The ancient pronunciation of "chan" is homophonic with "qian". In jade designs, a common sight is a golden toad with a coin in its mouth, which symbolizes wealth and prosperity. The golden toad is said to be the princess of the Dragon King. It can spit out money and has three legs. It is a spiritual animal. The ancients believed that it can make people rich and is a lucky animal that brings wealth. I wonder if you have ever heard of the legend "Liu Hai plays with the golden toad and catches money step by step"? In ancient times, there was a man named Liu Hai who practiced Taoism and used a trick to subdue the golden toad in order to become an immortal. Later, this story spread among the people and was talked about with great relish. It is said that Liu Hai was originally a disciple of Lu Dongbin. He had profound skills and, under the guidance of his master, he often traveled around the world, subduing demons and creating things for the people. One day, he saw that the golden toad was doing many evil things and often used its magic power to suck up treasures to defraud the people of a lot of money. So they devised a plan to subdue the golden toad, and the people became grateful to them. In the process of subduing the golden toad, due to the toad's cunningness, Liu Hai had no choice but to cut off one of its legs. So the golden toad only had three legs left and could no longer harm the human world. From then on, Jin Chan submitted to Liu Hai and became his disciple. In order to make up for the crimes he had committed before, Jin Chan decided to atone for his sins and benefit the world. So it used its unique skills to bite into gold and silver treasures, helping Liu Hai to help the poor and distribute money. People were very curious about it and started to call the golden toad "the toad that attracts wealth". The above is the beautiful meaning of the golden toad attracting money. In addition, the golden toad is also given other beautiful meanings. In "Winning the First Prize in the Moon Palace", people upgraded the image of the golden toad again. It is said that there is a three-legged toad in the Moon Palace. Due to its congenital defect, God has given it the advantage of natural intelligence. Therefore, later generations often use it to metaphorically pass the imperial examination. The Moon Palace is called the Moon Palace, and getting the golden toad means being able to pass the imperial examination. However, today, such palace items have also entered the homes of ordinary people. Not only can they be used as ornaments, but they can also be consecrated to ward off evil and attract wealth, which is quite innovative. People usually call toads golden toads. There is an old saying that "If you have a golden toad at home, you will have endless wealth", so most people like to hang a golden toad ornament on their chest or directly place such a golden toad at home, and wealth will come rolling in. The jade toad is exquisitely carved, delicate and skillful. In terms of the quality of the water, the sculptors are very thoughtful and generally choose greener materials to carve, so as to better highlight the power of the golden toad and restore its original color. We can see many styles of golden toads among the playthings. Generally, it is a three-legged toad sitting on a gold coin, carrying a string of money on its back, with a plump body, showing its wealth. It has the beautiful meaning of "spitting out treasures and making a fortune, and a steady flow of wealth", so there is a folk saying "Whoever gets the golden toad will be very rich". It can be placed in homes or shops, and it will surely bring prosperity and wealth. The placement of the jade toad is also very particular. Placing its head towards the door can help you attract wealth, and putting money on its tail means it can double your wealth. There is also a single one with a copper coin in its mouth, which is suitable for playing with or using as a pendant. fcgc66 fcpf18 |
