Fortune-telling encyclopedia in Qing dynasty
In the history of our country, many people will remain immortal for various reasons. Today, we will talk about Yu Chenglong, a famous minister in Shanxi. He started his official career at the age of 44, and 1' s job is to be a magistrate of Luocheng County. Yu Chenglong's hometown is in Shaanxi, and Luocheng County is in Guangxi, which is more than 3,000 kilometers apart. Moreover, Luocheng County is a very backward small county with poor natural environment and so far away from home. At that time, many people advised Yu Chenglong not to go. After all, Yu Chenglong was not young at that time, and there was no need to work so far away.
But Yu Chenglong insisted on going, he said? However, because the country and life are officials, why choose risk and comfort? . So he started his career. It's a long way from Shanxi's hometown to Guangxi, and the means of transportation is donkey. Later, I finally arrived in Luocheng County, only to find that the real Luocheng County was worse than I expected. There is nothing in the county government except a broken house, a broken table and an earthen stove. To make matters worse, there are only six families in this county. But Yu Chenglong didn't care much. He is very active in dealing with all kinds of things, doing research everywhere, calling on people who go out to return to their hometowns to farm and setting up a reward system. Three years have passed in an instant, and Luocheng County is not what it used to be.
It took Yu Chenglong seven years to build Luocheng County into a brand-new place, and the local people were grateful to him. Later, due to his outstanding performance, Yu Chenglong was appointed as the magistrate of Hezhou, Sichuan. When he went to work in Hezhou, Sichuan, a blind fellow villager made money for him by fortune telling. Yu Chenglong is a very honest man. Where is Yu? Later, he passed away at the age of 67. Even Emperor Kangxi said that he was the first upright official in the world and the first upright official in the world.
