mike:

My knowledge about that period is shallow. I think it was in a civil war in most part of China. The ruling party kept printing paper money. At the end it was a total chaos. I saw a few pictures about what happened in Shanghai (the industry and financial center in China), and you can't believe how much paper money people had to carry to buy a bag of rice. People were using bicycles and bags to carry money. The food price was going up by minutes. Eventually more and more people (middle class) were turning against the government, which was losing the battle against Communist Party.

Of course gold and silver were good. Got gold?
