Li Jinyong

Li Jinyong (1835-1890), who was born in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, was named qiuting. In his early years, he went into business with his father and later donated money to get the official position. He was transferred from Zhili to Changchun as a magistrate for his honesty and meritorious service in disaster relief. In April 1887, recommended by Li Hongzhang, he was transferred from Changchun to Heilongjiang to prepare for the construction of Mohe gold mine. After he took more than ten people to Mohe, he obtained the first-hand information of mine construction, formulated the "articles of association of Heilongjiang gold factory", and actively went to Tianjin, Shanghai, Yantai and other places to raise funds, recruit miners, purchase machines, prepare for the transportation of grain and arms. He was very careful in the planning of mine operation. In October 1888, Li Jinyong led his colleagues and miners to Mohe. He first set up the Mokuang camp to train the army, then set up the gold mine and started the sacrificial ceremony.

Li Jinyong was not humble, resourceful and righteous to the Russian bandits, which made the Shahe gold mine become the most successful mining industry in modern times and famous all over the country.

Li Jinyong devoted himself to foreign affairs of mining industry. He died in Mohe on August 14, 1890 at the age of 56.

This is the world's praise for Li Jinyong's honest and upright official position, industrial prosperity, driving away bandits, patriotism and stabilizing territory.

Because Li Jinyong is known as the "gold saint", the former gold miners must come here to worship before panning for gold. This place has become a tourist attraction.
