Rishengchang

[A group of signed works from the starting point] In the middle of the Qing Dynasty, due to the needs of commodity circulation and currency turnover. An institution specializing in money exchange business emerged, called "Piao Hao", also known as "Piao Bank" or "Exchange Bank". This industry was dominated by Shanxi people, also known as "Shanxi Bank Bank", which monopolized the country's currency exchange. In the Dui industry, there were 17 largest ticket shops in the country at that time, 7 of which were opened by people from Pingyao. The largest ticket shop was "Rishengchang" opened by Li Jingkai, a native of Pingyao. It was originally a paint shop and was converted into a ticket shop during the Daoguang period. The book explains the story of "Rishengchang", the originator of China's ticket bank, from its opening to its peak. It tells the love and hatred of a generation of Shanxi merchants. It is the originator of Bank of China. It was the bank that controlled half of China's financial industry in the 19th century. The street on which it is located is commonly known as China's "Wall Street" in the 19th century. It is a story that Shanxi merchants cannot bypass and a starting point that China's modern financial industry cannot go beyond. Without Pingyao and without "Rishengchang", the history of China's modern financial industry would have been rewritten, and perhaps we would not even know where it started.
