Speaking of dried radish, some people can't help it: I already knew.
You know what?
I'm talking about a knife in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City, planting dried radish.
In that year, the Qianlong Emperor went south to inspect and led the soldiers to live in a small town in Xiaoshan, and he encountered big trouble. The sergeants could not eat, they were sick and bedridden, and there were a large number of people accompanying the sergeants, and there was not enough medical treatment guaranteed. The Qianlong Emperor was not in a hurry? His entourage was more anxious than Qianlong.
So he urgently sent someone to the local area to search for it. The old farmer pointed out: Use the dried radish to boil the soup several times, you can solve.
His entourage was suspicious, and there was no other good way to do it anyway, and there was no way for a dead horse to be a living horse doctor. According to the instructions of the old man, they boiled Xiaoshan's dried radish into soup with a knife, and the sergeants drank it three times, and as a result, their bodies recovered their health, and the food was also scrambled to eat, and they were all energetic and jumping around. Qianlong was overjoyed and praised the role of a knife in planting dried radish.
Since then, Xiaoshan's reputation for planting dried radish with a knife has been greatly enhanced.
Historically documented.
During the Tang Tianbao period (742 AD), Yuji was officially renamed Xiaoshan, and in 589 AD, Qiantang County was officially renamed Hangzhou.
The city opposite the West Lake of Hangzhou across the Qiantang River is Xiaoshan.
Qin Shi Huang unified China in 26 years, and (221 BC) Xiaoshan was under the jurisdiction of Huiji. In the second year of the Western Han Dynasty, (2 AD), the county was established as Yuji, which was under the jurisdiction of Huiji County. In 222 AD, Sun Quan became emperor and changed its name to Yuji County, and in the first year of Tang Tianbao(742 AD), it was renamed Xiaoshan.
Before Xiaoshan established the county in 2 AD, Xiaoshan had been planting and processing dried radish for countless years.

The Qianlong Emperor's entourage of soldiers who inspected Jiangnan encountered a collective illness and was anxious to upset Qianlong, using the practical experience accumulated by the people: that is, boiling Xiaoshan radish into soup and drinking it several times, the disease was eliminated. Qianlong was overjoyed and full of praise. He praised this, and since then, Xiaoshan's knife planting dried radish has become famous and prosperous.
