Before the founding of PRC, Nanshi was also called "Sanbuguan", which means that nothing is illegal. All trades were prospering, including opium, gambling, prostitution, street performances, snacks, etc. The streets were narrow with shabby houses. Nanshi was actually a haven for all kinds of evils.
