in order to raise funds to enter the market. Cheung Tak Shing has been engaged to boil Persian opium, the cost price works out at 8,70 per tel, this is cheaper than Cheung Yick at 89 per tael. This alone means a saving of several hundreds on every picul of opium boiled. In forwarding goods the rule of the guild will be observed, and delivery will be made at Chek Ham.

Note

-

the price for Sugar given above means the price per ball of opium, of which there are 40 to the chest, the quotation for Chek Ham refers to whole chests, and shows how

the leakage of Indian opium into China takes place.
