The Tang dynasty was probably the period when the Silk Road was at its busiest. One important centre on the road was the city of Chang’an, where present –day Xi’an now stands. Chang’an was the capital city of this dynasty and by about 750 AD it had become a strong and successful capital of around two million people. Because of the chances for trade, a number of foreigners from bordering China lived in the city.
The market at that time in Chang’ an were perhaps the most exciting markets anywhere in the word. They sold goods from India, Africa, Japan, Korea, Turkey, Iran and other Arab countries and many items in the markets world would have been completely to some of the buyers. Interesting animals was sold together with exotic plants and strange medicines. Dried animals, dried foods and dried plants were laid out for sale next to rare seeds and spices.

I find it pleasant to be alone the greater part of the time; to be in company, even with the best, is soon tiresome and wasteful, and I never found a companion so companionable as solitude (独处).
We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad than when we stay in the meeting-rooms, for solitude is not measured by the miles of space between a man and his fellows.
The farmer, who can work alone all day without feeling lonesome, but must do something with others to get pleasure at night, wonders how the student can sit alone at night; he does not realize that the student, though in the house, is actually at work in his field and cutting his wood as the farmer was in his.
Society is commonly too cheap：We meet at very short intervals (间隔) ,not having had time to get any new value for each other; we meet at meals three times a day and give each other a new taste of that unpleasant old cheese; we live thick and are in each other’s way, and I think that we thus lose some respect for one another.
We have had to agree on a certain set of rules, called etiquette and politeness, to make this frequent meeting tolerable (可忍受的); certainly less frequency would be enough for all important and hearty communications between men.
It would be better if there were but one to live within a square mile, as where I live ,for as the value of a man is not in his skin, we need not touch him.
