Zeng Guofan's Family Feng Shui Video Lecture

Hello, everyone, and welcome to the secrets of Chinese studies. Last time, Zeng Guofan was the governor of Liangjiang River, which was very clean. It can be said that Zeng Guofan is a rare official in the history of China. However, Zeng Guofan, a decent official, is not the same as usual. Zeng Guofan's family is not poor. We said that Zeng Guofan's family was born in a small landlord, which we talked about earlier. There is only 100 mu of land at home, and there is no money. Zeng Guofan is an official and insists on not giving more money to his family every year. However, in Zeng Guofan's later years, the Zeng family in Xiangxiang still became a very rich family in Hunan.

Let's look at the land first. The land of Lao Zeng's family has increased from 100 mu to nearly 10,000 mu, which is already the level of big landlords. Secondly, let's look at housing. When Zeng Guofan was born, Lao Zeng's family had only one old house, which was an ordinary house of ordinary farmers. Like many farmers in Xiangxiang, Hunan, there is no difference. But by the time Zeng Guofan died, the Zeng family had already owned ten luxury houses.

This is the so-called ten halls of Zeng's family. Which ten halls? First of all, Zeng Guofan was born in this old house. After Zeng Guofan became an official, alas, his family invested and rebuilt twice. After reconstruction, it became a big house with three entrances and four horizontal directions. Zeng Guofan's father named him Bai Yutang. The second time was when Zeng Guofan was a kyou-kan. Their family built a house for Zeng Guofan at a distance from the old house, called Jinta. What about the third building? This is a mansion built by Zeng Guofan's younger brother Ceng Guoquan in his hometown, which is called Dafu House. This mansion is a real mansion. Although Bai Yutang and Huang Jintang are large in scale, they can't compare with each other. The scale of this mansion in Hunan Province is also one of the best, with a total construction area of 654.38+0.3 million square meters and 24 scenic spots.
