There is no public bus between Huangshan and Hongcun.
The best way I think is to transfer back to Tunxi from Huangshan, stay overnight there and visit Hongcun the next day.
There is direct bus between Tunxi and Hongcun.
Entrance fee of Hongcun: 80rmb.
The last bus Hongcun-Tunxi is around 16:00

Well there are regular buses Huangshan-Tunxi right at the bottom of Huangshan till late afternoon, you don't need to take a taxi, which is much more expensive.
You can choose to stay overnight in Tunxi or Hongcun. If you transfer directly to Hongcun from Huangshan, you have to pay so much for taxi, and you will reach Hongcun not earlier than late afternoon, coz it usually takes a whole morning for climbing down Huangshan, and then some hours for travelling Huangshan-Hongcun. And lastly you would not have enough time for exploring Hongcun which is a very beautiful village.
And you will miss the last bus Hongcun-Tunxi which departs around 16:00 and you will stay overnight in Hongcun.
I mean if you go to Hongcun directly from Huangshan, you will pay much more money and still would not save your time.

so do you think it is nearly impossible to leave huangshan (from the top of the mountian, our hotel is the Xihai hotel) early in the morning, take the cable car down, hitch a ride to hongcun on a taxi (at the bottom), visit hongcun for a few hours then head back to tunxi in time to catch a train that leaves at 930pm? i'm just trying to get a sense of how far hongcun is from the bottom of huangshan.

If you start very early, use taxi for the whole trip and don't mind just have a glance at each location, you can complete in 1 day.
