The origin of Zaozhuang's name?

Resident Zaozhuang, a village formed in the Tang and Song Dynasties, was named Zaozhuang because of the large number of jujube trees.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the imperial court allowed private mining, and in the area of Songlu (now the central area of Zaozhuang), "villagers dug mountains to get stones, used grinding as grinding, and dug wells to get coal for salary". With the exploitation of coal, immigrants gradually moved to live around "Yao Bei Kiln". In various settlements, people either use surnames or names such as village records. The more famous villages are: Jinzhuang, Sanhezhuang, Zaozhuang (named after a jujube forest at the head of the village) and so on. In the thirty-fourth year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty (1908), the company was invited to establish "Shandong Yixian Zhongxing Coal Mine Co., Ltd.", referred to as "Zhongxing Company". In the first year of the Republic of China (19 12), ZTE's articles of association were formally implemented, which stipulated that "the company's general mine is located in the north of Zaozhuang, Yicheng County". At this point, Zaozhuang place names began to become famous in the society.
