Sichuan ancient city fengshui video daquan
Langzhong Ancient City is located in Nanchong City, Sichuan Province, surrounded by water on three sides, with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate. Langzhong ancient city is a place with outstanding people and rich products.
In the Qing Dynasty, Langzhong became an important water transport terminal. There were an endless stream of merchant ships coming and going on the Jialing River, and merchants gathered in front of Huaguang Building. The ancient city experienced unprecedented prosperity.
In summer and autumn, the continuous rainstorm always inundates the Jialing River, which not only affects the water shipping trade, but also harms the streets and houses around the ancient city. In A.D. 1806, Li served as the "North Sichuan Road" in Langzhong. As the local chief executive, it is the most important thing to solve the flood problem and let the people in Langzhong live and work in peace and contentment.
In fact, there are many dams built in Langzhong, which have existed in all dynasties. According to historical records, Li built a dam at that time. Because at that time, the river swallowed up the city, the sand below became loose, the river bank was gradually eroded and could collapse at any time, and the river gradually threatened the people in the city.
It is better to drain the flood than to block it. How to use the potential of nature is the key. Every day, Li went to the river to watch the water potential, and found that the fish went upstream on the Jialing River, drawing a series of water marks. Inspired by this, he decided to build a dam in the shape of fish scales to reduce the impact of the river.
Li, Xu Shuanggui, the magistrate of Baoning, and Li, the magistrate of Langzhong, took the lead in donating Lian Yin, and also raised funds from local wealthy businessmen to build dams. On the basis of building the original river bank, in order to prevent the river from directly scouring the city, he also built stone towers, piers and chambers outside the river bank to kill the water potential. The so-called water-killing potential, like a diversion dike, is to prevent the river from rushing directly to the dike.
By the way, briefly introduce Yanglianyin. Yanglianyin was a special official salary system in China in Qing Dynasty. It was established in the first year of Yongzheng, Sejong, Qing Dynasty (1723). The original intention is to cultivate the habit of encouraging officials to be honest and avoid corruption, so it is named "Yanglianyin". As for the effect, it is hard to say. According to a rough survey, the annual income of the magistrate and county magistrate is about 1000 Liang.
With everyone's efforts, the dam was completed in a few months. Because the newly-built diversion levee looks like a fin on the back of a fish, the locals call it "shark's fin". "Shark's fin" runs east to the south of the city, north to Yutai Mountain, and surrounds Langzhong City. Jialing River became the moat of the ancient city, and the flood for many years was finally solved.
After hundreds of years of baptism, until now, this "shark fin" project is still benefiting one side of the people. The diversion dike not only plays the role of water diversion, but also extends to the river side step by step, which also facilitates water transportation and plays the role of a water transportation terminal for berthing ships and starting goods. The river bank is built in a cascade shape, which is convenient for residents of the ancient city to take water and wash along the river bank.
The construction of "shark's fin" restored the harmony and tranquility of the ancient city, and the unruly Jialing River was docile from then on.
