“Nanxi Dried Tofu originated from the people. It was founded in the late Qing Dynasty. It spanned the Republic of China and entered New China. It has successfully withstood the baptism of the market economy. The century-old brand has not declined to this day.” Recently, reporters in Nanxi During the interview with Xi, the leader of the Nanxi County Economic and Commercial Bureau inadvertently revealed a secret: "The first brand of Nanxi dried tofu is the Daliangdang dried tofu created by Guo Xianqing in the late Qing Dynasty. I heard that his son Guo Daofu kept a late Qing Dynasty tofu The official seal is never easily shown to others."

In a low and simple bungalow by the Yangtze River in Nanxi County, the reporter was fortunate enough to meet Guo Daofu, the direct descendant of Nanxi Dried Tofu. Looking around the Guo family, there is nothing valuable except a simple equipment for hand-pressing dried tofu. "This is the official seal passed down by my father. It is more than 100 years old, but it is the heirloom of our Guo family!" The hospitable Guo Daofu disclosed to reporters for the first time the century-old experience of Guo's dried tofu.

According to Guo Daofu, his father Guo Xianqing was born in 1893 and died in 1976. The Guo family was one of the three private tofu workshops in Nanxi at that time. It occupied a large market share and its family was relatively wealthy. Since my grandfather and father believed in Christianity, they not only produced genuine dried tofu, but also often helped some poor local people. Therefore, people in Nanxi call our family "Guo Daliang". So, my father had an idea and asked someone to carve an official seal - Da Liang Mingli Company, as the business purpose of Guo's dried tofu and the family rules for educating his descendants: do more good deeds and make less money, and be conscientious in everything you do.

Guo Daofu inherited his father’s business and made dried tofu with his father since he was a child, which is a family tradition. After his father's death in 1976, Guo Daofu went to Northeast China to work as an educated youth. After returning to the city, he was assigned to work in Nanxi Construction Division. Guo's "Great Conscience Mingli Company" therefore withdrew from the market for a period of time. More than ten years ago, Guo Daofu and his wife were both laid off. In order to survive, he began to return to his father's business. In 1993, just when "Guo Daliang" came back to the scene, Guo Daofu suddenly discovered that Daliang, the number one brand of Nanxi dried tofu that his father had spent decades building, had been preempted by a local colleague named Yu. After acquiring the trademark, it was later transferred to a businessman surnamed Hou. Hou has now done very well in Chengdu with the help of this century-old brand. In desperation, Guo Daofu had no choice but to start a small business in Nanxi County to support his family based on his ancestral secret recipe.

In the late Qing Dynasty, corporate seals involved all aspects

“Although the trademark of Da Liang was registered by others, no one could snatch up the Guo family’s ancestral secret recipe. To be honest, at present, we really don’t have We need manpower and material resources to carry forward 'Guo Daliang', but there is no problem in supporting our family." Guo Daofu was very angry when talking about this matter: "Over the years, I have been asked to cooperate in the establishment of the 'Guo Daliang' dried tofu factory, but I have rejected them all. . Many people were willing to pay tens of thousands of yuan to buy the late Qing Dynasty official seal in my hand, but my 12-year-old daughter scolded me that when she grows up, she must use this to become the best in the world. Seal, to revive the glory of Guo Daliang."

The reporter carefully looked at this late Qing Dynasty seal and found that compared with the seals of modern enterprises, the seal of the Guo family's "Daliang Mingli Company" is very unique: Wankou. The circular seal is as big as 1, and is engraved with nearly 200 traditional Chinese characters on two layers. It not only contains the corporate promise of "no double price", but also the product introduction, business purpose, production process characteristics, consumption methods, etc. of Guo's dried tofu.

According to Song Huaiming, director of the Nanxi County Economic and Commercial Bureau, Nanxi Dried Tofu, a time-honored brand that has not declined for a century, is currently at a critical moment of comprehensive revitalization, and is applying for origin protection from the State Trademark Administration. Work, "great conscience, is the originator of Nanxi Dried Tofu. It covers the cultural connotation of Nanxi Dried Tofu, a century-old brand, and is of extraordinary value. I hope the heirs of the Guo family will protect this late Qing Dynasty seal
