    The poor don't go to the South, and the rich don't go to the North. Why, exactly? What does wealth and poverty have to do with the region?

    In fact, this sentence is not so simple as the surface, the deep meaning is more related to the ancient Qing Dynasty, it is reported that this saying originated in the Qing Dynasty, after the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, Beijing as its own capital, because Beijing's geographical conditions are very superior, so the Qing Dynasty rulers will regard this as the capital, and the development is getting better and better.

    Originally, there were only Han people in Beijing, since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, Beijing is the world of Manchus and Han people, but most of the nobles are Manchus, because there are people with different cultural backgrounds, so there is a diversified Beijing, of course, it is also because of this diversification that it has led to the impact of Beijing's culture, making Beijing very different from the previous economic pattern. In order to facilitate management, the ruler divided the city of Beijing into four directions: east, west, north and south.

    If you want to do business, you have to go to the east, because the traffic is very convenient from the east by the canal, according to Feng Shui, the east is a good place to do business, because there are big merchants, so it is called Dongfu. And the north and the south in our proverb are relatively miserable, known as the poor in the south and the cheap in the north, the poor are the poor, the ordinary people with humble status, mostly some declining nobles and some coolie workers, so the average poor are not willing to go to the south, because it is not a place to get rich.

    Ancient China was an agrarian society dominated by agriculture, with little rain in the north and a cold climate, which was not conducive to the growth of crops, while the south had abundant rain, a warm climate and fertile land, so most of the rich land in ancient times was in the south, especially in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

    The southward shift of China's economic center of gravity began during the Three Kingdoms, the Jin Dynasty, the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and ended in the Song and Song dynasties.

    1. Began to move south: the period of the Three Kingdoms and the Two Jin Dynasties and the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

    Prior to this, the economic development of the north far exceeded that of the south, and the economic center of gravity was in the north, although the economic center of gravity also changed during this period, but it was always moving east and west in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River. Since then, due to the development of Shu Han and Eastern Wu, the economy of the south has begun to develop.

    2. The economic center of gravity shifted rapidly to the south: the Sui and Tang dynasties.

    The center of gravity of the economy has shifted rapidly to the south, and economic development has basically tended to be balanced from the north to the south, and the south has begun to surpass the north. In the last years of the Western Jin Dynasty and the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms, the south where the Southern Dynasties were located was further developed, and the social and economic development of the south was faster than that of the north.

    3. The southward movement was finally completed: from the Northern Song Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty.

    During the Northern Song Dynasty, the southern economy continued to develop sustainably, and by the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the economic center of gravity had completed the historical process of moving southward. The fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, the southern crossing of the Song Dynasty, and the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty marked the shift of China's economic center of gravity to the southeast, and China has steadily formed an economic pattern in which the southern economy is ahead of the north, and the most developed Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions in the south have become the economic center of gravity of the whole country for a long time.

    The reasons for the southward shift of the economic center of gravity in ancient China:

    1. The long-term war in the north and the relative stability in the south have provided a favorable social environment for the economic development of the south.

    2. A large number of working people in the north moved south to escape the war, enriching the labor force in the south and bringing advanced tools and technologies.

    3. The southward shift of the political center (such as the Southern Dynasties and the Southern Song Dynasty) or the eastward movement (such as the Ming and Qing dynasties) accelerated the development of the south.

    4. The natural conditions in the south are good, suitable for agricultural development, and the external conditions are better than those in the north.

    According to the author's observation, compared with northerners, the following characteristics of southerners are conducive to their prosperity:

    Diligence: Perhaps the northerners are lazy because of the climate or the sparse nature of the land. And the southerners are mostly able to endure hardships and stand hard work, and they leave their homeland to get rich;

    Huddle: Southerners are more important than northerners, and at the beginning of a person's business, they can get the help of their fellow villagers, while northerners are worse in this regard.

    Thrifty: Different from the situation where the northerners are poor and generous, and they are eager to invite them to their homes as relatives when they meet a person on the road; Southerners are polite, but more refined, and wealth accumulates a lot.

    Soft character: Not much to say, once I met two very evil people on the train and asked a few southerners to get up and sit for them, and the southerners let it go as soon as they saw that they were not opponents, and if the northerners had already started fighting. This kind of character of the southerners is suitable for survival and development outside.

    Humility: Southerners are very polite and generally do not express their intentions directly, but they tend to handle things that are directly related to their intentions very decently, making people feel sorry for not offering to do something for them, so they are easy to get help from others. At this point, the northerners are not comparable.

    Independence: Strictly speaking, Chinese lack independence, and whoever is developed among relatives and friends wants to take a ride. But in contrast, southerners are better than northerners in this regard, which is conducive to cultivating an individual's entrepreneurial spirit.

