Pun Design:
Lychee or Chestnut
Punning Details：
– ‘Li 荔’ for ‘lychee’ and ‘li 栗’ for ‘chestnut’ have the same pronunciation in Chinese as ‘li 利’ for ‘profit’.
– Many lychees or chestnuts seen in the picture convey ‘duo 多’ for ‘plenty’, and ‘li 荔’ or ‘li 栗’, which is a pun on ‘duo li 多利’ for ‘plenty of profit’.
