Historical story There was no steamed buns to eat in the south due to the disaster. An official said it was better to eat meat.

During the reign of Emperor Hui of the Jin Dynasty, a famine occurred one year. The people had no food to eat and had to dig grass roots and eat Guanyin soil. Many people starved to death. The news was quickly reported to the palace. Emperor Hui of Jin was greatly puzzled after listening to the minister's report while sitting on the high throne. The "kind" Emperor Hui of Jin wanted to do something for his people. After thinking hard, he finally came up with a "solution": "The people don't have chestnuts or rice to satisfy their hunger. Why not eat minced meat?" (The people are hungry and have no rice. If you want to eat, why not eat meat porridge? )
