Overview of Wuxi Junlai Liangxi Hotel
Wherever a river passes, a prosperous city can grow. The Seine River gave birth to Paris, the Thames River gave birth to London, and the Suzhou River gave birth to Shanghai... They are all called the "mother rivers" of the city.
If you want to find such a "mother river" for Wuxi, I am afraid there is no one more suitable than Liangxi River. For thousands of years, Liangxi River has given birth to generations of Wuxi children. She and Wuxi are closely related, so Wuxi is also called "Liangxi". Junlai Liangxi Hotel is named after Wuxi, which means the same name as "tin".
When it comes to Wang Yuqing, we have to talk about his legendary life.
On August 12, the fifth year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty (1879), a baby boy was born in the home of a private school teacher in Qingqi Village, Yangming Township, a suburb of Wuxi. He was later known as "Modern Shanghai" Business Wizard" Mr. Wang Yuqing. Wang Yuqing started working as an apprentice at the age of 14. Because of his outstanding ability in attracting merchants and business, in the 29th year of Guangxu's reign, he was invited by brothers Rong Zongjing and Rong Desheng to work in Wuxi Maoxin Flour Mill as branch manager. In 1912, Wang Yuqing founded Fuxin Flour Mill in Shanghai with the funding of the Rong brothers. Due to his skillful management, Fuxin has grown to 8 factories in just 9 years. They also established a flour exchange in Shanghai, and the flour they sold was market standard flour.
The ancestral home of the Wang family is located in the suburbs. Mr. Wang Yuqing felt that it was inconvenient to get in and out of the city, so he invited a famous Feng Shui master to come to Xi to choose a site. He bought the land in Shilangzhong Lane and spent a lot of money to search all over the country. Various famous trees, ancient stones and rare treasures were used to build the Wang family's private garden in the 1930s, which is the predecessor of the current Liangxi Hotel. In 1927, Mr. Wang Yuqing spent another 200,000 yuan to build Liyuan.
