Shu brocade is a specialty of Chengdu with a long history. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court set up a special management organization "Jinguan" in Chengdu, and its office was located on the Liujiang River in the southeast of Chengdu, which is why Chengdu was called "Jinguan City" by later generations.
During the Three Kingdoms period, Shu brocade became a popular commodity in China. In order to increase the government's fiscal revenue, Zhuge Liang resumed his position as a "Jin official" to manage the production and allocation of Shu brocade full-time. "Is it Chengdu? The house of skills, a hundred homes away from home, looms and. " The production of Shu brocade has been greatly developed and has become an important financial source for Shu to pay for the war. "Zhuge Liang said:" Today, the people are poor and the country is empty, and the enemy's capital has been set, but it is praised. "Until Shu died, there were two hundred thousand brocade, colored silk and colored silk in the treasury, which shows the prosperity of brocade industry.
The Huayang County Records revised in the Republic of China said: "Mars's Yizhou Ji:' Jincheng was in the east of Nanju Bridge in Yizhou, and when it flowed to Jiang Nanan, it was also in the land of Jinguan, and its name was Jinli, and the city still existed. "Huayang National Records":' There is a city on the south bank of Yili Bridge and the west side of the road, so it is also a golden gate. There is light on the brocade, named Jinli. "Notes on Water Classics":' Yili Bridge goes west, so it is also close to Tianjin. It is said that brocade is a flowing river. Brocade is bright and weak because of its river, so it is called Jinli. ""And he said,' Where is the temple of the famous prime minister in Du Gongbu, in a deep pine forest near the Silk City'? This is the official story of the poet, not the archaeological reality. Or maybe the ruins of Jinguan City were still there when the Ministry of Industry, and the Prime Minister's Temple just flowed eastward to Jiang Nanan, and I don't know if it is near Jinguan City. "Based on this, it is speculated that the site of Daijin Guancheng in the Tang Dynasty may still exist, and its specific location was at the then' South Bank of Liujiang', which is today's South Bank of Jinjiang, not far from Wuhou Temple.
