What is the night watchman?
The ancients said that the first nine grades actually belonged to those with higher status or talent; On the contrary, low-income people are those who have no skills, even all kinds of uncontroversial people. In ancient culture, the upper nine streams and the lower nine streams were the standards to distinguish grades. From the distinction between these nine schools, we can see that the ladder differentiation in ancient times was really serious; In ancient times, people without ability were considered inferior and influenced social development.
First, the nine streams in ancient times were mainly aimed at people with status and ability.
In fact, Shang Jiuliu refers to the supreme emperor, the venerable sage, the hermit who lives in seclusion in the mountains, the child fairy who appeared under feudal thought, the literati and warriors who tried their best to show their abilities, and the farmers, workers and businessmen who worked hard for their lives.
In the distinction between ancient and nine streams, it is mainly to see whether this type of people have worked hard or not. Maybe many people can't understand why the emperor called 96. After all, they hardly photographed the mountains and rivers. You know, under the feudal monarchy, the emperor naturally belongs to the crowd in 1996.
Second, in ancient times, low-income people were mainly people who were difficult to be elegant, and more people were idle.
Most of the inferior people despised by the ancients were those who were lazy to walk or cheated people in various ways to gain benefits. After all, in the eyes of the ancients, all kinds of small means were done by inferior people.
Dirty people generally refer to witches who extend feudal superstitions, geisha or prostitutes who sing in brothels, godlike sticks under feudal products, bellmen who only know how to beat gongs and drums every night, hairdressers who wander around to cut people's hair, singers who play around in black and white, singers who can only rap without skills, beggars who wander the streets with nothing to do, and people who sell candy in the streets.
In ancient times, those who were difficult to go to the elegant hall or muddle along were considered inferior and had no status at all in ancient times.
