In 1839 the Imperial Commissioner for Canton wanted to cut off all Opium trade with the British, his name was Lin Tse-hsu. Because the British used the money from the Opium to buy things such as tea and porcelain, which were all in great demand in Britain, the British were not happy. Despite China's warnings Britain sold the Opium illegally for a higher price. Meanwhile the British had began their renaissance because they were white they found some mexicans to help them build weirdass english houses and make tea cabinets China was distraught and beheaded all Britons in China, those who surrendered were forced to work farms in China, as you can imagine the British were not happy about this either. However the Chinese sent a small army of junks to Britain but the British already sent a small but powerful army of modern naval fleets.

How do you write a paragraph about why British insisted on farmers growing opium in India?
The British insisted on farmers growing opium in India because of a trade deal with China. Tea became extremely popular in England, and by 1830, over 30 million pounds of tea was being imported from China. The rulers of China, the Manchus were unfriendly towards foreign merchants and their goods. Hence, there was nothing that England could offer to the Chinese in exchange for tea, except money. Doing so was a loss to the British treasury. Opium was used in Chinese medicine, but was banned for use due to its addictive qualities. The British started an illegal opium trade, and by 1839, there were an estimated 12 million opium smokers in China. All the supplied opium came from India and it formed an easy, cheap way to pay for the tea imported from China
When did china prohibited opium trade?
Opium has been available for 5,000 years. Chinese indigenous opium was inferior to the opium grown by the British on Indian plantations, so opium users favored the imported product. The British essentially forced imported opium on the Chinese, and large numbers of people became addicted. The British used profits to fund its domination of India. The Chinese government tried to control drug abuse in the 19th century, but found it was impossible without British support. The British were very much against the Chinese growing their own opium. There is no reason to believe that poppies are not native to parts of China. See "Opium," by Martin Booth.
