In the early years of Kangxi, as a supplement to the maritime ban, the Qing government implemented the policy of "moving the border" in the coastal areas of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong provinces. 1 10,000 people were forcibly moved from the Pearl River Estuary to the West Village and Pantang in Nanhai County-this figure is of great significance and far-reaching influence on the future population composition of Xiguan.

You must know that Nanhai county had a population of only 90 thousand at that time! After 350 years, the descendants of this group of Tujia people can be called "Old Xiguan"! Fishermen in coastal areas make a living by fishing, but they lost their jobs when they obtained the "Xiguan hukou". In order to fill their stomachs, they took their young to the river to touch fish and shrimp and rushed to the nearest Tianjin to be a ghost. There is a new market in the suburbs, which is called "immigrant city".

2. Stranger Xiguan Thirteen Lines:

"Pan Lu Wu Ye" has become a word-of-mouth 13 richest man. The founders of these four families were born in poverty and developed into myths. Some Xiguan people mistakenly thought that they were rural sages. In fact, the Lu family comes from Xinhui, Guangdong, and the Pan, Wu and Ye families come from Fujian. Just like those poor families, they are strangers who immigrated to Xiguan.

Xiguan indigenous people got rich first when they saw the thirteenth line, and they also got rich with it. Not everyone can do foreign trade, so people in the circle climbed to the side of the foreign trade car and opened an export room for weaving. The profit of weaving industry is low, and computer rooms around it have mushroomed. Therefore, a large number of farmhouses have been transformed into computer rooms, and contiguous buildings are becoming more and more deserted. The aborigines washed their feet and went to the fields, and Yong 'an and Xile fell apart.

When the "old and young" need to be equipped with wage earners, it is a natural match. Unemployed bookworms are eager to be exploited, and their popularity outside the circle is in harmony with the surrounding men and women, so they are called "computer room boys". Competition in the labor market is fierce, and losers become "travelers who have gone and never returned". The most unfortunate person's best choice is to be a beggar. Xiguan Beggars' Sect has a prosperous lineup, and its base camp is around Hualin Temple.

Rogue proletarians are lawless, and the public security situation in Xiguan is grim. The authorities know how to do both. On the one hand, they set up the glittering Xiguan flood season, on the other hand, they set up the Caring and Cultivating Hall at the 18th National Congress. These two institutions echoed the embroidery workshop and Anle Lu in the history of Xiguan in the Song Dynasty.

3. xiguan big house in Xiguan:

The characteristic of Xiguan is xiguan big house. Xiguan big house was the residence of merchants and rich gentry in old Guangzhou. Xiguan big house is mostly made of brick and wood, with blue masonry feet and large front door inlaid with granite. Its plane layout is basically developed in the depth direction according to the traditional main hall form of the Central Plains. Its typical plane is three rooms and two corridors; Symmetrical left and right, with the main hall in the center.

On the left side of the front of both sides are the study and yard, and on the right side are the slant hall and guest room. The roof of the guest room is flat, which is used for enjoying the cool, enjoying the moon and visiting Yue Bai (Seven Sisters) for seven nights in Xiguan. Behind the slant hall and guest room are bedrooms, kitchens, etc. Flowers and trees were planted in the garden, and a rockery fish pond was built, which was quite elegant and quiet.

4, the myth of Xiguan, the lion roared.

According to legend, during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, there were ponds and pools in Chenjiaci Fujian. One year, when a flood disaster occurred, the water level kept rising, people's houses collapsed and some people died. Late at night, the stone lion at the gate of the temple gave a roar.

The next morning, all the floods had subsided. Since then, there has never been a flood in Chenjiaci area. People say that the stone lion drinks all the water, so they regard it as a "sacred lion" and say it is a sign of "good luck".

5. White Goose Lake in Xiguan myths and legends:

According to legend, in the 14th year of Ming Dynasty (1449), Huang Xiaoyang led the peasant uprising in the Pearl River Delta. The rebels attacked the Zhou Ke Group and won many battles. When the warship arrived at today's White Swan Pond, a white goose suddenly appeared on the river, leading the warship of the rebel army to move forward quickly and head for Guangzhou.

Later, the uprising army was suppressed by the Ming Dynasty, and Huang Xiao's troops were defeated and retreated to the White Swan Pond. At the moment when there was no way to go, the white goose suddenly swam from the middle of the river, flapping its wings, shouldering Huang Xiao's wings and flying to the middle of the river until it disappeared. Since then, this place has left a beautiful name of White Swan Pond.
