ABACUS 算盤

In olden days, the abacus was used in daily trading and business transactions the abacus symbolizes business transactions taking place. When you shake the abacus in the morning before starting work, this indicates a good day at work. The action is supposed to help bring good sales for the day. The Golden Abacus represents wealth, prosperity and an endless amount of money to count.
