DressMonkey kicking down doors and burning down buildings in the search for Shaoxing's fabric frauds

Coley and I aren't hurting after bottles of Shaoxing Rice Whine were smashed over our heads the other day. In fact, we're feeling surprisingly good from it. We're used to dealing with shady Chinese vendors who seem like their entire purpose in life is to rip off unsuspecting foreigners. I've read more stories about foreign investments lost in China due to false promises than I care to bring up. In fact, this book in some way inspired me even more to start a company with Chinese risks tied into it. Why don't I sound too worried right now? First of all, because thanks to Coley's quick thinking, we were never chumped in the first place. And second of all, because other parts of our Monkey are moving along quite nicely: we've designed some sleek packaging for our product, ironed out our supply chain with our trade agent, and ready to set up our payment gateway so we can start processing orders online.
