Abstract

The early period of Western Zhou Dynasty witnessed the germination of commerce in Luoyi. After the Emperor Ping moved the capital to Luoyi, the city, as the capital of Zhou Royal Family, it played a vital role in politics inCentral Plains and the role of business had been promoted greatly. By Warring States Period, Zhou Royal Family continued fading while Luoyi declined politically as well. Zhou People took advantage of Luoyi’s favorable geological position and the unique special status of the dynasty to revitalize the capital via business and commerce. Thereby, Luoyi maintained the position of national business center and some economic departments developed even faster. On the whole, in the Pre-Qin Period, the political status of Luoyi continued to decline gradually while it played an increasingly important role in businesses. Through investigating the business development history in Luoyi in Pre-Qin period, a case study is provided to study China’s early business development.
