Founded in Tongzhi years, they are all run by the Meng family in Jiujun Town, Zhangqiu County, Jinan Prefecture, Shandong Province. At first, there were two companies, one was Ruilinxiang on the West Moon Wall in Qianmen, and the other was Qianxiangyi on the East Moon Wall, which engaged in silk brocade and thick and thin foreign homespun, and their business was booming. Then in the south of Mill Road, Ruishengxiang was opened. In the early years of Guangxu (about 1875), three branches were opened. Qianxiang No.1 branch is Yihe Lane, located on the west side of the jewelry market. The branch of Ruilin Lane is Dongji of Ruilin Lane, outside the fish mouth of Qianmen Street. The branch of Rui Sheng Xiang is Rui Zeng Xiang, and there are only six in its heyday outside the polished mouth of Guangxi.
In the 19th year of Guangxu (1893), Ruifuxiang Silk Store was opened in Dashilan. During the Gengzi Incident in the year of Gengzi (1900), Dashilan Street was in ruins. After the Golden Dream, with less than 20,000 gold, Rui Fuxiang was restored and rebuilt. Due to the construction of railway stations on the east and west moon walls of Qianmen, major shops are either demolished or closed down, or moved. In the 29th year of Guangxu (1903), the train entered Beijing, Ruilin Lane of Xiyue Wall merged into Dongji of Xianyukou, Qianxiangyi moved to the front page of the gallery, and the store merged into Yihe Xiang, then Qianxiangyi opened a branch east of Beihoumen Street Road in Qianxiangyi. Large-scale, due to illegal operation, heavy losses, and soon closed down. After the end of Guangxu (about 19 1 1), Ruifuxiang's business was booming, and he opened five branches in Dashilan Street, becoming the leading silk shop at that time. Rui Lin Xiang Dong Ji was also sealed up because of the Qing Dynasty. In the Republic of China, Rui Linxiang was no longer owned by Meng. Ruishengxiang and Ruizengxiang closed down in 1935 and 65438+February respectively. Qianxiang No.1 specializes in wholesale, and Yihe Lane is the second store, which is actually a store. At present, there are only two "Eight Auspiciouss" in the jewelry market: Ruifuxiang and Qianxiangyi Store. Qian Xiangyi changed to Beijing Silk Store after liberation.
