As an economic department specializing in commodity circulation, commerce is also a bridge and link for the smooth flow of commodities in various localities and departments.

Extended data
The formation and development of China commercial center has experienced the historical evolution of ancient times, modern times and new China.
In the ancient pre-Qin period, there were some commodity distribution centers in the Yellow River valley where China's commercial and economic activities were developed, such as Daliang (now Kaifeng), Yuji (now Beijing) and Luoyang, which were the seeds of China's commercial center.
During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, some commercial centers began to appear. In the early Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Yellow River valley was the center, and the commercial centers were concentrated in the north and the mainland, such as Chang 'an in Xijing and Luoyang in the east.
With the prosperity of the national economy, the geographical distribution of commercial centers expanded southward, and new commercial centers gradually appeared in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, such as Jiankang (now Nanjing), Suzhou, Hangzhou and Yangzhou, and Chengdu in the southwest, but Chang 'an was still the largest and most prosperous commercial center in China at that time.
During the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the commercial centers in China further changed and increased, mainly in the south. For example, Lin 'an (now Hangzhou) in the Song Dynasty became the largest commercial center in China at that time; During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were more than 50 commercial centers in China. In the north, except Beijing and Shengjing (now Shenyang), they have all become national commercial centers, because they have become the seat of Kyoto.
Southern commercial centers are the most prosperous in the south of the Yangtze River, the southeast coast and along the canal, and some famous commercial cities have emerged, such as Zhuxian Town in Henan, Jingdezhen in Jiangxi, Foshan Town in Guangdong and Hankou Town in Hubei (now Wuhan) in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
In modern times, from the Opium War to the establishment of People's Republic of China (PRC) 100, due to the development of western powers, the commercial centers of China were concentrated in the eastern coastal areas, with less inland and unbalanced geographical distribution. The commercial centers in this period were mainly Guangzhou, Shanghai, Tianjin, Xiamen, Qingdao and Dalian, among which Shanghai was the most prosperous.
Since the founding of New China, in addition to the technical transformation of the southeast coastal commercial centers and the effective adjustment of the commercial and economic structure, industrial and mining enterprises and transportation in the vast mainland, especially in the northwest and southwest regions, have developed, which has led to the rapid rise of a number of new commercial centers such as Lanzhou and Xi 'an.
Moreover, from a national perspective, various provinces (regions), prefectures, counties and even towns (market towns) have initially formed a multi-level business center system. The geographical distribution of commercial centers has gradually developed from the eastern coast to the mainland, and the unreasonable distribution of commercial centers formed in history has gradually improved and become more reasonable.
