There is a place in Shanghai called Shiliupu, which is also the name of a pier. Speaking of the origin of this place name, it can be traced back to the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, Shanghai had prospered, and many merchant ships were often parked along the Huangpu River. One of them often docked on a ship carrying charcoal from Ningbo. At that time, there was no hotel on the dock, so Ningbo businessmen could only spend the night in temporary places under the eaves on both sides of the road. After seeing this situation, a local resident thought that opening a simple hotel here would definitely be popular and make money. So he set up a thatched cottage by the dock and arranged two beds for the businessmen to rest for the night. This practice has really been welcomed by businessmen in Ningbo, who are scrambling to spend the night here. Others saw that the resident business was booming, and they also built houses and made beds at the dock to open an inn. Soon, it grew to 16 beds.

Later, when the hooligans in Shanghai learned about this situation, they came to blackmail, but they didn't make much money. So he sent his axe gang to make trouble, which made the shopkeepers unable to open their business, so they had to close down and eventually demolished the house. However, the "sixteenth store" that once brought convenience to people is remembered by people. As long as this place is mentioned, people will immediately associate it with the "Sixteenth Shop". After a long time, "Shiliupu" became the place name here.
