Where does the name Liuzhi Special Zone of Liupanshui City come from?

Liuzhi "Liuzhi" as a place name began when Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty was undergoing large-scale land reform in Guizhou. In the ninth year of Yongzheng (1731), the Qing government established Langdai Hall on the lands of the Longguan family of Langdai, the Sha family of Xibao, the Wen family of the deputy chief of Xibao and part of Yongning (now Guanling County). After the hall was officially established, the territory was divided into seven branches: Langdai is the main branch in the southwest corner, the lower branch is in the north, the Xibaozhi is in the east, the upper branch is in the north -west, the upper branch is to the northwest. The Huachu branch is in the northeast and the Mugang branch is in the southeast corner, there are six branches between the upper, lower, Ben and Xibao branches. During the Daoguang period, Qizhi was changed to Shili, and Liuzhi was retained as the town name and isbecame the administrative seat of Heli, one of Shili. After the Republic of China, this place served as the seat of the district administration. After liberation, with the completion of roads and railways and the construction of coal mines, the economic advantages of Liuzhi gradually became obvious. In May 1960, Langdai County was removed from the city and Liuzhi Town was established, with the municipal government based in Liuzhixiayingpan. In 1962, during the national economic adjustment, most coal mines were closed and Liuzhi was upgraded from a city to a county. In 1965, the “construction of the third front” came into being. In November, the Liuzhi Mining Zone was established. In February this year, it was renamed Liuzhi Special Economic Zone, renamed Langdai County, and the government returned to Langdai. In December 1970, Langdai County and Liuzhi Special Administrative Region were merged.é, and subsequently they were always called Liuzhi Special Administrative Region.
