is a household name, and it is known to all women and children.
the so-called "36 lines" refers to the trades of all walks of life, that is, the types of jobs in society. As the saying goes,
: "Knock gongs to sell sugar, and do your own thing". About the industry, there have been 36 lines of records since the Tang Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, Zhou Hui
wrote in Qingbo Magazine, there were pork shops, seafood shops, sauce shops, flowers and fruits shops, fresh fish shops, palace powder shops, ready-made clothes shops
, medicine shops, tie shops, coffins shops, old shops, pottery shops, funeral shops, drum music shops, variety shops and leather shops.
how to develop from 36 lines to "36 lines"? According to Xu Ke's "Clearing Banknotes, Agriculture and Commerce", "Thirty < P > Six Travellers, all kinds of occupations. As far as its division of labor is concerned, it is 36 lines; Times, then seventy-two lines; Ten is three
one hundred and sixty lines. " It can be seen that "36 lines" is only an approximate number. In fact, since ancient times, there have been more than < P > "36 lines" and more than 3,6 lines. However, "36 lines" is only a general number, and the "36 lines" circulated by the people are a general term. It has become a natural habit for many years, and it is convenient to say and pleasant to hear. Therefore, at present, it is still generally called "36 lines" when it comes to industries.
In addition, 36 lines are the general names of the major social industries in China in the Tang Dynasty, reflecting the division of labor of social industries at that time. Line 36
extends the industry classification theory of 72 lines or 36 lines commonly used in China.
the exposition of the thirty-six lines can be found in Zhou Hui's Qing Bo Zalu in the Song Dynasty. Xu Ke said
in "Clearing Banknotes, Agriculture and Business": "Thirty-six walkers, all kinds of occupations. As far as the division of labor is concerned, it is 36 lines, 72 lines for times and 36 lines for ten. " It can be seen that the 36 lines are only imaginary indexes, but they are not specific figures.

. After his death, he was revered by the people and praised by the imperial court. He was regarded as Guan Shengdi, and Buddhism called Galand Bodhisattva. Later, he was revered as a "warrior sage", just like Confucius with the nickname "Wen Sheng". Since ancient times, people have worshipped him very much. Guan Gong Temple looks all over the world, and five continents burn incense everywhere. According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 3, Guandi temples in more than 3 countries and regions in the world, and there are more than 1, Guandi temples in Japan and Malaysia alone. In 1999, Madagascar issued a large number of stamps depicting Guan Gong. In 2, India was still building a large-scale Guan Gong Park. This top-down and widespread worship of Guan Yu at home and abroad has distinct nationality and extremely rich cultural connotation. It expresses people's desire for heroes and reveals people's feelings of longing for loyalty. Guan Yu is also worshipped by business people, such as pawnbroker, fortune teller, candle industry, sericulture, silk weaving industry and pastry industry, all of whom regard Guan Yu as their ancestors.
In addition to Guan Gong, there are many historical figures in our country who are regarded as the founders of the industry by later generations. The worship of ancestors in the industry is a branch of folk culture, which was attached great importance to by all industries in the past and regarded as the patron saint of the industry. There is a folk saying that "there are 36 lines, and no ancestors can stand." Grandfathers are very prestigious people, who directly or indirectly created and supported this industry. Some people became grandfathers by accident, some were forcibly installed by later generations, and some industries used a grandfather, just like Guan Yu mentioned above. Others have several grandfathers in one industry, such as Guan Zhong, Chi You, Zhang Fei, Yan Di and Lu Ban in salt industry.
