The story of Wang the Peddler tells us quite a lot about daily life in Han times, in both the city and in the country.
Here is what we found about daily life in the story of Wang the Peddler:
long carrying pole
bamboo baskets swinging at both ends
charcoal
wooden comb
copying imperial fashion (by wanting an imperial style comb)
city gates
string of cash
decorated city, with banners
balconies
leather slippers
fur coat to purchase
only one bow. Did good manners dictate more? Probably.
mirror - unknown in the remote areas of the countryside, but possibly new to this time
