| In 1689,the plenipotentiary envoy of the Qing government,soretu,and the plenipotentiary envoy of the Russian Empire,Golovin,signed the Sino Russian Treaty of nebuchadu in nebuchadu(now Russia’s niercensk).The Treaty of nibchu stipulates that Russia has the right to conduct regular trade with China.Under such a historical background,a great role is quietly born.It is the road of tea,which has been active in the historical stage for 200 years.The road of tea,which started with the Treaty of nebucho,is obviously great.It has opened a new history.The existence of Tea Road determined the spread of Russian Empire’s expanding power and promoted the Qing government from closing to opening the border trade.Since then,the economic and cultural integration between the two countries is closely related to tea trade.During the two hundred years from the beginning to the decline of Tea Road,it has developed into a large-scale commercial interchange mode with tea as the main commodity in its heyday.During this period,the ticket companies were incisive.The Qing government and the Russian government had a relatively mature management system.The commodity trading must be strictly guarded according to the regular procedures and border checkpoints.Obviously,the road of tea was very mature in the heyday.Then how did Chinese tea transport to Russia,and how did Russian goods flow into China? The commodity trade between the Qing Dynasty and Russia was inseparable from the vast grassland connecting the two countries from the beginning to the decline.Most of the trade between the two countries was completed on the grassland.The merchants of the Qing Dynasty in Mongolia started commercial activities between the mainland and the grassland areas by virtue of their unique geographical location.The life needs and religiousactivities in the grassland area also promoted the development of Commerce and trade with the mainland.Such exchanges eventually developed into a great commercial road to the Russian region.During the Qing Dynasty,there were a lot of religious activities in the northern Mongols,and the merchants in the Central Plains often sold goods in places where religious activities were frequent.Therefore,the tea road has an inseparable relationship with the temple buildings in the grassland area.In addition to Temple relics,there are also Posthouse,road relics,inscriptions,stone carvings and so on.Grassland Tea Road in China is an important bridge between China and Russia.The commercial activities between the Central Plains and the grasslands have resulted in the commercial collision between China and Russia.Since then,they have made a brilliant history on the historical stage.This great business road also gave birth to the characteristic city of Qiaktu on the road of tea and the success of trading.In the heyday of chaktu and the shopping city,there was a lively scene like going to the river during the Qingming Dynasty.The two cities have also become a symbol of this history. |
