Fuhe River, which originated at the western foot of Wuyi Mountain at the junction of Jiangxi and Fujian, is the main artery of "controlling Fujian and Guangdong and connecting rivers and lakes". Linchuan, by the river, is a place where many waters converge, with convenient transportation and prosperous merchants.
Good transportation and rich products make it a place where ships and cars gather and prosper. Linchuan was established in the eighth year of Yongyuan in the Eastern Han Dynasty (96 AD), located in Linru County, nearly 2000 years ago; In 237 AD, Linchuan County was established, and Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty renamed it Fuzhou in nine years.
Fuzhou has been the granary of Jiangxi since ancient times. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, there was a saying that "the water in Fuzhou was half dry, and the rice in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was twice as expensive". Guangchang Bailian, Nanfeng Tangerine, Zixi White Tea, Linchuan Watermelon, Jinxi Honey Pear, etc. They are all royal tributes of past dynasties and have a good reputation.
The pottery figurines of the Song Dynasty (Southern Song Dynasty) displayed in Fuzhou Museum, holding a compass and looking ahead, are the earliest compass-shaped objects in the world, which just shows that as early as the Song Dynasty, business travelers used one of these four inventions to extend in all directions by virtue of Fuzhou's developed land and water transportation.
