Mahjong, also known as sparrow, originated from the protection of grain tiles. In ancient times, there was a royal granary in Taicang, Jiangsu Province, which lost a lot of money due to sparrow infestation, and the administrators used bamboo to make chip tiles, with which they rewarded sparrow hunters.

The main mahjong tiles are "ten thousand, bunch, tube". The "tube" is the gun barrel, a few tubes means a few gunpowder guns. The "bundle" is a bird strung up with a thin bundle of rope, so the pattern of "a rope" is represented by a bird, and a few ropes are a few bundles of birds. "Wan" is the unit of reward money, tens of thousands is the number of reward money. In addition, "east, south, west, north" "in, white, hair" has its own meaning.
