What is the origin of Shangqiu? Which dynasty did it originate from? Why Shangqiu?

Shangqiu is a city in Shangqiu City, Henan Province. It is a famous historical and cultural city in China and one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization. It is the origin and settlement of Shang tribes, the capital of Shang Dynasty and the birthplace of commercial trade. How did Shangqiu get its name?

The origin of Shangqiu place names has a lot to do with "fire". It is said that Emperor Hu came once because he likes to eat raw food. He felt bad about himself, so he sent his son Bo to deal with the fire. Hu Di called Bo "Shang". The eight migrations of Shang ancestors refer to the migration history of merchants. Historians say that the locations of these eight migrations show that the mound once set fire to the ground near the Shang Dynasty, and the mound became bigger and bigger, so people called it Shangqiu.

When studying the history of the Zhou Dynasty, we did not completely deny the merchant tradition, but absorbed a lot of trade system culture. After the King of Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty, he asked Kiko the rules of merchant rule. When Kangbo was involved in a public dispute, Duke Zhou ordered him to abide by the laws of Shang Dynasty. The Zhou Dynasty conquered merchants by force, and the Han Dynasty, Liang State, Southern Song Dynasty and Jin Dynasty all established their capitals here. Originated in Shangqiu and Shangqiu Dynasty, they were all established in Shangqiu, which is called "the source of the three merchants, the capital of China".

In Shang dynasty, a businessman was always called "Shang" and his name was "Yin". In the literature after the Western Zhou Dynasty, Yin represented Shang. The "Yin" of Zhou people can be derived from "Yi" or "Yi", which is a common practice in Shang Dynasty, and the significance of early Zen gradually disappeared. The ancients often quoted Yin merchants to increase the rhythm of writing. The original meaning of "lewdness" is "pleasure and wealth" and "lewdness". When these two words are used together, "yin" can be interpreted as greatness. Shangqiu is the place where the ancestors of merchants lived. During this period, residential houses appeared in Shangqiu. Merchants, goods and trade originated in Shangqiu. Shangqiu is known as the "source of three businesses". Because after the death of Shang Tang, the founding emperor of China, Wang Hai, the ancestor of China Merchants, established his capital in Shangqiu. It is the birthplace of an important business culture.
