Features: This is a unique historical book. The uniqueness of this book lies in the fact that it is absolutely not a traditional, courtly-style history book. The uniqueness of this book lies in the history it tells—folk, domestic, and grassroots. Even the author's username "Zhao Fu" when publishing this series of texts online carries a folk charm reminiscent of Huishan clay figurines. The uniqueness of this book lies in how perfectly it combines history and storytelling. —Is this because the need to hear stories is one that has accompanied us from cradle to grave? In any case, it received an extremely wide response online. Haha, if you don’t believe it, you can search for it online:). Another uniqueness of this book is that it doesn’t need "meaning," "value," or such nonsense. Otherwise, it would be like building a medieval castle in the natural landscapes of southern China, which would feel eerie. Let’s just leave it at that—you can also consider it an introduction. Now, let’s grab a stool and continue listening as Zhao Fu tells his stories.
