It is my first time coming to China. I want to buy something unique of China to my friends as gifts.
We have a great variety of Chinese antiques and porcelain. Do you like them?
Yes, I love them, but they are fragile. It is not convenient to take them.
You are right. How about paintings and embroidered handkerchiefs?
Sounds good. May I have a look?
Of course. These paintings have many designs, such as animals, flowers, landscape, aquatics and so on.
They are beautiful, but I can't understand the connotation in them. Let me see the handkerchiefs.
All right. Chinese embroidery is one traditional art with elaborate design and high quality.
Oh, I like the bamboo design. What is this?
This is a series of animals, called Chinese zodiac.
Good. So I will take three series and five bamboo ones.
OK, I will wrap them for you.
