Zhuganhui is located on the west side of Guyang Road in Yueyang Street, on the west bank of the former moat. The Songjiang Gazetteer describes Bamboo Pole Hui as follows: "From Songhui Middle Road in the south to Sunway Bridge in the north, opposite the Blackfish Lane on the north side of Zhongshan Middle Road." It is about 433 meters long and 2 to 3 meters wide, with a bullet-and-stone road surface. "This is a residential road, which used to be a water transport dock, and is flanked by tea houses, sauce gardens, chicken and duck rows, and various shops. In 1992, the old city was renovated and gradually demolished.
Bamboo Pole Hui old appearance in 2004
So what does bamboo pole hui look like today? Zhang Feng, a lover of songjiang history and geography, made a note with familiar architecture: "The ruins of the northern section of Zhuganhui are located in the Pinggao World Trade Center; the middle section of the ruins is located in the parking lot of Ludu International Commercial Plaza, where the wal-mart familiar to the public is located; the southern section of the ruins is located in Ludu Yunjian MingmenYuan." If you use a sentence to introduce the bamboo pole, Zhang Feng prefers to use an easy-to-understand sentence, "The Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty has come twice." According to his research, the Cijin Garden in Zhuganhui is the ancestral residence of King Hongxu (1645-1723) of the Qing Kangxi Dynasty, and the Kangxi Emperor visited this garden on March 29, 1705, with the word "Songzhu" in the imperial book. On March 16, 1707, Kangxi again stayed in the garden. The ruins of the Golden Garden are located in the present-day Ludu Yunjian Famous Gate Garden.
Why did Kangxi visit Bamboo Pole Hui? Here is the story of the former owner of the old house of Bamboo Pole Hui and the family of the three soldiers. Wang Was a "Court Elder" of the Qing Dynasty, and has been an official for 50 years since he was 32 years old when he was admitted to the Jinshi in Beijing. When Yongzheng was emperor, he was 82 years old and begged several times to return to his hometown, but the Yongzheng Emperor repeatedly retained him until he died of illness at the age of 84. After his death, the emperor personally issued an edict to mourn, suspended the dynasty for one day, and ordered all officials who went out of his door to serve the funeral, and all the Han officials of the ministries and courtyards should go to the sacrifice, and give the funeral, give the courtesy, and do their best to mourn. Wang Hongxu was the younger brother of Wang Yanling, a scholar in the twelfth year of the Kangxi Dynasty (1673), who won the second (bang eye) of the Ting Examination, and was appointed as the editor of the Hanlin Academy, and the Shangshu of the Ministry of Works. He was co-authored in the Compilation of the History of Ming with Zhang Yushu and others, and was one of the revisions of the Peiwen Yunfu, and he was proficient in collecting calligraphy and paintings throughout his life. Wang Jiuling was the older brother of Wang Hongxu and the younger brother of Wang Haoling, a scholar of the Kangxi Dynasty in the 21st year, an official to the left capital yushi, who was known as a poet in the world when he was a teenager and was a famous poet of the Qing Dynasty.
There are also sayings that the name of "Bamboo Pole Hui" is related to this, "the flagpole in front of the Jinshi House is towering", so the name bamboo pole hui. Qian Mingguang, a historian of Songjiang, rejected this claim: "The flagpoles in front of the Jinshi's house are all made of wood, not bamboo, and the origin of the bamboo pole exchange is that farmers often gather here to sell bamboo. "In ancient Jiangnan, boats were the main means of transportation, there were more passenger ships in front of the palace gate, more bamboo pens, and the name of bamboo poles may also be related to this."
The bustling and prosperous commercial street seems to be the common impression left by the bamboo pole exchange. According to Zhang Feng's research, in 1911, Xu Xizhi, a professor of military science at Nanyang Public School in the late Qing Dynasty, xu Xizhi, who was the director of the Shanghai Public Security Bureau and the director of the National Highway Administration at the beginning of the Republic of China, founded the Songjiang Electric Lamp Factory at No. 9 Zhuganhui, and delivered electricity the following year until June 1, 1959, when the power plant stopped generating electricity; in the mid-1920s, Ximenwai Avenue and Zhuganhui opened 2 minsheng and Jiangsheng Chemical Industry Cooperatives, mainly producing shuangxi brand, Sifu brand toothpaste (tooth powder) and daily cosmetics such as alabaster, perfume, hair oil, etc., with an annual output of about 100,000 pieces. Exported to Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Hong Kong, China; in the 1950s, there was a family soap industry society in Zhuganhui; in 1985, Shanghai Hengling Knitting Factory was established at No. 16 Zhuganhui, which was subordinate to the county supply and marketing cooperative, mainly producing rabbit sweaters and woolen sweaters, with an annual output of 100,000 pieces.
There is also a school on Zhuganhui Street, that is, Zhongshan Primary School Branch, formerly known as Zhuganhui Junior Primary School, the school site is in the middle of Zhuganhui Street, No. 1 Fengli Village, founded in 1940, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, it was renamed Fengli Primary School, and later renamed Guyang Town Third Bao National Primary School, Yueyang Town Tenth Bao National School, Fengli Village National Primary School. In 1951, it was renamed Fengli Village Elementary School. During the "Cultural Revolution", it was called Hongwei Primary School, and in 1981, it moved to the new site of Songhui Road and named Songhui Primary School. In July 1993, after "dismantling the two and building one" with Zhongshan Primary School, it became the branch of Zhongshan Primary School, and the school site was located at No. 13, Lane 401, Songhui Middle Road.
About the fragment of life on the street of Bamboo Pole Hui, Professor Tang Bingsheng, a researcher of Songjiang Peasant Book, described it in his article "Bamboo Pole Hui in the Heart". The south end of the bamboo pole is turned to the east, there is a sauce garden shop, the wall is tall, the gate faces southwest, the lintel has the words "Maofeng Sauce Garden", the owner is a Wuxi person, mainly engaged in pickles, liquor, soy sauce. At the bend of Miaoqian Street on the west side of Zhongshan Middle Road, there is also a sauce garden, called "Yongxing Sauce Garden", which is a Western-style two-story building with a north balcony on the street, which later became a candy store. In addition, there are moso bamboo shops, dye shops, tofu shops, tea houses, etc., which are very lively. Later, with the transfer of the docks, the market gradually fell into the cold. In the 21st century, Bamboo Pole Hui was included in the urban transformation plan, hundreds of households were scattered, and the high-rise buildings today were soon built here.
