As the demand for tea increased, however, and the
Industrial Revolution led them to seek more markets for
their manufactured goods, the British began to try to
expand their trade opportunities in China and establish
Western-style diplomatic relations with the Chinese. This
brought them immediately into conflict with the Chinese
government, which... would only allow liplomatic
relations within the traditional tribute system that had
evolved out of centuries of Chinese cultural leadership in
Asia. In exchange for trading privileges in the capital and
recognition of their ruler, neighboring states would send
so-called tribute missions to China. These envoys brought
gifts for the emperor and performed a series of bows
called the "kow-tow."

the passage?
O Foreigners would present their goods for inspection.
O Foreigners would bring gifts for the emperor.
