Xie Lingyun, Luo, Zhu, Xu Xiake, Zhu Ziqing, Qi Jiguang, and such familiar names are inextricably linked with Linhai.
Millennium Taizhou House, rich in humanities. There are many relics in this ancient city. In terms of scenic spots and scenery, it will not lose to ancient cities like Luoyang, Xi, Jinan and Lijiang. As a historical reference, it also has a very important position in the history of China civilization. But it has always been so low-key and niche, just like the temperament of a group of historical figures mentioned just now, with dull appearance and strong heart.
Walking in Ziyang Street, I found that people who live here have such temperament. Like antiques, though no longer? Practical? However, the antique collection with great collection value can be appreciated. A trip to Ziyang Street can bring the miniature of the seaside into your arms.
What street is Ziyang Street?
Ziyang Street, the name comes from a man named Zhang Boduan in the Northern Song Dynasty. When he worked in Linhai, Ziyang Street was not called Ziyang Street. Later, Zhang Boduan went to Ziyang County, Shaanxi Province for an internship. Since then, this ancestor of Nanzong Taoism has a name:? Ziyang real person? . After traveling around the world, Zhang Ziyang returned to Taizhou in his later years, so the name of Ziyang Street was handed down.
It takes a long time to stroll down the street with a total length of 1km. Many century-old snacks and intangible cultural heritage shops are a little too low-key, and the signs are not ostentatious at all, even without signs. I even have a feeling that they don't? Attractions? And then what? Tourists? What they have been doing for hundreds of years is neighborhood business.
1, No.265438 Ziyang Street +0 1 Ziyang Inn.
To write about Ziyang Street, you have to mention this inn first. The owner of Ziyang Inn is a real coastal person. In the process of the birth of this travel book, the local people gave me a lot of practical advice.
His inn is also one? Attractions? .
There are stone tables and benches at the entrance of the inn, which are packed every evening. People who live in nearby alleys will play cards and chat here, and raise their hands and gestures, all of which are the taste of people enjoying themselves at the seaside.
Yes, have fun. This is my first impression of Ziyang Inn. The owner of Ziyang Inn is Wang Linping. When he opened this store, there was no inn on Ziyang Street. To win it? Ziyang Inn? This name, he waited for three years. Do you know that?/You know what? Ziyang street? These three words are landmarks by the sea, and? Ziyang Inn? It means it must be a model of the whole street inn. So the process of dealing with this name was full of twists and turns, but he didn't give up and persisted. He said it's okay. For this? Only? Later, it was worth it.
This is a small Chinese courtyard, antique. A shadow wall entered the door. Fu ting? A seemingly auspicious sentence, the boss's interpretation is different from what I thought. He said these four words mean: I miss playing in this yard when I was a teenager. Is a nostalgic person.
There is a well in front of the screen wall, which is a cultural relic with a history of about 500 years and still contains water. Behind the screen, there is a group of huge koi fish, and further down, there is a rockery. The workers are making solid wood furniture under the promenade. It turns out that everything in this room is handmade. The furnishings of a house are actually the interests of the owner's life. These interests are put in a shop, and they are looking for people who are equally interesting. What a wonderful life it is to be an interesting person, silent and quiet during the day, with countless running waters. Having stayed in so many inns and hotels, I seldom see projectors in my room. Every room in Ziyang Inn is equipped with a projector, and the image is projected on the white wall. Turning off the lights, watching a movie and catching a play feel like lying in the bedroom. This feeling is a good blessing to me who is also interesting.
Everywhere I go, I will not only watch the Raiders, but also chat with the local people. In the process of chatting, I will seek the most worthwhile scenery among the local people. Looking out from the window of my room in Ziyang Inn, Ziyang Street is below. There is a small pavilion under the window. There is a special scenery in the pavilion.
