明代以前,德州在中国历史上一直是一个默默无闻的政治性浓厚的小城,明清时期大运河全线贯通,为了便于漕运,政府在德州设立水次仓,并建立大型码头,使得德州成为漕运的重要中转站和南北经济文化交流的中心从而推动了德州城市的发展,铸就了德州的辉煌历史。 Before the Ming Dynasty, Texas had always been an obscure town of strong politics in Chinese history. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Grand Canal ran through the entire river. In order to facilitate water transport, the government set up a water storage bunker in Texas and set up a large wharf to make Texas an important water transport. Transfer station and the center of economic and cultural exchanges between North and South thus promote the development of Texas city, molded the glorious history of Texas.
