Q: Should eggs be weighted or counted, if you look through the eyes of the business venture?

Can Chinese egg farmer profits more than Western one, by scaling the eggs?

Weighing suits the Chinese way of doing business rather than selling by the number. Electronic scales can easily be manipulated so as to cheat people but twelve eggs is twelve eggs and easy to check.

 

Besides, counting eggs would just amount to more work on the abacus or calculator for the Chinese!

Whilst your comments could be construed, by some, as being a little on the harsh side, I would venture to suggest that that 'some' would be good folk who know SFA about Chine.

A:You can still skin into China as a non-English native teacher by holding English Teaching license in your home country.2nd: Your BA degree should be completed in a native English country. Once, you fulfilled these 'parameters', you qualify for an English teaching job in China as a non-native English sneaker with Z - Entry/Working visa with Working and Residence permit later on. See the last 'Answers Highlight' ---> there is a web link posted about 'requirements for teaching English language in China as a non-English native passport holder'. https://www.gooverseas.com/blog/guide-teaching-english-china#paragraph-item-63614-target

*English proficiency: Passport from one of seven "native speaker" countries (US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, and South Africa). If you aren’t a native speaker, you’ll need to be a certified teacher in your home country with proof of your English proficiency (e.g. IELTS or TOEFL). I'd say, Chinese will choose and look especially for a native English speaker at teaching of English Literature job openings. Posted job adverts for English Literature teaching are most likely from International Schools in China. Good luck! -- icnif77
