镇最早是作为一种军事据点广泛出现于北魏时期,草市由定期的乡间集市发展而来。北宋时期,由于农业生产力的发展,赋税制度的变迁和商品经济的渗透,致使市镇有了较大发展,尤以两浙路突出。主要表现在:镇由军事性质转向经济性质;草市数量的增加和市镇经济的发展。同时,北宋两浙路市镇的发展具有不平衡性。 The town was first widely seen as a military stronghold during the Northern Wei Dynasty and the grass market developed from a regular rural market. During the Northern Song Dynasty, due to the development of agricultural productivity, the tax system and the infiltration of commodity economy led to the great development of towns and cities, especially the prominent Liangzhe Road. Mainly manifested in: the town by the military nature of the nature of the economy; the number of grass-covered cities and the economic development of the town. At the same time, the development of Liangzhe Road in the Northern Song Dynasty is imbalanced.
