The origin of broom dustpan

As early as 4000 years ago in the Xia Dynasty, a man named Shao Kang happened to see an injured pheasant dragging its body forward, where the dust was much less. He thought it must be the feather, so he caught some pheasants, plucked their hair and made the first broom. This is also the origin of feather dusters. Because the chicken feathers used were too soft and wear-resistant, Shao Kang changed bamboo sticks and grass into durable brooms.

The dustpan is a tool used by people to carry sand, stones, feces, soil and so on. A long time ago. Now it generally has two functions: one is a tool made of rattan, which is used to knock against and remove impurities in grain, and the other is an iron or plastic tool, which is used to collect and transport garbage.
