Geocache Description:


QMR - The Quest for Morgan's Rum

Gan Ning was a military general of Sun Quan during the end of the Han Dynasty of China. He was born in Linjiang in the Ba Prefecture and took the style name of Xingba.

Gan Ning was a government official when he was rather young, but he left his post, and gathered a gang of fellow idle youths to become pirates. They carried bells as a mark, causing commoners to either run or hide whenever they heard the ring of bells. He kept looting, robbing and killing until he decided to start a scholarship. After reading some literature from different philosophers, Gan Ning sought out Liu Biao's patronage, who rejected him for his background.
