Feng Shui master Xu Shaofeng commented on where the rice jar should be placed.

The food structure of China people is mainly composed of carbohydrates and chlorophyll. That is to say, grains, vegetables and fruits are the main food, while meat and eggs are less. Therefore, the physique and quality of orientals are different from those of westerners. Even in China, there are differences between northerners and southerners. Northerners like to eat pasta, while southerners like to eat rice, so every family has rice jars and cupboards (jars) to store food. In addition, China people have the habit of "accumulating grain widely", so they attach great importance to the storage location of rice jars and noodle cabinets. According to the traditional geomantic theory, "the rice bin (rice jar) is the place where the valley is hidden, and the five elements belong to the soil, so it is profitable to declare the building (house) in the soil no matter where you sit. And you can't put it in the house ... "According to the eight diagrams principle of the Book of Changes, the north is divination, the five elements belong to water, the east is divination, and the five elements belong to wood; The west is divination, and the five elements belong to gold; The south is divination, and the five elements belong to fire; The northwest is dry divination, and the five elements belong to gold; The southeast is stubborn, and the five elements belong to wood; The northeast is divination, and the five elements belong to soil; The southwest is Kun Gua, and the five elements belong to the earth. So the ancients used to store rice and flour in the northeast and southwest of the house. Taboos are placed in the east and southeast. Xu Shaofeng, a Philippine Feng Shui master, believes that the northeast and southwest of the house have less sunshine and little temperature change, which is very suitable for storing rice tanks and cabinets. Especially in the northeast, it is more suitable. There is more sunshine in the east and southeast, the temperature is relatively high and the temperature difference changes greatly, so these two directions are not suitable for grain storage.
