Oh, of course, although I do not dare to hope that the big scale divided into gold, the big bag full of silver Huangliang good thing, but also once dreamed, what time can also be in such a square hundred miles of water games, should be a very pleasant thing.
With the passage of time and age, this dream was once diluted.
The other day, in the village with some older people, only to learn that Houzhuang Street was once a water park, the northeast corner of the village of Wangqiao also used to have a pre-sailing dock.
Throughout the Xiuwu County, history books do record that Xiuwu County, north of the city has a water mooring named Wu Ze. And the air before the pier is not seen.
Although a little lost, but stirred up the curiosity of the heart, decided to explore.
Along the old canal road, from the west of the village, over the railroad, all the way to the north, and then turned to the east, to reach the border with the village of Kyung-ri.
Standing in the northeast corner of the village on the Wangqiao plot of land, as far as the eye can see, are green crops.
In my childhood memories, the original deep and wide canals, now has been completely changed, has become a small ditch and small gullies, and has even been filled and planted with crops.
The dock before the voyage is not there today, and the great changes in the Grand Canal can't help but add a few points of sadness and bitterness in the heart.
When did the spring flowers, autumn and moon come, and how much do we know about the past? Ningyi last night and the east wind, the canal is unbearable to look back in the wind and rain.
The cloud of the teahouse and wine shop disappeared, and the deserted grass scared the lonely. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new one, and you'll be able to do it. I don't see the riverbank, the old road, the grass mound.
In the end, everywhere is Liangshan, Liangshan good man all over the world.
Shui Po everywhere, but Liangshan here refers to the Shandong Liangshan but only one. The key is whether or not to dare to live as Liangshan, dare not take themselves as Liangshan good man.
Houzhuang Hangqian dock is an important dock on the ancient canal in Xiuwu County.
The dock winds from the northeast to the southwest, about 1500 meters in length, and the Wang Bridge extends into the canal from the south bank, forming a natural circular embankment. So, formally speaking, Hangqian wharf is a special wharf with a protruding embankment.
Listening to people say, Houzhuang navigation dock from the structure belongs to the vertical dock. This structure is not only convenient for ships to dock on the riverbank, but also conducive to the direct transportation of goods to the front of the dock docking, and can improve the efficiency of loading and unloading.
From the role of the Houzhuang navigation dock as a river freight terminal, mainly used for loading and unloading of goods. The main materials are the rich mineral resources of the Taihang Mountains in the north of Xiuwu County iron, aluminum, coal, magnesium, zinc and so on. However, it also does passenger transportation business.
And it should belong to the same period of Xiuwu County Dongguan dock is an important passenger terminal.
Compared to the two, the scale of the Houzhuang navigation dock is a little inferior.
Across the river, not far to the east is the village of Jingli, and to the north is Daititun.
The Hangqian Wharf is located on the south bank of the canal, occupying the Wangqiao site in the northeast corner of Houzhuang.
There are two legends about the origin of Wangqiao and this plot.
The first legend. It says that hundreds of years ago, a king was divided in Xiuwu County and lived in the county. (Another theory is Tianlvwei. Cannot be verified.)
As a royal blood relatives, a party of vassals, naturally, the family has a good field of a thousand piles, tens of thousands of buildings. Eat is the sea food, flying in the sky on the ground to run in the matter; wear is silk, pearl and jade are not care. Out of the family slaves, the front and back of the embrace, sounding the gong to open the way; into is a group of concubines, clothes to stretch out their hands, meals to open their mouths.
The king is not lacking in anything, the only thing that reassures him is that there is no heir, that is, there is no son to inherit the mantle.
The only thing that makes him feel at ease is that he has no heir, that is, no son to inherit the mantle.
For a long time, seeing his age getting older day by day, even if it is born in the royal family, the idea of the king's succession is more than the ordinary people's awareness of the more intense, which turned into a piece of his heart disease.
Because of the depressed mood, for this birth a serious illness, and finally even bedridden.
