Yuci, Shanxi, which is often quoted by the family, has the ambition of taking the world with money and the spirit of seeking benefits all over the world. It made tea in Wuyishan, set up a village in Chaktu, and opened Wanli Tea Road, which was distributed in Mongolia, Russia and Northern Europe. It lasted for more than 200 years and became the first family of wealthy businessmen and China's trade with Russia. The reason for the long-lasting family business lies in the foresight of the clan and the danger of prosperity.

Hougou Ancient Village in Yuci is located in Dongzhao Township, Yuci District, adjacent to Shouyang County. There are 75 households with more than 280 people in the village. It is an ancient village with a long history in Yuci District, which can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty. The village is close to the kiln site in northern Shaanxi, built by mountains and rivers, and has preserved a large number of ancient buildings such as brick kilns, quadrangles and independent caves, as well as exquisite brick carvings, wood carvings and stone carvings.

Yuci in Shanxi has existed since ancient times. During the Western Zhou Dynasty, the descendants of the tribal leader Yu Wang (whose ancestor was Shennong) established Yuzhou State in Yushe (Yushe County, Shaanxi Province). Yuci got its name from this and was built in the Warring States Period. With the passage of time, Yuci ancient town gradually disappeared. Since the beginning of this century, this ancient city has finally been revived through the "surgical splicing" of major historical sites.
