During the Song Dynasty, what did ghost market mean, and what was so weird?

During the Song Dynasty, there was a "ghost market". People often say that people who trade in the ghost market don't know whether they are people or ghosts, so they think it's weird. But "ghost city" refers toThe market that is traded between the early hours of the morning and dawn

So what are some of the "weird" aspects of it?

First of all, why did there be a ghost market at that time? We know that the Tang Dynasty practicedCurfew regimeThe night market was not legal in the Tang Dynasty, and many people secretly traded in the evening as the ghost market was the predecessor of the bud, because at that time the Song Dynasty broke the way system of the Tang Dynasty, but implemented a curfew, so the ghost market appeared on a large scale. Because of it".In the middle of the night, they are clear and dispersedThe market is open, so it is called a ghost market.

Ghost City" withAntique marketThere is a direct connection, in the ghost market, there are often antiques, clothes, utensils and other strange things. Antique vendors from all over the world come to set up stalls in the middle of the night, and people who come to shop for goods come to hunt for treasures before dawn with lanterns, and because it is a market in the middle of the night, it is a ghost marketThe voices of the people were noisy, the light was dim, and the figures of the stalls and the people who came to trade were like ghosts, so some people think it's weird.

Another weird thing about ghost markets is that they canSell stolen goods。According to records, Ji Xiaolan once lost a cigarette stick and looked for it for a long time but didn't find it, so Ji Xiaolan asked people to go to the "ghost market" at night to have a look, and sure enough, the person he sent took back the cigarette stick from the ghost market at a low price. Not only Ji Xiaolan, but also many court leaders, wealthy businessmen, etcLost itemsYou can find it all here.

So it's also said that it has a certain weirdness.

But in fact, if you look at it so closely, the ghost market is actually just peopleA venue for late-night trading, it's only because of the over-exaggeration of some stories that there is what people call weird.

It mainly refers to the market that is traded from the early hours of the morning to dawn. Because the market is usually open in the middle of the night, the rooster crows and disperses, a bit like the legendary "ghost haunted" period, so it is called "ghost market".

During the Song Dynasty, the ghost market always opened in the middle of the night, and the market was separated before the rooster crowed, so as to carry out some shady trading. Because ordinary people can't find it at all, it's called a ghost market.

Ghost markets are street markets that were open at night at that time, but were rarely visited by ordinary people.

It's a night market at night, and the reason why it's called a ghost market is because there may be ghosts at night, but there's nothing weird about it.

The ghost market of the Song Dynasty actually refers to a bazaar that is only open at night. There's nothing weird about it.

Don't be a man, only be a ghost", the rooster and dog thief, take out the stolen things and sell them while it is dark, which is called "not seeing the light".

Actually, it's not a supernatural place, it's the kind of night market, open all night, and it often sells some strange things.

A ghost market in the Song Dynasty was actually similar to the black market we are talking about now, all of which were to do some shady transactions.

The ghost market actually has nothing to do with ghosts, but because it is a market that only happens at night, it is called a ghost market.

One of the most economically prosperous dynasties in ancient Chinese history was the Song Dynasty. The reason for this phenomenon, in addition to the budding development of capitalism in the Song Dynasty, is that the Song Dynasty broke the inherent fang market system of the Tang Dynasty and no longer implemented curfews. The relaxation of these policies promoted the prosperity and prosperity of commerce in the Song Dynasty.

On this basis, the Song Dynasty began to appear on a large scale "ghost market".

What is a "ghost market"? It mainly refers to the market that is traded from the early hours of the morning to dawn. Because the market is usually open in the middle of the night, the rooster crows and disperses, a bit like the legendary "ghost haunted" period, so it is called "ghost market".

In addition to this reason, the ghost market can be said to be the earliest counterfeit market in China. There, antiques, clothes, utensils, all kinds of strange things will appear, but the quality is not guaranteed. Some people can pick up the leaks, and some people are pitted with no return.

It is often said that the people who trade in it are not able to distinguish between people and ghosts, so "ghost market" also has such a meaning.

According to the record of "Tokyo Menghualu", in the Northern Song Dynasty, ghost markets had fixed places. For example, on the cross street east of Pan Lou in Kaifeng Mansion, there is a ghost market. The ghost market is often lit up at five watches every night to sell clothes, pictures, garlands, collar wipes and other women's products.

The Pan Lou Hotel in the East Corner Tower of Kaifeng Mansion began to sell clothes, antiques, and treasures at five o'clock every night, and the stalls were closed in the morning. According to the record of "Kindergarten Qionglin", in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a He family building in Tokyo with a high level of fraud. Because of his family's long-term high-quality imitations, over time, people only know fakes but not the real ones.

