Answer:

The correct answer is A) Portuguese goods were less valuable than Chinese goods

Explanation:

At the time, the Chinese civilization was one of the most advanced in the world. The products they made including silk, ornaments, porcelain etc had a lot of value in countries like Portugal who had a growing income.

However, Portuguese products were not of very high quality. The Portuguese developed textiles, wooden products and even imported new agriculture products from South America. However, these products were not considered valuable in China.

Hence, Ming China wanted the Portuguese to pay in more valuable for Gold and Silver.

Answer:

Buddhism does not. ... Hindus believe in the caste system, Buddhists do not because for them every one and everything is equal parts of a whole. Buddhism encourages its people to avoid self-indulgence but also self-denial. Buddha's most important teachings, known as The Four Noble Truths, are essential to understanding religion. Buddhists embrace the concepts of karma (the law of cause and effect) and reincarnation (the continuous cycle of rebirth)
