A strong stench filled our nasal cavaties. It was that of boiled worms and overworked fingers. It was that of death and labor. It was a sight to behold.

Walking up the alley past some men at an unloading dock, the stench grew stronger. From out of the trees rose a building that seemed to be the source of our hands covering our noses.

We walked in the building, and right away there were women seated at a small, waist high conveyor belt. They were seated on some rickety old chairs sifting through the cocoons of their matured silk worms. It was beyond me how they could tell the difference between the mature ones and the worms not quite ready yet. If a worm was not mature enough to be boiled, they'd throw it back and wait a week for it to spin a complete web around itself. Without enough padding to their cocoon, it would of course be pointless to boil it to death and only be put to half-use.

T
he women smiled at us as we passed through, but the next room was different. To the left of the door, there was a large machine emitting steam and spewing forth ravenous smells. The dark clang of the metal and the meditative whirr of the wooden spools spinning to the right sent our acclimated (for almost two weeks thus far) senses in to an uproar. It was the strangest thing, at least for myself, to have encountered in a long time. That is, of course, after being acquainted with many strange things at the beginning of the trip and getting used to it early on.

The large machine to the left was a machine in which they boiled the live worms. It stunk poorly and was so loud it felt silent. We made our way from the "death-machine" to the rows of women with their hands in hot water pulling strings from each cocoon and attaching them to spools overhead. It was an experience to turn any amateur photographer into a syndicated National Geographic type.

A
fter the large room with the "death-to-all-worms-who-pass-this-way-trap" there was a small room with just a bunch of finished spools lying against the wall.

Next came a woman who took unspun cocoons, removed the worm (with her bare hands), and stretched it over a wooden frame that was based in a cold water basin. Then, once she had enough, she put a few together and stretched it over a larger frame. Women and men in the same room took the dried pallets of silk (what the woman in cold water had been doing) and stretched them over a square table. We got an oppurtunity to help them out by being on an honorary stretching team. They did something like 150 layers of silk stretching, and then topped it off by covering it in a silk jacket. Yang bought the finished product from them, the one whose work involved our hands.

Our visit in the factory was an influential one, so our visit in the silk shop was a walk in the park...even though it still smelled a bit. They put on a fashion show for us, one that was put together very well, I thought, and then we got a chance to explore the store and buy our own goods.

China being the fastest growing B2B market on earth is inherently different from her neighbor Japan which she wants to emulate. Any experienced multinational purchasing manager or a global sourcing agent would vouch to say that whereas Japan's B2B market is characterized by stress on automobile and electronics, China's B2B market is, however fragmented without one dominant player characterized by toys, garments, electronics, telecom etc.

China is a rapidly rising global economic power. China domestic market rapidly rising , Overall growth has averaged a robust 7% to 8% for more than a decade, with some markets expanding much more rapidly:

Calligraphy has traditionally been regarded as China's highest form of visual art - to the point that a person's character was judged by the elegance of their handwriting! Decorative calligraphy is found all over China, in temples and adorning the walls of caves and the sides of mountains and monuments. The basic tools of calligraphy - brush and ink - are also the tools of Chinese painting, with linework and tone the all-important components.
