Capitalisation of numbers began in the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang issued a decree because of a major embezzlement case at the time, the Guo Huan case, in which he explicitly required that the numbers in the bookkeeping must be changed from "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 100, 1,000" to "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 100, 1,000", Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, ten, one hundred, one thousand" to "one, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, one hundred, one thousand" and other complex Chinese characters to increase the difficulty of altering the books. Later, the characters "陌" and "阡" were rewritten as "百、仟" and have been used until now.

The Origin of Numbers
The first tools humans used to count were their fingers and toes, but they could only represent numbers up to 20. When there were many numbers, most primitive people used small stones to keep count. Gradually, people invented the method of tying knots to keep count, or carving on animal skins, trees or stones to keep count. In ancient China, small sticks made of wood, bamboo or bone were used to keep track of numbers, which were called counting chips. These counting methods and symbols were slowly transformed into the earliest numerical symbols (digits). Today, Arabic numerals are used as the standard in countries around the world.
