The salt merchants in Huizhou reflected the close relationship between government officials and businessmen. Because of the monopoly of the salt industry and the close relationship with the government, salt merchants were often government officials who possessed both the capital and the power. During Qianlong Period in Qing Dynasty, Wang Yinggeng, Wang Tingzhang, Jiang Chun, Bao Zhidao, etc. were all big merchants in the areas north and south of Huai River. It was said that Jiang Chun, a well-known salt merchant in Huizhou, built a white pagoda overnight on the Slender West Lake in Yangzhou to welcome Emperor Qianlong.

The archway gradually evolved into a commemorative building with hanging plates and plaques in the late period of ancient Chinese society. In Ming and Qing Dynasties, the recognition function of the archway was developed to the utmost. This commendation must be approved by the emperor, to honor ministers who had meritorious service to the country or to memorialize hardworking men, and to promote the traditional Chinese family virtues of obeying filial piety and respecting the husband.

The building of memorial archways is not a simple civil architecture activity. It should be approved by the emperor to award someone for their outstanding achievements. The approvals were widely used for different purposes like “enci”, “enrong”, “yuci” and “shengzhi” etc.
