Li Xiangdong lived a wealthy life until sixty, with a house full of children and grandchildren, but one day he was sent to the heavens by the two green hats his wife gave him.
When he opened ...
Perhaps, this person's arrival can change the future of Huichuan County!
He clearly remembered that the secretary of the Huichuan County Party Committee in his previous life was named He Dayu. The ten years that Secretary He was in office were the most stagnant ten years in the history of Huichuan County.
For those ten years, every household was forced to abandon its capitalist ways, and no poultry or livestock were allowed to be raised. The black market was strictly cracked down on, and every farmer was firmly tied to the land that could not feed them, day after day, year after year.
This Secretary He, who tightly controlled the lives, deaths, and old age of over 300,000 people in Huichuan County, was known as "King He the Devil" among the locals. There's even a children's song that goes like that.
"He Yanwang, you meddle too much."
Every family lives in a small earthen house.
Elm surface, Guanyin clay,
Their bellies were pounding like drums.
The elm bark flour mentioned in this jingle is made from elm bark. Although it tastes bad, it won't kill you.
Guanyin clay is a type of kaolin clay. This type of clay is like wheat flour, both white and fine. It can also be kneaded into a dough and baked into pancakes, just like wheat flour.
You don't need to add oil when making pancakes; just put them directly into a hot pan. They will smell fragrant after they are cooked, but they are dry and sticky when you eat them. You have to keep drinking water to wash away the dirt stuck in your throat.
This kind of pancake shouldn't be eaten in large quantities. Eating too much will cause indigestion and accumulate in the body, making the stomach bloated. When you tap it, it makes a "boom boom boom" sound, like hitting a big drum.
A person ate Guanyin clay but couldn't defecate, and eventually died from constipation.
In those days when the spring breeze had already quietly blown in, Huichuan County was like a tightly sealed tin drum, continuing its unchanging and impoverished life.