Of course, in addition to the high level of fraud in the ghost market, some people's marketing methods are also quite powerful. According to the records of Yijian Sanzhi Sijuan, there was a butcher named Sun San in the Song Dynasty who specialized in rushing to the morning market. Every day when he goes out, he will tell his wife:

Our cat baby, don't lose it! After a long time, the neighbor became curious and managed to see the cat baby of the Sun San family. I saw that it was a big red cat, majestic and magnificent, and it didn't look ordinary.

After Sun San came back, he beat his wife for this incident.

Gradually, the news that Sun San's family had a treasure spread to the palace. In order to appease the emperor, a eunuch wanted to buy the cat baby from Sun San, but Sun San refused. Later, it rose to 300 yuan, and Sun Sancai "reluctantly" made a move.

As a result, when the eunuch bought it back, he found that the red cat had lost color. By the time he sent someone to arrest Sun San, Sun San's family had already fled. In addition, there is also some chatter and strange colors in the ghost market.

Legend has it that when Ouyang Xiu passed by the wild bank of the Han River, he heard the laughter of men, women and children in the haze, the sound of selling and shouting, and the lively scene was like the day, and it did not disperse until dawn. The next day, Ouyang Xiu went ashore to check, and found that it was just an old site of the Sui Dynasty, empty, and he was instantly frightened into a cold sweat. Therefore, this ghost market has a bit of mystery.

The "ghost market" of the Song Dynasty, in short, was a hidden night market, and it was called a "ghost market" only because of its special opening time and special way of operation.

Ouyang Xiu, we all know that he is a famous writer, the ghost market should be unique in the pen of a writer, and it is a little exaggerated to say it in a cold sweat!

Those who have studied ancient Chinese history know that the economy of the Song Dynasty was the most prosperous, and the earliest paper money appeared at that time, called "Jiaozi".

The reason for the economic prosperity was that the budding capitalism had developed at that time, and the Song Dynasty broke the fang market system inherited from the Tang Dynasty and no longer imposed curfews. The liberal policy promoted the prosperity and exuberance of commerce at that time. Therefore, it is not surprising that there is a "ghost market" at this time.

A "ghost market" specifically refers to trading in the market from the early hours of the morning to dawn. The market opens at "midnight and the roosters crow", which is a bit like the time of the "ghost haunting" in the legend, so it is called the "ghost market".

"Ghost" as an adjective, in the impression of Chinese people, it has a false meaning. Therefore, it seems logical to sell fakes in ghost markets. In the ghost market, antiques, clothes, utensils, etc., all kinds of things are sold, but the quality is not guaranteed.

Someone can pick up the slack, but they can also be cheated for a sum of money because of their vision. The people who trade in it seem to be indistinguishable from ghosts, so the mystery of the "ghost market" is there.

Tokyo Menghualu records that the ghost markets in the Northern Song Dynasty had fixed places. For example, on the cross street in the east of Panlou in Kaifeng Prefecture, there is a ghost market. The city lights up the business every night at five watches, ** clothing, pictures, garlands, collar wipes and other feminine products, the day is just dawn, and the buying and selling are convenient.

It is also recorded in "Kindergarten Qionglin" that in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a He family building in Tokyo, and the level of counterfeiting was very high. Because of the long-term high imitation of A goods, after a long time, people only know fakes but do not know the real thing, and treat the fake as the real thing!

It is said that Ouyang Xiu once passed by the wild bank of the Han River, and in the haze he heard the noisy conversation of men, women, and children, and there were also shouting and shouting, and the market was as lively as a day, and it did not disperse until dawn. The next day, he went ashore to check and found that it was just an old Sui Dynasty site, and it was empty. He instantly broke out in a cold sweat!

The mystery of the ghost city is even more mysterious when it is praised by literary scholars.

If that is, the market that is traded from early morning to dawn. Because the market is usually open in the middle of the night, the rooster crows and disperses, a bit like the legendary "ghost haunted" period, so it is called "ghost market".

When Ouyang Xiu passed by on the wild bank of the Han River, he heard the laughter of men, women and children in the haze, the sound of selling and shouting, and the lively scene was like a daylight, and it did not disperse until dawn.

The ghost market is the night market, Ouyang Xiu is on the side of the Han River, and when he passes by, he dimly hears the laughter, shouting and selling of men, women and children, and the excitement is as if it is daytime until dawn. Mistaken for a ghost bazaar.

The hidden night market is called a ghost market because of the special time it started at a special time and the way it operates.

The ghost market is a place to operate some special things, gossip information, and ** are very expensive, because there is a ghost word, it has a sense of mystery.

