4:05 No, It's half Yuan/h, which is about 7 cents.
16:05 No, she doesn't have. She doesn't pay any fees or taxes either. The Chinese government takes care of poor people, so you do not see many homeless people in China. It's called socialism.
1kilo=2 Jin; 1 jin =500g, he said 1.1 jin, which is 550 grams.
🍑 😂Hey! Please get used to the common unit of weight in China-斤(jin) which is 500gram, half a kilogram. Groceries are NOT sold by kilogram in China. The sign says that and he tried his best to tell you it’s 28 yuan for half a kilo. The sign next to it also says no self picking, these peaches are a special varietal grown and fast transported by air freight(expensive) in Beijing for its maximum freshness, it’s popular for its juicy, sweet and delicious flesh, they ARE expensive, he didn’t try to scam you on such a small amount, rare to see that in China, their business doesn’t rely on foreigners, there isn’t overwhelmingly desperate sales in China if you compare to those South Eastern tourism countries(Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia), he wouldn’t even care whether you buy any or not, due to the hassle of communication😂. Also, he told you please do not touch because he was worried you couldn’t read the sign and would finger press the peach to see if they’re soft and ripe enough. It’s a small vender he would probably lose money if there were a few peaches damaged and couldn’t sell. Last, please don’t expect EVERYTHING in China is cheap. These are still cheaper than the regular supermarket peaches in Australia! I hope you enjoyed the 🍑😂
It wasn't a scam because the price was labeled 28 yuan half kilo, and above the price, it said that the peaches are grew in Beijing and shipped by air transport to Guangzhou - maybe that is the reason why so expensive. There was also a sign next to the price said "Please do not touch, thank you for your cooperation".
Guangzhou have many delicious traditional foods, welcome to explore them!
By the way, near your hotel has a restaurant called Chaoji Claypot Rice (超记煲仔饭), you can have a try~
很多外国人理解不了 煲仔饭 的煲仔意思
These people are from Australia, where they are propagandised into hating China, they will always be suspicious of any money transactions.
The peaches are expensive but he didn't scam you. On the paper it was written that the peaches were transported from Beijing, two thousand kilometres away, by airplanes. And the peaches look big, evenly pink. They deserve double or triple price of the ordinary peaches from somewhere closed to Guangzhou.
真是疯批，广州从北京进桃子😅

The sign on the peaches says, "Don't touch" because buyers like to press on the peach to see whether they are soft. That hurts the peaches very much.
Expensive stuff ! Don’t touch! 😂😂
This is the old district of Guangzhou. Although it doesn't have as many skyscrapers and neon lights as the new district, it is just as quiet and tidy. The old arcade buildings under the large banyan trees, the numerous old shops with delicious food along the way, all exude a vibrant and lively atmosphere. As someone who was born and raised in the old district of downtown Guangzhou, I have been away from my hometown and living in France for over twenty years, but I still miss the feeling of my childhood. Thank you for your video, and thank you for liking my hometown, Guangzhou. I wish you a pleasant journey in China.
常回家看看，我离广州109公里的肇庆，不常去广州，但是去一次感觉就有变化，虽然国内还有不少的问题，但是在慢慢改进，中国的政策是长远的，而不会因为换个领导就改变政策，这点是好多国家不能比的，没上外网前我也天天骂国家，但现在上了外网，才真正感觉到了中国的大方向的正确。

The peaches you bought were luxury ones specifically shipped to GZ from Beijing. I noticed a sign in Chinese said “please don’t touch” cuz the peaches were soft and would be easily damaged by our hands.

I've recently found your channels and you've quickly become my favorite travel youtuber! I love you showing interactions with the locals and showing random streets it feels like I am exploring the country together with you! I'm binge watching all your old videos 😂 Keep it up and thank you for the great contents ❤❤
As to the street vendor, if it’s a small store which is stationary, then you need a license to do business. If it’s a mobile one like on a tricycle, then it does not have a license. Before pandemic the government used to ban all these unlicensed vendors from selling stuff on the street and it was nationwide. After pandemic the economy was hurt badly and lower-class people were getting through enormous economic hardship and therefore the government decided to let go the previous policy to allow unlicensed vendors do business now.

