Tíxī

Tixi was a small native longship office in the wooded hills of eastern Guizhou, among the stream valleys west of Tongren. Under the Yuan it was counted among the longship offices belonging to the great Sizhou Xuanwei Commission of the Tian clan.

When the Ming dismantled Sizhou in 1413, Tixi was assigned, together with four sister offices, to the new Tongren Prefecture. Its mountain streams bore gold, and the Ming ran a gold-washing bureau at Taipingxi inside the chieftaincy's territory.
