Section 154 Planting Chrysanthemums

This city is not only considered one of the fastest changing cities in the world, but also has become the largest city and economic center in South Africa. The Johannesburg Stock Exchange, located in a bustling area, is one of the top ten financial markets in the world. The white residential areas in the north are numerous and the entertainment venues are colorful.

The noisy and bustle are completely the same as those of big cities in Europe and the United States, but the city is also full of worrying public security issues. The influx of a large number of migrant workers has caused a high proportion of unemployment rates. Most of the unemployed army are blacks with lack of skills and low education. The deterioration of public security has made robbery incidents common.

There is also an atmosphere of racial conflict. However, in Frank's view, most cases are inseparable from the victims' excessive show-offs or the revenge of enemies.

There is also a kind of tragic situation where some people who are ignorant of the world accidentally enter the black area. This kind of money-giving thing cannot be blamed for the ruthlessness of the black brothers. As they chatted, Yun Luo couldn't help but see the city on the other side of the earth.

Sandton is a region with few Joburg digits and better security. The two large shopping sites of sandton city shoppingmall and nelsonmandelasquare are closely adjacent.

In such a big shopping mall, it actually rained heavily outside and light inside. Frank said embarrassedly: "It makes the guests laugh."

When you come here, please stand on the circle with the lights on in the middle and shout—— As for why you do this? You will know if you do it yourself! The parking lots in big cities are basically self-service.

If you are coming with friends, these two shopping malls should be the paradise for Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo, but Nalan Shiqi has no interest in shopping malls at all. It was raining heavily outside. After taking a quick look, Frank asked Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo if they were willing to touch Nte.

Although I have no interest in california, wandering in a casino can slightly improve Nalan Shiqi's spirit than walking in a mall.

When Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo arrived at the largest casino in South Africa, the sky cleared up, and the light from the clouds scattered fiercely on the European castle building, and their eyes flashed instantly. This castle-style palace has tower structures such as towering bell towers and gate towers, curved doors and windows, and ridged roofs are covered with ochre red terracotta tiles.

The painted walls are made of stone and brick. The walls facing the inner square are cleverly "dealed", giving this building at the end of the last century a vicissitudes of life.

The area of ​​the Tunte is equivalent to that of the smallest country in the world - the Vatican; the style of the internal commercial area is similar to that of the masterspalace, and is mostly restaurants, but the overall specifications are much larger and the layout is more refined.

This circle took a little time, and after coming out, I couldn't help but look back at the castle-style exterior wall.

After digesting some food from my stomach, I returned to Mandela Square because dinner was booked at the "thebutchershop&g大" on the side of the square.

On the way back from Sun City yesterday, frank asked Yunluo: "Do you know if someone invites you to steak tomorrow?" Yunluo looked confused. Today, he received a call from a friend on the way back from Bituo and said sorry to Yunluo. Because he had to accompany the guests to Sun City temporarily, he could not go to the appointment at night.

Although Yunluo knew that there was a friend who was doing business here, in order not to disturb others, he planned to leave in a low-key manner. Unexpectedly, the circle of people in Sihai City in South Africa was not big. My friend arranged to invite Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi tonight tonight. If it weren't for his temporary incident, he called Yunluo. I guess Yunluo would have been shocked before eating the steak!

Although my friend was unable to attend, Yunluo still tried this restaurant that was recommended by many people. "Butcher" was rated as a 3* restaurant by Rossouwsrestaurant (South African Diet Selection) for three consecutive years, and is also one of the top ten restaurants in South Africa.

The restaurant is not luxurious, but it feels very warm. There is a history of the restaurant's development and awards on the aisle leading to the bathroom. Because I was not hungry, Yun Luo ordered a cup of Irish coffee first. It is not easy to make this cup of fine wine + coffee, although Yun Luo could not taste the "chills of angels".

But I still greed for the special mellow fragrance in the cup. After a short break, it gradually darkened and I looked at the menu. I ordered a naked eye, a oxtail, and two glasses of red wine. The price of the whole bottle is between 2 and 3 cups. Frank said that he could not get alcohol during working hours, and Yunluo, with the name of steak, could finally have a drink before leaving.

Because the lunch has not been completely digested, the foreigners' dishes are large, so this is enough for Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo to eat. The snacks before the meal - the homemade sausage and bread in the restaurant are also very attractive, and the butter is very popular with Nalan Shiqi. This meal is naturally very satisfying. When I got up and left, the restaurant was filled.

