not understand the thoughts of their Chinese people and underestimate Jiang Feng's huge influence. If the attitude can be more correct, the level of visitors can be higher, the attitude is more enthusiastic, and the hospitality is more thoughtful. In that case, Jiang Feng must immediately agree to invest hundreds of millions of dollars in Egypt to express his views, or if there are appropriate projects, he might have to take more major measures.

What a pity, it's a pity.

Jiang Feng was a little interested in the life of ordinary people in Egypt, so he took a few bodyguards with Lin Chiling and Lin Ruiyu, and led the embassy staff to go on the streets. Sure enough, the feeling here gave him a bit messy, a bit like the feeling of a domestic market in the 1980s.

Jiang Feng and others were walking around an arts store. While watching and playing with the crafts, they suddenly found that the owner hurriedly covered some of the counters. I wonder what the purpose was?

"Oh, there must be needles in that counter." The embassy responded immediately when he heard Jiang Feng ask.

"There is a needle? What does that mean?" Jiang Feng didn't understand what was said here.

So the staff of the embassy explained to Jiang Feng. After hearing this, everyone suddenly realized and thought that this was the case.

Needles are tools for sewing clothes, almost a must-have daily necessities for every family, but they have a bit of mysterious color in the minds of Egyptians.

Every afternoon... until five o'clock, the Egyptians never sell needles. This has become an unwritten precept in their lives.

According to legend, at this time of day, a god descends to earth to give people some necessities of life. However, the gods have to personally understand people's respective situations. The richer people will receive more rewards; the poorer people will receive more rewards. The poorer people will receive more rewards all day long. In order to ensure that the poor people receive more rewards and avoid difficulties for life, people will never sell needles at this time.

Under the influence of this myth, some people in Egypt did not even dare to do needlework at night, otherwise they would think it would bring disaster to their mothers. Some women in rural areas also regard borrowing needles as a taboo. When they have to borrow, the lender would insert the needle into bread and hand it to the borrower. The borrower would not dare to take out the needle with his hands in person.

Acupuncture sometimes becomes a verbal word for some women to scold each other. If a woman is scolded as an injection, she will feel as if she has suffered a great shame and is in vain.

Today, needles still have their unique and legendary status in the minds of Egyptians. The taboos for needles have also been passed down, becoming a custom among Egyptian people.

"Every place has its own customs. It turns out that you don't know if you don't watch it. The world is so wonderful." Jiang Feng couldn't help but remember a line from the Zhengda variety show in the CCTV column before.

Jiang Feng and his party did not stay in Cairo. After watching the pyramids and sphinx like a flower, they looked at the Egyptian Museum and then continued to fly west together.

Jiang Feng’s target is West Africa, for nothing else, because according to his understanding, there are large iron ore and copper ore here.

Although several countries with large iron ore and copper ore have been controlled by him, there are still other countries.

In fact, for Chinese people, it is very difficult to truly align with the international community and be able to participate in the international game of interest. Some domestic experts talk about buying China's foreign exchange reserves into strategic resource reserves, which is tantamount to talking about it on paper.

For example, if you want to invest in West Africa, although Jiang Feng has a lot of money in his hands, it also needs to be introduced by someone, otherwise it will be difficult to gain the trust of the locals.

This time he came here, he also used the family forces of the French and Germans who had worked with before to introduce his local tribe king. He had already communicated some things before, and both sides had a full understanding of each other, so he took this opportunity to set foot on the African continent.

The two families that cooperated with Jiang Feng had been colonized in Africa for many years. Although they are no longer in Africa, there is no problem to introduce Jiang Feng to the cooperation. At the same time, these two families also have certain control over the smelting industry in Europe. At the same time, they have extensive personal connections in Africa. They need Chinese markets and Chinese capital. Therefore, when Jiang Feng revealed that he was interested in investing in African mining, the other party enthusiastically expressed his friendship and arranged this trip to Africa for him.

Jiang Feng and others have no idea about West Africa. In their impression, they should be a relatively poor and backward indigenous place. If you generously throw down more than a dozen breads, hundreds of poor people will come to snatch them.

But when they arrived at their destination, the scene in front of them still surprised them. Jiang Feng’s first feeling was, is this Africa?

Not only are the roads here spacious and tidy, the houses are unique and beautiful, and the environment is clean and beautiful. What surprised them the most was that the taxis here were all Mercedes-Benz 320, which looked like the most developed countries in the West. It was completely different from the sufferings and famines in their minds. The famine and wars were rampant.

"I'm x! Is this Africa?" Jiang Feng couldn't help but swear, obviously feeling very unbalanced.

However, he thought about it again and again, this was normal. The African countries that were willing to establish diplomatic relations with China were basically poor countries, so they were mainly used to the propaganda of Africa. After so many years, they have become accustomed to it. However, these countries have fought and killed for decades and have almost no improvement, so they still look poor and in a poor way. As for these rich countries, their relationship with China is optional, and they are not very interested in us, so of course they won’t report it much.

There is another problem, that is, the relationship between domestic and African countries is based on foreign aid, so when reporting, it is always associated with aid.

If everyone sees that the taxis in African countries are all Mercedes-Benz 320, will anyone still be willing to continue to provide assistance? So, the media's public opinion propaganda is guided. After this understanding, I suddenly realized it.

Jiang Feng and the others came here this time very well. Because of the preparations in front, the reception specifications of the other party were also very high. The brothers of the local tribe chief were greeted by six BMWs and a convoy with them, with a total of more than twenty cars.

It’s just that the airport is a bit far from the destination, and it took more than ten hours to drive along the way to the place.
