  After staying in Cairo, the capital city of Egypt for four days, on the fifth day, the convoy led by James Steward came to Alexandria, another major city in Egypt. Alexandria is a world-famous port, and it has been famous in the world as early as 3,000 years ago. The lighthouse of Alexandria is also the tallest, largest and earliest lighthouse in the world.

   is very ornamental. Another famous attraction in Alexandria is the Library of Alexandria, which is the earliest encyclopedic library in the world. Although it was damaged by the war, it still retains many intact buildings and many historical documents. But just looking at these historical documents, you can't hold them in your hands, but they are sealed in glass boxes, and some hieroglyphs are written on them, so you can't read them at all.

  In addition to hieroglyphics, the most are ancient Roman writings, and the most special thing is that the material for making these scrolls is not cloth. It is not a paper made of papyrus, which is a characteristic of Egypt. It is like paper that is connected bit by bit horizontally and vertically. In some places, horizontal fibers and vertical fibers can be seen superimposed.

   One by one is a bit like Chinese bamboo slices. They are all products of the same era. In addition, Alexandria is also a famous seaport. Seafood in the seaport and seaport will definitely be dazzling. In particular, there is a seafood bazaar that is particularly famous in Alexandria.

  Beginning in the early hours of every morning, the Grand Bazaar of these seafood products is very lively, and wholesalers from all over Egypt will come here for wholesale. All kinds of fresh seafood caught from the Mediterranean Sea or from the Atlantic Ocean, because Yang Yong brought people late, when they came to this very famous seafood bazaar in Africa, they were already gone.

   There are only scattered stalls selling some common seafood varieties, but they are very fresh, but they are all ordinary products. If you want to buy the best seafood, come back tomorrow, but how can Yang Yong have that time? I just took my family to have a rough look at the state of this most famous seafood bazaar in Africa. How big is it? After selling some things, I took my family to one of the most famous seafood restaurants in Alexandria.

  I ordered a large table of seafood delicacies with Egyptian specialties, and I was very happy to eat. Yang Yong also asked James butler to give everyone a glass of two-liang century-old Moutai wine. Of course, seafood should be paired with white wine. The best one is Maotai from Huaxia. Of course, it is also good to pair it with some vodka and tequila.

   In the afternoon, Yang Yong deliberately took two hours to come to Alexandria with his two children. Yang Yong doesn't care how many fish he can catch when he uses a sea fishing rod for fishing. Yang Yong only cares about parent-child activities such as cultivating children's patience. If you want to fish for seafood with a fishing rod, you have to starve to death.

   That fish was not caught, but a lot of those small, finger-thick and various sea fish were caught. In the end, these little trash fish made these two unfortunate children feed the seagulls, and these seagulls copied them today. You can eat a sumptuous meal. At dusk, the Yang family finished dinner early and prepared to participate in the most famous night market activities in Alexandria.

  The night market is quite famous in the local area. There are many local specialties sold in the night market, as well as a variety of goods. Everyone can eat and play, and there are even many singing and dancing performances, but the Yang family did not book a hotel in the pressure mountain. So I had to return to Cairo overnight to live, and then I checked out the next day and took the whole family to the car and walked east to Suez, another famous city.

  Because the Suez Canal is one of the few super-grand canals in the world, the construction time is absolutely shocking because the canal was dug thousands of years ago. Especially during the Egyptian War of Independence, many people died for this canal, and the control of the canal was grabbed from the British.

   But the good times didn’t last long. A war broke out between Egypt and Israel, especially the Sinai Peninsula, which was robbed by Israel. Then it was robbed back by means of war. It can be said to be ill-fated. After all, it is the main transportation route from Europe to the Indian Ocean and to Asia, which belongs to the throat.

   Whoever controls the Suez Canal earns quite a lot of money every year, not to mention closing the Suez Canal. It will make all countries feel uncomfortable, and it is also an important negotiating weight. If you don’t go through the Suez Canal, you can only detour to the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa, which is not a length that ordinary shipping companies can afford. The cost has more than doubled, so the Suez Canal is the lifeblood of Egypt and a boutique city for tourism.

  The city of Suez is located on the top of the Suez Canal, close to the seaside of the Red Sea, and the scenery of the East China Sea is particularly beautiful. And it is also rich in pearls, there is no way, who makes the Middle East a paradise for sand, the seaside is all sand, and there is a lot of sand. It brought a lot of nutrients to the Red Sea or the Persian Gulf for the healthy growth of marine life, but it caused a lot of trouble for some shellfish.

   Everyone knows how pearls are formed? Because the sand gets into the bodies of these pearly mussels. Rubbing its body, it feels very itchy, so the shellfish will produce a substance that wraps the sand. Pearls are slowly formed in circles and circles over the years. If you cut the pearls transversely, you can see that there are circles of material like annual rings on the cutting surface, which is also an important means to identify true and false pearls.

  The Red Sea in Egypt is also the main producing area for pearls. The quality of pearls is quite domineering. Of course, the price of good pearls will definitely be very expensive. In particular, some colored pearls make those women want to stop. Of course, these high-end jewelry are out of reach for others.

   For the Yang family, it is only a drop in the bucket, and the woman in the family is in one of the best jewelry stores in Suez. After choosing several sets of pearl jewelry, the men of the Yang family came to an unremarkable store without a signboard in the old town of Suez to select products.

The products in    are only the same, that is, the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf, a kind of seafood rich in shark fins. In the past, the Arabs were not too cold about sharks and would not eat any part of the shark's meat or body, but since the rise of the Asian economy, rich people abound. Of course, I yearn for the good things that I couldn't eat before. Shark fin is a very popular product, and it is called the holy product of soup together with bird's nest.

  The Persian Gulf and the Red Sea are in the tropics, and no one catches sharks, so this area is flooded with sharks. I don't know when and who started this industry, right? In the Persian Gulf, sharks are caught from the sea, shark fins are made into dried products, and then shipped to Asia to make a lot of money.

   This is an incredible beginning. Sharks in the entire Red Sea area of ​​the Persian Gulf can be considered **** mildew. These poor fishermen have stopped fishing. Rather than risking their lives to collect pearls, they choose to catch sharks, cut their fins and make them dry, and then ship them to Asia for large sums of cash.
