On the basis of Emperor Yan, the Yellow Emperor taught the people to sow grains. In agricultural production, the farmland system is implemented. Before the Yellow Emperor, there were endless fields and countless fertile fields. In order to prevent disputes, the Yellow Emperor divided the whole country into "wells", with a "public acre" in the middle belonging to the government and eight "private fields" around it. The harvest of "private fields" belongs to individuals, and "public acres" are planted by eight families, and the harvest is turned over to the government.
Another extremely important invention of the Yellow Emperor was the invention of the automobile. Legend has it that the Yellow Emperor built a car.
In ancient times, people lived and worked on two legs. If you go far away, you have to walk for a few days, and your feet are worn out. Carrying heavy objects can only be done by one's own strength.
One summer, the Yellow Emperor was working in the field when suddenly a strong wind blew his hat away. Because the brim is round, it rolls forward after landing. The Yellow Emperor hurried to catch up and picked up the straw hat. The rolling of straw hat inspired the Yellow Emperor. He thought, you can make a shelf and put a roller on it, so you can move things. The more Huang Di thought about it, the more excited he became. After returning home, he began to do what he thought, and constantly improved and perfected it, and finally succeeded. The minister of the Yellow Emperor said to the Yellow Emperor: I call this thing a car. The Yellow Emperor pondered for a long time and agreed.
In order to make people remember Xuanyuan's contribution forever, Cang Xie consulted with ministers; Name the car "Xuanyuan". The Yellow Emperor was named after Xuanyuan. The first thing that Huangdi designed and built a car was a trolley.
Later generations improved and innovated and invented a two-wheeled vehicle. In modern times, there are all kinds of means of transportation, such as cars. 1885 10, German karl friedrich Benz successfully developed the world's first three-wheeled car, and German Daimler invented the world's first four-wheeled car. Karl Benz is the founder of the famous German "Mercedes-Benz" automobile company and one of the founders of Daimler-Benz automobile company. Ben Ci and Daimler are recognized as the inventors of modern cars driven by internal combustion engines. Nowadays, people like to drive private cars more and more to enjoy a beautiful and comfortable life.
What are the historical records of the Yellow Emperor making cars? Sima Qian, the Taishi Duke, recorded in Historical Records: "The son of Shaodian, Huangdi, was named Gongsun Xuanyuan." In ancient times, the car with curtains was called Xuan, and the straight wood in front of it was called Yuan. Together, Xuanyuan refers to ancient cars.
"Han Shu" also records that "once in the Yellow Emperor, it was not good to travel by boat."
The Taiping Imperial Book compiled in the Northern Song Dynasty also said: "The Yellow Emperor made cars, hence the name Xuanyuan."
The Yellow Emperor made many achievements. For example, the Yellow Emperor demarcated wild areas and divided Xinjiang, with eight wells as one neighbor, three neighbors as one friend, three friends as one mile, five miles as one city, ten cities as the capital, ten divisions as one division and ten divisions as states. The whole country is divided into Kyushu.
When it comes to cars in ancient people's names, the most widely known is Su Xun's On Two Names, which explains the origin of Su Shi's and Su Zhe's names, so as to warn their two sons how to behave.
Stone, also known as "style". The ancient carriage was called Yu, and there was an opening at the back for people to get on. There were fences around it, and the wooden strips that passed through the left and right fences were called stones. It is an accessory on the car, which is not as important as the wheel, spokes and carriage itself, similar to today's seat belt. More often, it is used as a salute-giving, that is, when passengers meet someone who should salute, helping them look forward or down to show their respect. During the ceremony, the car should slow down or stop directly. There are many occasions. For example, in The Book of Rites Under the Bow of Tan, it is said that "Confucius crossed Mount Tai, and the woman mourned the grave, and the master listened to it", which triggered the discussion that "tyranny is fiercer than tiger"; After the cemetery or sacrifice, such as "Luz said: I have heard of it, passing the tomb is the style, and passing the sacrifice is the next"; After the sage lived, as recorded in Historical Records Wei Shijia, corporal Wei Wenhou was polite to Confucian disciples and Duan Ganmu, and treated him with courtesy. "If you are a guest, you can't fail." Meet the elderly, such as "gentleman yellow hair"; When you enter a community or village, you must enter the village. There is a story in Historical Records. In the Western Han Dynasty, Shi got drunk and didn't get off the bus in front of his community. He went straight in. When his father Shi Fen found out, he went on a hunger strike ... On these occasions, there was only "no chariot", explained Kong in the Tang Dynasty. Su Xun named his son "Shi" and said, "Shi Hu, I'm afraid you won't dress up", in order to make him behave and be honest, so as not to be conspicuous and sharp-edged.
