Shantong Prefecture, Stone Lion Street.
This place got its name a hundred and fifty years ago when two three-zhang-tall stone lions fell from the sky. It had long been a gathering place for high-ranking officials and aristocratic families in Shantong Prefecture.
The most prominent household on Stone Lion Street was now none other than the Qian Family. Not only were they counted among the four great aristocratic families of Shantong Prefecture, with Qian clan members holding key posts throughout the administration, but they were also devout Buddhists with very close ties to Dazhi Zen Temple. Rumor had it that all ninety-nine prime golden-thread nanmu pillars of the Great Buddha Hall built by Dazhi Zen Temple were borrowed from the Qian Family.