2. Weighing Shop No.213 Ziyang Street, Li Yong.
In the small pavilion at the entrance of Ziyang Inn, there is a huge scale, which is several meters long and as thick as an arm. Find the scale and walk over, next to the Wynn Wood Scale Store with a history of 160 years. Busy in the shop, it is the fifth generation descendant of Wynn wooden steelyard, Teacher Cai. She said that the huge wooden steelyard in the pavilion next door was made by her own hands. Free load bearing, but 100 kg weighing. Wooden scales have a long history. Behind the stick, there is a truth of being a man. When Fan Li invented the scale, he combined the story of the small scale with the story of Fu Lushou's Samsung in order to prevent profiteers from being short of weight. If you are underweight, you will lose your happiness, your wealth and your life. We often say that everyone has a steelyard in his heart, which can be called the balance of the world. And then what? Is it fair? Virtue, because of a wooden weight, has been praised by China people for more than two thousand years.
Teacher Cai's children are not learning to make scales. I asked her that children don't do scales now, so there is no sixth generation inheritor. How can this ancestral craft be passed down?
She looked up at me, smiled slightly embarrassed and bitter, and said nothing, but the action of grinding the beam in her hand did not stop. After a while, a young girl came to buy weighing scale. Teacher Cai enthusiastically explained the principle of the wooden scale, the significance of calibration, the method of looking at the scale and the auspicious meaning. It can be seen that she is always happy when young people come to pay attention to the wooden scale. After seeing the guests off, she said to me: Actually, I also thought about inheritance, but the children were no longer weighed, so I changed my family heirloom into an apprentice and taught students. Some young people actually like old crafts, and primary school students will come to learn to make scales during holidays. This is an extracurricular activity dedicated to Linhai and Ziyang Street. What do we always say? Weights and measures, of which? Constant? Is the scale, this wooden scale is everything? Constant? One of the most primitive, its history can be traced back to the 8th century BC. Now most young people are using electronic scales, and few people use this kind of wooden pole scale any more. Inheriting intangible cultural heritage skills from the first generation to the fifth generation, Wynn Scale Store has been here for more than 160 years and has never changed its place. Five generations silently guarded this Ziyang street, and what settled down was to keep the initial heart.
3. No.253 Ziyang Street, Hutchison Private Cuisine.
What does an old street rely on to maintain its thousand-year history? It's edible! Ziyang street is a well-deserved street? Snack street? . There are many old smells in this street that have been passed down for hundreds of years. Walking in every corner, I want to eat all the snacks at once, and the whole street has come down, and only this shop is the most complete. Hutchison private cuisine, although called private cuisine, isn't it at all? Selfish? The price is very close to the people and it is very suitable for a family or friends to eat together.
I recommend some special snacks that I have eaten in Ziyang Street:
Egg white sheep tail.
Beat it with pure egg white until it becomes solid? Flour? Shape, and then wrapped in bean paste stuffing, fried.
This small cake is full of egg white flavor, without greasy feeling. The bean paste melts in your mouth and is delicious.
Behind a small dumpling, it is so time-consuming and laborious. Egg white sheep tail is a snack in the streets and lanes of Linhai people. It looks a bit like a sheep's tail, hence its name.
Yangmei decoction
A special dish in Hutchison Private Kitchen was designed by the boss himself. Its raw materials are pure bayberry, honey and egg white. The sweetness of bayberry and honey are blended together, and then the egg white is broken and decorated to make it look more beautiful.
Unfortunately, Myrica rubra was listed only 20 days before and after the summer. If you go to Hutchison private cuisine in early July, you may still be able to eat it.
Bad soup. A special snack with a history. On the fourteenth day of the first month, every family will eat this rotten soup. Rotten soup looks like a pot? Huh? Linhai people can cook, and now eating has become a ritual and a tradition, but in the past, only during the Spring Festival could people afford it at home? Big plate? .
Now that the living standard has improved, the rotten soup is gone? Precious? Spelling is craftsmanship and taste. It has been circulating among the people in the coastal area for 1400 years, so you must eat it when you travel to the coastal area.
Wheat cake.
This is a kind of crispy skin? Talk? Cake, the material is also very simple, that is, pork and eggs, but its taste and color are very attractive, even people who are not hungry want to eat a few mouthfuls. Wheat cake is a traditional food that people in Linhai, even the whole Taizhou and even several nearby cities like to eat very much.
