the name of Ji'nan old commercial port is numerous. Let's start with Hong Ji Tang. Located at two weft five, the Museum of Hong Ji Tang is now a famous old building in Ji'nan. It has a history of 100 years. This old Chinese and western old shop still keeps its original medicine cabinet, counters and other furnishings, as well as the decoration of SIEMENS chandeliers and printed floor tiles imported that year. The names of three herbs are written on the big drawer of each cabinet, licorice, dried ginger, cinnamon, fragrant sand, Wujia pi... The shop assistant had a good grasp of the medicine, as if it had not gone through a hundred years. It was still a medicine shop on the two road in that year. The doctor closed his eyes and kept his eyes, the man caught the medicine and decoct medicine, and the book room was tucked with the abacus. Ji Sheng Hongji Laba porridge is widely used to recall all the memories back to 1904. Ji'nan opened the port, and the two road became one of the most prosperous commercial ports at that time. Until the liberation, there were more than 200 merchants on the two road, and many of them were well-known as "Rui Xiang", "Taikang" and "Hong Ji Tang". The old man handed down the memory of the two road: it is very prosperous, many foreign and famous names are here, the railway department is here, this place is naturally the geomantic land. In 1907, the first shop of Hong Ji Tang opened the door here. The old shop of the West Hall of Hong Ji Tang witnessed the march of today.
Hong Ji hall stories from generation to generation, old employees often tell stories to new people. Mr. Qi, an employee of Ji'nan Hong Ji Tang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., recalls, "the benevolence and righteousness of Hong Ji hall was famous, often porridge and rice." There are many people waiting for porridge at the front of the market shop. To Laba, porridge with red dates, longan, peanuts and other materials boiled "Hongji Laba porridge". In the year of the disaster, the sweet foam of Hong Ji Tang is put up in a pot, and the sweet foam of Hong Ji Tang is put up, and the porridge of other people's house can't be cut down, but the sweet foam of Hong Ji Tang can not be poured into the chopsticks.
doctors want to "hang pot to help the world", "Meng Zi" also said: "Da Zhi and the world". "The" branch "" big patent "" "during the Anti Japanese War and the Anti Japanese base area of Linyi has close trade contacts, through its own channels to transport medicinal materials to the base areas to help the Anti Japanese base areas to treat the wounded. Although businessmen are "unable to afford to lose early", they have made due contributions to the victory of the war of resistance against Japan. Hong Ji Hall's staff said. "
when the medicine is cut, the staff can not have sweat staff to say: "Hong Ji Tang Pharmaceutical is also to the strict degree, pay attention to the medicine to" less bubble and more moist ", medicinal materials should be further processed in accordance with the properties in the" Yin and Yang dipping pool soaked ". The most authentic medicinal materials should be used when selecting drugs. For example, angelica must be Mianxian's angelica, and dangshen must be Codonopsis pilosula from Mount Wutai. When the medicine is cut, there is no sweat on the hand. After the slice, "Pinellia" slice should be "blown like snowflake", and all of them cannot be blown up.
the old man of Hong Ji hall often said a small paragraph: "Zhang Zongchang, the warlord in Ji'nan, married a lady in a room. The aunt, although long, was born in a small door, and had never seen a world. When he first came to Zhangjia, he saw so many delicious food that he could eat a pound of fat every day. After a few months, the curvaceous waistline was gone and the goose face was lost, but the doctor had to ask the doctor to see it. The doctor only said to let her eat red koji, and the name was the red koji of Hong Ji hall. Monascus, activating blood circulation to dissipate blood stasis, invigorating the spleen and eliminating digestion, regulating digestive function. After eating for ten days, the concubine resumed her body and was no longer "bloated" as before.