Because the ghost thing is the night market in ancient times, but Ouyang Xiu has never seen such a scene, life is noisy, and there are many shouts and besieged cities.

The ghost market is a night market that is open at night, and the sound is noisy and chaotic at night. Plus a lot of dark deals are done at night.

We have ghost markets in film and television dramas, but in fact, there were really ghost markets in ancient times. Because there were curfews in ancient dynasties, you can't go out at night and can only stay at home. So it wasn't until the Song Dynasty abolished this rule that people could travel at night, so the ghost market was born.

The ghost market is full of people, and when they trade in the middle of the night, they sell a variety of items and are very complicated.

1. In the ancient ghost market before the Song Dynasty, for the sake of social security, there was a curfew system, and you could not wander on the street at night, and violators were severely punished. After the abolition of the curfew system in the Song Dynasty, people could go out and hang out at night, so the night market flourished at night. This initiative also contributed to the prosperity of the Song Dynasty.

So the ghost market also came into being, and they started at two o'clock in the morning and closed at four or five o'clock. Because it often starts in the middle of the night, it is like the time when ghosts haunt it, so it should be called a ghost market.

Second, the appearance of the ghost marketThe ghost market sells everything, daily necessities, ancient painting collections, and rare treasures, which can be said to be varied. In addition to the constant opening and closing times, the ghost market also has a fixed place to sell, such as selling clothes and antiques, etc., which are separated for everyone to choose. But because the things sold in the ghost market are complicated, and the public security is very chaotic, because the situation of selling fake goods is very rampant.

There are not only fake calligraphy and paintings, jewelry, but also fake animals, which can be said to be a mixture of fish and dragons, and it is very confusing. But not all of them are fakes. There are also many people who are serious about buying and selling, so this is a great test of people's eyesight.

Because the Song Dynasty lifted the curfew system, it promoted the economic prosperity of the Song Dynasty and also drove the market economy, and the ghost market flourished because of this. In the ghost market, it can be said that there are all kinds of items for sale, dazzling and colorful, but there are also a lot of fakes, good and bad, mixed with fish and pearls. If you are not familiar with the ghost market, you will see the lights in the middle of the night, but at dawn they will close the stalls and disappear without a trace.

That's why it's going to scold everyone. The prosperity of the ghost market represented the economic prosperity of the Song Dynasty.

The ghost market has a fixed place, for example, the ghost market on the cross street east of Pan Lou in Kaifeng Mansion mainly sells women's products such as clothes, pictures, garlands, and collar wipes, while the east corner building of Kaifeng Mansion sells antiques, gold and silver and other valuables.

The ghost market is actually a special morning market, and the opening time of the ghost market is generally "in the middle of the night, and the roosters crow and disperse", and it is opened in the middle of the night. Because the time point is very similar to the time period of the legendary ghost haunt, the ghost smell is strong, so it is given such a strange name by people.

It's a place to do trading, and the people who are active in the ghost market are all living people, and they trade in the middle of the night, and the items sold in it are all kinds of complicated.

As we all know, in the history of China, our countryThe period of economic prosperity was in the Song DynastyThe level of economic development in China during the Song and Song dynasties was quite high. During the Song Dynasty, China was very wealthy.

The Song Dynasty was the most prosperous era in Chinese history in terms of economy, culture, and educationThe pinnacle of feudal society。Chen Yinke, a famous historian, said: "The culture of the Chinese nation has evolved over thousands of years, and it was created in the Zhao and Song dynasties.

Kaifeng, located in the center of the East Henan Plain, also known as Bianliang and Bianjing, was the capital of the Song Dynasty for 168 years, and was the famous cultural, economic, artistic, and political center at that time, and there was also a morning market, a ghost market, etc., so what is a ghost market?

Ghost CityThe name is very different from its actual meaning, in fact, it has nothing to do with ghosts, ghost city refers toFrom the early hours of the morning to the dawn of the BuddhaIn the market that is traded during this time, there are many things in the market, and the variety is complete, but there is no way to guarantee the quality and so on, so the morning market is prone to fakes, which is why it is calledCounterfeit market。These businessmen are not only more and more capable of counterfeiting, but also have strong marketing methods, not only sell their own goods, but also not let customers see that things are fake, Qingming Shanghe Tu describes this prosperous scene in the Song Dynasty, so why was Ouyang Xiu scared out of a cold sweat when he passed by.

It turned out that when Ouyang Xiu passed by here, he heard the voices of men, women and children in the haze at night, all kinds of shouting and selling, and it didn't disperse until dawn, and after going ashore the next day, he found that it was empty, and he sweated in an instant, so the ghost market also brought a magical hazy color, the most important thing is that there isTalk about the colors of the zodiac
