Which spring is Shengquan?

Water is the source of people, people are the source of literature, literature is the source of everything, and springs are the source of Jinan.

Visiting the Spring

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day is approaching. The autumn air is crisp and the springs are gushing. This is the most beautiful time in Jinan. Citizens and tourists come close to the spring, observe, listen to, taste and chant the spring. Their body and mind are integrated with the spring, and they are shocked by the charm of the spring.

The first choice to see the spring is Baotu. "The source of the spring is rising, and the water surges like a wheel." The laughter harmonizes with the sound of the spring. In a teahouse beside the spring, Zhang Renfeng, a retired elderly man in his sixties from Licheng District, was enjoying his tea and watching the spring. "Drinking a pot of spring water tea, your heart seems to have been washed by the spring. The clarity, leisurely and tranquility are really wonderful." He said.

Look at the adjacent springs in Baotu, which are full of joy. Jinxian Spring, Shuyu Spring, Liuxu Spring, Mapao Spring, Wuyou Spring and other springs compete for enchantment. Beside the Golden Thread Spring, the "golden thread" reappears: two springs at the bottom of the spring are facing each other, intersecting on the surface of the spring, and the gathered water lines form a flickering, sparkling golden thread under the sunlight.

Moving north from Baotu Spring into Wulongtan Park, you can see weeping poplar trees and greenery, and numerous springs are hidden among them. The crescent moon spring water gushes out from the rocks, forming a natural waterfall; the Tianjing Spring is blue to the bottom, and the blue sky and white clouds are reflected in the water, and the fish in the water seem to be flying in the sky; the Wulong Pond is blue water, with indigo moss, and is particularly quiet. If you are in the pond As you clap your hands, swarms of red, black, and brown fish will suddenly swim towards you, causing the water in the pond to glow with a colorful halo.

Black Tiger Spring and Pearl Spring are dynamic and quiet, complementing each other. The Black Tiger Spring gushes like a gush and pours down suddenly, making a sound like a roaring tiger; the Pearl Spring gathers and disperses, breaks and continues, lingering and lingering. In the Pearl Spring Group, there are many springs in alleys and residents' homes, such as Furong Spring, Zhiyu Spring, Yunlou Spring, Hui Spring, Liu's Spring, etc. Walking into Wangfuchi Street, you can see Zhuoying Spring (Wangfuchi) lying like a mirror in an antique residential area. The spring water gathers beside the pool, gurgling and flows into an antique-style dome door; the bluestone inside the door The small streets are immersed in water, and the "clear spring stone flows upstream", just like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

“In the west there is Baotu as the leader, and in the east there are hundreds of veins as the crown.” Driving to the Baimai Spring, I saw the spring water gushing straight up, jade beads stringing together, the Baimai Spring boiling, and the spring water flowing into the Mingshui Lake along the stone canal. Boating with a few tourists in the middle of the lake, the color of the water and the light of the sky are refreshing.

A tourist said that Jinan is closely related to springs. Now that I have come to Jinan, I feel the attachment of Jinan people to springs. Ren Xiaorui, director of the marketing department of Jinan Municipal Tourism Bureau, said that the spring water has become a symbol of Jinan's city, and Jinan people love the spring sincerely.

Xiquan

Jinan spring water is like the blood of this ancient city. The spring has accompanied the city through the years; the residents who grew up drinking the spring water and listening to the sound of the spring We take great care of the spring water, loving and cherishing it from generation to generation.

For Liu Runying, who lives at No. 235 Minghu Road, the most rare thing in his life is the nameless spring in his yard. When he was dying, he told his children over and over again that they must protect their home. That spring. His son is still very excited when he talks about the old man's feelings for Quan. He said that "Old Jinan" all know that Sijia Wharf was the largest wharf in Daming Lake back then. The spring in our home has a history of hundreds of years. Until the liberation, the surrounding residents went there to get water. This spring has become an heirloom of our family and we have been protecting it like a treasure.

