1. In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a man who liked fishing very much. He spent a lot of time on his fishing tackle and bait: he made a bait out of cinnamon, an aromatic and precious spice, and an extremely delicate hook out of gold, with silver thread and turquoise jade inlaid around the hook, and the fishing line was decorated with the feathers of an extremely precious jade bird.

Whenever he goes fishing, he always comes to the river early, finds a good position, poses and sits safely. Judging from the posture of holding the fishing rod and the fishing position he chose, it is undoubtedly extremely standard and standardized, and even reveals some elegance and leisure of the fisherman. However, even if he sat like this all day, until the evening of closing the pole, others often returned with full loads, but he didn't catch many fish, and sometimes even returned empty-handed.

The story of Lu people fishing tells people that it is difficult to gain anything by paying attention to the external form and ignoring its actual effect and excessively pursuing posturing to decorate the facade.

2. Translation of Golden Hook and Gui Bait in Classical Chinese [Original]

Lu people are good anglers, taking laurel as bait, forging the hook of gold, mistaking silver blue for jade and hanging jade silk. Its extreme position is ⑤, but it has few fish ⑤. Therefore, it is said that "the job of fishing is not to decorate, the urgent matter is not to argue"-finch.

[translation]

There is a man in Lu who likes to talk about ostentation and extravagance. Fishing is one of his great hobbies. He made a fishhook out of gold and decorated it with recognizable silver thread and emeralds. He twisted the jade bird's feathers into thin threads and used fragrant cinnamon as bait. His fishing rod is the most advanced, and his position and posture are very particular when fishing, but he catches very few fish. So: "Fishing is not about beautiful decoration, and it is not about urgency."

Original: Lu people are good fishermen, taking laurel as bait, forging the hook of gold, misusing silver jade and hanging the silk of jade. Its extreme position is, but it has few fish. -"Quezi"

Truth: We should pay attention to practical results. One-sided pursuit of form can only achieve the opposite effect. In this fable, the man who fished with the golden hook and cinnamon bait provided us with a very vivid example.
