Con men from Taiwan and mainland China have purchased new dZi beads and then brought them to Nepal or Tibet, where they convince old women to gussy themselves up and pass through the Barkhor in Lhasa, which is packed with tourists. Taiwanese inevitably come over to ask them about their beads, and the women pretend to be reluctant to sell before they finally make a deal.
一些商人在台灣或大陸買到新珠後，外銷到尼泊爾及西藏，再雇請當地老嫗穿戴在身上，在觀光客最多的拉薩八角廓招搖過市，不消說，包準會有台灣人前來問訊，老太太再假意推託一番後才成交。
