“。。。I also had the pleasure to visit Lao Miao (Shanghai's great gold shop), located at the Yu-Yuan temple garden in Shanghai -- and bought some small, stunningly beautiful engraved gold pieces there. This place, in the midst of the global collapse and alleged deflation, was packed with people -- all middle-class -- buying gold pieces of all sorts and paying cash -- China is in a boom -- and they have played everything right -- and are bursting with youth and confidence and, indeed, with joy... It is just stunning to see it.”
