Opium Takes China

     As most of you know opium has become a favorite recreational activity for Chinese citizens. This is about to change. China's government has decided to try and stop Opium trading because of large costs. Our government is closing trading ports in hope of stopping all imports of opium. England although is not as eager to stop trade. They have already started importing it illegally shipping it into Hong-Kong. China doesn’t know what to do. It would be too time consuming to search every ship, but it costs too much to allow importation of opium. China is currently trying to make a deal with England but nothing his come out of their dispute. What is next for China?
