The custom of Jingxian people eating a lot of rice noodles has been circulating for five or six hundred years. In the early years of Yongle, a group of Shanxi immigrants, mostly surnamed Li, moved to a place not far from Lian Town to settle down. The land here is barren, and residents surnamed Li make a living by setting up food stalls (local people also classify vermicelli into this category) and doing vermicelli business. They spread the powder and then sell it in markets such as Lian Zhen and Sun Zhen. Because of its fine workmanship, good taste and sufficient weight, it soon became famous, and people named the village Dali. Later, Dali gradually evolved into Dazhuang.
