Duke Huan said, "Lvliang is to Qi, a thousand grains are to Qi, and bees are to sting, with teeth and lips. I want to go to Lvliang today, but what can I do? " Guan Zi said to him, "The folk custom in Lvliang is' ceremony'. If the public service wins, the left and right can take it, and the people can also take it. Because Gongming Qi didn't dare to do it, he had to look up to Lvliang. It was Lvliang who confessed his farming. " Huan Gong said, "Promise." That is, the grandson of Mount Tai will be offered on the 10th. Guan told Jia Ren of Lvliang: "I won a thousand horses for me and gave him 300 Jin of gold;" Even three thousand pounds of gold. " Is Lvliang don't give people, enough money. When King Lvliang heard about this, he taught his people to be prisoners. In March, the pipe made people in Lvliang, Lvliang and Guo Zhong dusty on the road, never meeting each other for ten steps, dragging their heels and riding five times in a row. Guan Zi said, "Lvliang can go down." Gong said, "What can I do?" Guan Zi said to him, "You should take silks and lead people to Korea. Close the door and don't communicate with Lvliang. " Gong Dao: "Promise." After October, the pipe made Lvliang people and Lvliang people hungry and cold, and there was nothing they could do. The ruler of Lvliang ordered his people to cultivate agriculture. If you can't get the valley in March, Lvliang people only need 100 yuan. In April, six-tenths of Luliang people returned to Qi; Three years, please take it from the king of Lvliang.

Duke Huan said, "Lu and Liang are like crops on the edge of a field, with tail thorns on the bees and lips outside their teeth. Now I want to capture Lvliang, Lvliang. How should I proceed? " Guan Zhong said, "Shandong and Liang have always been weaving. You take the lead in wearing linen, let the left and right officials wear it, and the people will follow suit. You have to order Qi not to knit, and you have to give it back to Lu and Liang. In this way, the two countries will weave away from agriculture. " Duke Huan said, "Yes." Just south of Mount Tai, I started smoking clothes. I put it on in ten days. Guan Zhong also said to the merchants in Shandong and Liang: "You sell me a thousand horses, and I will give you three hundred catties of gold; Sell 10 thousand horses and give 3 thousand pounds. " In this way, even if Shandong and Liang do not tax the people, their wealth is sufficient. Hearing the news, the kings of Lu and Liang asked their people to weave cotton. Thirteen months later, Guan Zhong sent someone to ask Lu and Liang. The cities of the two countries have a large population, which makes the roads dusty and you can't see each other clearly within ten steps. Pedestrians can't lift their heels, car wheels collide and horses March in procession. Guan Zhong said, "You can get the two countries of Luliang." Duke Huan said, "What should I do?" Guan Zhong replied, "You should change into silk clothes. Lead people to stop wearing tobacco. It is also necessary to close the checkpoints and cut off economic exchanges with Lu and Liang. " Duke Huan said, "Yes." Ten months later, Guan Zhong sent someone to spy on him. He saw that the people in Lvliang were starving, and even the normal taxes of the imperial court could not be paid. The kings of the two countries ordered the people to stop weaving and go to agriculture, but the grain could not be produced in just three months. Shandong people and Liang people spend thousands of dollars a stone to buy food, while the price of food in Qi is only ten dollars a stone. Two years later, six-tenths of Lu and Liang defected to Qi. Three years later, both Lu and Liang surrendered to Qi.