The 67-year-old Zhang Zongxiang once rode a bicycle to visit more than 600 large and small springs in the suburbs of Jinan cities and counties in four years, and took more than 700 photos. He told reporters that he loved the spring so much and was afraid that the spring water would disappear, so he came up with the idea of ??recording the spring water with a camera. At first, because of his age, his family did not agree with him doing such a hard and tiring job, but he recognized it. With this in mind, he set out on the road alone. It is not easy to take photos of springs. It takes more than a week to go to Pingyin and Zhangqiu to take photos of springs, which is hundreds of kilometers away. Once when I went to Zhangqiu to take pictures, I just climbed a hillside. I was so hungry and tired that I fell to the ground as soon as my eyes went dark. I almost lost my life. But I was very happy when I saw that the camera in my arms was not broken. .

Yin Zhengyun is a middle school teacher. A few years ago, she watched the spring water stop flowing, and she felt extremely anxious. With the support of the principal, she resolutely opened a "green education" to educate students to love the spring water. Protect the spring. Citizen Yan Tielu saw that the spring water was broken, so he picked up scissors and used paper-cutting to cut out Baotu Spring, Black Tiger Spring, etc., to keep the beautiful spring water in his heart.

Han Xiao, a student of Yuying Middle School, wrote to Jinan Mayor Bao Zhiqiang to offer suggestions for water conservation and spring preservation in Jinan...

Exploring the Spring

On the night of September 27, " "Spring Water Forum" was held at the bank of Baotu Spring. With fresh breeze, clear spring and clear tea, citizens and experts asked questions and talked about the spring.

Citizens asked: Is the spring here quite old?

Rong Bin, vice president of Jinan Academy of Social Sciences, said: As early as 1542 BC, when King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty conquered Dongyi, there was a record of "Luo" in the oracle bone inscriptions, and "Luo" is today's Baotu Spring. . The ancestors chose the spring to live and multiply. All in all, this spring is now 3,547 years old. There are now 645 springs in Jinan, and there are 136 famous springs within 2.6 square kilometers of the ancient city alone, which are unique in the world.

Citizens said: Over the years, our spring water has come and gone, intermittently. What is going on?

Li Shixin, an expert on spring water research in Jinan, said: The terrain of Jinan is high in the south and low in the north. The mountainous area in the south is the remnant of Mount Tai, and the springs all originate from here. Most of the urban areas are Yellow River alluvial plains, with an altitude difference of more than 500 meters. Precipitation in spring supply areas seeps into the ground and flows north along the rock formations. When it reaches the urban area, it is blocked by rock masses and emerges from the surface to form spring water. However, less precipitation, the expansion of urban scale, and the increase in industrial and urban domestic water are the main reasons for the cessation of spring water flow.

Citizens said: We must find a way to protect it quickly.

Li Shixin said: God helps, people work hard; if God doesn’t help, people work harder. In June 1997, Jinan promulgated and implemented the "Jinan City Famous Spring Protection and Management Measures", which is the only famous spring protection law in the country; subsequently, Jinan City established a famous spring protection office, which was later upgraded to a "committee". Mayor Bao Zhiqiang personally He took charge; spent 5 years establishing files for famous springs; rescued and restored 56 famous springs in the urban area; and organized a review of 72 new famous springs in Jinan. In order to protect the springs, it can be said that the government has resorted to all kinds of skills: diverting the Yellow River to protect the springs, sealing wells to protect the springs, conducting groundwater recharge experiments, and greening the spring supply areas to conserve water. In recent years, the government has invested more than 2 billion yuan in "rescuing the springs" .

Wuquan

The spring is here, the guests are here, the money is here, the "quan economy" is alive and popular, and the spring water begins to "spout gold and silver".

The first pot of gold was found in the tourism industry. A tour guide from a travel agency told reporters that when the spring water stopped flowing, it would take ten days and a half to bring a group. Most of the tourists who came to Jinan stopped before going to Qingdao, Mount Tai, and Confucius Temple. The spring water had been spraying for two years, and tourists came in droves. One group today, and tomorrow As a group, we saw Baotu Spring, then went to Wulongtan, and then visited Daming Lake. Figures from the Jinan Municipal Tourism Bureau show that in 2004, the city received more than 10 million tourists and tourism revenue reached 9.4 billion yuan; in the first half of this year alone, it received more than 6 million tourists and generated revenue of 5.35 billion yuan.

