将这些鸦片膏罐在展厅里呈现，展完这些鸦片膏罐将还给澳门友人。
至今在澳门沿海地区或者沙滩上可以捡到这些鸦片膏罐。鸦片战争时期澳门为远东最大的鸦片中转站，友人告诉我这些都是清代末年南海上的鸦片运输船的遗留物，沉在海底后，被百年潮汐、海浪冲回海岸。
与友人签订一则《澳门条约》，约定在展览期间向友人借所有他收藏的鸦片膏罐，并在展厅里将这些鸦片膏罐摆放成1842年（南京条约签订时间）清国地图的輪廓，展览结束后这些鸦片膏罐将如数返还。

These opium ointment jars are displayed in the exhibition room. Afterwards, they will be returned to the Macao friend.
1. Today opium ointment jars like these still can be found in coastal areas or on beaches of Macao. During the Opium War, Macao was the largest opium trading port in the Far East. The friend told me that these were remnants of opium ships on the South China Sea in the late Qing dynasty. The jars had sunk to the bottom of the sea, and were brought back to the shore by waves after more than a century.
2. A "Treaty of Macau" was signed with a local friend, in which agreed to place the opium jars as the outline of Qing Dynasty's map in 1842 (when "Treaty of Nanking" was signed) in the exhibiting area. All of them will be returned upon completion of the exhibition.
