Nanjing, the jianghu people call "duck capital" because they can eat duck so much!
According to incomplete statistics, Nanjing people can eat 100 million ducks a year, if a duck is 40 centimeters long, then the ducks eaten by Nanjing people are just around the earth! Yes, it's just a lap, I did!
Nanjing people eat duck that is a tradition since ancient times Figure/Network
Wonder why nanjing people love duck so much? Legend has it, this was forced by Zhu Yuanzhang!
Zhu Yuanzhang looked confused: Huh? Shut up my ass!
Zhu Yuanzhang: ???? What's the matter with me! Graph/Network
At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to build a city gate tower, and we all know that in the architectural culture of the north, the "gate tower" is the façade, and no matter how the gate tower is, it must be beautiful, atmospheric and rich. But it is the evil door, this city gate tower has been collapsing, Zhu Yuanzhang is also very puzzling, just look for the master to see what is going on. When the master came to see this, he was shocked!
Is the gatehouse still repaired? repair! Graph/Network
The master said: Woñima! "Long live Grandpa, there is a monster with a particularly large appetite under this city gate, and he has eaten all the bricks of the city gate!"
The master also said that only Shen Wansan's cornucopia could continuously emerge from the bricks and stones.
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately sent someone to find Shen Wansan to borrow the cornucopia, and also made a note: Wansan, tomorrow five more I will return the cornucopia to you!
Shen Wansan pondered, the emperor can't play LaiPi, a pat on the thigh, OK, borrow! It was like lending it to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Cornucopia is a good baby! Graph/Network
It is also strange to say that the cornucopia is buried under the city gate, and this city gate really does not collapse like this. Zhu Yuanzhang took a look, good baby, what is this! So he had a plan!
Promise five more days to return, then there is no need to pay back without five more days, so Zhu Yuanzhang ordered that the fight can only be until the fourth change. All the chickens that were crowing in the fifth day were slaughtered! In this way, Nanjing has no five more days! People in Nanjing don't have chickens to eat!
The ducks of Nanjing are dumbfounded and do not know their next fate Figure/Network
After the duck came and asked my neighbor, what about the chickens? A group of people looked at the ducks with their eyes glued! Well, the people of Nanjing have changed to eating duck at this point! Since then, no duck has been able to get out of Nanjing alive!
Of course, such a wild history is also a happy picture, Nanjing people eat duck and the local environment is inseparable.
