Cui Zhuang dong Zao

Cui Zhuang is a village in Taiping Town, Binhai New Area. The village is rich in winter dates. Cuizhuang Dongzao has a long-standing reputation, which is the best jujube. Cuizhuang Dongzao jujube is a tribute to the emperor because of its thin skin, small core and thick meat, crisp and sweet meat, so it is also called tribute jujube. Speaking of Cui Zhuang Dongzao, there is also a myth and legend, which adds romance and magic to Cui Zhuang Dongzao. According to legend, this fairy tale is related to the Monkey King, the Great Sage of Qi Tian, who caused havoc in Heaven. That time, the Queen Mother held a flat peach party in the Heavenly Palace, and all the immortals came to the Queen Mother to drink royal wine. 1 the Monkey King, the Great Sage of the Monkey, was not on the invitation list, so he was very angry and made a splash. Sun Dasheng went through the clouds and came to the Heavenly Palace to stir up the flat peach feast. The queen mother's royal wine spilled all over the floor, and the fairy fruit was scattered. Fairy fruit rolled down the fairy table, passed through the clouds and fell to the world, and landed in the countryside of Cui Zhuang. Fairy fruit took root and sprouted in Cui Zhuang and grew into a lush winter jujube tree. According to the relevant information, Cuizhuang Dongzao has a long history. As early as 1560, the Liu family in this village began to plant it. Later, after continuous research and many grafting, it finally succeeded and became a boutique. According to the Compendium of Materia Medica, Dongzao jujube has the effects of "sweet and nontoxic taste, controlling evil spirits, calming the middle energizer and strengthening the spleen, calming the stomach and opening the orifices, nourishing and beautifying the face, and prolonging life by taking it for a long time". According to legend, Cui Zhuang's winter jujube was once a tribute to the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and its name was dry for a while. Later, due to the war and famine, the winter jujube forest in Cuizhuang was destroyed, leaving little residue. It was not until the 1960 s that vitality began to appear again. At 0 o'clock, the winter jujube in Cuizhuang was destroyed again, and the rebel "would rather have socialist grass than capitalist jujube" and uprooted the winter jujube tree. Fortunately, Liu's family left a little. Nowadays, people meet the prosperous times, winter jujube trees meet the spring, and Cui Zhuang's winter jujube has become the golden egg for farmers to get rich. Jujube trees are full of vitality, setting a new record of 100 kilograms per plant. In 2000, during the strategic adjustment of agricultural industrial structure, Dagang developed and planted 100,000 mu of winter jujube with the goal of establishing leading industries and famous and special products. The lush winter jujube forest formed a landscape in the vast fields of Dagang, and Dagang winter jujube also rushed out of the country and went to the world. Cui Zhuang, the origin of winter jujube is more romantic with myths and legends. Cuizhuang Dongzao is a geographical indication certification trademark.
