Longfusi West Street, a big teahouse in the north of the road occupies the main position, which is relatively deserted. In the past, working people would go to teahouses when they were resting and waiting for their employers. Before liberation, all walks of life in Beijing, including various handicraft workshops, were generally completed by temporarily recruiting short-term workers after taking over the work, and rarely hired long-term workers. Every morning, coolies and laborers go to the market for employment, and skilled workers go to the teahouse for tea and wait for employment.

In addition, people who mediate disputes, pull houses and play drums and some buyers and sellers also talk about business and things in the teahouse. Teahouses are also places where some people with money and leisure spend their time. They play, play chess and chat with birds here.

The middle road starts from the first floor of the mountain gate, mostly selling bamboo and willow daily necessities. Such as homespun, bamboo willow, pot, bowl, ladle, ladle, curtain, etc.

Inside is the Wei Tuo Hall, which caught fire during Guangxu period and was not repaired. After the foundation of the hall was leveled, it became a venue for cultural performances. There are tricks, wrestling, storytelling, singing and other programs during the temple fair.

Further inside is a food stall with all kinds of Anhui dishes, such as bean juice, scones, cut cakes, sugar ears, old tofu and so on. And cheap.

The last floor of the middle road is the site of superstitious industry. There are fortune tellers, "iron mouths" and "fortune tellers". Those people are either wearing robes, jackets and reading glasses, or wearing a bun, hanging cranes and wearing the clothes of a little Taoist priest. Sitting there, watching, putting on airs, eloquently soliciting business. The more chaotic the war is, the more serious the natural and man-made disasters are, and the more money fortune-tellers can make.

There are also several stalls selling clay cake molds and foreign Cigarette Cards in this hospital. Mud cake molds are children's toys with figures and animal images, which are fired in loess and played by children with yellow mud. Foreign Cigarette Cards is a small picture attached to cigarettes.

A huqin is the size of a soybean, including wood, bamboo, animal bones and ivory, all of which are carefully carved and very beautiful. The size is related to the pronunciation of the huqin, so many piano musicians in the art world often buy it. In addition, there are stalls selling songbooks and snuff bottles.

There are many folk works on East Road. Especially when rushing to the temple fair, many folk artists performed live performances, such as kneading dough, selling shadow puppets, selling horsehair, selling kites, cutting paper and carving bricks.
