In the 20th year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty (1895), Li Guangzhong, a native of Liuzhuang, Luanxian County, Hebei Province, first discovered a pear tree with a history of 100 years. When Li Liangui fled to Lishu Town, he opened a "Xingshenghou" raw meat shop, mainly dealing in raw pork, sauced meat, pies and alcohol. According to legend, Gao Pinzhi, an old Chinese medicine doctor, told Li Liangui the secret recipe of making bacon with Chinese herbal medicines. Under the guidance of the old man, Li Liangui devoted himself to the research of dispensing medicine, selecting meat, cutting meat, nourishing soup, mixing noodles and cooking. Because the sauce meat of the Li family is clean and rotten, and the pie is soft and crisp, people who eat it are full of praise: the pie rolls bacon, which is not enough to eat, so it is often full in Lishu Town, which is very popular with the masses.

1924, died of illness, and his adopted son Li Yao (nephew, adopted by Li because he had no children) inherited his father's business, moved from Lishu Township to Siping with soup stock, and opened a bacon pie shop. Later, a branch was added in the northeast market of siping road.

1950, Li Chunsheng, the son of Li Yao, inherited his ancestral business, moved the Li Liangui bacon pie to Shenyang with an altar of soup stock, and opened a shop at the west end of the bustling Middle Street. During the ten-year turmoil, the shop was smashed and sold rice and cauldrons instead.

In April, 1979, the golden signboard of Li Liangui bacon cake shop was hung up again, which restored the traditional management mode and flavor and enjoyed a good reputation in Northeast China.

1984 12.30, Siping Catering Service Co., Ltd. registered the first "Li Liangui brand" special trademark in the State Trademark Office, confirming that Li Liangui Bacon School has the only legal qualification to use Li Liangui brand trademark. The enterprise also raised more than 200,000 yuan by itself, and registered international trademarks in six countries and regions including Japan, Russia and Hong Kong. This laid the foundation for "Li Liangui" to go global.

On March 7th, 1995, Li Liangui Flavor Restaurant registered the service trademark of "Li Liangui Brand" in the State Trademark Office. At this time, "Li Liangui" has the right to use two trademarks.

In August, 1996 launched a nationwide anti-counterfeiting campaign. More than 450 infringing shops were banned, and 26 shops were destroyed in Siping City alone. Nine infringing shops that refused to be cleaned up were prosecuted according to law, and all of them have won the case. Purify the market environment, improve the brand reputation and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of enterprises.

In August, 1998 vigorously developed chain operation based on the principles of "cleaning (using the fees collected in the cleaning process to meet the cleaning needs), combining off-site (taking off counterfeit brands and establishing chain stores at the same time), focusing on stations (mainly establishing as many chain stores as possible), ensuring quality, rational layout, improving efficiency and carrying forward". Up to now, 150 chain stores have been established in 22 provinces and cities (regions) in China, using "Li Liangui brand" commodity trademarks and service trademarks. Its chain speed and scale are unique in the whole province. The annual turnover of national chain stores is 270 million yuan, and it entered the top 100 catering enterprises in China in 2002. Using the celebrity effect, Deng Xiaoping Room and Li Peng Room were opened. According to the memories of the leading comrades who accompanied Deng Xiaoping and Li Peng for dinner, tables and chairs were copied in the restaurant at that time, and photos and historical profiles of relevant leaders in Siping City were hung, so that customers could know the history of Li Liangui brand development while eating.

Since 1950s, Deng Xiaoping, Chen Yun, Li Xuefeng, Yang, and other party and state leaders have all tasted bacon pies. Li Liangui bacon pie 1980 was rated as a high-quality flavor variety by Jilin provincial people's government, and 1997 was awarded the title of "China famous snack" and "famous trademark"! Li Liangui's son Li Yao's reminiscence article: Bacon School in Li Liangui (originally published in Siping CPPCC Literature and History Materials (the first series), page 44).

Li Liangui School, named after its founder. In the 20th year of Guangxu reign, my stepfather Li Liangui made a living from Luanxian County, Hebei Province, went to Guangdong and settled in Lishu County. He opened a "Xingshenghou" raw meat shop in Lishu County, which also deals in cooked meat and blue cakes. In order to get business, we have carefully studied the habits of people in Northeast China who like to eat roasted, roasted, smoked and fried products, and constantly improved the production technology of cooked meat and blue cakes. With the help of traditional Chinese medicine, we added more than ten kinds of Chinese herbal pieces as spices in the smoking process, and initially formed the operation standard of bacon cake.

1924, my father Li Liangui died, so I inherited his father's business and moved to Siping, where I made Li Liangui's signature.

It is the result of my father's long-term management of restaurants. Through continuous exploration and research, he gradually summed up his experience and made such a unique bacon pie. Li Liangui bacon pie is not only famous in Northeast China, but also unique in China. In the old society, we kept it absolutely secret and didn't tell anyone at all to monopolize profits.

When Bacon Pie was founded, it only made ordinary cakes and bacon. The store is small, with few customers and, of course, little profit. My ancestors tried to support their families. In order to make a fortune, I use my brains and try my best to improve the quality of food. After years of thinking and practice, the quality of bacon pie has finally improved. So gradually, after customers have tasted it, they all think that our bacon pie is unique, with special flavor and pleasant smell, and they are full of praise. They spread the words "two" and "two" and "three", so customers like a day more and more. Some people regard it as a gift. Therefore, it is well known. In the Republic of China and the Puppet Manchuria, commerce flourished. Although it is not crowded, the small room in our shop is full.

