Three stamps with the grey blue or blue black overprint.  Kerr and Chan both only show one colour, the grey/blue. The overprint reads 中華民國 Chinese Republic.

Shown above are all the stamps known for this village.

 
These stamps have been identified by using Volume II of the Stamp Catalogue of China by Shui-Hon Chan and the four booklet guide The Local Overprinted Stamps of Manchuria 1945-7 by Allen D Kerr (published 1978 and now out of print). Both works are essential for anyone delving seriously into this subject.
