    • 1990, E. B. Vermeer, editor, Development and Decline of Fukien Province in the 17th and 18th Centuries[1], E.J. Brill, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 263:
      To me neither of these views appear mutually exclusive, and thus, without denying Cheng Chih-lung either a cosmopolitan outlook or a strong quick-witted personality, I see him rather as a son of his people, an off-shoot of the Shih-ching peninsula based family-tree firmly anchored by clan alliances with the neighbouring ports of Liu-wu-tien and An-hai in Ch'üan-chou prefecture.
