But my point is any time you export some physical good, you have a transaction going under the nose of the authorities. That's where they can stop you and ask some questions on the transaction that paid for those goods.

You paid for the transaction in CNY which is perfectly legal & normal (I would assume). The volume of exports from China is crazy and investigating every single transaction is not practical.
Yeah so part of it is in CNY and part of it is in btc. Can gov really say "wow you payed too little for that!"
Not even that. Although that's definitely another option!

I was thinking of two separate transactions with two separate parties: (BTC -> CNY, hidden as gift or loan) then (CNY -> goods, perfectly legal and normal).
