Nationally, the purchase of "living human tombs" is increasing. "In traditional Feng Shui culture, good Feng Shui requires the right time and place. After all, there are only a few locations that can gather this kind of optimized combination. Such tombs will increase in value and may increase in price, so some people are willing to pay a high price and start early."
"According to the requirements of the Civil Affairs Bureau, the purchase of a cemetery must rely on a corpse cremation certificate. If these certificates are incomplete, the cemetery will not sell the tomb. In addition, in order to ensure the implementation of this system, the Civil Affairs Department also implements an annual inspection system, and the cemetery will be inspected every year The company's sales files will be reviewed, and if violations are found, it will be required to suspend business for rectification, or even revoke its sales qualification for the second year. "If management is standardized, there will be no "living graves." "Living graves" mainly exist in some irregular or illegal cemeteries.
"Living tombs" are mostly found in family tombs that are packaged and purchased
Four cemeteries advertise for sale on the Internet. Among them, the sales staff of Jinan Shuangfengshan Cemetery and Shandong Fushouyuan Cemetery made it clear that in accordance with the regulations of the Civil Affairs Bureau, citizens can only purchase one tomb in addition to the one-time purchase of up to two husband and wife tombs with relevant certificates, and "will not Sell ??the tomb to someone who is still alive."
However, some cemetery sales staff said that they can accept people buying family-style tombs in packages. "Many customers hope that their families will be together a hundred years from now. This request is understandable, so we have no reason to refuse to sell them tombs," said a salesperson from one of the cemeteries. According to analysis by industry insiders, most of the "living tombs" known to the Jinan market appear in such packaged tombs. "Obviously, the more tombs purchased at one time, the greater the possibility of 'living tombs' appearing. ”
