Faazin Gei (Chinese: 花箋記; pinyin: Huājiān Jì; Jyutping: Faa1zin1 Gei3), or The Flowery Paper is a Chinese style ballad written in the late Ming era. It is the earliest known work containing elements of written Cantonese. This book was also of particular interest to early European Sinology. Along with Iu-Kiao-Li, it is regarded one of most influential Chinese books for 19th century European writers.
