Qian's origin
The origin of Qian surname is really related to money. According to legend, Qian's surname is derived from the official name "Staff Sergeant Qianfu" who is in charge of money. "A Brief History of Clans" records: "Zhuan Xu's great-grandson Lu was born in Peng Zu, and Peng Zu's grandson is a sergeant of the family, and the official is the prefect." Therefore, this official position originated from the Zhou Dynasty, but it was only responsible for the management and scheduling of money. Fu, the son of Peng Zu, took the official name as his surname when he acceded to the throne, and from then on he got the surname Qian. Later, his descendants followed the name, and his surname was Qian. From the source of Qian surname, Qian surname is differentiated from Peng surname, and it is the same clan as Peng surname. Qian's surname and Peng's surname often consider themselves a family, and there was an agreement that they would share weal and woe and not marry each other. In fact, Qian's ancestral home is Xiapi (now Jiangsu), which is not the same as Peng's birthplace Pengcheng (now Xuzhou, Jiangsu). However, people surnamed Qian have always regarded Pengcheng as a county hope, and the reason is precisely because they are of the same origin as Peng. The earliest people who lived in Xiapi area were called Qian. Xiapi is located near Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province. Xuzhou was called Pengcheng in ancient times. The distance between Xiapi and Pengcheng is very close, which proves the close relationship between money and Pengcheng to some extent. Later, Qian gradually moved south and spread to various areas south of the Yangtze River. Today, there are still many Qian families in Jiangnan, Wujin and other places. Guangdong, Fujian, and even many overseas Chinese gathering places are also distributed to a certain extent. The surname Qian comes from the official name, and it does have the origin of money. "Money" is a surname, so it really has something to do with money. "Tongzhi Genealogy" records: "Zhuan Xu's great-grandson Lu was born in Peng Zu, and Peng Zu's grandson Fu is a sergeant of the family, and the official is the highest." Qian Fu, a sergeant in the Zhou Dynasty, was an official name, specializing in the coins of the imperial court. Therefore, a descendant of Emperor Zhuan Xu, named Fu, became an official and simply took the official name as his surname. This is the origin of Qian's surname, which also shows that the reason why people surnamed Qian are surnamed Qian is really related to money. According to this record in Tongzhi, later generations can also find such a source: Originally, the ancestor surnamed Qian was the direct grandson of Peng Zu, and Qian and Peng Yuan were a family, so these two surnames were not allowed to get married in some places. People surnamed Qian first lived in Xiapi area, which was near Xuzhou, Jiangsu. Xuzhou, known as Pengcheng in ancient times, is very close to each other, which provides a powerful explanation for the close relationship between Qian and Peng. However, people surnamed Qian gradually moved south, so there are still many people surnamed Qian in Xing Wu and Wujin in the south of the Yangtze River today. In history, although people surnamed Qian never played a vigorous role in politics, they were literati and talented people, completely different from their surnames. Qian Dan and Qian Chan first appeared in history books. They all came from the Warring States period. Qian Dan was a famous hermit, and Qian Chan was an ancient adviser to Qin. During the reign of Tang Tianbao, Qian Qi, a talented person, was born in Qianjia, Xing Wu, Jiangsu Province, and was once known as one of the "Top Ten Talents in Dali". Qian Qi is well-read and his poems are particularly good. The sentence "When the song ends, the mountains and rivers are green" is considered by the examiner as a help. It has been widely known for many years. In the political arena of the past dynasties, although people surnamed Qian never played a major role, in the Five Dynasties, there was a very prominent figure, that is, Qian Liu, the founder of wuyue at that time. He is from Hangzhou, Zhejiang, and his capital is in Hangzhou. Qian Liu is a legendary figure, and there are many legends about him among the people in the south of the Yangtze River: he said that he knew from an early age to train everyone to practice by playing with children; When I grew up, I didn't do my job properly and sold salt as a thief, but I was surprised by the fortune teller as a "true noble". As expected, his success is extraordinary. Not only can he become the master of one party in the war-torn era, but his descendants, also the fourth generation, served as our ambassadors in the Tang Dynasty, which is really remarkable. Qian Yi: Northern Song Dynasty physician, well-read, familiar with materia medica, especially pediatrics. Qian Daxin, a famous scholar in Qing Dynasty, is good at writing, phonology and exegesis, and has written Twenty-two History, Tang Ji of Yan Qian, Ten New Records of Yang Zhai, etc. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, there were famous ministers Qian Chan and Qian Lin.
