Europeans wanted the following goods and products from China. A summary is as follows:
A. Tea B. raw silk C. Coal D. tin E. Tungsten F. iron ore
China had these resources and cheap labor to mine or produce products that could be made or supply energy like coal, to have them produced. Europeans also sought a market for their own finished goods, and the large Chinese population was perfect for selling to these people.
Additionally, in areas of China where imperialist nations practically owned. They were able to take advantage of their low wage scales to mine ore, for example at low costs.
This European abuse, however, would seem light compsred to the days ahead when Imperial Japan actually used heavy military force to wage war in China.

What did the Chinese think the Europeans were?
The Chinese thought that the Europeans were barbarians who were worst than the Manchurians and the Mongolians who were also barbarians in the eyes of the Chinese. Europeans had to bow down to the Chinese when they wanted to trade with the Chinese. The Chinese however did not abuse their power on the Europeans because the Chinese saw themselves as the "Middle Kingdom" and believed that all other nations and people in the world will eventually adopt the Chinese ways. The Chinese don't shove their culture down other people's throats. I would say that the Chinese thinking was arrogance and vanity at its best.Source: Prelude to Opium War Qing DynastyThe Chinese thought that the Europeans were barbarians
