◎Bi Gan：Father of Fur-making

Bi Gan (1092-1029 BC),surnamed Zi and named Gan,was the uncle of King Zhou of Shang and Prime Minister of the Shang Dynasty.He was a loyal minister who admonished the King with his death.It is said that Bi Gan used to be an official at Daying,Zaoqiang,Hengshui in his early years.After he saw many foxes and rabbits here,he invented the technology of barking and making fur to open up a road for local people to become rich.Therefore,people addressed him as the father of fur-making respectfully.Up to now,there is still Bi Gan Temple at Daying,which enjoys a stream of pilgrims,and Bi Gan Park has been built.(https://www.daowen.com)
