Chapter 482 Ready to get married
An Boyin, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Angolan Armed Forces, returned to Angola by special plane after completing a three-day visit to Somalia.
At the Angolan Defense Security Council, amboin made a report on the visit to Somalia. After a series of discussions, the Angolan Defense Security Council finally passed the arms purchase plan: it is expected to allocate $80 million to purchase 60 Lion King 2 infantry fighting vehicles and some spare parts.
This military plan was quickly approved by the Angolan National Assembly, and Angolan President Dos Santos authorized Deputy Chief of Staff Officer Chang An Boin to be fully responsible for the arms procurement plan.
After several days of deliberation, the Angolan military and the Somali military reached an agreement on the arms procurement case and jointly held a press conference at the Somali Ministry of Defense.
At the press conference, when the arms procurement plan was announced, it ushered in the incredible exclamation of media reporters. Although some well-informed media knew that the Angolan military had made a visit to the Somali military, they did not know that the content of the visit was related to arms procurement. If it hadn't been made public by both sides now, I'm afraid the outside world would still be in the dark.
Who can believe that Somalia, which has just recovered to stability for less than a year, can sell arms to other countries today? And it is not an ordinary arms sales, but a sales case worth 80 million US dollars.
For a while, the Somali Star Industry Group has once again become a hot topic. The worldwide response to this arms sales case is not only limited to the two countries of Soan, but also to foreign countries.
With the gradual monopoly of the high-end market of international arms trade by the United States and Russia, the new powers in the world will focus on third world countries. And Africa is an almost undeveloped virgin land.
Africa is very poor and chaotic, which is a common understanding, but that's why there is a huge market for low-end arms here. Moreover, as international mineral resources and energy are becoming more and more tight and prices are gradually rising, the finances of many African countries have also eased. In this unstable continent in most regions, the supremacy of force is even more vividly revealed.
It is extremely necessary to maintain a certain armed force in order not to be invaded by neighboring countries. Moreover, in Africa, various military coups and [***] armed forces also require an army with the right combat effectiveness to maintain the stability of the country. When arms dealers from other countries were selling arms in Africa, another arms dealers appeared in Africa, which was not a good thing for them.
After an agreement was reached on arms procurement, Soan's political axe contact began to become frequent. In order to deepen bilateral relations, Somali President Yusuf announced that he would provide some meat products to Angola at half the market price. Because Angola has had an outbreak of cholera in China since the first half of this year, the price of food, especially meat products, has soared in this country where food is not self-sufficient, and Somalia is also short of food. However, after obtaining the grain reserves of local forces, there is no need to worry about food shortage for the time being. Moreover, Somalia is also a developed animal husbandry country, exporting livestock products accounting for 40% of the total export value every year.
A series of actions in Somalia and Angola have naturally left some countries in Africa and the world in a hurry. Several neighboring countries are naturally uneasy about Angola's procurement of a batch of armored weapons. The neighboring countries of Somalia, especially Kenya, which had an armed conflict with the Paramin Army, immediately strengthened their defenses on the Soken border.
In this arms sale, the Huaxia political axe, which was originally a little dissatisfied, stalled because Mudege's large oil field blocked its mouth and issued a statement of concern. They are now mainly focusing on the exploitation of Mudege large oil fields, and of course, the armed escort mission of the Gulf of Aden, which is also the main focus of these world powers. Soan's arms trade is naturally 'not very important' in the face of this matter.
In the Badada Town Industrial Park of Somalia Star Industrial Group, Li Mo, as the owner, will naturally pay attention to the group's first national order. They have inspected the industrial park many times and urged experts and others to ensure that this batch of chariots can be successfully delivered to the Angolan military.
"Oh, I'm exhausted!" In Li Yanran's office, Li Mo sat on the sofa without a figurative, raised his legs to the coffee table and complained.
In the past few days, because of the arms sales contract with the Angolan military, some real figures in Somalia have come to the relationship with Li Mola; these people seem to have forgotten that they are a Chinese-Somali, but regard Li Mo as a real Somali. Since the organization was made public, Li Mo has prepared for this, but when receiving several groups of guests every day, Li Mo feels tired, which is much more tired than hiding behind the scenes before.
Today, when he saw an opportunity, Li Mo slipped into Li Yanran's office; on the one hand, it was to avoid those who visited the meeting and the media reporters, and on the other hand, he knew that Li Yanran had been neglected during this period and deliberately came to 'concern'.
"Well, aren't you quite happy when I see you tease little Li Chen?" Li Yanran soaked Li Mo in a glass of water and said with jealousy. Every time she saw Liu Qingyue hugging Xiao Li Chen with a loving face, Li Yanran was jealous and hated that her stomach had not reacted yet.
