In the old days, salary was fixed for certain trades. One tael (两) per month or 1000 copper (铜戗). But the home was clan built, clothes can only be hemp or silk. Furniture, they made themselves with wood. So they traded food, eating utensils and cloth. 🥰
Spice came from Sulawesi, Hemp from hills of IndoChina, Guangxi, Yunnan, Fish sauce from Vietnam, Fujien. Teak & Gems was & is from Burma. Pretty cool in the ancient era. 🤗
@1484 2 I just like to write something more than your usual fella. Try Google, it gets you a lot of info. I spend quite a long time before I could type all that info. It's good to exercise our brain a little. 🤣
Thank you for the sharing. Thank you for the great works being performed; some 20+ years already! Question 1 - The excavation works now performing is on dry land. Is the site being "dry dock" whereby the water are being pumped out after building a "dam enclosure around the artifact"?
Old days PILLAR INDUSTRY, Zhejiang was Silk & Cooking wine, Jiangxi was & is porcelain, Fujien was & is Tea. Guangdong then was very prosperous, not like today products of manufacture BUT food. Rice, cured pork, dried Seafood, salted fish, salted vegetables, citrus and trading entreport. 🤣🥰🤩
CGTN, your on line streaming English translation can be improved. It is hard to understand. The translator speaks in low voices. He speaks too quickly. In fact, you are better off not having the on line streaming translation if this is the standard. If I have problems, I bet many non Chinese people have even more problems trying to comprehend your translators.
There is room for improvement but this serie is still very interesting! It gives international audience a chance to see what China has to offer. Furthermore it shows that China is not the scary place that some of the trolls picture it to be!
