About Day Code Альманахи Чинӣ

Дар Тайван, тақвимҳо илова бар гуфтани сана ҳастанд, онҳо метавонанд соатҳои фолбиниро нақл кунанд ва тибқи тақвим кадом аломатҳои ҳайвоноти зодиакӣ бояд дар он рӯз эҳтиёт бошанд. Он чизҳоеро дар бар мегирад, ки имрӯз ба осонӣ ба даст овардан мумкин аст ва одамон бояд онҳоро барои вақти дигар ҷудо кунанд. Вақте ки ба тақвим нигаред, Ван Фен Чен ҳамеша фикр мекунад: агар Ван Фен Чен маълумотро дар тақвим аз калимаҳои чопшуда ба нишонаҳо интиқол диҳад? Саҳифа пас аз интиқол ва азнавташкилдиҳӣ аҷиб ва беназир хоҳад буд. Аз ин рӯ, Кодекси рӯз - альманахи чинӣ ба вуҷуд омад.

Inspiration: Is today suitable for moving? In the 1960s to 1980s, on the walls of every family in Taiwan, calendars presented by xx companies or oo stores were hanging there. People tore off one page early in the morning to celebrate the coming of a new day. In addition to telling you the date, you could tell the fortune hours and which zodiac animals signs should be careful during that day, according to the calendar. It includes things that could be achieved smoothly today and which ones I should put aside for some other time. On this little piece of paper, many codes of daily life were hidden there.
