"The experience. Because the name "wonton Hou" takes the surname of its group leader Hou Tingjie, it is considered to have a strong "feudal repair" color. It is said that at that time, in addition to doing "workers, peasants and soldiers canteen", "wonton Hou" was also renamed "four new" restaurant. At that time, wontons were not the main business content, but instead sold noodles, rice and steamed buns. At the door of the wonton Hou, there was also a large basin, and the diners washed their own dishes after eating. It was not until the early 1970s that the "wonton Hou" restored the font size and re-operated the line.

Hou belongs to the system of state-owned enterprises and is managed by Dongcheng District Catering Company. In January 2003, "Wonton Hou" changed into a joint-stock enterprise, the full name of "Beijing Wonton Hou Catering Co., LTD.". From street stalls to large-scale enterprises that have opened all over the country, the change of wonton Hou is of course more than changing from bungalows to buildings, and more than how many new varieties are derived from wonton. As a famous time-honored brand in Beijing, its development and confusion belong to the common face of all time-honored brands. For example, the operation is too market-oriented and commercial, and the soul and temperament of time-honored brands can only remain in history and people's memories.

Although the only "wonton Hou" selling wonton in Beijing has sold its reputation, there were countless "wonton Hou", "wonton Li" and "wonton king" in the streets of old Beijing. Wonton vendors are scattered throughout the Wangshi business district of old Beijing, like the seven former owners of "Wonton Hou.

The continuous intervention of the Qing government made the control of the inner city of Beijing less strict than at the beginning. Therefore, this has also opened a gap for the commercial development of Wangfujing, Xidan and Dongdan. Especially outside the Donghua Gate appeared market trade, small traders and small shops are increasing day by day. In the nineteenth year of Guangxu (1893), these small merchants and vendors moved to the original training ground on the east side of the road, that is

It is called "set", and the south is called "hui" or "field". In ancient China, there was a record of "the day is the city, to the people of the world, to gather the goods of the world, to trade and withdraw, and each is in its proper place." It can be seen that the market has been formed for a long time. Of course, there are rural markets in the countryside and urban markets in the cities. Rural markets are cyclical, and most of them are located in well-developed or convenient places. In history, the city market was influenced by the feudal tradition of "emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce", and only set up markets in some fixed places, and set up walls in these fixed places, and have special officials to manage. After the Song Dynasty, the wall was slowly dismantled, and the market changed from closed to open. By the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the bazaar had become a completely open market. The "city" of Beijing can be seen from the place names. Such as Dongda City, there are horse city, pig city, sheep city, lamp city, meat city, fish market, cloth city, fruit city, and so on. among

Since the relocation of the capital to Beijing, the "lighting custom" of "being filled with colorful buildings, attracting wealthy businessmen from all over the world, and putting lights on for ten days" has been inherited to the capital from Nanjing. According to historical data, the specific time of the lantern market is from the eighth day of the first month of the year to the eighteenth day of the first month of the year. Of course, Lantern city belongs to the market of the inner city, this market in the early Qing Dynasty to the middle of the Qing Dynasty once stopped, because the Manchu people in the inner city marked out a "eight flag residential area", and stipulated that the inner city should not carry out any commercial activities caused by. This has also contributed to the prosperity of many large-scale "cities" outside Beijing. The "city" of the outer city is concentrated near the "first three gates" of Chongwen Gate, Qianmen Gate and Xuanwumen Gate. For example, Chongwen Gate outside the "flower market", three days a month, every four on the "city". The main sales are some seasonal flowers, as well as various kinds of paper flowers and silk flower ornaments of ladies and ladies. The vegetable market outside Xuanwu Gate, or Caishikou, is said by some experts to be the oldest known market in Beijing. In addition, the Liulichang on the east side of Xuanwumen has formed a famous painting and calligraphy antique market in Beijing. The hutongs and alleys named after "city" can be said to be the most in Qianmen. On the east side of Qianmen Street are the meat market, the fish market and the hat market; On the west side, there are jewelry city, coal city, cylinder city, and Pearl City entrance at the south end of Qianmen Street, which was once a pig trading market in the Ming Dynasty. By the Qing Dynasty, the pig market was closed, forming a market mainly for selling jewelry.