It is said that there is a disease. Wangfei began to open a list of rewards, heavy money to seek medical treatment.
Unable to do anything, the quacks are wrong. Eat dozens of pairs of tonics, the king even aggravated his condition.
The Princess and her family saw the King's water and rice do not hit the teeth, plunged into a critical situation, the anxious group of straight turn.
Suddenly, a shout came from outside, "Amitabha. Although the Buddha's door is compassionate, only the fated." But an ascetic monk.
The Princess is in a hurry, heard someone noisy outside, moody, let the housekeeper to see the situation.
The butler went out in a puff of smoke, and reported back that it was an ascetic monk, who was chanting "Buddha's only destiny".
The princess heard, but the heart was shocked. In her heart, she thought, "I wonder if the king is the one who has a destiny. So he sent someone to invite the monk in.
The monk listened to the introduction of the king's family, hand strokes long beard, a laugh, even walked to the king's bed before watching some. The monks were very happy to see you, and they were very happy to see you, and they were very happy to see you.
The king even huffed to sit up, mouth straight muttered, "hungry hungry, quickly pass the meal!"
The princess was so surprised that she hurriedly ordered people to serve food. The king ate a bowl of rice, and then drank most of the bowl of hot soup, the forehead has been seeping out a lot of sweat, but also the first recovery from a serious illness.
The king's consort was grateful to the monks, expressing gratitude plus rewards for the time being.
Single said that after the king is well, began to bring people to the county around the view around. The first thing I did was to choose a place called Houzhuang Wangqiao.
Here is a bend in the canal, the water flow is gentle, the river is the most narrow, the two sides of the river because of the suffering of the boat to and from very inconvenient.
The king sent people to invite craftsmen, choose raw materials, busy a lot.
A few months later, a beautiful stone and wooden bridge was built. On the day the bridge was opened to traffic, the people on both sides of the river came to see it and applauded.
After the completion of this bridge, the people of nearby Jingli Village, Daditun and other villages to Xiuwu County, can reduce the detour of four or five miles, greatly facilitating the travel.
Out of gratitude to the king, the people called the bridge Wang Bridge, to show eternal memory. The land on the south bank of the river, which is closely connected to the bridge, is also called Wangqiao.
While the bridge was being built, the king's wife's belly was bulging day by day.
A few months after the bridge was built, the princess gave birth to an eight-pound baby boy.
The king's heart like, in the royal residence for a month of happy face banquet.
Above the banquet, the king drank a few more glasses of wine. Some good people took the opportunity to ask him about the ascetic monk who cured him.
The king told everyone that the monk told him, "Buddha is a man of destiny, and the rich are a man of poverty. If you are rich and not benevolent, everything will become a cloud of smoke."
Finally, I told the crowd, repairing bridges and roads is the work of the moment, and repairing roads for others is also repairing roads for themselves. If others' roads are wider, their own roads will be wider.
Under his influence, the villages around Houzhuang Street are circulating "repair bridges and roads when the work" of the folk proverb, the nearby people are more and more virtue, the hearts of people are becoming more and more kind, the folk more simple.
? The second legend about Wang Qiao. It is said to be built in honor of a woman surnamed Wang, who was searching for her husband for thousands of miles.
It is said that a businessman named Li Shancai in the south, soon after his marriage, left his hometown to do business in the northern part of Henan, and then drifted to Xiuwu County.
Many years later, although Li Shan Cai earned some money, but due to the inconvenience of transportation, never been able to contact home.
And at home, since childhood and his childhood friend's married wife Wang's one led the children, carefully wait for the in-laws.
Because of the lack of financial resources, sitting on a mountain of empty, and due to the father-in-law died after a serious illness, the family financially unable to make ends meet, the debt is high.
Wang sold the family's property and fields, paid off most of the debts, and entrusted the children to the clan, and then went to the north of Henan to look for her husband.
After a year or two of displacement, asking around, Wang finally in the fall of a year to Houzhuang in Xiwu County, before the pier.
In ancient times, due to the high flow of passengers, the wharf, restaurants and hotels became an important place to find out information.
