Song Dynasty's thick marriage atmosphere
, but no matter which dynasties are not as exaggerated as the Song Dynasty marrying. In the Song Dynasty, Hanmen Shizi and the businessmen and children at the end of the " Shinan Farm Industry" were qualified to take the imperial examination test, and they could change their destiny by participating in the imperial examinations. There are poems to describe the scene of men's Dengke: " is Tian She Lang, Mu Deng Tiaizi. " But this triggered a class discrimination against the citizen class in the Song Dynasty. The merchant is also the bottom "chef".

They can not only make money with money " Catch" "" Handle money to bait, to push it down, one son to more than a thousand or two ". From the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the wealthy businessman who was wearing the court's "life service" was "full of the world, one state and one county, there is nowhere to do."
