Idioms and allusions

[source] Shen Kuo of Song Dynasty wrote in MengXiBiTan Magic: "if you look at it carefully, it's a group of small clams. Comparing scales, you can plan and consolidate them." [example] in the west of Jinfu City, the spring is in the flat land, with a few feet of snow and a sound like thunder. The spring has three caves, and the scale is different. It needs a little manpower. Volume 2 of Ruan Yuan's xiaocanglang Bi Tan in Qing Dynasty