Stewed eggs in ginger sauce.
Linhai's unique food contains ginger, walnuts, brown sugar and eggs. Brown sugar tastes faint, and ginger tastes faint. On the contrary, walnuts are strong and eggs are fragrant. The overall taste is soft, and it is very satisfying with a piece of wheat cake.
Hutchison private kitchen owner is the only one in Linhai who has passed the certification of China Cuisine Association? China cooking master? The title of person, unique in the city, is really private.
After the hotel became famous, he opened another inn, Ziyang Inn mentioned at the beginning.
4. Linggen Straw Ziyang Street 105.
I didn't want to take a look when I passed the shop, but I heard the conversation between the boss and the guests and went in.
The guest picked up the fan and asked, How much is it?
50 yuan.
So expensive? Can you make it cheaper? Suppose it's 20.
Every penny is valuable. This is not only a fan, but also a work of art. ..
The guest is an uncle of a tour group. He looked at the puzzling old man. With a funny expression, I left the fan there and left.
I watched for a while.
This is a shop that does not bargain. Does any guest question this? Art? The boss won't explain the price too much, but her expression is full of words, as if to say: I sell this price for a reason, it doesn't matter if you don't buy it, I'll wait for someone who knows the goods.
I went in to chat with her. Her name is Zheng Xianhong, and she is the fourth generation inheritor of the handicraft skill of Linggencao, an intangible cultural heritage.
I said: Your name is very nice.
She smiled and said, My mother started it, and my mother also made it up. Linggen is a village near the sea, where a straw weaving process originated from the Southern Song Dynasty is popular. Girls will make a living by weaving a kind of grass used to make wicks into hats.
For a long time, this kind of hat was a necessity for local people to work in farmland. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, Linggen straw was once very prosperous and was the main source of life for people in this village.
Later, machines were used instead of handwork, and grass roots were woven, which was lost.
Teacher Zheng picked up a fan and told me, besides being beautiful, what else do we have? Energetic? . Is everything here? Bones? Yes, there are people, animals and fans. When you hold it in your hand, the wind fills your spine. This kind of fan is different from that made by machine. Handmade fans can be kept for a hundred years.
She picked one up? Not for sale? Let me see.
This handicraft has a history of 100 years. At present, apart from the dull color, it is still relatively strong and durable. Straw weaving is a craft. If you want to pass it on, just? Practical? Is not enough, today's material life is rich, most people no longer pay attention to the practicality of manual output. Therefore, Zheng and others improved the straw weaving process. Besides making straw hats and fans, they also make bags, vases, decorations and various handicrafts. During the conversation, what Mr. Zheng said most was that he hoped that this craft learned from his ancestors could be protected. Now there are also young people born after 90 among the girls studying this craft, and she is very pleased.
On Ziyang Street, these craftsmen are very low-key. They have the indifferent and flamboyant temperament cultivated by this side of the soil and water, and they are very satisfied and keep making progress.
5. Ziyang 99 laver cake, No.99 Ziyang Street.
Passing by this store, I heard a guest say, Why are there so few people in this store today? It's scary to queue up at ordinary times!
I stopped. The owner of Ziyang 99 seaweed cake is Guan, and his craft was handed down by his father. His father has worked in the food industry all his life. Although he did not expand the business of seaweed cakes, he left many unique recipes.
After continuous exploration, adjustment and improvement, their kelp cake business is getting better and better, and it has become the best-selling store in Shanghai. Foreign friends often visit Ziyang Street, so the boss's business has also been done in overseas countries such as the United States, the Netherlands and Japan. Foreign friends buy hundreds of packages and mail them. Although his business has increased, he still keeps the price of a biscuit at 1.50 yuan. Because there are many students among his guests. On holidays, a wanderer who left home returned to his hometown and surrounded his shop with three floors outside, which was a common scene at that time.
Kelp cakes range from snacks to big things in Linhai. The main ingredient is seaweed, which is made into sweet and fragrant mud, then wrapped in crispy flour and baked into small cakes. It is the best-selling snack in Ziyang Ancient Street and a must-eat food in Ziyang Street.
