Walking along the Wutong Wharf from Xiajin Bay, all the way through is a state of large-scale demolition. According to the development speed of Xiamen and the style of urban construction, it may be a prosperous area in less than 10 years. Fengtou She, near Wutong Lighthouse Park, is also in this wave of major demolition. However, the village is part of the planned Huandao Road. The future of this Linhai City Village will not be used to develop commercial real estate. In the future, it is more likely to develop into a fishing village and tourist town similar to Zengcuo. The village not only has the advantage of being close to the sea, but also has a small number of historical attractions, the most representative of which is the Zhou Wenxue Mansion at No. 148. This villa was built in 1930 and is the most typical modern Fanzi House in southern Fujian. The so-called Fanzilou is a combination of Chinese and Western style houses, and it was the most popular house and villa in the affluent circle of southern Fujian during the period of the Republic of China. At present, the most preserved are mainly concentrated in Quanzhou and Xiamen, among which Gulangyu is the most. Fengtou House itself belongs to the most remote eastern district of Xiamen. Before the demolition, it was a village in the city. On weekdays, except for the residents, not many outsiders entered. Therefore, few people have discovered this cultural relic unit that has been around for nearly a hundred years, and written materials about it are also very scarce. Wutong is an important port in eastern Xiamen. In addition to fishing, residents of nearby villages and towns also have a history of going south to sea. There are not many literature materials this week, only that he made a fortune in Nanyang and returned to his hometown during the Republic of China to build such a private mansion. However, no matter how specific Zhou Wen’s deeds and descendants of his family are, there are only blanks, and because there is no aboriginal in the demolished village, it is even more difficult to find out some information. The banner of the villa reads “Runan Yanpai” in four large characters. The two characters “Yanpai” are very common in ancient houses in southern Fujian and are a label for tracing the ancestral home. For example, the common “Jiangxia Liufang “It is worth saying that the ancestors of the Huang family came from Gujiangxia County in Hubei. This “Runan School” refers to Runan County in Zhumadian, Henan, and is mainly based on Zhou and Lan. This Zhou family is the oldest surname in China, and its ancestor can be traced back to Zhou Wenwang. And now Fujianese, whose ancestors mostly came from Henan, are descendants of the Central Plains. This Fengtou Society is also a village dominated by Zhou’s family. Behind the Zhou Literature House is its ancestral hall. The villa occupies a large area of more than 900 square meters. Calculated according to the land price in Xiamen, this old villa is really worth a lot of money. Coupled with the historical value of the cultural relics themselves, the price is really incalculable. However, the cultural relics are all protected, and no real estate business dared to move. But I can roughly speculate that the descendants of Zhou Wenxue do not come back. The property rights of this villa should belong to Xiamen, because Xiamen spent more than three million yuan to repair it last year. If it is a property of the owner, the cost is generally Private contracting. Objectively speaking, Zhou Wenxue’s house is still very grand. Although I stand outside the wall, from the design style of the mansion to the carvings and decorations on the walls of the building, I can see the courage, financial resources and taste of its owner. The villa you see now has been repaired. It was originally a dilapidated house due to factors such as war and time. However, it is not known how the interior has been repaired and whether there are any precious objects in it. Or because of the demolition, it is currently locked. Of course, the courtyard wall is not high, and it seems to be okay if you want to turn it in. However, considering the wires falling on the wall, I gave up this idea. In addition, under the corner, or used as a chicken coop by the neighbors nearby, although it seems that it has been moved for a long time, it still has an unpleasant smell. In addition to Gulangyu, there are many such Fanzilou in Xiamen. There are several in the city village vegetable market in Old Siming District alone, all of which are very precious Minnan cultural and historical buildings. And this old villa may have been low-key for nearly a hundred years before, but once the area is successfully transformed into a tourist town, it may become a popular niche attraction and the future landmark of Fengtou Society. This is why, a large number of surrounding houses have been demolished, and this villa and the ancestral hall at the back can stand upright and are protected!