Hi Josie & Michael👋👋👋 This was so fun, I enjoyed seeing the different shops/eateries scattered about, what a nice city to be in👍👍👍 BTW, Gerbil is the lil rodent you admired…TYFS, can’t wait for more🙏♥️💫✨👼🏻✨💫♥️🙏
Hi guys , you can eat rice either with chopsticks or spoon as you see fit. I see many western tourists trying to eat fried rice using chopsticks in S'pore facing much difficulties because the rice do not stick together like Thai sticky rice or sushi rice. Fried rice are usually loose after frying so eating with spoon is more logical than chopsticks. How to hold the rice with chopsticks when the rice are loose ? For loose rice , you can shove the rice with your chopsticks onto the spoon wheather the rice is on a plate or bowl. Or you can hold the bowl up & shove the rice into your mouth with your chopsticks. It all depends how you eat. There's no strict rules that you must eat rice with chopsticks. Thanks for reading 😊 Cheers 👌

China is the most honest country you will have the honor of visiting. The Middle Kingdom doesn’t have scammers like other countries, the fruit guy did not scam you. It’s rare to be scammed, it’s a bargain culture.

He didn't scam you. The peaches are just expensive, because they were shipped all the way from Beijing.
Ahhhh okay. Thank you!!
@@josievlogsthings 😂Quite expensive peaches but not a scam.The price was written on the cardboard"28/斤” . 斤 in Chinese means 0.5 kg.Two peaches weigh just about 0.5kg. So that's correct.
@@josievlogsthingsin China normally kilogram is not that often used in day to day life. Like if you do grocery or buying from retail normally it’s priced in 500 gram which is 斤Jīn. They use kilo more often when it comes to bulk buy. So the peach is 28 per 500g. Airfreight from Beijing and yeah peaches are usually too tender and fragile as a fruit so the shop owner was afraid you might poke them with your fingers and make them rot😂😂
那是水蜜桃,是桃子的級品。
@@josievlogsthingsi don't know the price, but as a Chinese, it's really expensive, feel totally scammed, but you can just don't want it, anyway, i think most Chinese wouldn't buy 2 peaches for that price.❤
There are many kinds of peaches in China, and honey peaches are produced in Beijing. This variety is very expensive, and its skin is very thin, and it will be damaged if it is touched or pressed slightly. If it is shipped by air, it will be even more expensive.
最好吃的桃子，为了味道最佳，空运便宜，车辆运输磕碰和时间太长，会坏掉非常多
Nice video! You look more relaxed and a little bit more familiar with China now.😃
Josie! ‘Really enjoying your 2ndary channel here! You’re being unnecessarily hard on yourself with the Mandarin. Your pronunciation is great, and it’s evident that you’re trying. Ironically (and quite adorably), your “I don’t understand” is spot on! 😊 So give yourself more credit!
Alsooo, how were those pricy peaches?? I was really hoping you’d dig into them in the vlog. As others pointed out, they’re 水蜜桃 （literally juicy honey peaches) air-shipped from Beijing. Although $$$, I hope they were good!
‘Looking forward to future episodes!
You had me at " Hey bitter gourd, Karela " 😁 Have fun guys, Happy Travels 👍
when a new video from you showed up it makes me so happy to watch
Your video looks very realistic. I've been to Guangzhou, China, and the food there makes my mouth water just thinking about it. There are so many delicious things to eat in Guangzhou, and you absolutely must try the dim sum. Trust me, you won't regret it.
Guangzhou is very western friendly city, culture wise, food wise..... there's just so much to explore
That sandwich Michael got looked delicious!! Those peaches are beautiful too, I haven’t had a peach that size in probably 20 years. Any place that sells them here in my area of Alabama are barely the size of a baseball, most of them even smaller than that.
这只是普通大小的桃子，一个在250克左右，阳山的桃王，一个500克以上，要108元。
Hey guys- lovely seeing your video. I'm from Australia but have parents who came from GZ, so I've been back numerous times. I'd suggest to check out a few places if you haven't already- The GZ Canton Tower (It's the most pretty at night as it's colourful- you can go on a cruise around the Zhujiang river surrounding the tower), Guangzhou Opera House, Beijing Road, and definitely check out Yumcha and their local chicken (white cut chicken) and goose meat (which tastes like duck but better)! Btw, you guys are doing amazing considering you can't speak the language... and the humid heat...make sure you guys keep hydrated!
哈哈，我不会英语，你告诉她们可以喝下凉茶。这才是本地的特色。
highly recommend the Zhujiang River dim sum cruise at Tianzi Wharf - BEST dim sum, dim sum made by seasoned chefs from GZ famous restaurants and it is not expensive.
Welcome to Guangzhou. Have a great time here.
Thank you! Guangzhou is one of my favourite Chinese cities 😁😁 I’ll be back one day!

