Jinghua Financial Street has been called jinchengfang since the Yuan Dynasty.
At that time, most of the JinFang and Yinhao merchants gathered here. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Hubu bank was also located here, which was later renamed Daqing bank.
It can be said that since ancient times, this is the center of the wealth vortex in Beijing, and the head office building of a bank is located at the leading position of the financial street.
However, from the perspective of geomantic omen, the head office of a bank is located at an oblique overpass, which is like empty water. It is an image of draining wealth. It is called "Overpass Sha". Moreover, the one facing the intersection in the northwest is also called "road Chong Sha".
It is said that in the early stage of financial street planning, several key areas have become the focus of attention and competition among major banking institutions, but few people pay attention to this piece of land as a leader.
The reason is very simple: the surrounding geographical environment is unfavorable and very angry. The adjacent intersection is a cross flow (or water does not cross the hall). There is no need to think about gathering money.
In addition, there is the overpass on the main road, which cuts off the foot and blocks the waist. The road can not be diverted, the bridge can not be rebuilt, and the knowledgeable people shake their heads secretly. Unfortunately, it is a good land.
However, the leader of the headquarters of a certain bank managed to overcome all opinions. Finally, an old gentleman who studied Feng Shui in the Forbidden City was invited to help him give advice and build a black building in imitation of the most noble quadruped tripod in the bronze ritual vessels of the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
The tripod ranks first among ancient ritual vessels and is the most valued type. It is said that the Yellow Emperor once cast three treasure tripods to symbolize heaven, earth and man.
Xia Yu also cast nine tripods, symbolizing Kyushu.
The color of the building is black, because black represents wealth (black belongs to water in the five elements, and water also represents wealth, so black has a strong power to urge wealth. Feng Shui also says that silver and red can attract wealth, and black can turn evil.)
Three flagpoles were erected in front of the door, but they were always light poles, representing the three incense sticks in front of the Baoding, respecting heaven and earth, ghosts and gods.
In front of the door behind the flagpole, there are two more than 6-meter-high sacred animals - Xi, in order to attract wealth, town and house, and turn evil into prosperous wealth.
It is said that he is the third son of Longsheng. He has a violent and upright temperament and has an excellent effect of guarding against wealth and evil spirits. If he is placed at the intersection, he can just prevent bad luck from being sucked into the building. His ass is facing the front door and his mouth is facing the West (the western economy is prosperous and can absorb the western economy.)
After the completion of Feng Shui layout, a certain line will turn over in the shortest time and become the leader of today's lines.
The story of the "rise" of the headquarters of a certain bank not only has a long history among the people, but also is regarded as a "classic" in officialdom. Although no one has spoken out, they all know it.
Feng Shui, as the most traditional culture in China for 5000 years, can not be erased by a few superstitions and feudal thoughts.
So when Li Yunhai patted the table and scolded a leader for believing in feudal superstition, old Pan Shi ran stood up and mentioned this "classic story" of a bank's headquarters.
Of course, Li Yunhai has heard of this story. In fact, he also believes it.
But I believe it's one thing in my heart, but what I say is another. I smiled calmly and said, "Oh, according to Lao pan, if we want to transform the old city, we have to invite those so-called feng shui masters to investigate it first?"
The so-called feng shui master, cut, do you think I didn't know that you rearranged the office layout when you first came to the king of Tang Dynasty, and used the Paperweight of a frontier official in the Qing Dynasty on your desk to increase prestige and deter colleagues?
Lao pan sneered in his heart and said in a colder tone, "Lao Li, you are new here. It seems that you don't know something. Lao Han (Lao Li's predecessor) and other leaders have long wanted to move the old city, but they have never dared to do it. That is because Mr. Pan Longyu once solemnly suggested that the old city should never act rashly -- as for why the old man said so, I think it is very clear in your heart that I won't say more here. "
When Lao pan mentioned Mr. Pan Longyu, his tone was a little proud: in the history of Lao Pan's family, it is true that there are treacherous officials like Pan Renmei, Millennial dissolute women like Pan Jinlian, but there are also world-renowned masters of Yi ology like Mr. Pan, and even masters in Hong Kong and Baodao are proud of his guidance.
As an official, Li Yunhai secretly believes in Chinese traditional culture, so he must have heard the name of Pan Longyu master.
Pan Long language -- according to folklore, master pan is yuan Tiangang in the Tang Empire and Liu Bowen in the Ming Empire. Watching celestial phenomena and geomantic omen is 500 years later. It is easy not to speak and must hit the mark. It is called the Dragon language.
After listening to Lao pan carrying out his "home" Mr. Pan Longyu, Li Yunhai was obviously stunned, picked up his water cup and slowly tasted tea.
Even if Lao pan relied on his old age to sell his old age, he would not embarrass Li Yunhai. Seeing that the leaders had nothing to say, he immediately smiled and smoked and changed the topic.
The temporary meeting ended in a peaceful atmosphere... Soon after returning to the office, Li Yunhai called director Wang of the office and said that he wanted to hear some folklore here and understand the culture of the king of Tang.
Those who can climb to the position of assistant director of the office are all masters who are better than monkeys. Of course, director Wang has heard about the temporary meeting and immediately realized what Tang King folklore Li Yunhai wants to hear.
It is said that during the early establishment of the Tang Empire, King Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty led his troops on an expedition to Koryo from Chang'an. After being stationed here for a period of time, he became a market (in modern terms, after hundreds of thousands of troops are stationed in a certain place for several months, it will certainly boost the local GDP. There are countless local residents around the clock to provide the army with needed goods).
