According to the textual research of Taiyuan Cultural Relics Bureau, Yiyuanqing was founded in 1377. Originally, Zhu Jihuan, the fifth son of Zhu Shu, the grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, was the Wangfu workshop when he became the king of Ninghua in 141.
regarding the origin of the name of yiyuanqing, according to Zhang yingxuan, the last shopkeeper and vinegar maker who passed down before the liberation of yiyuanqing, in the early 15th century, there was a narrow alley in the ancient city of Bingzhou, and there was a small shop in the alley. The shopkeeper led a few boys to help people grind noodles, make wine and make vinegar for a living.
in order to make the store prosperous, the shopkeeper named the store "Yiyuanqing". "Benefit" is profit, "source" is endless, and "celebration" means celebration. Together, the moral is: I hope that the store will be prosperous and the financial resources will continue.
