A man from the state of Chu wanted to sell a precious pearl in the state of Zheng. He made a casket for the pearl out of the wood from a magnolia tree, which he fumigated with fragrant osmanthus and spices. He studded the casket with pearls and jade, ornamented it with red gems and decorated it with kingfisher feathers. A man of the state of Zheng bought the casket and gave him back the pearl.
This man from the state of Chu certainly knew how to sell a casket, but he was not good at selling his pearl.

有个楚国人，到郑国去卖珍珠。他用名贵的木兰树做了个漂亮的匣子，又用香料薰过，使它香气浓郁，然后把珍珠放到匣子里，并用玫瑰和翠绿的鸟羽做装饰物。一个郑国人被这匣子吸引住了，出钱把它买下来，却把匣子里的珠子还给楚国人。这个楚国人真可以说是很会卖匣子，却不能说他善于卖珍珠啊！
