Jiangxi people migrated to Guizhou during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the whole Ming dynasty was undecided, and the land in Guizhou lacked development and garrison. So a large number of Jiangxi people moved to Guizhou, which can not only explore the economy here, but also protect the security of Guizhou.

The second great migration took place in the early Qing Dynasty. At that time, affected by wars and plagues, the population losses in Yunnan and Guizhou were very serious. So Jiangxi people migrated again and went to Guizhou.
