距泉州城南约二十多华里的海滨,有一个乡,叫陈埭,又名陈江。相传其地本来是一大片海滩,既无田园,也无人居。五代时,陈洪进在闽做节度使,在其处令民筑埭围海垦植。自此以后,才逐渐有人在那里居住,因此就名叫陈埭。《泉州府志》卷九,“水利·陈埭”条说:“陈埭,五代陈洪进所筑,其埭最大,合南浦诸水为陡门,通归大海,南洋田多仰焉”。 About 20 from the south of Quanzhou Huarui beach, there is a township, called Chen Kui, also known as Chen Jiang. According to legend, it was originally a large beach, neither pastoral nor Habitat. During the Five Dynasties, Chen Hongjin made a funeral mission in Minhou and ordered the people to build a land reclamation plantation in his place. Since then, some people gradually lived there, so named Chen Kui. “Quanzhou Volunteers,” Volume IX, “Water Chen Shuban,” said: “Chen Shao, the five generations of Chen Hong Jin built, the largest of its largest, co-Nanpu water for the steep door, pass the sea, Nanyang Tin and more Yan Yan ”.