Looking at Jinan's economic chain, there are many with the word "quan", hotels with the word "quan", teahouses with the word "quan", real estate with the word "quan", companies with the word "quan" and so on. The word "spring" also makes investors excited. Recently, Jinan signed 43 projects in Hong Kong with an investment of HK$20 billion, which is not unrelated to Jinan spring water.

The cultural industry is also borrowing from "Quan" to make a living, writing Quan's books, talking about Quan's films and TV shows, and acting in Quan's plays...

Asking about Quan

The spring makes Jinan come alive. Everyone is bustling and coming because of the "spring". Everyone is bustling and going out because of the "spring". It is a pleasure to stand by the spring, but it cannot hide the worry in my heart: Will the spring water fall asleep again? Will the spring water flow away in vain? What is the future for spring water? Asking the spring is actually asking ourselves.

Some people think that the reason why the spring water can spray continuously for two years is due to the heavy rainfall in Jinan during this period. But some people also ask why there was no sustained surge during the nine consecutive wet years from 1990 to 1998. Relevant water conservancy experts said that the key to the gushing lies in "picking the west and stopping the east", "closing wells to protect springs" and "protecting spring sources" in the mountainous areas of southern Jinan. Of course, God's help is also needed. Next year will still be a wet year, and the spring water is expected to continue flowing. But what about the year after next? What about in a few years or decades? The road to protecting springs is long and arduous.

The spring water has been spraying for two years. The city's daily gush volume is 1 million cubic meters, which is equivalent to one Daming Lake. In the past two years, seven to eight hundred Daming Lakes have flowed away in vain, which is distressing. Experts proposed 20 years ago that spring water should be observed first and then used. Today, the idea is still "hanging".

There has been a long-standing call for the spring water to be declared a world heritage site. By applying, Jinan spring water can win a "world-class business card", and people are eagerly looking forward to it.

However, the relevant departments proposed to build Famous Spring Landscape Park, China Hundred Springs Park and establish a spring water museum many years ago, but so far it has only been put on paper...

Of course, good news about spring water is also coming: Jinan Lei Xuerui, director of the Municipal Famous Spring Office, said that the city will renovate the Wangfuchi, Qushui Pavilion, and Baihuazhou areas to highlight the natural and historical landscapes of "every spring, every household with weeping poplars" and "clear spring rocks flowing upstream" ; The "Baiquan Wetland Protection Area" has been formulated for the Baiquan, Hulutou and other spring groups in Licheng District; the "Jinan City Famous Spring Protection Plan" has been planned, which will cover the 1,500 square kilometers of Jinan spring water supply area and spring water conservation area. The exposed areas of the four major spring groups in the urban area, as well as the Zhangqiu Baimai Spring Group and Pingyin Hongfan Spring Group are under key protection.

The spring water in Jinan is gushing, and the spring article only wrote a preface.

The spring water is new every day, and the spring city is growing every day.

A dry well gives birth to a spring

The well has a hole that is open, and water comes out of the well, so there is a phenomenon of a dry well giving rise to a spring. (So ??fujianc, Prophet A’s explanation is a bit inaccurate, but... it’s a matter of character -_-!!!)

A man who has a dry well and a spring springs up is like a well that has been dry for a long time but will not be filled with water. , has dried up, and unexpectedly it will rain again. A spring comes out of the ground, and thin water can flow for a long time. Those who divine this hexagram are also signs of good times and fortunes. "Xiang said," the dry well has been abandoned for many years. Once the spring comes out with fresh water, it breeds all things and is admired by everyone, and everything comes naturally. In the past, Su Laoquan once predicted this hexagram when he was twenty-seven years old. As expected, he worked hard to study and became famous. He also gave birth to Su Shi and Su Che. "Poetry says" "A dry well springs forth a spring of good fortune and prosperity, and its reputation is joyful and glorious. Although it was prosperous in the past, it will naturally develop in the future." "Duan Yue" The spirit gradually becomes refreshing, the fortune and fortune increase day by day, the incoming and outgoing are smooth, and everything is possible.

Things left behind by our ancestors must not be disbelieved, fully believed, or trivial.
