In 2001, China's first time-travel TV series was released, allowing us to start fantasizing about the lives of the ancients.
You should know that Edison invented the electric light in 1879. This means that for thousands of years, humans have illuminated candles and oil lamps at night. According to historical records, during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhang Fei fought at night with , Ma Chao and , and ordered soldiers to light torches to fight.
Of course, the ancients also had natural free lanterns - the bright moon in the sky.
No lighting means that the ancients did not have nightlife? Absolutely not.
The constraints of the nightlife of the ancients - curfew
The sixth street drums rest and the pedestrians are gone, the nine streets are vast and the moon is facing the moon
Speaking of the nightlife of the ancients, we must start with the curfew. In the Zhou Dynasty, there was a curfew in our country, which was night control. The department in charge of the curfew was called "Sixia".
"When the palm is at night, the stars are used to divide the night, and the night men are ordered to prohibit the night men from walking in the morning, those who are forbidden to walk in the night, those who are forbidden to walk in the night, those who are traveling in the night."
implements a curfew, mainly to prevent thieves, thefts and refugees, to prevent gatherings and riots, and to prevent spies.
Because there are no clocks, there was a curfew in ancient times, and the sound of the street drums were used as the horn. For example, in the Tang Dynasty, the time was recorded using missing , and the time of missing html is under the jurisdiction of the yamen. Therefore, if the "day carving" in the yamen was over at that time, it would mean that it was at night. At this time, the yamen will beat the "closed-door drum" 600 times, indicating that night is coming.
It is from 5:00 am (3:48:00 am to 4:11:59 am), and the yamen will beat the "door opening drum", no more or less than 400 times, indicating that the day is coming.
weeks ago, there were curfew systems in the Spring and Autumn Period, the Warring States Period, the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Jin and Southern Dynasties, the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are countless interesting stories about celebrities who were punished for the curfew system:
Han Jiang Li Guang , once he came back late from drinking and was stopped by Baling Wei. After passing a little, the city gate was closed and could not go home. So Li Guang showed off his official power, but it was useless. If the curfew is under the control of the people and above, it is said that violating the curfew is "offending the night". Physical punishment is indispensable, "Put your good meal" (clip your fingers).
Song Dynasty night market is no less than modern
On the curfew, only the late Tang Dynasty, Five Dynasties and the Song Dynasty were free from the shackles.
In contrast, the colorful and extremely prosperous night markets of the Song Dynasty simply "patterned" the night markets of the late Tang and the Five Dynasties. In the early Northern Song Dynasty, the curfew time was changed from one to the third update, extending the daytime. According to historical records, the commodity economy in the Song Dynasty was the most developed. At that time, the markets were extremely lively and the nightlife was even more colorful.
One street converges, and then the two markets are roaring all night, and the lights are constantly on the verge of lights. Every five o'clock, buying and selling clothes, pictures, garlands, collars, etc., and they are scattered until dawn, which is called Guishizi.
Except for us in modern nights watching movies, playing with mobile phones, and playing with electric power, the people of the Song Dynasty did everything else we could do. All of this is attributed to the open attitude of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, which made the whole people in the night market happy.
How much do you know about the famous night market in China’s modern list?
Huimin Street in Xi'an, Confucius Temple in Nanjing, Jiqing Street Night Market in Wuhan, Donghuamen Street Night Market in Beijing, Taipei Shilin Night Market , Kaifeng Gulou Night Market, Hangzhou Hefang Street Night Market... countless.
In August this year, the State Council issued opinions on vigorously developing holidays and night economy , and localities across the country have begun to vigorously reform and plan for the night economy. Night markets occupy an important position in the night economy. As the operating carrier of night markets, mobile dining trucks have become common problems in night markets across the country due to environmental pollution, noise pollution, road occupation, poor appearance and night safety...
In early November, the Xi'an Municipal Urban Management Committee proposed a system of "seven fixed, seven unified, three hanging, and two meeting standards" for night market vendor group operations, requiring night market mobile dining trucks to determine the types of business, business stalls, business time, business price, business ingredients, supervision and publicity, and garbage classification; unified operation of food trucks, unified operation signs, unified floor laying, unified operation tableware, unified work clothes, unified lighting, unified sanitation and cleaning... It can be said that it is a "symptomatic treatment" for the ills of my country's mobile dining trucks and night markets.
In fact, in my country, mobile dining cars have long been "changed in the old appearance". The advent of customized mobile dining cars by Dake Auto directly hits the ills of traditional dining cars and reshapes the standards of mobile dining cars.
Intelligent mobile commercial carriers open standardized mobile night markets
The ancients may never have expected that today, a thousand years later, the operating carriers of night markets have changed several times.
has developed from wooden wheels, hand-pushing, pedal tricycle, gasoline four-wheeler, electric three-wheeler dining car to Dake Automobile research and development with a variable structure, and has a "circuit, waterway, energy, equipment, functions, and environmental protection" system, integrating production and sales into a large-scale mobile commercial transportation tool. Designed in accordance with the requirements of the national environmental protection department, it has functions such as oil fume purification, oil-water separation, sewage treatment, and garbage degradation. It is divided into two categories: power type and powerless type.
powered mobile dining car - dual output of marketing and product and publicity
powered mobile dining car, specially developed for brands and chain catering, customized whole vehicles, matching corporate needs and characteristics. The application of special vehicle-based kitchen equipment independently developed by Dake Auto has broken the dilemma of my country's mobile dining car without special equipment by assembling mobile dining car, customized equipment and tableware, ensuring the uniqueness of the brand, the equipment is tightly seamless, and there are no safety hazards when driving and selling. The painting design that integrates enterprise VI, urban regional characteristics and fashion elements allows mobile dining trucks to take into account the mission of brand output and urban cultural heritage while operating.
powerless dining car - a new carrier for mobile blocks
powerless dining car is a mobile commercial carrier designed by Dake Auto for the development of stocks in the core urban areas. The "mobile block model" built by Dake Automobile forms a new comprehensive consumer body through brand entry, unified management, and continuous operation. It is suitable for scenic spots, pedestrian streets, and commercial districts. The mobile commercial district integrating "eating, drinking, traveling, and shopping" saves manpower and material costs such as traditional store construction. It comes and goes as soon as it is called, and is mobile and flexible.
Whether it is a powered dining car or a powered dining car, because of the brand’s entry and supply chain as a backing, it allows taste, food safety, etc. to be traceable. At the same time, it is fully in line with the requirements of the Urban Management Committee for the "seven fixed and seven unified" food truck operation. It is not only applicable to the "night economy", but also can solve the problem of dining difficulties during the peak dining periods such as communities, office buildings, and exhibitions during the day.
The times are changing, but people’s basic needs for night markets have never changed. As far back as the ancients, they also knew that they were used for work during the day and for consumption at night, which created the grand scene of the night market in ancient times. In the new retail era, the application of mobile business carriers and business models has found marketing carriers and traffic entrances for offline markets for hundreds of industries. The "night" has not changed, and the "market" is changing.