Li Mo smiled and knew Li Yanran's thoughts. During this period, because of work and Xiao Li Chen, he sniffed Li Yanran. Thinking that Li Yanran's family went to Africa thousands of miles away for themselves, I felt very guilty.
"Wife, are you angry?" Li Mo put down the teacup and hugged Li Yanran in his arms and asked in a low voice.
Li Yanran stretched out his hand to push Li Mo away, but he didn't do so. Instead, he gently beat Li Mo on the chest and muttered, "Husband, I miss the time when you were in high school in Jingcheng now. At that time, although you were just a student and didn't have your current status, you could be with me every day, so that I feel the warmth of home..."
With Li Yanran's recount, Li Mo only felt that his heart was pricked by a needle, which was very painful. A long time ago, he knew that Li Yanran was a very traditional woman, and her husband and children were what she really expected in her heart. But because of Li Mo's wishes and ideals, Li Yanran had to bury the comfort in her heart and strived to change into a strong woman in order to help Li Mo. Then Li Mo will be happy, and Li Mo will be happy, and she will be happy. However, this kind of forced suppression of surname can't give her real happiness. Over time, the suppressed surname is easy to breed resentment. When resentment accumulates to a certain extent, it will be triggered by foreign objects.
Liu Qingyue gave birth to a child for Li Mo before her, which was naturally the trigger of resentment. However, for the sake of the relationship between Li Mo or several people, Li Yanran has been trying to control her emotions. Because she thinks Li Mo is happy. But today, Li Mo also showed a tired side in front of her, which finally made her unable to control her emotions and burst out.
Everything she has done before is for Li Mo to be happy. But now Li Mo is tired, which means that everything she has done before seems to be ineffective. How can she hypnotize herself and continue to immerse herself in the peaceful family she builds?
"Honey, let's get married!" Li Mo patted Li Yanran on the back and suddenly said.
The delicate body lying in Li Mo's arms suddenly trembled, and then a pretty face with tears in disbelief raised and asked, "What did you say?"
Li Mo lovingly brushed away the tears on Li Yanran's pretty face and kissed her little mouth, "I said let's get married?" Honey, will you marry me?"
Li Yanran doesn't have time to care about Li Mo's nondescript words in her mind. Now her mind is full of 'Marry!' Three words.
Thinking about it, the two have known each other for five years. Now Li Yanran is 26 years old. She finally waited for Li Mo's proposal and was immediately stunned.
In my dream, I dreamed of Li Mo's proposal countless times, but I never thought that it would be on such a occasion.
"Yes... I do..." Li Yanran suddenly hugged Li Mo's neck and kissed him on the face repeatedly, as if this way to express her happiness.
It was not until Li Mo cried and pointed to the saliva on her face that Li Yanran found her gaffe. She gave Li Mo a fierce look and said coquettishly, "You don't know how to be proud in your heart!"
Sure enough, as soon as she finished her words, Li Mo smiled proudly and said, "That's, my wife, your love for me, I really felt it just now!" After saying that, he also pointed to the remaining saliva on his face.
"Go to hell!" Li Yanran blushed, grabbed a pillow next to her and hit Li Mo fiercely. The two then made a mess on the sofa. I can no longer see the stamped feet. Somalia is about to shake three times, just like a young couple flirting.
On the second day, when Li Mo revealed the news that he was going to get married, the senior management of the Star Organization called one after another to congratulate him. Except for Luo Xiang, who was on a mission, who could not be contacted for a while, other senior executives, including elephants in Southeast Asia, knew the news that the boss was getting married.
For the marriage of Li Mo and Li Yanran, the happiest is naturally Li Zhendong and his wife who opened a Chinese school in the capital Mogadishu. After Liu Qingyue gave birth to a child, the two elders complained about Li Mo. Now that they learned that Li Mo and his daughter were going to get married, their complaints finally dissipated. On the same day, he put aside the Chinese school and went to Li Haojun and his wife to discuss their marriage.
The news was quickly spread through some channels, and almost all senior executives in Somalia learned that Chairman Li Moli was about to get married. President Yusuf even conveyed his blessing through Chief of Staff Hussein. This is mainly because of the arms trade between Star Industries Group and the Angolan military, which raised his face fiercely and straightened his waist when he went to the AU Political Axe Summit.
However, Li Mo did not plan to hold a big special banquet, but planned to hold a small wedding banquet and invite some close people to attend. After all, his 'special status' in Somalia determines the luxury he can't do. Fortunately, Li Yanran doesn't care about this. Li Zhendong and his wife also know that this place is not comparable to China. Li Mo is always an outsider. It's not good to be too high-profile, so they don't complain about Li Mo on this point.
