村井龍 Lungchingtsun
Lungchingtsun (Dragon Well Village), situated lat. 42 deg. 46 min. N. and long deg. 25 min. E. from Gr., is one of the trade marts opened on 1st January, 1910, under the Chino-Korean Frontier Agreement of 4th September, 1909. The mart has a population of about 5,500 inhabitants composed of about 4,000 Koreans, 1,200 Chinese, and 506 Japanese. Situated in a fertile plain its exports are agricultural products: millet, kaoliang, maize, wheat, barley, and beans; also native spirits from local distilleries. There are promising mining possibilities (coal, copper, silver, and gold) waiting development. The trade-by carts and mules-is mainly via Seishin to and from Korea. The principal imports are kerosene oil, matches, cotton goods, and Japanese sundries. The value of the trade coming under the cognisance of the Customs was Hk. Tls. 1,281,113 in 1917 as compared with Hk. Tls. 643,635 in 1916 and Hk. Tls. 443,065 in 1915. With better means of communication, improved banking facilities and currency, trade is likely to improve considerably.