Wang, who had been searching for her husband for thousands of miles, just landed at the pier, and began to ask around for news of her husband.
After asking around, she found her husband in a small hotel.
However, the young and hairy shopkeeper told her, "Sister-in-law, you are too late. A few days ago, the government just killed a few looters roaming criminals, I heard that the leader is a southerner, called a Li what good fortune, said the business to do the loss, and did a murder of goods trade."
The young shopkeeper's words but let Wang's such as five thunderbolts. She could not listen to the other words of the shopkeeper, and staggered away.
Back to the temporary place, Wang's five internal burning. Not to eat or drink, sitting alone and empty until the morning.
Well, you're a deadbeat! I'm not sure how much I'm going to be able to do, but I'm going to be able to do it, and I'm going to be able to do it, and I'm going to be able to do it. Wang's ten million lovesickness, has long been turned into a full of grief and anger.
On the fifth day of the month, Wang threw herself into the canal and died.
By the time she was discovered, she had already perished, and her life went to the Yellow Springs.
That Li Shancai, in the morning with people to the dock to transport goods.
This is the first time I've ever seen the world's most popular movie, and I've never seen it happen before.
He said that a woman from the south was looking for her husband, and when she heard the news about her husband, she was so sad that she died of love.
Hearing this, the Li Shan Cai heart "thump" a moment, seems to feel bad.
He went to see his wife, who he had missed for many years.
Ten years of life and death, not to think about, from the unforgettable.
I didn't realize that I was looking forward to seeing my wife, but I was already separated from her.
It is said that the man has tears, only because it is not to the sad time.
Li Shancai eyes full of tears, grief shouted, "my wife ah." The first time I saw him, I was so happy to see him, but he was so happy to see me.
After the official confirmation, it turned out that this Li Shanzai is not his Li Shanzai, just rename the name.
However, this incident has made the infatuation of Wang lost his life for nothing.
In order to commemorate his wife's love, Li Shancai found many people, his wife Wang's martyrdom in the building of a bridge, taking his wife's surname named "Wang Bridge".
On the south bank of the bridge, Li Shancai purchased the land for his wife's monument to seal the grave. The descendants also called this piece of land as "Wangqiao".
Around the end of the 1950s or early 1960s, Houzhuang Street was drilling machine wells in the Wangqiao area, and the men, women, and children of the production team worked in three shifts during the day and night.
In the middle of the night when resting, a woman's wailing cry from the neighborhood, breaking the silence of the night sky, so that people's scalp straight to the numbness.
It was like this for three nights in a row, making people panic.
People began to discuss, is it possible to hit the machine well hit the Wang's grave? Some people quietly burn paper money to Wang's wish language (wish to give?).
They are the first to do so, and the second to do so.
Things are also really strange, after the burning of paper money, there is no more crying.
Nowadays, Wang Qiao and Wang's grave, although it has been like history, ashes and smoke. However, the tragic story of their sadness and joy has been passed on by word of mouth.
The winding curved Grand Canal, the hustle and bustle of the silence of the Grand Wharf, experienced countless stories of sadness and happiness in the world.
Although, Houzhuang navigation dock is located in the vicinity of Xiuwu County, located in the Jiaozuo region of the lagoon area, the upper reaches of many rivers many flash floods, triggered by the flooding of the county river, the Canal has been diverted a number of times, but Houzhuang, north of the section of the Canal has always been retained unchanged. The reason for this is the colluvial soil of the Wangqiao section. And this is one of the preferred conditions for selecting a dock in ancient times.
The second important condition for the selection of the dock is the water flow, water level and water velocity. And the canal in the northwest corner of Houzhuang Jiang family cemetery section has a section of almost ninety bends. To the east about nine hundred meters is the center of the navigation before the pier.
According to the village informants, early liberation, Houzhuang Wangqiao here river section of the embankment is about one point five meters above the ground, the embankment width can walk at the same time eight horse-drawn carriages, about a dozen meters wide. The depth of the water is three people high, about five meters, the amount of water, the water level is deep, the river is gentle.
