the history of restaurant development

the origin and development of China's catering industry, China was sparsely populated in ancient times. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, in order to facilitate your official to travel long distances to deliver documents, there has been a post station to provide your official to recover from the fatigue of the journey, and to provide accommodation and meals so that they can continue another long delivery work the next day. In fact, this is the prototype of China's catering industry.

in fact, after the monetary policy was formulated in the Qin dynasty, large-scale transactions began to occur in the civil society, and the market came into being. The people's nature of "food is the most important thing" was naturally revealed in the trading phenomenon, and the essence of trading was to make a living. The nature of the transaction is inevitable to barter things or exchange money for things. The so-called things naturally refer to some daily necessities and food. Since food can be obtained from the transaction, meals are sold out of nothing, specifically, catering.
