The Eight Trades (Chinese: 八门 Bāmén) are eight commerce sectors under the jurisdiction of the Liyue Qixing.[1][2]
Groups[]
So far, only four Halls in the Eight Trades are known:
| Name | Industry | Representative | Members |
|---|---|---|---|
| Communications Office[3][Note 1] | Transportation[4] | Unknown | Yanfei's friends[5] Master Qin "Thunder Hand" (Bodyguard) |
| Huishan Hall[6] | (possibly Mining[7]) | Unknown | Uncle Dai (Foreman) |
| Shenglu Hall[8] | Glazed Ceramics[8] | Miss Ruoyu[8] | Wanyu (Researcher) |
| Yinyuan Hall[1] | Salt[1] | Unknown | Wanyan |
Trivia[]
- The Chinese and Japanese versions use the term "Eight Gates." The name most likely comes from an important element of a traditional divination called Qimen Dunjia in China and Kimon Tonkou (also known as Hachimon Tonkou) in Japan.
- In the English version, each department bears the title "Hall." It follows the original meaning of the Chinese word 厅/廳
tīng, "hall" or "governmental office."
Notes[]
- ↑ Its Chinese name (Chinese: 和记厅 Héjì-tīng, "Harmonious Records Office") follows the same naming convention as other offices. Instead of the expected "Heji Hall," the English version uses a direct translation for this office.