The label shows the Peach is 28 yuan per 500 grams, for 2 peaches of that size I believe they are more than 500 grams. In general, when you shopping in China, all the weighted goods are priced based on units of 500 grams.
Hey Michael, there is a Mixue opening in the Kotara food court. This city looks great!
You guys are in the old district, welcome to tianhe district, there are a lot delicious foods too
Welcome to GuangZhou, you will love it more ans more when you spend more time to expore the city

I'm currently living in Australia - great to watch your vlog about my hometown GZ and thank you for your video since I haven't been there since covid. There are lots of good food in GZ. You must try Cheung Fun (Steamed Rice Rolls) and BBQ Pork (叉燒) in GZ - also Yumcha is a must-do-item - Hope you enjoy everything in GZ and can't wait to see your next video!
You need to navigate directly to Xihua Road. The whole street is full of traditional Cantonese cuisine. Then, at a crossroads there is a restaurant called Yonghe Restaurant, whose Cantonese roast goose has specials every day and is very delicious.（雍和酒家）
No wonder it looks so familiar when the video starts. My home in Guangzhou is nearby. You'll find this area pretty chill because it's not the CBD. I like this area; you can find some nice old restaurants. Busy areas would be places like Tianhe, where all the commercial offices are, and Liwan, the touristy area.

in guangzhou, you can visit the large building with 70k wholesale stores. i think it is near xiaobei. some malls in tianhe , canton tower, the haizhu bridge at night, CBD
The weighting unit in China (except Xinjiang province) is Jin (斤) which is 500gram, half kilo. The peach you bought was labled "airshiping from Beijing,delicate, do not touch". The price is 28RMB/Jin. You bought 1.1Jin, the total is 28x1.1=30.8RMB.

按照清代库平两制度，1斤=16两≈596.816克，1两≈37.301克。
民国初年，北洋政府沿用清制，并未修改斤两的重量。
1930年代，为了对接国际公制度量衡，国民政府制订了市制度量衡，规定1市斤=16两=500克=0.5公斤，1两=31.25克。
这样的好处是，沿用清斤的百姓，改用市斤，只有20%的误差，而且与公制换算相对简便。
解放后，新中国在已经普及市制的地区推行公制但保留市制，在没有普及的地区（新疆等地）只推行公制。在1959年，进一步将1市斤=16两改为1市斤=10两，1两=50克（中药业暂不变），简化了换算。

Southern Chinese don't use chopsticks to pick up rice. What they do is used 4 fingers to support the bottom of the rice bowl, the thumb on the rim and bring the bowl next to the mouth and used the chopstick to push the rice into the mouth. The chopstick is used to pick up food (meat, greens, etc) from the plate and put the food into the mouth. After each morsel of food, take some rice. When eating in a group or within a family, Chinese people practice communal dining. They would be seated around a round table with a lazy Susan (turntable) placed at the center of the table. Several dishes of food would be ordered and shared. The dishes would be placed on the lazy Susan for easy accessibility.
Whereas Koreans used spoon to scoop up some rice and put it into the mouth. The rice bowl remain on the table. Koreans considered it rude to lift the rice bowl.
Cantonese like balanced meals and having greens and soup is typical in a meal seat :) you guys have to try the dimsum. TaoTaoJu is a good place to go.
The prices in fruit are usually given per "jin". Jin is an old measurement, the English translation is "cattie". Fortunately its easy to convert Jin / Cattie to metric. One jin is half a kg.
I love South China, I think people there are generally friendlier than people in Beijing and Shanghai. Apart from Guangzhou I'd also suggest you guys to visit cities and towns in Guangxi, Guizhou, and Yunnan.
Oh my God ，My home is nearby，on the opposite side of the coffee shop. WELCOME TO my hometown Guangzhou! I wish you have goodtime here，enjoy the traddtional food and culture of the GZ city that has 2000 years of history 😊
Nice walk, everything is great in Guangzhou except very hot in summer 😢
In addition to enjoying various cuisines in China, you should definitely experience visiting a hair salon. It's absolutely worth it. However, since tourists likely won't visit the same salon again, it's best not to purchase their membership cards.

