It is not for nothing that Wang Mang is called a "traverser". His series of reforms, such as sealing the Chan, sealing the seal, and changing the era name, seemed to be an attempt to restore the imperial system of the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, which was undoubtedly a subversion of the social system in the late Western Han Dynasty. His attempt to weaken the power of the Hao clan and strengthen the authority of the emperor is a breakthrough thinking reminiscent of a reformer who traveled through time and space.
Wang Mang's reforms, such as the equalization of land, the nationalization of land, and the prohibition of private land sales, may have seemed fanciful at the time, but they coincided with some of the policies that followed the founding of the People's Republic of China. This forward-looking vision makes him unique in history.
After usurping the throne, Wang Mang demonstrated a deep understanding and unique insights into the social system. The reform of the currency system and the official system, stipulating that all salt and iron should be owned by the government, and all mountains and rivers should be nationalized, all these measures showed his profound insight and forward-looking thinking about the social system.
However, despite the fact that Wang Mang's reform measures are so advanced and unique, we cannot simply identify him as a "time-traveler". His reforms may have been based on his own political ideas and understanding of the social situation, rather than on knowledge of the future. Therefore, we should look at this statement rationally and not easily believe nonsense. After all, the course of history is complex and changeable, and a great reformer may just happen to be ahead of the curve.
