Good fortune - qǐ yùn (English spelling)

Japanese: 起運 - きうん(英語表記)qǐ yùn
Good fortune - qǐ yùn (English spelling)
In China during the Ming and Qing dynasties, this term refers to the transport of grain or substitutes collected as land tax in local areas to the national capital of Beijing or other designated locations, as well as the transported goods themselves. In contrast, the retention of an amount of grain or substitutes necessary for local administration from the tax, as well as the goods themselves, was called 'sunliyu'. In the Ming dynasty, the term 'sunliyu' was broadly divided into three types according to the destination: to the capital treasury or storehouse in Beijing, to Nanjing, and to warehouses in the northern region or other regions.
