The Huang family located in Shennong Village, Lizai Neighbourhood, is part of the original Dazhi Community (a well-known wealthy family, where several ancestors had passed the imperial examination or were awarded the title of Gongsheng during the Qing Dynasty). There was a saying at that time that people from Huangcuo did not need to cross others' lands to reach Guanyin Mountain, indicating their wealth and influence. In front of the Huangcuo Sanzhaoyuan at Lane 143, Zhonghua Road, there is also a pair of flagpole stones (commonly known as the "Juren Stones"), where the examination families would raise their examination flags to declare their status and rank. Inside Huangcuo, there is still a preserved private sedan chair used by ancestors at that time, commonly known as the "Juren Chair."
