history

Shaozhuang originated about 800 years ago, about 1200 years ago. Once upon a time, an old man surnamed Shao wandered here with a child due to poverty. At that time, the land was deserted and there was no one to smoke, so he settled down here alone. Over the years since then, there have been more and more people. As the old man's surname is Shao, the village is named Shaozhuang. Later, the surnames of Li, Shen and pan in the nearby villages moved in, so Chuang Tzu formed a multi surnamed village. There is a gathering place of Shao's ancestral grave in the field of Shao's family in the southwest of Shaozhuang, which has a history of about 800 years.

The minimum annual cost per mu is 600. due to the high cost and relatively high income, some people are away all the year round, which makes it difficult for agriculture to harvest seeds to a certain extent.

Important landmarks

Shaoxigou

Located in the west of Shaozhuang, the gully was first opened artificially, with a depth of 2 to 3 meters, 110 meters from north to south, and 20 to 50 meters from east to west. During the people's commune period, it was jointly developed and utilized by Zhuangxi team, and was mostly used for fish culture. At that time, the natural environment was good, there were many fish, and loach was fat. Every year in the summer rainy season, the water overflows the river, and most of the fish swim to the nearby fields, woods and roads. The fry are released by Xitou brigade and shared in the harvest season. Due to the problems of climate change, pollution, the disbandment of the brigade and no management after 2005, there is no good tradition of fish culture and fish distribution in Xigou.

Shaodonggou

It is 60 meters from east to west, 40 meters from north to south, and 3 to 4 meters deep. The clear water is deep and suitable for fish culture.

Coil station

There are two large suction pipes and one suction machine, which lead to the deep pit in front to pump water. The station was mainly used for pumping water to grow rice. At that time, the government thought that the yield of rice was high and planted rice in the field. Later, it stopped because the weather in the North was not suitable for planting rice. Now, the machines and pipes of the station have been destroyed and lost, leaving only the architectural remains.
