6 secret taboos of the ancient Chinese mandarin occupation

Bao bao is a fairly common profession in ancient China. The person who works for security is called the teacher. Their duty is to protect the property of traders. Due to inconvenient traffic, goods on the road are often robbed by thugs, directly threatening the safety of property and the lives of other travel agents. Since then, the guarantee business has been created to serve, ensuring the safety for business people.

Job security also has the same taboo as other professions. The concept of 'Six Worlds' or 'Six Worlds' (six taboos) in the world of scribes originated from the Kangxi era. These are the criteria of practicing the guarantee, in addition to creating the binding for the target, it is mainly to protect the safety of the target. In other words, these 6 taboos are the safety principles of the profession of guarantee.

So what do those six taboos include?

The first taboo, do not stay in an unfamiliar inn!

The practice of traveling on Gypsy, escorting money or people to other provinces, on the way inevitably having to find a room. The monks choose only the familiar old inns. Before going to the inn, the professor will meet the innkeeper, then check the terrain and check the front yard, backyard, check the floors, such as how many rooms, how high the wall, can be in some people , whether there is a secret room or not, whether there is a secret passage or not, whether there is a back door or not. After thorough investigation, the new master assured to enter the inn, shift shift, just a small movement can immediately act.

Many times back and forth, the target and these inns will become acquaintances.

But if it is a new hostel, the above sign says 'Great sand career' or 'Commercial forever Hung Long' then the target is absolutely not allowed. Because the new inns are difficult to guess, or trace the origin, do not know the background of the employees in it, do not know if they are planning anything.

The second taboo is not at the inns to change owners

The common trade is passing children through generations. Naturally, it is also inevitable that the case of business lodging failed to change the shop owner. But the vast majority, if there is no element of war or disaster, it is normal for an inn to last for decades.

An inn suddenly changed owners, said it was probably because the thief attacked, killed the old owner, and changed himself. This is a common occurrence in ancient times. Therefore, such hostels absolutely no choice.

The third taboo is not in the 'prostitutes' prostitutes', that is, inns with prostitutes

In ancient times, some inns included prostitutes, or some inns were originally opened by prostitutes. This type of inn should absolutely stay away. If staying in these inns, except to worry about the shady passersby, the monks also have to resist the temptation of prostitutes. Sometimes it may be a ploy of a bad person, if not careful, it will be lost.

The fourth thing, weapons are dissimilar things

In addition to the purpose of self-defense, the weapon also symbolizes the identity of a dart. Regardless of knives or swords, these weapons are with the mummies every day and become their friends. While in danger, these weapons become 'protectors' to save the killers. When faced with thieves on the road, usually the first target will use 'ceremony' to submit to them, not rush to use 'arms'. If the other person is willing to accept the money, say it out loud and they can be friends later. But if the opponent is a violent person, resolutely not to let the delegation pass, now the teacher must use 'arms'. Therefore, the weapon is an object of dissatisfaction.

The fifth taboo, the object is impossible to separate

Meals or sleep, the criteria have to take turns on duty.(Illustration).

Customers look to the target to request escorts to ensure safety for objects or people. Once the department has received the order, make sure that the person or item was delivered to the destination. On the transporter, whether it is waterway or land, the object cannot leave the target for a moment. Meals or sleep, the criteria have to take turns on duty. Because once distracted, the target will be stolen by thieves. If the object is lost, or the escorted person is injured or damaged, the bureau shall, in addition to compensation, be sued, the reputation may be lost or even dissolved.

The last taboo

Do not overlook any doubts. The criteria outside the requirements of high-strength martial arts, must also require keen eyesight, listening to the hexagonal eight directions. Just touching a blade of grass, they have to concentrate, just detect the question, immediately not be ignored. Accidental accidents occur often because the teacher disregards doubts or appears lazy.

Thus, it can be seen that the job of guaranteeing is not only a job of manual labor, but also requires intellectual labor. This is no easy task, and being a marshal is not an easy task.
