The social hierarchy of China was divided into 3 groups:

The highest of these were the landowning aristocracy plus the educated bureaucrats or Mandarins. Next came the laboring masses: peasants and also urban aristians who manufactured goods. These were the groups of people who preformed hard manual labor. And last were the 'mean people' this cateogory was reserved for those who were though to have unmeaningful skills. Preforming artist were also put into this group as also were household slaves.
