There was also tea at stake.
China enjoyed a trade surplus with Europe, trading porcelain, silk, and tea in exchange for silver. Trade between China and Britain was heavily imbalanced in China’s favor. As Britain’s demands for tea, silk, and porcelain exceeded Chinese demands for British goods, British merchants started exporting opium in India. This shift reversed the balance of trade.

Just finished Assassin’s Creed Directors Cut after getting it free or cheap from somewhere. Was nice to revisit something I’d originally played (and abandoned) many years ago.
I’ve since played a few of the others and was nice to contrast both the pureness of the original and the enhancements of the later.

No worries! Always good to see what alternatives are available. I bought moon+ reader a while back so happy to support good products.

Wow, shelfmark looks really cool. I like the customisation moon+ reader offers for the UI, but find the progress sharing a little lacking, so will take a look at readers, thanks.

Download books from libgen, Anna’s archive, torrents. Move (sftp) to a watched folder on my pi4 that’s running calibre and then download from server using moon reader
