【Taitung Attractions】The birthplace of the famous old-fashioned painkiller "Wufenzhu" // The town with the smallest population

"Headache, five points of beads", "Mouth toothache, five points of beads"!!! These lines should be familiar to those who are over 3 years old as advertising slogans in childhood!! (Five-point beads are currently discontinued) This painkiller, which was once so popular that it was exported abroad, actually came from The town with the least population - Guanshan Town! At that time, there were nearly 10 kinds of five-point beads, including those for headache, toothache, sore throat, joint pain, muscle pain, and menstrual pain. There were five-point beads for adults and five-point beads for children. As long as you had a headache, taking five-point beads would relieve the pain. Taking five-point beads "would not stop the disease from getting better" (it could not be cured). Compared with the current SSI cold medicine, Wufenzhu is absolutely no less effective!!!! (The former Yishengtang Pharmacy has now been renamed Fushengtang) The wooden house located on Zhongshan Road in Guanshan Town is the birthplace of the well-known painkiller "Wufenzhu" in the early years. (The former Yishengtang Pharmacy has now been renamed Fushengtang) This seemingly ordinary wooden house is now 100 years old! There is a sign with three umbrellas hanging at the entrance of Fushengtang. There is a banner on the window next door introducing the story. Fu Sheng Tang is still in business today. In the old wooden window you can still see the medicine packaging boxes that were common in childhood! The owner of the wooden house used a discontinued five-point bead medicine box as a hanging ornament. The boss said with a proud tone: The wooden medicine bucket is as old as the old wooden house, and is a hundred years old! The big abacus on the counter is over 80 years old!!! There is also a large thermometer on the display window. When the boss saw us looking at it, he told us that this thermometer is more than 80 years old and has been used for three generations and is still in good condition. I am very impressed by the quality of early Japanese-made items~~ When you look closer, you can see that it is made in Nagoya, and even the medical device store has a note about it, which is really detailed!! In the small wooden house, many items are still carrying countless memories~ #台东 #台东景点 #旅行酷体验
