The design specially breaks a lot of conventional thinking, such as the sub-book, which is divided into categories according to the chapters of "agriculture, people's livelihood, agriculture and sideline, agricultural accounts, and agricultural administration", so that the whole set of books is more in line with the aesthetic needs of modern people. In order to get closer to the temperament of the "file", a fully enclosed book cover is designed. After readers get the book, they need to use a "hand tearing" action to open the book. This kind of participation behavior allows readers to appreciate the experience of "opening files. In addition, some long-standing agricultural symbols such as "Suzhou Code" and some art fonts that were only used in those specific eras were extracted from the files collected by Liu Songtai, recombined and listed on the envelope, thus making the charm of life in a specific era clear on the paper.
