Three hundred and sixty grandfathers in ancient times

We often say "360 lines, each line is the best", but in fact "360" here is definitely not an exact number, but a reference often used by the ancients to describe many industries. In fact, many industries still exist in modern times, while some industries did not exist in ancient times, but gradually developed in modern environment. Do you know who their ancestors were in some very old industries? Who were the ancestors of each of the ancient 360 lines, and how did they become the ancestors of this line?

"360 lines" is just a rough figure. According to Qingbo Magazine, the main industries in China in the Tang Dynasty were "36 lines", namely, meat shops, palace powder, ready-made clothes, jade articles, jewelry, silk, paper, seafood, fresh fish, stationery, tea, bamboo and wood, rice wine, ironware, ancient embroidery, needle and thread, soup shops, medicine shops, bookbinding and so on.

Tsui Hark said in Clearing Money, Agriculture, Industry and Commerce: "Thirty-six walkers, various occupations. As far as the division of labor is concerned, it is 36 lines, 72 lines, and 360 lines ten times. " It can be seen that "72 lines" is a virtual indicator, and the 72 lines or 360 lines that people often say today are not specific numbers. In fact, the division of labor in social industries has far exceeded the 72nd line.
