Korea's introduction

According to legend, Korea was still in the sea of Wang Yang before the Song Dynasty. When the Xijiang River passed through this place, it was blocked by the Dagang Mountain in Xiaohuangpu, and the flow rate of the river slowed down, and a large amount of sediment was deposited here. Over time, it accumulated into a deserted beach. Gao Liyuan is uninhabited. Until the Qing Dynasty, the residents of Xiaohuangpu changed the beach to make farmland, so the agricultural model of "hanging farmland" appeared, planting litchi, longan, orange, tangerine and other fruit trees.

Korea is sparsely populated. In order to develop agricultural production in Korea, local landlords recruited technical talents from Xinhui, Lille, Jiangmen and other places to plant litchi and manage fields. A large number of land was also leased to farmers for farming, so a large number of family boats came to rent land for farming from Panyu, Zhongshan and Shunde. Because there was no permanent residence at that time, farmers built some simple thatched cottages by the river as temporary shelters. Because the service farmers come from all directions, there are different languages, new dialogues, rituals, Tanzhou dialect and water dialect. ...

Korea is low-lying and has to be soaked twice every three years. Landlords and rich households have built more than 20 dikes in Gaosha residential area, 60 mu area, Moss area, Dayi area, public welfare area, Yi Tong area, Guicheng area, Qiubing area, Yong 'an area, Rong 'an area, Jincheng area, Henghe area and Lianhuage area for their own economic benefits.

During the Japanese invasion of China, Korean villagers suffered from war. According to local memories, Ding Mou of William Thomas Mercer, the ninth district of Zhongshan, dominated Korea with a few broken guns, bullied the people and villagers, and opened a company called Hehe in Li Mao, which became a place integrating smoking, gambling and pornography. He also extorted the fare of meal tickets from the villagers, set up two checkpoints in Gaoshahe, and imposed protection fees on ships coming and going here. At that time, agricultural production technology was backward and villagers lived in poverty. Many people have to go fishing to help make up for their families. Fishing has become an important source of family life. At that time, there were thirty or forty fishing boats in the village.
