According to folklore, at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth, there were no human beings on the earth. It was Nu Wa who kneaded the loess into a ball and made people. She is busy and tired, and despite her best efforts, she still can't keep up with the supply. So she picked up the rope and threw it into the mud. When she lifted the rope and threw it out, the mud fell to the ground and became a person. Later generations said that the rich were made of loess by Nu Wa, and the poor were just made of rope dipped in mud and scattered on the ground by Nu Wa.
Original text:
As the saying goes, there is no one, and Nu Wa is human. The audience sat, unable to cope with the supply, just holding the rope in the mud, like a man. Therefore, the rich are all loess people; The poor attract people.
