Weitaihou Ticket Number Museum

introduce

Weitaihou Bank is the second largest bank in China after Rishengchang Bank, and the address of the head office is only a wall away from Rishengchang. The scale and structure are similar, and the ancient city of Pingyao was built for these ticket numbers. Wei Taihou was originally a silk and satin shop run by the Hou family of Jiexiu. Hou saw that Rishengchang's business was booming after it was changed from a pigment shop to a bank. It just so happened that Rishengchang's deputy manager, Mao Honghui, had a disagreement with the manager, Lei Lutai. Mao Honghui was excluded, and Hou took the opportunity to pull him over.

In the 14th year of Daoguang (1834), Weitaihou was officially changed into a ticket office, and the four firms of Weifenghou, Weishengchang, Tianchengheng, and Xintaihou were reorganized and operated as a ticket office, breaking the monopoly of Rishengchang all over the world. In the current situation, there has been a situation of fierce competition between the two major factions. Since then, China's ticket office has developed rapidly from Pingyao to Qixian, Taigu, and from Shanxi to the whole country.

Wei Taihou has now been converted into a bank account museum. The bank account as a whole is a traditional three-entry shop courtyard, with 40 brick and wood structure houses, divided into three exhibition areas of strategy, management and characters, and 18 exhibition rooms. The museum has extensively collected a large number of historical materials and objects, including Wei Fenghou, Wei Shengchang, Tian Chengheng, and Xin Taihou, which are known as the "Wei" Wulian number, and fully uses a variety of artistic methods to truly and vividly reproduce the Pingyao tickets of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.
