"Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs?" Jiang Feng frowned, thinking that he had nothing to do with Egypt, how could they notice their arrival?

In fact, Jiang Feng came to Egypt this time and did not intend to reach a large-scale cooperation with the Egyptian government like in South Africa. Therefore, he did not intend to have any intersection with the Egyptian government.

According to the people of the embassy, ​​when meeting government officials, companies and companies in Egypt, or friends at home, you must make an appointment and not be an uninvited guest. However, due to special circumstances, the hospitality of Egypt will not be as common as Westerners. They will always smile and welcome.

Work-oriented meetings are held in the office. Except for senior officials, no one treats you as a VIP and sends you to the reception room to pick you up and drop you off. The people who meet often talk to you while working. If the subordinates send a document that must be signed, or if they come out to talk for a few minutes, you will be left alone and ignored by others. If you encounter such a thing a few times, you will gradually get used to this Egyptian-style meeting.

But it is obvious that it is a bit surprising that people from the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs rashly visit Jiang Feng.

Despite this, Jiang Feng still agreed to let the other party come in, and the embassy was accompanied by others, so as not to avoid any obstacles in communication between the two parties or misunderstandings due to different customs and habits.

Egyptians have many habits, and most of them are like this. They think the right is better than the left, and the right is auspicious. Doing things starts with the right hand and the right foot. Shaking hands, dining, and delivering things must be done with the right hand. Wearing the right sleeve first when wearing clothes, wearing shoes first. When entering the door of the house and the mosque, we must first step with the right foot.

The reason is that Muqilin uses his left hand when he is "convenient" and does dirty work. Therefore, the left hand is considered unclean, and it is extremely impolite to shake hands with others or hand over things with his left hand, and even considered insulting.

There are also some taboos in clothing. For example, according to Islamic teachings, women's "charming things" cannot be seen by others outside their husbands. Even the same sex should not see each other's shame. Therefore, short, thin, transparent and exposed clothing is forbidden. Even the baby's body should not be uncovered, and there is no public bathhouse on the street.

In Egypt, women with bare chests and backs or short skirts cannot be seen, nor men with vests and shorts.

Although Egyptians are tolerant to foreigners and are not as harsh as some Islamic countries, one thing to remind you is that in Egypt, wearing vests, shorts and miniskirts is strictly prohibited from going to mosques.

Another interesting thing is that you should not yawn. Usually, try not to yawn or sneeze in front of Egyptians. If you really can’t control it, you should turn your face and cover your mouth and say “I’m sorry”.

The Egyptians hate yawning and think that yawning is the devil's worship. A person yawns like a sin. After the yawning, he will hurriedly say, "Please forgive Allah."

However, sneezing in Egypt is not necessarily a bad thing. If a person sneezes before everyone, he will say, "I testify: All not the Lord, but Allah." And the person next to him says, "Allah loves you." He will then say, "Allah is merciful to me and everyone."

Egypt is a world-famous ancient civilization. It strictly abides by Islamic rules in diet. During Ramadan, it is fasted during the day, does not eat any taboos, does not eat red juice and unripe dishes when eating, does not talk to others, and does not make noises when drinking hot soup and drinks. It is not allowed to come back after the food is in its mouth, and it is taboo to touch the food utensils and food with your left hand.

When the Egyptians held wedding events, they liked to hold big banquets. In addition to inviting guests, relatives and friends, some people who had no relationship with their hosts could also come and were also warmly treated. They were customary to first serve chocolate and fruit, then recite the Quran, eat broth, soaked buns, rice and boiled meat, and finally serve snacks and snacks.

When the Egyptians treat guests, the seats also pay attention to their identity and rank. The host is used to swearing guests to eat more, and they are very enthusiastic from beginning to end. The more dishes, the better. Even if they are served up and then served, the host and guests are very happy. Because this is one of the signs of generosity and hospitality.

Friends are extremely enthusiastic when they meet. Generally, when they meet someone they are not familiar with, the person who greets them first will say greetings that are common to Muslims all over the world: "Ansai and Muerle come to Kum" (Naesawa means "peace to you", meaning "hello") If you are old friends, especially when you meet again after a long time, you will hug them and give them a voucher, that is, use your right hand to hold the other person's left shoulder, and hug the other person's waist with your left hand, first left and then right, each one or more times, and you will also send a string of greetings like a cannon.

If you come to visit friends, the host will repeat once or more times: "I love Helan Usehlan Umairhaban" (meaning "You meet relatives, you walk on the plains, welcome you.") Sometimes it also simply says: "I love Helan! I love Helan!"

Women use gentle veneer gifts for politeness or intimacy, usually once on the right and once on the left.

The opposite sex usually shakes hands, and only relatives give vouchers. Men and women don’t shake hands. Men should not actively extend their hands. They should not cross their hands when shaking hands, that is, four people hold face to face in a "cross" shape. Men must stand up from their seats when shaking hands, while women do not have to. They can continue to sit in a chair.

Another point is that Egyptians do not avoid foreign home visits, and they even welcome foreigners to visit and take pride in them. However, visits to the opposite sex are prohibited, and even among Egyptians, male and female classmates and colleagues cannot visit each other.

Except for poverty-stricken outdoors, Egyptians have living rooms at home. As a private room, outsiders are not welcome to enter.

Although both the people in the embassy and Lin Chi-ling introduced Jiang Feng a lot about Egypt, after the other party's foreign ministry officials arrived, they were very enthusiastic about contacting Jiang Feng with Western etiquette and greetings in quite proficient English.

Jiang Feng's English proficiency is still OK. He smiled and greeted him, then invited the guests to sit down and entertained him with domestic tea.

The other party was an assistant minister of the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He first expressed a warm welcome to Jiang Feng's arrival on behalf of the Egyptian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the President. Then he carefully stated whether Mr. Jiang could participate in an event held by the government, or did he have any interest in developing several major projects in Egypt?

Jiang Feng also sincerely stated that the Jiang family consortium already has the intention to invest in Egypt, and a special delegation will come to Egypt to discuss the matter soon. This time he appeared in Cairo as a private trip. However, he felt the traditional friendship between the two countries and was willing to donate one million US dollars to improve the local school environment.
