On Oct. 23, at the seventh Jiangsu International Agricultural Exposition,
a gourd with "hundred" wishes of blessing and longevity produced by
Jiangsu Xuzhou Arts and Crafts Factory was displayed. The big gourd was
composed of two hundred Chinese characters of "Fu" (blessing) and "Shou"
(longevity). After the exhibition, the gourd was bought by a Lianyungang
citizen at the price of 3,000 yuan (US$369.9).
