明人刘基在其《郁离子》中讲过一则寓言:鲁国人不善造酒。而中山国人却善酿美酒,鲁国人早想获其技术却终难如愿。后来,一位鲁国人得到一些中山国的酒糟,用鲁国酒泡了泡就认为酿成了中山酒,鲁国人喝了后均赞美不已。不久,中山国的酿酒师傅来了,尝了一口所谓的中山酒后,立刻吐在了 Ming Liu Ji talked about a parable in his “Ion Ion”: Lu people are not good at making wine. The people of Zhongshan are good at brewing wine, but Lu’s people have long wanted to get their technology but they’ve been hard pressed. Later, a Lu countryman got some of the distiller’s grains of the Zhongshan country. He took a bubble of Lu wine and thought that he had become a Zhongshan wine. Lu people were all praised after drinking. Soon after, the wine master of Zhongshan State came and tasted the so-called Zhongshan liquor and immediately spit it out.
