Poems praising New Yancheng

Song of Boiling Salt by Liu Yong in Northern Song Dynasty

Where are the people who cook the sea camp? Women have no silkworms, no weavers and no plowmen.

Why are food and clothing sources scarce? If you cook in a prison basin, you will lose the right to tax.

Is the spring and summer tide full every year? The low tide blew the mud into islands;

After air drying, salt flavor is added, and the tidal wave at the initial stage of irrigation becomes brine.

Under the dragon farming salt is not idle, firewood into the infinite mountains;

The leopard can't avoid the trail of the tiger, making it at sunrise and returning at sunset;

The ship's shoulders don't rest, and the weather is hot;

When it burns in the morning and accumulates at dusk, the waves turn into snow.
