"Clear soup and cake" is a unique gourmet snack in Jingdezhen. "Clear soup" is called "flat food" by Jingdezhen locals. "Flat food" is not considered as food, because the definition of food is: when using natural raw materials, in order to obtain more and richer taste beauty, according to a certain purpose and following a certain law, food raw materials are processed and transformed. Moreover, it permeates the creator's aesthetic consciousness and can make the receiver have a sense of taste. However, "clear soup and cake" belongs to gourmet snacks. Why? Because there is a well-known legend here.

In the 16th year of Qianlong in Qing Dynasty (AD 1751), in the spring and March, Qianlong went down to the south of the Yangtze River to Hangzhou for the first time. The governor of Hangzhou has already received a report from Beijing that the holy one will come soon. In order to please the emperor, he sent a letter to the Daxing Commercial City in Hangzhou, and at that time, famous teas, famous silks and famous porcelain from all over the country gathered in Hangzhou.

Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Factory also selected various treasures and markets, and a group of 19 people led by Tao Guan Yunzhe went there. Yunzhe is a Manchu, from the seven products, and he has no shelf. He has a strong friendship with Li Jinchun, a scholar who opened a noodle restaurant. Among the entourage, Yunzhe took him with him to broaden his horizons. Secondly, Yunzhe is a northerner and likes his pasta very much. He is used to eating it for almost a day.

This Li Jinchun's surname is not Li, but Cao. His ancestral home is from Cao Village, northeast town of Fuliang, Jingdezhen. After his ancestors were a legacy of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing army was defeated and captured in 1621 AD, and became a slave under Dourgen, and later served as a Qinbing. In the first year of Shunzhi in Qing Dynasty (AD 1646), he entered Beijing, and in the eighth year of Shunzhi (AD 1651), after the death of Regent Dourgen, Li Jinchun's great-grandfather entered the office of the Interior Ministry. When he was transferred to Jiangsu and Zhejiang as an official, Kangxi's four southern tours caused a deficit in the government's silver, and he was dismissed by the Governor of Liangjiang in the first year of Yongzheng. In the early summer of the sixth year of Yongzheng, his great-grandfather adopted Cao Xian, the father of Li Jinchun, to his good friend Li Jiawei before his death, and soon the Li family was ruined by something. As a last resort, Cao Xian (renamed "Li Xian") returned to Fuliang, Jiangxi Province, and was embarrassed to return to his hometown in Cao Cun because of his family's decline. Li Xian got married in Jingdezhen and gave birth to a son and a daughter. His daughter Lin Chun was betrothed to others since childhood, and his son's name was Li Meng.

Li Jinchun has read thousands of books since he was a child. He is good at poetry and painting, and his talent is extraordinary. For various reasons, he just can't win the prize. When the house leaks and it rains, my parents die, and my family is not prosperous. Survival has become a big problem. Sister Lin Chun married Xiuning, Anhui Province, and when her family came down, she couldn't afford a servant. No one cooked for him, so she did it herself. Fortunately, he is intelligent by nature, "food is the most important thing for the people", and there is nothing to do, so the scholar has to study the study of gluttony. Rice-flour snacks, some fancy renovations, and occasional income, call friends and friends to taste them. Several good friends were full of praise, thinking that "having fun alone is not as good as having fun with many people", so they lent him some money, and in the long run, they opened a small noodle restaurant near the pier along the river in Mashi Lane, Jingdezhen. This Li Xiucai wears several hats himself, and the boss and the man bear it alone. Don't think that snacks are useless. The patrons are not only strangers who come here to work and "blank houses", but also people who come to Jingdezhen in the north to buy porcelain. Li Jinchun is open-minded, operating on a small budget, seeking only to maintain his wealth, and making friends, regardless of his background. The storefront is hung with the "Golden Spring Pavilion", and its own calligraphy works are all over the wall. There are many down-and-out painters among customers, and they can't help but feel itchy and give pictures. The busybody rewrote the names of various pastry foods, including a word "spring", such as "Yangchun noodles", "Spring rolls" and "Xuemei welcomes the spring".