Well done Dear.. Nice..
Guangzhou is a beautiful city, old downtown town and new downtown are very different, food and shops are very everywhere. Welcome Australian anytime
If you are still in Guangzhou, I recommend you trying dim sim and clay pot rice.
那两个桃子真的不贵，是从北京空运过来的。价格很合理。
At 4:55 you missed a noodle restaurant called 丽的面家， a very local and pretty one
The peaches you buy are beijing peaches, which are airlifted from beijing through the cold fresh warehouse.The price will be very expensive.
This season must be very hot in Guangzhou, hahaha.
Nanjing is another city with a similar but different vibe, more suitable for ordinary folks to live. The street vendors are strictly regulated in tier 1 cities, in smaller cities are loosely regulated.
China is such a vast country that it's understandable if they haven't had the opportunity to hear about Nanjing.
Hi Josie I hope you do have a great trip again in Guangzhou again, but in China they do use 0.5 kilogram for everything anywhere, but in Australia using 1 kilogram as normal price, that is the most difference between Australia and China, but Guangzhou is the one of the best city for street food as well.
I paid 39 Yuan for two peaches in Beijing just this weekend. They are expensive. Famous peaches grown in Pinggu district in the northeastern part of Beijing.
It is recommended that you use a translator or translation app more often, which can reduce a lot of misunderstandings.
I’m fine just exploring the world how I do and generally what it was like before devices! Human interaction for me is more important 😁
@@josievlogsthings Alright... that's pretty cool too... I hadn't thought of exploring the world in this way. I guess it might bring some serendipity as well.
I find it has brought me closer connections. I’ve never not been able to figure something out, and I use my translator app if I absolutely need it.
Good advice there! Always good practice to use translator esp when making purchases to prevent misunderstanding, regret or conflict which may even subsequently impede human connections and relationships.
I watched the other video on your other channel but forgot to answer your question about how the venders (in shops) don't usually ask to check how much you paid. So when you pay there's usually a notification (the AI voice right after you pay) telling the vendors someone just paid and how much they paid.
welcome to guangzhou🎉
maybe you can try cantonese in guangzhou
we locals speak cantonese like in hongkong
There are lots of delicious food in Guangzhou. I like Guangzhou`s food culture.
You guys should try dim sum， Cantonese Wonton，roast goose，char siu（a kind of barbecued-pork with honey）.
wait, We haven't rained for a week already, it's bright and blue sky every day! Super hot! When was this video taken
It was nice that you were walking around an older neighbourhood of Guangzhou. Felt like I was walking around with you. Which hotel were you staying at there? Most people shoot videos of GZ's ultra modern CBD where Canton Tower, while impressive doesn't capture the local vibe. Thanks.
The two peaches you bought cost 28 yuan per jin (one jin equals 500 grams). That's really expensive, but I checked, and they indeed cost that much. They're even more expensive than a meal, which was unexpected for me.
I born in guangzou 5 years old left there to HK then moved to New York never went back visit 😅I am 71 now (nice to see where I was born) THANKS 🎉❤
回来看看吧，你可能找不到家了。😄
i am from usa as well, i go to GZ for a month or 2 every year just to enjoy the food, it is so delicious, there is no comparison to food in usa, you should go to GZ and check it out.
It might be worthwhile to hire a local guide to show you around, there’s an American couple who hired an Australian expat in Beijing not long ago who took them on a local food tour, in that way you guys could save heaps of time, know where to go, and have the best authentic local food.
yes，我也看过那个视频了，那个澳大利亚的哥们真的很了解传统北京，有一些甚至我北京周边的河北人都不知道。
Peaches are expensive in Guangzhou due to they're from faraway areas and perishable.
next time when you visit Shanghai, tell me, can be your guide for one day 😊
welcome to my city guangzhou ❤
Dim sum roast goose. BBQ and won ton noodle are must have in Guangzhou.
If you come to Guangzhou again, I invite you to Foshan. I have a retro coffee shop to take you to drink coffee. Although my English is not very good, I believe that there is no problem with translation. Haha, and then there is also a city in Guangdong Province with a lot of delicious food, called Shantou. So far, I haven't seen foreign bloggers go there to visit. That city is very popular, called the city of food.
Aw thank you so much!!! Next time! Thank you! 😊🥰🙏
The two peaches you bought are obviously imported, so they are very expensive, 28 yuan per pound, one kilogram is equal to two pounds, so this price is normal, but I still suggest you go to a large supermarket to buy them at a lower price
The weight of the two peaches you bought is 550 grams. China usually prices them per 500 grams, and its marked price is 28RMB/500 grams, so it is correct that he asked you to pay 28*1.1=30.8RMB
8:29 There is a very delicious restaurant just around the corner where you are standing. I recommend you try it when you have time.煲爷Baoye
Suggest to try Dim Sim ( Sum ) , you will found these lovely tasty _ Honey pork Bun you both love ( Char Sui boa ) Plus many other different type of small serving dishes . and must try the different type of BBQ pork / duck display behind the shop .you should be able to order either with Plan Rice or just egg noddle on a plat . welcome to my home Province , Cantonese language ( like Hong Kong ) also still popular with the older locals . PS majority of Chinese in Australia / in Newcastle speak Cantonese ... especially the workers in the suburbs Chinese Restaurants ! Here is an ancient Chinese saying that, for the perfect life, you need to be born in Hangzhou (which has the best scenery), marry in Suzhou (where the most beautiful women reside), eat in Guangzhou ( Best / with different taste of Food to offer )
The tianhe underground food hall near teemall largest in the world over 800 food stall and restaurants you can spend all day there.

