Brief introduction of Zhangji township

Zhang Buddha's martial arts are extremely high. He followed Zhu Yuanzhang to destroy Yuan and prosper Ming, risking his life. After Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor, he repeatedly recited Zhang Buddha and made meritorious deeds to rescue the driver. The official named him the imperial general. However, Zhang Buddha is a careless person, illiterate, accustomed to the life of hooligans, unwilling to live in official positions, and repeatedly begged to be dismissed from office and returned to the field. Zhu Yuanzhang was eager to see Zhang Buddha return home, and gave him twenty-two thousand silver, so that Zhang Buddha could return home to repair his grave and worship his ancestors and build a manor. And give the court a fluorene board, so that Zhang Buddha can go to court to meet the saints at any time.

Zhang Buddha returned to Taiping Township and built his own manor, named Dejizhuang. The villagers call Zhang Wei or Zhang Jialou. However, not long after, the battle of Jingnan broke out, and Taiping Township was not spared. The villagers died and fled, almost breaking people. Taiping village is not peaceful, and its name is gradually forgotten. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, only Zhang or Zhang Gulou was left in people's memory. In the Qing Dynasty, Zhang was the only official road from Shanxi to Shandong, and it was the only place for merchants to travel between Shanxi and Shandong, which gradually formed an economic and trade center. Most of them are blacksmiths, and the surrounding villagers come here to build farm tools and daily necessities. It is the largest iron goods market in the Hebei-Shandong-Henan border region. The name of the township was officially named Zhang Tieji by the Qing government from the original Zhang, and it has been called Zhang Tieji ever since.
