Local authorities have detained two foreign suspects, it added without giving details.
In a separate case, south China's Guangdong Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau found 400 grams of dried cannabis in an e-commerce package from the United States on Feb. 25.
An inspector using an X-ray machine noticed it under a layer of black tea in the package, according to a statement from the bureau.
It was the first time the cannabis strain indica had been found in a foreign e-commerce package.
Local authorities detained a suspect in early March and closed the e-commerce account used to import the cannabis, the bureau said.