You are right. The street vendors in China basically do not check whether people really make the payment or not.
Since you are in Guangzhou, you must have a meal at a dim sum restaurant. I recommend you to go to "Big Pigeon Rice"（“大鸽饭”）. Believe me, it's really a delicacy on earth. Among the two best cities for food in China, one is Guangzhou and the other is Chengdu. Welcome to come to Chengdu for a try in the next stop.
At the fruit shop, there is a Chinese sign "Please don't touch the fruits". Please point to the one you want, the owner will pick for you.
You could eat rice with spoon, not necessarily with chopsticks.
Honey peaches transported by air from Beijing, cost 28 Chinese yuan per catty. In China mainland, 1 catty = 0.5 kg.
The sign behind peaches was 28 per kilo. You had about that in weight on the 2 that you had. They were some type of special peach hence the higher price and him not eating you to touch them.
You're in GuangDong region/province and most do speak Cantonese which to a foreigner's ears sounds a little bit rustic and rough like Vientmese and German spoken language.
Mandarin sounds a bit more softer in general
I am from HK and the prices in China are sometimes confusing to me too. The 1 市斤（shijin）， it refers to per 500g。 I often confuse this with 1KG. Next time when you see the prices based on weight, usually it is per 500g.

Peach is one of the most historical and beloved native fruit in China which has been breeded for thousands of years, and the most delicious varieties planted in certain areas are famous for Royal tribute in ancient China, thus there are normal quality peaches and elite peaches in the market nowadays, and the price goes from 2 usd per kilo to 12 usd somehow. Besides, it's ok to ask the owner to put them back if you feel they are too expensive, thats why he picked those peaches in a very much gentle way into the bag if you noticed.😊