    Pragmatism: The pursuit of southerners to be more life-oriented, earning money and living a good life was clear from the beginning. And the northerners think more, official position, learning, fame, etc., thinking left and right, and their attention is scattered.

    In addition, southerners have a higher level of education than northerners, which is one of the important foundations of wealth.

    As a northerner, just picking up the benefits of southerners says it's time to be bricked. So what are the advantages of our northerners? I think there's just one: big grin: cool! Poor and poor!

    Happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

    The soil of the north is fertile.

    In general, the soil in the north contains more humus, and the soil in the south contains more iron, so the soil in the north is more fertile than the soil in the south, of course, the Sichuan Basin in the south is an exception, and the soil in the Sichuan Basin is also very fertile.

    The Northeast Plain is the largest plain in China, located between Changbai Mountain, the Great Xing'an Mountains, and the Little Xing'an Mountains, and is composed of three parts: the Songnen Plain, the Sanjiang Plain and the Liaohe Plain.

    The North China Plain is located south of the Yanshan Mountains, east of the Taihang Mountains, north of the Huai River, and bordered by the ocean in the east. The North China Plain is an alluvial plain formed by sediment deposition carried by the Yellow River and Haihe River during the geological and historical period, and the soil is loess.

    Southerners are generally richer than northernersMany people say that the southerners are rich because the south is just in time for the big opening. In fact, it makes sense that southerners are richer than northerners, after all, they have different hearts.

    The biggest difference between northerners and southerners is that many people will say: one loves to drink wine, and the other loves to drink tea. As the saying goes:

    Three cups of wine in the red dust, a pot of tea for thousands of years". Drinking is sometimes a good thing, but sometimes it's a bad thing. Northerners drink hard, while southerners drink as much as they can, in moderation.

    Northerners start bragging after drinking, and after drinking, they say how powerful they are. However, southerners generally do not speak after drinking, and go back to their own homes to sleep. Southerners like to drink tea, everyone sits together and drinks tea, and the more they drink tea, the more they feel poor, so they talk about how to make money, so this is the difference between drinking in the south and the north.

    First of all, Guangdong's geographical location is relatively good, belongs to the coastal area, is the only way to Hong Kong and Macao, the tourism industry is developed, and because it is adjacent to Hong Kong and Macao, it is more convenient to attract investment in Hong Kong and Macao, so all kinds of industries are developed.

    The superior geographical location allows Guangdong to make up for the processing of materials from three to one, from manufacturing to intelligent information technology industry, with a complete range of categories, frequent exchanges with various places, and reflects the innovation ability of Guangdong.

    Secondly, Guangdong is the first city to carry out the pilot reform and opening up, and a series of policies such as the Pearl River Delta region, Zhuhai Special Economic Zone, Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, and now the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, etc., have made Guangdong develop rapidly.

    Because of the rapid development, it has attracted many advanced talents and technology and other backbones, coupled with the attracted foreign capital and technology, so that many top talents have gathered in Guangdong.

    In ancient China, the capital and center of rule were in the north, while in modern times, the southern coastline of China is longer, and there are more external ** than the north, so the southern economy is more developed.

    Friends who like history know that most of China's ancient capitals were in the north, such as Chang'an and Luoyang. The capital is a political, cultural, and economic center, but why is the South generally more developed than the North in modern times? Because, the modern southern monsoon climate is significant, the rainfall is abundant, and there are more exchanges than in the north.

    Most of the coastal ports are important ports connecting Southeast Asia, and there are many merchant ships, which promotes the development of its industry and commerceThis is one of the reasons why the South is more developed.

    Another reason is that in ancient societies, the greatest threat to the Central Plains Dynasty generally came from the northern nomads. They live on water and grass. They are very ferocious.

    The north stood on the front lines against the nomads who migrated south.

    Another reason was that the aristocratic families of the north moved south to avoid war. The giants are relatively strong in natural and economic power, and relatively high in cultural literacy. After moving to the south, the rest of the ordinary people in the north were poor.

    In order not to be robbed, they fought with nomads, resulting in the difference in the character of the northern and southern peoples. Northerners are straightforward, Southerners are calm. There were many literati and politicians in the South, and there were many fierce generals in the North.

    In ancient times, when industry and commerce were not developed, once a war broke out in the north, strategic materials from the south would be continuously transported to the north to provide materials for the imperial court to fight against the nomads. In modern times, the economy of the southern region is significantly higher than that of the north due to the frequent foreign economic and trade exchanges. Both the South and the North have their own advantages, and both are making contributions to the construction and development of the motherland.
