After driving for a day**, the car finally arrived in Miami on Friday morning, first drove the car to a hotel near Lijin Park, and then Jin Muchen took Fang Bo and Candace out of the hotel and went straight to the nearby food stall . www.geiliwx.com

Although the three of them took turns changing hands and drove for a day, but because the car was big enough, everyone got plenty of rest in the car, so they didn't feel too tired when they arrived in Miami.

On the contrary, it was because all the way, they were eating fast food along the road, and at this time, I wanted to find a good place to have a meal.

The hotel also has a buffet, but in Miami, this tropical paradise, how can you still have a buffet in the hotel?

You must know that this is a famous exotic city in the United States, with the largest number of immigrants from Latin America, so the streets here are also full of various exotic foods.

Near Lijin Park, there happens to be a large-scale organic agricultural product market, which is full of people every morning, and there are also various food stalls here.

Fang Bo had always lived in the northern part of the United States, and this was the first time he came to Miami, so he and Jin Muchen were stunned by the tropical style and beauty here.

Candace has been here a few times before, so she is familiar with the road, taking Fang Bo and Jin Muchen through the streets and going straight to the most famous food stalls here.

Although it is morning, there is such a food stall here that sells brazilian meat.

Jin Muchen and the others followed the local customs and ordered a little, but not too much.

After a few bites, it tasted really good, and then I continued to walk and came across a food stall selling Argentinian dumplings. One person asked for one, and the food was fragrant.

Moving on, it's Candace's favorite Chilean food stall, and recently Chilean cuisine has become very popular in the United States. But they really haven't been to any Chilean restaurants before.

This Chilean food stall was opened by a Chilean immigrant, and the taste is very authentic. Candace asked for a salmon salad, and everyone ordered a Chilean cheesecake. Only a few people filled their stomachs.

Of course, Jin Muchen ate the most by himself, Fang Bo ordered all the time, and Candace kept mumbling that he had to exercise more when he went back. The calorie intake this morning was too high.

Satisfied, the few returned to the hotel satisfied, washed briefly, and then rested for a while. At about ten o'clock, they went straight to the International Exhibition Center in Miami Beach.

When they come to the front of the exhibition center. There are already people coming and going here, and the exhibition has been on for an hour.

The full name of this exhibition is Antique Jewelry and Watch Exhibition. It has been held for many years. It is known as the largest antique jewelry exhibition in the world. It is held in Miami at the beginning of each year.

The reason why it will be held here has a lot to do with the history of Miami's development.

Many Americans are well aware of the history of Miami's development. As early as the 1970s, the city once had a very famous nickname, "Poison City".

There are also people who say it bluntly. This city was developed with the funds of drug lords. Although it sounds harsh, it is the true truth.

Since the 1920s and 1930s, the United States promulgated the prohibition of alcohol. This is the smuggling center of rum, a large number of rum brewed in Central and South America, smuggled into the United States from here.

By the end of World War II, a more lucrative business had been discovered, and that was drugs, and American veterans were the most powerful consumers of these white flours. The United States has become the world's largest consumer of white flour.

So countless Central and South Americans began to plant in the jungle and manufacture drugs, which were then smuggled to Miami and shipped from there to all over the United States, and this continued until the late 1980s.

At the height of the trend, tons of cocaine were being landed here every day and distributed across the United States.

The U.S. government was very troubled by this situation, and finally had to force the governments of Colombia and other Central and South American countries to strengthen the crackdown on those drug lords.

In the end, they cracked down hard, while opening and closing one eye to allow those drug lords to wash their hands ashore. This slowed down the crazy momentum. Coupled with the rise of Mexican drug dealers, Miami stopped.

And those drug lords who came ashore spent a lot of their money on the city, building various luxury hotels, entertainment facilities, and buying various luxury houses. Since then, Miami has become a lot of money. American holiday paradise.

Especially after the 1980s, because of the warm climate here, many wealthy American families, after retirement, would choose to move their families south to spend the rest of their lives here.

