For thousands of years, Almanac has been the best-selling book among the people in China. There is no sign of being eliminated by the times. Even after the founding of the Republic of China, under the impact of scientism, ordinary books continued to be published, which is indeed a big difference in the history of publishing. For example, Taiwan Province Province prints about five or six million yellow calendars every year. About two-thirds of almanac and general book in Taiwan Province Province are said to have been inherited from Jichengtang General Book written by Hong Chao and Fujian two hundred years ago. The source of Hong Kong's popularity is Shu Tong of Luo Chuanlie, the "Taoist Temple" in Guangdong.

Many modern people rely heavily on the Gregorian calendar. Scholars believe that the popularity of the Huangli calendar for thousands of years reflects the uncertainty of people's lives in China. This book contains many contents related to good or bad luck or life customs. Although it is an unpretentious and popular publication in every era, China people's belief in the idea of choosing good luck has long restricted many social activities (such as building sites, funeral celebrations and even election registration).

Therefore, the study of "Shu Tong" or "The Yellow Calendar" not only helps us to know more specifically the spread mode and influence of digital tricks in society, but also has a good opportunity to turn them into a key to understand ancient popular culture and daily life, which deserves more attention from academic circles and civil authorities.