All these occupy the natural conditions necessary for the construction of the pier.
As cruise ships, ferries, warehouses, pontoons, restaurants, hotels, and stalls sprang up, Houzhuang's pre-cruise marina also showed signs of vitality.
Throughout the history, the dock played an irreplaceable role in the history of the ancient canal transportation.
Due to the gathering of merchants from the south and the north, the Houzhuang dock gradually became one of the bustling areas around Xiuwu County.
When a brothel, two casinos, three inns, a number of stores,
created a flow of people and logistics, speculation and business opportunities.
In that era of materialism, "people die for money, birds die for food," the old adage, the greed for wealth, attracted the three religions, dancing wolves and ghosts, all kinds of people gathered to Houzhuang before the pier, seeking money, seeking power, seeking luck, deduced a scene of blood and tears of the tragic comedy.
The British colonizers along the Haihe River, Weihe River and the canal, by the Bohai Bay to the Chinese mainland nibbling, the claws will be extended to Xiuwu, extended to Jiaozuo. To Xiuwu to Jiaozuo to the Chinese nation committed a heinous crime.
Sovereignty was violated, resources were plundered, and the people were trampled.
Large and small freighters, spraying smoke, Xiwu will Jiaozuo a large number of minerals transported to the distant Anglo-Egyptian Empire.
The government collected taxes, officials collected bribes, fertilized the wharf punks, the bitter drudgery of the blood and tears.
After the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded Beijing, British imperialism is more than enough to fill the gully, intensified, in 1902-1903 to build the Daoqing Railway, more rampant looting of a large number of mineral resources in our country, the navigation before the pier before the gradual exit from the stage of history.
Aircraft before the pier, a short period of noise, a false prosperity, a humiliating history.
The national shame is unforgettable, and the alarm bells are ringing.
In the past, the banks of the river, Ningyi good place, the ancient county scene. The canal is a great place to be, and it's a great place to be, and it's a great place to be, and it's a great place to be. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the most popular products and services in the world, and you'll be able to do it all in one place. Riverside tea house, carved buildings, like a colorful belt; Riverside willows, condensing blue heavy smoke, if the powder. Thousands of years old county, advocating Confucianism and Taoism words of a thousand years, a pier, condensing wealth and gas welcome the four directions. Looking east at the Bohai Sea sails, elegant and colorful to; West look Luo Ho boat, car enough horse whistling out; South view of the Yellow River waves, a hundred feet of shocking waves beat the shore; North Gu Taihang Mountains, cui stacked thousands of cliffs.
Nowadays, the hundred rock pines green, bamboo seven sages of the old residence; Sheng Guo Temple tower glittering, showing the Buddha's Zen heart; dedication of the mausoleum although the remains of the countryside, there are still cherishing the hearts of the people; Guandi Temple solemn and solemn, the great promotion of loyalty and bravery and martial arts. The great nature, the ghostly craftsmanship, sprinkled with humanities, but also Sheng also praise. Cultural heritage, why is it so great!
As for the night, the clouds are high and the wind is light. The countryside flowers, fragrance spitting stamen; river leaf boat, fishing song evening. The pool in the islet, white gulls fly slowly, happy chirping rushing set; porch in front of the wooden eaves, purple swallow nesting, murmuring softly. Hedgeside bamboo, swaying shadow, alone; ugly alley hut, gray-haired weng crone, the qin and se melting. The first thing you need to do is to get a good deal of money to pay for the work!
Ningcheng Park, Cultural Square, bamboo swaying posture, flowers rosy aroma, the sound of silk and bamboo prairie, white hair hanging broom leisurely.
Ningyi is rapidly changing, the road in all directions, the Central Plains of the birth of health, national longevity township, four seasons of ducks and birds, Wan Yin smile to welcome guests from all directions.
The great beauty of Xiuwu, and its charm!
Although the former dock is not there, Ningyi has a new color today. The first loss is a gain, when there is no regret.
