money tree
Already in the Han Dynasty the Chinese tried to influence the elements of nature in such a way that they would be favorable for them to make a lot of money. The picture shows a money tree with ancient coins. In ancient times the Chinese thought the earth was square and heaven was round. The coins reflect that shape. This money tree can be seen in Sichuan, 三星堆 Sanxingdui museum.
The square/round shape is also used in architecture, as I have shown earlier in the Shanghai Museum or the round buildings in Yongding, Fujian, or in design in general.