This market is the embryonic form of Tang Wang City.
During Li Shimin's eastern expedition, Yuan Tiangang was with him.
One rainy afternoon, Li Shimin led his civil and military generals to climb the mountain, stood on the top of a mountain, looked north, looked at the endless great plain over there, and said with satisfaction that this place is really a treasure land of Feng Shui. In the future, if the country is stable, he will build a new city here.
Seeing the boss's interest is so high, the generals naturally agree with him and give advice for the future new town planning -- only yuan Tiangang has a dignified face, bends his fingers from time to time and looks to the northwest one after another.
Li Shimin found that the old Taoist was abnormal, so he asked if he saw anything?
Yuan Tiangang didn't answer immediately. He closed his eyes and pondered for a long time (it's natural for an expert to have the style of an expert. Even if the king of the Tang Dynasty is not ashamed to ask, he has to put on a good AIRS). Only then did he slowly say a sentence: urban construction will not move for ten thousand years, and if it moves, there will be disasters, starting from the northwest!
The meaning of Lao yuan's sentence is: it's just that there is no city here. Once a city is built, the city must remain unchanged for ten thousand years (the scale and pattern cannot be changed without authorization), otherwise there will be a disaster from the northwest.
After hearing what he said, Li Shimin was surprised and hurriedly asked the reason.
Lao Yuan said that this plain surrounded by mountains on three sides is the eye of a mysterious disaster in Northwest China. It has been formed thousands of years ago. The reason why the disaster has never had a chance to come to the world is that there is a dragon shaking here, always sleeping, not turning over, and the phoenix eye has not broken.
If you want to build a city, you must start construction and wake up the Earth Dragon -- when the Earth Dragon (earthquake) wakes up and turns over, the earth's crust will change and the wind eye of disaster leakage will be formed.
After Li Shimin understood, he said, well, no one is allowed to build a city here in the future.
Yuan Tiangang said with a bitter smile that it was too late.
Li Shimin was puzzled and asked why it was late?
Lao Yuan said, your majesty, you are the son of the real dragon. You have a lot of words. Since you said you would build a new city here, the earth dragon lying here has heard your words, it will look forward to it. In that way, it can enjoy the fireworks in the world. If you don't build a city, it will be angry, make a big noise and endanger the people in all directions.
Li Shimin was so stupid that he knew he was his majesty. Some words can't be said without thinking.
But what he said was like water thrown out and could not be taken back again, so Li Shimin asked Lao yuan to go out in person to lay out the layout of the new city that had to be built.
Lao yuan naturally had to obey his orders -- after more than ten days of Feng Shui investigation, he designed a new city for him.
In this way, there was a new town on the plain more than ten miles north of the capital of a vassal state.
During the Tang Dynasty, the king of Tang kept yuan Tiangang's words in mind and never changed the urban pattern without authorization. People lived and worked in peace and contentment for hundreds of years until the prosperous Tang dynasty fell and the world was in chaos.
The world has been in chaos. Who will remember yuan Tiangang's words hundreds of years ago?
In this way, until the mutiny of Zhao Kuangyin and Chen Qiao, the yellow robe was added, and the great Xia empire was established.
Now people know that although the military strength of the Xia Dynasty was weak, its economic development was indeed second to none in the world, and its population grew rapidly.
After the rapid growth of population, of course, the old city could not accommodate so many people. Naturally, it began to expand -- large-scale construction, which completely destroyed the Feng Shui pattern carefully laid by Yuan Tiangang at that time.
As a result, decades after the expansion of the king of the Tang Dynasty, the Earth Dragon turned over and people were killed and injured seriously.
After the Earth Dragon turned over, the eye of the earthquake was unblocked, and a disaster in the northwest was involved in the world, and then endangered the world.
In the history of China, there are many capable people. Not only yuan Tiangang can see that the place of King Tang is the eye of a disaster in Northwest China, but also many people, such as Liu Bowen in the Ming Dynasty.
After seeing the special Feng Shui pattern of the king of Tang Dynasty, Liu Bowen immediately told Zhu Yuanzhang about it.
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he suddenly realized: Oh, no wonder so many warriors died in the northwest in the previous dynasty. The original reason is here. Lao Liu, I didn't say anything. Please tell me what to do.
Liu Bowen has no other way, because the Earth Dragon has turned over and the eye of disaster has been formed. Disasters will come to the world every 12 years. Even if Lao Liu has great skills, he can only rearrange the layout and expand the number of years of disaster to 24 years.
That is to say, after the layout of Lao Liu, disaster is used to absorb the eye of Yang's essence, and its power is half weaker. It takes twenty-four years for disaster to accumulate and run out of chaos.
Moreover, every twenty-four years, the Ming Dynasty, like the previous dynasty, had to send a large number of warriors to the northwest to kill disasters and prevent disasters from setting foot in the Central Plains on the eve of disasters.
Finally, in the Beiyang Period, another feng shui master improved again on the basis of the Feng Shui pattern under Liu Bowen, which forced the number of years for the disaster to enter the WTO to be extended to 50 years until today.
Therefore, the previous leaders of King Tang were afraid of this legend, so they invited the world-famous feng shui master pan Longyu to investigate -- after several precise investigations, master pan determined this ancient legend.
Finally, he solemnly said that the old city can't move until he finds a way to let the disaster fall completely.
After listening to Director Wang's story, Li Yunhai remained silent for a long time.
