In today's Xi'an City, there are many places named after "Fang", Anren Fang, Changle Fang, and Tongji Fang.
"City": a trading place of various shapes
In addition to the fang, it is the "city". Chang'an is divided into the East Market and the West Market, and the "city" is the largest commercial district and the main place for trading and buying and selling in Chang'an City.
The allusion of "buying things" originates from the east and west markets here. Go to the East Market to buy, called "Buy East";Go to the West Market to buy it, and it's called "Buy West". Sometimes buying the east, sometimes buying the west, over time, it becomes what we call "buying things" in our daily life.
"Buy, buy, buy" must be carried out in both the east and west markets. If you live in Ande Fang in the south of the city and want to go out to get a soy sauce, it may take more than an hour to walk to Dongshi.
