According to the records of Wuhu City annals, Yun was a native of Wuhu County. By 1927, five of Yun Tianzhi's brothers had opened Longfang, including Chongfa, Fuji, baofengxiang, Lifeng and Cuifeng. They had 2000 mu of good farmland in Nanxiang and lepingwei of Wuhu County. After more than 10 years of painstaking management, they successively bought more than 10000 mu. Among them, er Fang (baofengxiang's boss) was the broadest, accounting for 50%, followed by Wu Fang (i.e. Li & Fung's boss). No. 17, No. 18 and No. 19 of South Street are the locations of Yun brothers' Longfang. This group of buildings was purchased by the Yun family in 1930. There are five buildings in front of and behind the house. The foundation of the building is made of qingtiaoshi, which is built with green bricks. In particular, No. 17 South Street, this magnificent old house was built in 1895, which should be regarded as a relatively early building in South Street. Its outer wall is made of green brick and thin glutinous rice. Therefore, although it was demolished in 2003, it is still very firm. In addition to South Street, Yun brothers have a large number of properties in other places of Wuhu, such as West Street and chunliangli.

1. Location:

Wuhu South Street, located in the south of Yijiang bridge, is a very old street, which existed long before the opening of Wuhu port. It has been recorded in the annals of Wuhu County in 1673, which has lasted for more than 300 years. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, there were more than 100 rice shops on Nanjie street, including Guangzhou, Chaozhou, Ningbo, Yantai and many local rice shops. According to Wuhu County annals in the eighth year of the Republic of China, there are rice shops and machine Longfang in Jiangkou. From Nanguan to fuqiaotou, there are rice shops, which is called Nanshi South Street and Wuhu rice market are inextricably linked, without rice market, there can be no glory of South Street.

3. Tourist attractions:

Tiger Kitchen: in the middle of South Street, at the intersection of the east-west direction of Caishen lane, there is a tiger kitchen. The so-called tiger's boiling water stove is the place where people boil water. In fact, this tiger kitchen in South Street has been around for nearly 90 years. Around the first year of the Republic of China, a child named Huang Zhiqing came to Wuhu from his hometown Wuwei County to make a living. This honest farmer first worked as a water bearer at Zhang Zhongxin's home near yandaotaiya (the former seat of the government of Matang District) in Henan Province. Three years later, when Zhang Zhongxin saw that Huang Zhiqing, who was only 16 years old at that time, was honest, honest and willing to work hard, he took the initiative to borrow 100 pieces of ocean to Huang Zhiqing and let him come to South Street to rent a street front and open a tiger kitchen alone. At that time, the rent of the house was 3 Dan meters per month. In 1961, the tiger stove was passed on to Huang Zhaoyu, Huang Zhiqing's son. Until the end of 2008, the tiger stove remained the same as before. The bluestone plate in front of the stove was the same bluestone plate of that year. The difference was that its surface had been polished as smooth as a mirror. The stove for boiling water and the wooden ladle for bailing water are still the same as before. Even the fuel used in the furnace is the same as it was 90 years ago. It's all wood and wood shavings collected from all over the world. It's hard to see such a tiger stove that sticks to the traditional method of boiling water, not to mention in South Street, even in the whole urban area of Wuhu. Now Huang Zhaoyu, the boss, has white hair. Whenever he talks about the prosperous business scene of the tiger kitchen in those years, his eyebrows show an undisguised pride. The old man still clearly remembers that it takes 500 steps to pick up a load of water from the tiger stove to the Qingyi River, with an average of 120 loads a day. With the demolition of the South Street, the tiger stove and the South Street are always in the depth of history and memory.

Zheng Mansion:

Zheng mansion is located at the south end of South Street. Its house number is 94 South Street. Close to Qingyi River, the old people on the South Street call it Zheng mansion, whose original owner is Zheng Minxing. Zheng Minxing was a famous TCM doctor in Wuhu in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. He had good medical ethics and reputation. During his decades of medical practice, he accumulated some money, which he used to buy large tracts of good farmland in Wuhu County and Huangchi county. He has two sons, the eldest son Zheng Xiaoqing and the second son Zheng Xiaolan. Zheng Xiaoqing once worked as the county magistrate of Lujiang County for about a year, and he has been living at home for the rest of the time. Zheng Xiaolan, his second son, has no occupation either. The whole Zheng family, including 30 or 40 servants and servants, lives a carefree life relying on the rent from the countryside. Zheng Xiaoqing's social background is quite complicated. He and Wang Zidong are brothers. His second daughter married Li Linkang, Wang Zidong's adopted son. Before the outbreak of the Anti Japanese War, Li Linkang was the chief of the general affairs section of Wuhu Public Security Bureau. After the fall of Anhui Province, he was also the director of Hanshan Salt marketing department. the main building of Zheng mansion has two entrances and two floors. The scale of each entrance is roughly the same. There is a wing room on the north and south sides of the upper and lower floors, and the main hall is in the middle. All the windows facing out are equipped with iron tracers, which is beautiful and has anti-theft function. A wooden overpass is also built across the two-story corridor, through which people can easily walk from the first half of the second floor to the second half of the second floor. The overpass is also covered with a rain shelter. On the square beams on the second floor of Zheng's mansion, there are many exquisite wooden carvings, including flowers, birds, fish and insects, and dramatic figures, each of which is lifelike. The two ends of the railing on the second floor are also carved with peony patterns symbolizing prosperity. Until the end of 2008, when the house was demolished, it was still intact. At the back of the main building, there used to be a large-scale back garden. In the early years of the Republic of China, the Zheng family also built a two-story brick and wood building here. At that time, the old man of the Zheng family lived on the second floor, and the downstairs was full of rice debris collected from the countryside. It's a pity that this western style building has long disappeared. After the founding of the people's Republic of China, a new building was built on the original site, which became the office building of Wuhu County Public Security Bureau. After the county public security bureau moved away in 1971, it became the staff dormitory of the County Public Security Bureau.

75 South Street:

There are many properties of the Zheng family. Opposite to the Zheng residence, No.75 South Street belongs to the Zheng family. It used to be a Hui style residence. The Zheng family rented the house to others and opened a dyeing workshop. In 1934, Zheng Xiaolan rebuilt it into a two-story European style building with the gate facing south street. After the reconstruction, it was rented to merchants to open cloth stores and grocery stores. In addition to South Street, three houses at 202-204 Zhonger street, 24 xiachang street and yongshengxiang front room at Henan Second Street are also owned by Zheng Xiaoqing.

Other attractions:

There are many stories about Nanjie, such as taoshuanghe Longfang, liuyitai sauce shop, liuheji Longfang, Shuntai Wuyang shop If you look at it carefully, it's not something that several newspapers can carry. There is also the "Su pawnshop" in Su Yantian, No. 60 South Street, which was originally built by Li Hongzhang's family. In the early years of the Republic of China, the descendants of Li's family gave this property to Su Yantian. Su used it to open a pawnshop of considerable scale, known as "Huiyuan" pawnshop. But all these old shops and houses have been demolished as a whole in the reconstruction of the old city in December 2008, all of which have turned into a wisp of dust and quietly stood on the back of history