As Frank said, it is best to book the seats here 2 or 3 days in advance. If you encounter special festivals such as Valentine's Day, booking 1 or 2 months in advance is a must.

No matter how much food is in my stomach, I can't feel satisfied. This night was the last night in South Africa. I closed my eyes and sighed slightly. Is the successive unhappiness before departure the price of the entire trip that I received constant surprises?

No slippers are available in African hotels. For so many days, I saw disposable slippers in a hotel in Nairobi, the capital of Kenya.

Ethiopia produces coffee, almost all people's coffee, just like Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo's country and the whole people drink tea. Yunluo tasted it, Ethiopia's coffee is a bit sour, but she likes it very much after adding milk.

There is a kind of macchiato that I like to drink, and it tastes a bit like a cappuccino. The difference is that the milk foam on the cappuccino is made of cocoa powder, while the milk foam of macchiato is made of coffee powder.

I drank halfway and remembered to take a photo of it, haha.

The staple food of Ethiopia is a soft noodles called "Ingira". It tastes so sour. Yunluo is not used to it. After eating it, he feels that his stomach acid is overflowing!

The locals' three meals a day are all "Enghira". They are eaten with their hands. Rich people can make some beef sauce or something, while poor people can dip the sauce and eat it directly.

Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo ate in the ethnic restaurant, which was the most luxurious "Enghira". They ate "Enghira" and watched the ethnic dance performance. After that, they had to drink another cup of coffee. Of course, they had to go through the security check when entering the door.

Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo didn't stay in Addis Ababa, the capital, because there were no attractions and Ethiopia was not a tourist country. It is the political center of Africa, and the African Union Conference is held here every time! So he is also one of the largest transit stations in Africa. When you go to other African countries, many of them transfer from here.

Ethiopia is the least wealthy and most populous country among the three countries that Yunluo went to this time. I don’t know if it was because he had not been colonized. Although being colonized is not a glorious thing, looking around, the development of the colonized countries is always slightly faster than that of the uncolonized countries.

Even though Addis Ababa is the capital of Ethiopia, except for the five-star hotels, they are mostly low-rise iron houses, and the materials are a bit like the iron fences during the construction of the national roads of Nalan Seqi and Yunluo.

In Addis Ababa, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo visited a university wildlife museum, full of animal specimens and introductions. The tour here was mainly for Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo to go to Kenya to see animals.

I also went to the University of Addis Ababa. Yunluo had a very good impression of this university. It was a school with a very historical charm. There was also a blind college in it. It is said that all the capable blind people in Africa came here to receive teaching.

There are some cars running on Ethiopia, and some are very old, but like antique cars, there are many worn-out antique cars like beetles all over the street. Haha. Yunluo likes it very much. There are basically no traffic lights on the road, so the police rely on manual command.

Moreover, the windows of cars here are not allowed to be covered with dark-colored films. If you catch them, you will be fined and ordered to tear them off. You will only post them unless you have a hospital certificate that proves that you have diseases that cannot be exposed to the sun. This decree is not only in Ethiopia, but also in Kenya.

Beetles, they are still antiques. I like Addis Ababa Street.

The people who received Nalan Seqi and Yunluo were working on the project in an extinct crater lake resort in the suburbs of Addis Ababa. Xiao Heiboss owed him a lot of project payments, so he would take him there to eat and drink for free whenever he had friends. Haha. The place was called wz. The scenery was quite beautiful.

The duty-free shop in Addis Ababa Capital Airport is all like a roadside grocery store. Alas! There is nothing good to buy.

Like a store in the small commodity market in Nalan Seqi and Yunluo, an Addis Ababa Airport duty-free shop. Due to price issues, usually you have to use stacks of Ethiopian papers with money when you go out.

When buying things, you should go to the black market. Why is it called a black market? Because it can be exchanged for US dollars there. Ethiopia's foreign exchange control is very strict, so many people go here to change it.

The black market mainly includes various ornaments carved by black wood, such as opa (a kind of gem), beeswax and other things, and of course there are ivory, but this cannot be taken out of the country or in the country. For the sake of environmental protection, I will definitely not buy it. Some shops have to buy it well and have to bargain. Many shop owners will order simple Chinese, haha, the purchasing power of Chinese people

In general, the Ethiopian people are very friendly to the Chinese people, and they are also more friendly than the people of Kenya and Zimbabwe.

Moreover, Ethiopian Prime Minister Meles is very pro-China, whether it is political or economic policy. However, when Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were in Kenya, they learned that Meles had passed away. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better and faster!