It was precisely because of the influx of drug lords and these wealthy American families at that time that Miami's later prosperity was created.

And these people have brought a lot of jewelry. The development of a family generally has three ups and downs. Some families may continue to be brilliant, while some families may go to failure because of a decision-making mistake.

Those who were defeated, in order to save the family's business, would inevitably throw out some valuable assets to save themselves, so that the antique jewelry market here flourished.

Especially after those wealthy American families moved here, it not only strengthened the purchasing power of antique jewelry, but also strengthened the circulation of these antique jewelry.

As a result, the city has become the most famous antique jewelry distribution center in the southern United States, so the antique jewelry exhibition here is known as the largest in the world, and there are capital and reasons.

Jin Muchen and the others followed the crowd and slowly approached the international convention and exhibition center. They were immediately dizzy by the jewelry on the booths.

The area of ​​this international convention and exhibition center is not small, but it is crowded with jewelers from all over the world, and every jeweler has a booth.

The stalls are filled with all kinds of antique jewelry, and here you rarely see the kind of jewelry made in modern times, most of them are antique, with a quaint atmosphere, and jewelry with historical charm.

In front of each booth, there is no shortage of people who stop and watch, and many people can even see that many people are bargaining with those booth owners.

Most of the people who come here are middle-aged people in their forties, and many of them are older people with gray hair. These people are undoubtedly the kind of pensioners with deep pockets.

As for those middle-aged people who are drooling, quite a few are antique dealers from all over the world.

A few people stopped and walked, watching while walking, but it was quite enjoyable, especially Candace, she had no resistance at all to these various gems and jewelry that would glow, maybe any woman is like this .

On the other hand, Jin Muchen and Fang Bo were more appreciative and lingered here.

Soon the two stopped in front of a booth. The items sold at this booth were not made of precious stones. Most of them were gold and silver jewelry.

They stopped because of a necklace hanging from the booth, this necklace, very interesting, this chain is very different from ordinary necklaces.

The chain body is a shell made of white gold, and the olive branches and leaves carved out of gold are connected at intervals, while the pendant below is in the shape of a leaf made of white gold, but in the middle is an oval enamel stained glass. , the painting above is of a woman in Louis XIV costume.

The color painting is vivid. Although this pendant should have a history of hundreds of years, the color painting has no meaning of fading or decay at all. You can even see the noble and elegant woman through the color painting. Look at the appearance of meditation.

Jin Muchen likes this necklace very much at first glance, not to mention that he also sees the rich and lingering jewels from this necklace?

The boss is a middle-aged man with slightly darker skin, black curly hair, blue eyes, a wide face and a high nose bridge. He looks like a typical Gallic descendant, but he doesn't know how much blood of other ethnic groups has been mixed in, he said. He also spoke with a very strong southern American accent.

After a final bargain, the necklace was sold for $5,000.

After all, it is not the jewelry of diamonds and colored gemstones that Europeans and Americans love most, so although it has some historical significance, it is impossible to sell it too expensive, not to mention its inheritance, even the stall owner can't tell.

Now the dollar is strong again, so the price of this necklace is not too expensive.

Jin Muchen guessed that if he could figure out who the enamel painting on the pendant under the chain was~www.wuxiaspot.com~ this necklace might be worth more.

Continuing to move forward, Candace couldn't move a few steps before, staring at a ring on a booth in front of him, saying that he couldn't move.

Fang Bo glanced at Jin Muchen, then smiled teasingly, and the two shook their heads and walked over to the booth.

When they got to the booth, Jin Muchen directly asked the gray-haired old lady to take the ring out of the glass case.

Candace held Jin Muchen's arm with a smile on his face and slapped his face. The old lady saw it and said with a smile: "Young man, you really have vision, my baby, just It's for a beauty like your sweetheart."

Don't think that foreigners can't say flattering words, if they start to beat horses, you can hear any disgusting and disgusting words. (To be continued.) WWW.GEILIWX.COM happy reading every day