Compared with "history", "Mo" is much gentler. Although cars all over the world have to follow it, it will not take credit, and it is no wonder that it is useless. If you are as calm as you are, you can "be a good person between good and bad." As Su Xun expected, the life trajectories of the two brothers are just like the meanings of the words "yes" and "mo". A word of advice and inspiration, although a sensation, almost lost his life. A self-serious, although not like his brother "hold the handle", but independent, avoid disaster.
In fact, in ancient times, there were many people named Mero, but its meaning had nothing to do with Su Xun's "stereotype". In ancient times, the door, like a stone, was also a part of the car-the part where the upper ends of the left and right baffles of the car turned out outward, shaped like the ears of the car, also known as "qi". During the Spring and Autumn Period, many nobles took the name of "Mo". The explanation of "Mo" in Shuowen Jiezi said: "The Spring and Autumn Biography said that Qin Gongzi was famous for his hearing." In addition, there are Wei Gongzi Mo, Zheng Gongzi Mo, Lumo, Lumo and so on. Among them, Zheng Gongzi Mozi II, Uncle Sun Mozi, Uncle Mozi, with ears outside, are shaped like Zhang, and names and words are synonyms and related.
The left and right baffles of ancient cars were called "Jiao" because one of them was on the left and the other was on the right. They turned outward and looked like the heads of two ears, also called "Zhong Er". The origin of Zhong Er, the name of Jin Wengong, one of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period, is puzzling to many people because it is not recorded in the official history. One is unclear about its pronunciation, and the other is unclear about its meaning. The popular saying is that according to the concept of "the monarch and the minister are in the same phase", it is believed that all monarchs and nobles have physiological characteristics different from ordinary people, such as "double ears and shoulders", "red eyes", "hands over knees" and "six feet long beard". "History of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty" says that "Zhong Er has a heavy pupil and looks different", and adopts the theory of "heavy pupil", that is, Jin Wengong has two pupils in each eye, which was once called "heavy pupil", which is not pleasant to listen to, and was changed to Zhong Er; "You Xue Qiong Lin" said that "he is the king of Jin" and adopted the theory of "parallel prose", which means that his ribs grow together, which is not as obvious as every one of ordinary people. Its basis may come from the record of twenty-three years in Zuo Zhuan: fleeing to Cao * * *. Want to see naked. Take a shower, be thin, and watch. "Think this is a shame, when he became the king of Jin, he sent troops to destroy Cao. Others think that his earlobe is big, or there is a piece of fat on his ear, which means that his ears are big and blessed.
Jin Wengong's name is related to automobile culture. Automobile is one of the greatest inventions of mankind, which is closely related to the civilization of human society. In societies where cars were not invented, such as Indians, Australian aborigines and some tribes in Africa, they have always been in primitive societies. In the pre-Qin period, cars, as an important civilized object, had a set of complicated etiquette, which penetrated into all aspects of life, so it was a fashion for many nobles to name cars. As mentioned above, there are many noble names similar to Zhong Er, so it is more reasonable to explain Jin Wengong's name with automobile culture.
There was a famous soldier in Zhong Er named Qiu, who made outstanding achievements in the battles of Chengpu and Kan. His name was also related to cars. Because it is the underframe of the carriage. In the name of Qi, there are also militarists in the Warring States period, militarists (this idiom comes from gilding the lily and stabbing the tiger in the border village), Lu You's great-grandfather in the Song Dynasty, and so on.
Zhong You (Zi), a student of Confucius, has the same meaning as Su Zhe's "doing something", that is, the front car should do something, the rear car should do something, and the rear car should be related to the road. Mencius' names, Yuzi and Ziche, are obviously also related to cars. Shuo Wen Jie Zi said: "The tong connected with the axle is also a car." Tong and Yu are both parts of a car. In the name of Ke, there is also the famous assassin Jing Ke. In addition, the crossbar at the front end of the shaft is called "horizontal", such as Lu Gongzi horizontal and Zhang horizontal in Han Dynasty. The holster around the horse's neck with a carriage is called "martingale", such as Qin, Lu Shuyang and Jin Fanyang (Fan Xianzi). People walk in the Tao with their hands tied, that is, driving a horse, such as Lu Shu's name; Qi Bu Shu Cheng, Zi Zi Che, etc.
The profoundness of Chinese characters has created a long history of China's name culture, which is interesting after careful scrutiny.
