Chapter 783: Reopening

President Hassan has already contacted China's domestic leaders before, but Muyang's visit this time can be regarded as a formal explanation, which is diplomatic etiquette, and sometimes the form is still more important.

President Hassan also expressed regret over the terrorist attack on the embassy by a car bomb, and sincerely expressed that the Somali government would provide appropriate assistance to the Chinese embassy for the smooth reopening of the embassy.

In order to strengthen the security of the Chinese Embassy, Muyang proposed that in order to strengthen the security means, the road in front of the embassy should be protected by long-distance isolation, and isolation piers and checkpoints should be set up at a distance of about 200 meters.

This is equivalent to isolating that section of the road, and it is likely to affect the surrounding traffic and residents' lives. Although this request is somewhat difficult to handle, President Hassan immediately said that he agreed to this request and would assist the Chinese side in setting up the checkpoints.

Now that it was determined that this would be the embassy in the future, Muyang asked for a new wall, a very strong one, and that it be completed in the shortest possible time, and that the embassy also employ four local Somali employees.

Among them, the doorman and the cook are the father and son who handed over the national emblem left in the former Chinese embassy to Muyang when they first came to Somalia.

The old man is less than 50 years old, and he is in charge of janitorial and hygiene, while his son is a chef and can cook Chinese food, although it is a little tasteless, but it is not easy to find a chef in Mogadishu who can make Chinese food.

The other two, one is the driver. The other was the receptionist, both Somali natives who knew English and some Chinese.

Mu Yang watched the excitement of the United States. While completing the plan of the embassy step by step, and the work of the embassy is also proceeding in an orderly manner, finally, on May 20, the work of the embassy was basically completed.

Looking at this two-story building now, it has basically been renovated and repainted. Although it is simply white, it is definitely one of the neatest buildings in Mogadishu, and it is surrounded by a cement fence more than 3 meters high. The original trees in the courtyard have been pruned, and they look less dead and more vibrant, and the ground. The lawn was also paved.

The gate has been replaced with one of those sturdy iron gates. Although it is less artistic, it has more insurance. On the road outside the gate, crash piers and checkpoints have been set up, and if you want to enter the embassy area through this, you must be checked.

Now the security check work here is temporarily entrusted to the Somali government army, and the leader is Second Lieutenant Kedien, who Muyang is more familiar with.

But this guy has been promoted, and now he is Lieutenant Dean.

Muyang believes. It won't be long before the place will be guarded by Chinese soldiers themselves.

If we talk about Somalia now. It is estimated that the best embassy and the safest embassy is the Chinese embassy.

There is no way, the place where I live is isolated, and the travel is all armored vehicles, and the embassies of other countries really can't compare.

Muyang contacted China again and dialed the phone number of Vice Minister Guo's office, and after the secretary answered, he was told that Vice Minister Guo was in a meeting, and waited for more than an hour before calling back again.

"Muyang, is there something wrong?" Vice Minister Guo's tone is very kind, he has been in contact with Muyang a few times, and now he is familiar with Muyang.

"Minister, I would like to report to you that the resumption of the Somali museum is nearing completion, and the resumption ceremony can be started at any time, and I will ask you when the museum will officially reopen." Muyang said.

"Oh, it's done, it seems that your work efficiency is very high, in this way, I will talk to Minister Yang, and then determine the time." Vice Minister Guo said.

In fact, the time that needs to be determined is whether the leaders have time, and when the resumption ceremony is held, China is ready to send a vice minister to preside over it, and of course, Vice Minister Guo, who is in charge of African work, is the first choice.

The working hours of the leaders are very tight, basically calculated in minutes, and if you want to leave for Somalia, you need to arrange the time in advance, so you need to discuss it.

In the afternoon, Muyang received an official notice from the ministry that on the 25th, Vice Minister Guo will arrive in Somalia, on the 26th, Vice Minister Guo will visit President Hassan, on the 27th, the official resumption ceremony will be held, and on the 28th, he will return to China.

At that time, Vice Minister Guo will arrive in Somalia together with the new Somali Ambassador Liu Yunju and his staff to officially start diplomatic work in Somalia.

Muyang once again walked aside to visit the process, told President Hassan the date of the resumption of the Chinese Embassy, and invited him to participate, and then the Somali government, military departments, all those who can be qualified to attend the opening consciousness, Muyang invited again.

Then I notified the UN special envoy, the ambassadors of various countries in Somalia, the president of the Somali Chinese organization, and the reporters.

The time soon came to the 25th, Muyang took 4 members of the team to return to the museum, 4 armed policemen, drove two fully armed armored vehicles, hired a minibus, and also called Captain Kedean's armored convoy, and the convoy went to the airport to pick up the airport.

This time, the plane is a small passenger plane specially rented by China from Dubai, so it is much more comfortable than when they came to Muyang, so Vice Minister Guo and Ambassador Liu will not be able to enjoy the taste of high-altitude roller coasters for the time being.

Also at the airport were Somali Foreign Minister Bellé, who also arrived in an armoured vehicle, and other Somali government officials.

A medium-sized passenger plane landed slowly and finally stopped on the tarmac, the plane boarding ladder was pushed over, the cabin door opened, and the first to come out was Vice Minister Guo.

When Muyang saw Vice Minister Guo, he actually had a sense of intimacy, not how close Muyang was to Vice Minister Guo, but the feeling of being far away in a foreign country and finally seeing his relatives.

Mu Yang and other members of the resumption team, Somali Foreign Minister Bele and Somali staff all applauded, and behind Vice Minister Guo, there was also a group of Chinese, about a dozen people, Vice Minister Guo walked down the hanging ladder and shook hands with Minister Belle who greeted him.

The people in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are absolutely proficient in English at the very least, so there is absolutely no problem for the two to communicate.

After the greetings, he met with several senior government officials in Somalia to shake hands and greet him, and finally Muyang and others.

Muyang held Vice Minister Guo's hand with both hands, Vice Minister Guo also held Muyang's hand tightly, patted Muyang's right shoulder with his left hand, and said in his mouth: "Xiao Mu, I've worked hard for you." (To be continued.) )