Our management method is also different from other hotels. They come and go from day to night and make a lot of noise. Our shop only opens at ten in the morning, closes at three or four in the afternoon, and becomes quiet at night. We only sell one bite of pork bacon a day and never kill or cook more. If we sell more, we will provide more services, and those who come late will have to find another place to eat. But the profit is by no means lower than theirs.

The key to the success of our store is to improve the quality of bacon and pies. Improving the quality of bacon pie lies in paying attention to the quality of raw meat. For example, we smoke enough meat to kill our own pigs, and we will never buy meat outside because we are afraid of buying sick pigs or inferior meat. Even if the meat I bought is good enough for pigs, I'm afraid it won't fade and my skin is hairy. That will ruin the reputation of our shop. If reputation is damaged, economic resources will be damaged. Therefore, sick pigs and bad meat are our most taboo.

During the Puppet Manchuria, we added another place in the northeast market of siping road. At that time, the Japanese invaders imposed economic oppression for plunder and were not allowed to kill pigs themselves. Therefore, we must go to the butcher shop to buy meat. Whoever has good meat will buy it. If the meat is not good, we will never buy it and have to close it in large quantities. Although employees are paid for not starting business, they are still full of dissatisfaction. Because he can get a tip of five or six yuan a day for his work, which is several times higher than their daily salary. They said to the outside world, "Our shopkeepers are so special. They don't have good meat, so they won't accept business unless they make money." In this way, it helps us a lot and the store has a good reputation. Furthermore, customers come to our store to see that our bacon is very different from that in other places, and the leather bag is golden and transparent; When eating, the fat is tender and smooth, fat but not greasy; Lean meat is delicious and delicious, which makes people never tire of eating it. As a result, more people come every day, profits increase every day, and shops gradually prosper.

1950 my son Li Chunsheng opened another one in Shenyang. In order to keep the traditional characteristics of Li's bacon pie, Li Chunsheng is meticulous in making and selecting ingredients. When he chooses pork, he uses fresh pork from the front trough to the ribs, then washes it with water and alkali, and soaks it in clear water for 6- 10 hours to remove blood and foul smell, then cuts it into cubes and stews it in a pot. In summer and autumn, fennel will be added to make the sauce meat more tender and delicious. At the same time, pour the broth, boil it over high fire, and simmer it over low fire, so that the meat can be turned up and down, and foam can be thrown out in time. When the meat is cooked, take it out, drain the oil, and dry it with brown sugar in a smoking pot for smoking. Cake is made by adding broth, salt and seasoning to flour to form soft dough. Wake up for a long time, roll oil. It was rolled several times and then baked into a cake. Its characteristics are that bacon is fat but not greasy, thin but not firewood, fragrant and red; The pie is yellow and fragrant, soft inside and crisp outside with many layers. Carry forward our old traditional business methods, adhere to the credibility and ensure the quality of cakes and meat, so the business is booming and famous at home and abroad. Shenyang is the political, economic and cultural center of northeast China. The establishment of Li Liangui Bacon Cake Shop in Shenyang laid an important foundation for Li Liangui to go to the whole country.

General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee Deng Xiaoping visited Pingping on 1958. After tasting, he praised: "It's economical, simple and delicious." The following year, Chinese leader Chen Yun praised him for his "unique flavor" when he visited the province.

1959. I visited Beijing at the invitation of the exchange office. In the Oriental Hotel, the Communication Office called the technicians of major hotels to learn from me. After half a month, I patiently taught them the operation method and ingredients. Beijing leaders, hotel managers, secretaries, company secretaries, etc. Everyone came to the scene to taste and was well received. After returning to Ping, the leaders of our city encouraged me to continue my study and make contributions to the socialist construction of the motherland and the improvement of people's living standards.

The above materials were dictated by Li Liangui's son Li Yao (Li Liangui's nephew, adopted as a son because Li Liangui had no children). He was the manager of Siping Station Hotel before his death. According to him, when Zhang Shoushan, an old artist, came to the era of peace, he said admiringly after eating bacon pies: "I have been performing arts everywhere, and I have traveled all over the major cities in the north and south. I just think your bacon pie is particularly delicious. It couldn't be better! " In fact, the Bacon School in Li Liangui is well-known because they study hard and keep exploring, but they can keep their flavor. If you use meat, the old pig doesn't need it, and neither does the pig. Being fat and thin is always appropriate. As far as slaughtering pigs is concerned, the main technique is to strive for perfection without a hair. As far as cook the meat is concerned, what he pursues is temperature, hard and rotten, fat but not greasy, thin but not firewood; As far as ingredients are concerned, after years of exploration, five drugs with the strongest fragrance have been selected; As far as making cakes is concerned, we should moderately combine crispness with water and pay equal attention to the temperature of pancakes and bacon. Speaking of careful research, Manager Li is an expert in killing pigs. Be good at distinguishing the quality of meat. In order to chop a dozen mouthfuls of pork into smaller pieces and mix them together, we can also pick out these mixed pieces and put them back in the original pork pile. When it comes to features, the most prominent ones are soup, cook the meat and facial use. If it's missing, make it up. The longer the year, the better. Because of this, it can enjoy a good reputation.
