Origin:
In the early days of the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty, only the Zhou and Heluo areas were directly ruled, and the influence of merchants (Yin people) was still very strong, and there were a large number of foreigners around. Although Zhou Wuwang enfeoffed Wu Geng, the son of Zhou Wang in Yin, he also sent his first brothers, Guan Shu, Cai Shu and Huo Shu, to set up Thailand, Yan and Wei countries near the capital of Yin to monitor Wu Geng, which was known as the Three Supervisors in history. But I still feel that the world is unstable and I often can't sleep at night.
Sure enough, after his death, Wu Geng joined forces with the Three Supervisors and Xu, Yan and Bo Gu of Dongyi to rebel together. Duke Zhou crusaded eastward and put down the rebellion for three years, eliminating the remnants of Yin and Shang Dynasties.
After the rebellion, the Duke of Zhou changed the enfeoffment system and decided to divide the merchants.
In the pre-Shang Dynasty, especially in the East, feudal countries were widely established. In addition to sending Zhou people to explore, feudal countries also sealed businessmen to these countries to manage.
According to Zuo Zhuan, there are six Yin people in the state of Lu: Tiao, Xu, Xiao, Suo, Chang Shao; Weiguo acquired the "seven Yin clans": Tao, Shi, Fan, Zhu, Hunger and Zhong Kui.
