Summary of Wangxing Building in Shu Tong

During the Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty, Li and Zhou Wang of Chunan West Road laid down the car pond shop in Erli, from Shunda dignitaries to agriculture, industry and commerce, and compiled a book "Wangxing Building" to guide folk production and life. This book follows the imperial calendar and uses the most scientific arc angle algorithm at that time to calculate the occurrence time of 24 solar terms, solar eclipses and lunar eclipses in China. According to the five directions of southeast, northwest and central China and the changes of the sun, the moon and the stars, and compared with the five colors of blue, red, black and bright, it is predicted when there is water shortage and drought, when there is heavy rain and when to avoid things. Because the calculation is accurate, it meets the actual needs of the society at that time. "Once, Luoyang paper was expensive, Yungui and Minjiang River were regarded as the standard." People in some areas praised the author as a "semi-immortal", and Wei Guangtao, governor of the two rivers in the Qing Dynasty, and Feng Tianzhu, counselor of the Nanjing Executive Yuan in the Republic of China, praised him separately. After 100 years, Shu Tong was awarded the intangible cultural heritage by Longhui County in 2009.
