He is well read, especially proficient in music, and can clearly distinguish melody. Later, he became the originator of the trumpet player industry.
Another example is Li Shaoweng, the originator of shadow play. There is a beautiful legend about him. Because Li Furen, the beloved princess of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, died of illness, Li Shaoweng came up with a way to alleviate the pain of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. This method is to project a doll, cut it into a portrait of Li Furen with cotton cloth, tie wooden poles on hands and feet, and then show it to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at night. Later, I really won the Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty.
The ancestor of China opera-Tang Huang Ming, emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He is proficient in all kinds of musical instruments, obsessed with music and has his own unique views on music. Later, he made a great reform in the music of the Tang Dynasty, and also opened a music school similar to ours now, and trained a group of opera artists. Liu Bowen, the originator of fortune-telling, was called Zhuge Wuhou by later generations because of his mastery of the art of war. Guiguzi, the ancestor of divination, is one of the pre-Qin philosophers, especially proficient in strategy and prediction, so he is also known as the fairy in divination. Of course, Guo Pu, who is proficient in Feng Shui, is the originator of Feng Shui in China.
Dong Fangshuo, the originator of the phonograph industry, was a native of Huimin, Shandong Province, and was an ancient scholar during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He was humorous and talented since he was a child, and he was deeply liked by his superiors. At the same time, he also composed 12 Dong Fangshuo, known as a comedian, and became the originator of the phonograph industry. Magic master Lv Dongbin is a Taoist immortal. It is said that he cultivated immortals in the immortal cave, but this is only a legend. Later, he abandoned his official position and lived in seclusion in Zhong Nanshan, traveling and preaching along the way. But China still has such an industry, which is hated by most people. Its grandmaster generation is absolutely unexpected. What industry is it?
Whom the brothel worships is unexpected.
That's a brothel. The word brothel was originally used to refer to luxurious and exquisite elegant houses, and later to refer to brothels. The status of ancient women was very low, and they all had to follow the "three obedience and four virtues", even making public appearances became a sin. In ancient times, men were different. Men can have three wives and four concubines, go to brothels aboveboard and spend a lot of time in this place. Although brothels are not a very bright place, there are ancestors to worship, and surprisingly, many people don't know. So who is it?
This man is Guan Zhong. Guan Zhong was a famous strategist, politician and thinker in China during the Spring and Autumn Period. He was also called the guardian of Chinese civilization by Confucius. Why is such a great figure considered as a granddaddy by a brothel? This is really puzzling. Guan Zhong is also a very powerful figure in history. He was the first tyrant in the Spring and Autumn Period. At that time, he was the prime minister of Qi, and his main task was to assist. At that time, if you want to show your strength in front of others, you can only go through war, but the price of war is heavy. Even the state of Qi was almost not recovered, so the state treasury was almost gone, and many people lost money. In this case, Guan Zhong invented the brothel industry and set up a brothel in Qi State, which was approved. At that time, the service staff in brothels were mostly female prisoners and slaves. Many of these women don't want to, but there is no way to get rid of them.
With this place, businessmen from all over the country are willing to do business in Qi, and some have settled in Qi Guoan, which is of great benefit to Qi. Later, Qi also collected taxes from brothels, which greatly enriched the national treasury and solved the economic crisis of Qi. This has also solved the demand that some men can't marry because of the war, and the society has thus stabilized a lot. So in this way, Guan Zhong established the first brothel in the history of China, and naturally became the founder of the brothel industry.
