Primary Evidence
"The unique background allowed prominent merchants who built fortunes on opium, like Jardine, Matheson & Company’s Matheson and Jardine, Mody and Company’s Mody, Belilios and Company’s Belilios, and the Sassoon families, as well as the Ho family, to become influential figures of the era. Smoking opium was considered commonplace, nothing unusual."
