According to legend, this steamed stuffed bun shop was opened during Tongzhi period of Qing Dynasty. The owner's surname is Gao Minggui, and the child's name is "paparazzi". According to Gui You's mother, Gui You had a stubborn temper when he was a child. When he got up, he didn't even let the dog play tricks on him. ?

Therefore, his neighbors made fun of him and called him "dog neglect". Later, Gao Gui went to learn cooking. The steamed stuffed bun he made is not only exquisite in material selection, but also exquisite in craftsmanship. Delicious and distinctive, it is deeply loved by diners. Empress Dowager Cixi liked the smell very much and couldn't help praising it.

Since then, this kind of steamed stuffed bun, "Yi Long, the price is ten times", is also famous all over the world, and its business is booming. More and more customers come to taste steamed buns every day, in groups, often at weddings. Later, Gui Youyou suddenly came up with a new business idea: even if there are several baskets of clean chopsticks on the table in the shop, customers still want to buy steamed bread. He asked to put the change in the bowl first, and then pay for the steamed bread according to the quantity in the bowl. After eating jiaozi, customers put down their chopsticks and left the store, busy with their friends without saying a word from beginning to end.

Neighbors made fun of him and said, "Paparazzi don't care if they sell steamed buns." Later, his shop was named Goubuli by his close neighbors, and his steamed bread was called Xin. No aristocratic friends objected. Once the name of this shop was circulated, it became a household name, and it has been circulated to this day, which can be described as enduring.
