因為茶金這部戲姜阿新洋樓近年來變得很火熱,主角張福吉原型就是人稱茶虎的姜阿新。164Please respect copyright.PENANAEHZst27n39
164Please respect copyright.PENANAL1OXgHt8Pk
如同劇中的張福吉,姜阿新本姓蔡,後被納入姜秀巒的老姜體系成為養子,自此開始他風光的前半生。164Please respect copyright.PENANAdSOE9x2zkx
164Please respect copyright.PENANAXEy3B7jUbR
為了接待外國茶商而興建這棟住商合一的洋樓,這種規格在當時台灣或許不算什麼,但在還是偏遠山區小村莊的北埔來說是棟豪華氣派的夢幻城堡。164Please respect copyright.PENANARyPVYtRIm9
164Please respect copyright.PENANAQx0hAu8IlQ
好景不常,由於局勢動盪加上過度舉債,姜阿新的永光公司宣布破產,這棟夢幻城堡也自此塵封。164Please respect copyright.PENANAEKMyqMgPov
164Please respect copyright.PENANAo8ZY33tZ8V
當時姜阿新舉家逃離北埔,不少北埔鄉親也受到牽連,因此鄉民對於這位「茶虎」其實褒貶不一。164Please respect copyright.PENANA3byJsplmGx
164Please respect copyright.PENANAaVqVanxUsG
姑且不論評論為何,這棟城堡最後在姜阿新後人的努力下於民國101年贖回。164Please respect copyright.PENANAmgAFmXSFMd
164Please respect copyright.PENANANBmkRw3IG0
那扇沈穩的木門於民國105年緩緩開啟,準備向世人訴說那段台灣茶葉風光的年代,還有茶虎姜阿新人生最顛峰的傳奇故事。164Please respect copyright.PENANAu9abAc4Bnp
164Please respect copyright.PENANAcwDsMkK2Gv
上面那段應該不像宣傳廣告的文案吧?(笑)164Please respect copyright.PENANAkOzbGcuVFi
164Please respect copyright.PENANAUgkl3sMk8Q
其實這位茶虎還有幾則故事,但我怕說了其他建築又說不完,只好就此打住。164Please respect copyright.PENANAo7N9YSXE8s

好了,接下來是鄧南光紀念館。164Please respect copyright.PENANA0a8pajZc5u
164Please respect copyright.PENANASerPJqh0n8
大家應該會想說,哇!終於可以逃離姜家的勢力,這次總不會和他們有關聯了吧?164Please respect copyright.PENANArIEI7PZEcb
164Please respect copyright.PENANAHsl5Q1qdOT
很抱歉,還是有關。164Please respect copyright.PENANAvLbqIN2un5
164Please respect copyright.PENANAooof8Th0Oh
鄧南光祖父姜滿堂(對,又是姜家)在輩分上得喊姜秀巒一聲伯父。滿堂娶了廣東籍的鄧氏,約定第一個孩子繼承鄧家,而這位鄧瑞坤即是鄧南光的父親。164Please respect copyright.PENANAU9qtwByvN8
164Please respect copyright.PENANAm8ftcHbTNx
鄧南光是日治時期的攝影先驅,但有關他的事蹟我想還是各位有空過來北埔走走時進入館中了解他的一生吧。164Please respect copyright.PENANAE6B08z8PBk
164Please respect copyright.PENANADSrnDRw7sz
這裡我想說說有關他祖父,姜滿堂的發跡傳奇。164Please respect copyright.PENANAWMVYV2OFAd
164Please respect copyright.PENANAufwrKXvX5y
一般說法中,姜滿堂原為一屠戶以殺豬為業,娶了幹練的鄧登妹後白手起家成立商號並購地致富。164Please respect copyright.PENANAbCXJqEa5C7
164Please respect copyright.PENANANgMtOumdYy
但當地還流傳了另一則傳說:164Please respect copyright.PENANAf4grRf4rLf
164Please respect copyright.PENANAFmpoNXVoWF
1895年,一群河南兵從台北挾帶大量錢財南下,行經北埔時託付給姜滿堂夫婦,待亂後會以半截扁擔為信物取回。164Please respect copyright.PENANAhOw9PqKGp6
164Please respect copyright.PENANAwK0p6cA9BB
眼見約定的時間已過,兩人打開那一籃籃竹籃才發現裡面滿是金銀財寶。164Please respect copyright.PENANA9SgGHT254u
164Please respect copyright.PENANAJkDXBpX6IM
在年初二祭祖時,夫婦二人擲筊問扁擔可否借用錢財,一旦有人持扁擔來取必定全數歸還。164Please respect copyright.PENANABvOndj7QKV
164Please respect copyright.PENANAv6qyJcp1jl
筊杯應聲落地,一陰一陽的聖筊躺在兩人面前,自此,姜滿堂夫婦便利用這筆錢財購地經商,開啟新姜的致富之路。164Please respect copyright.PENANAcwoqeAmcFB
164Please respect copyright.PENANARzCsf2lgbw
這幾位河南兵據說新姜後人逢年過節還是會祭拜,感謝當初這些恩人的佈施。164Please respect copyright.PENANA99xps0Tb5h
164Please respect copyright.PENANABtU21kwJse
還有一則關於新姜家族土地的傳說,據說大房一系曾經做過一次土地清算,土地權狀讓地政事務所的影印機足足運作了3.5小時才結束。164Please respect copyright.PENANAADsxJ94Bt6
164Please respect copyright.PENANAS4Px9tE20Y
真糟糕,說著說著又扯太多。看來只好在下集才能結束北埔紀行了。164Please respect copyright.PENANArd7sLfwJns
