Small ancient prose:
Some Chu people sold their pearls to Zheng, that is, Mulan's cabinet, smoked with cinnamon, decorated with pearl jade and rose jade. Zheng Guoren bought the jewelry box and returned the pearls. This can be said to be a best seller, but it is not a good pearl.
Translation:
There was a jeweler in the state of Chu who went to Zheng to sell jewelry. He carved a pearl box with precious Mulan, smoked it with spices made of cinnamon, and decorated it with jade, roses and jadeite. A man from Zheng bought this box, but returned the beads inside to him. It can be said that this jeweler is good at selling boxes, but not at selling jewelry.
Precautions:
1，for (Wéi): making。 Mulan: A kind of high-grade wood. Cabinet: This refers to the small box.
2, cinnamon: spices.
3. Zhu: embellishment.
4. Meggie: A beautiful jade.
5, large: modify the edge. Emerald: A kind of green "beautiful jade".
6. Rafter (dú): small box. There is also: return.
7. Yan (Yu): sell.
Revelation:
The original intention of buying bamboo slips and pearls is to buy a wooden box with pearls to return. Metaphor has no vision, improper choice, and secondary things are better than the main ones. Buying gifts and returning pearls is a derogatory term, and similar words are: putting the cart before the horse, putting the cart before the horse, negative salary, putting the cart before the horse, and improper choice. Zheng people have no foresight, make improper choices and strive for the last; Chu people over-packaged, putting the cart before the horse. Therefore, we should be clear about our priorities, and we should not make improper choices, put the cart before the horse, and usurp the host's role.
