"Quanjude" was originally called "Dejuquan". It was a store selling dried and fresh fruits on Qianmen Street, but somehow, business went from bad to worse and eventually closed down.

In the third year of Tongzhi in Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1864), Yang, a native of Jixian County, Hebei Province, bought this store and started to deal in roast duck and furnace meat.

Before opening, a Feng Shui gentleman stood around the new store twice and said, "This is a treasure trove of Feng Shui, and its future cannot be * * *. It's just that this store was unlucky in the past. If we want to deal with it, only when the old name of "Dejuquan" is called "Quanjude" in reverse can the new name be smooth.

"As soon as Yang heard it, there was a word" all "in his heart, and secondly," Jude "was Jude, so he could flaunt his shop's business and talk about virtue.

Thus, the famous time-honored brand "Quanjude" was born.
