The quality of the arrow bamboo produced in
Kuaiji County in southeast China is very good.(東南箭竹)
In the Kingdom of Wu during the Three
Kingdoms period in China, there was a very famous minister named (Yu Fan), and
a story about him is recorded in the history books.
He is very knowledgeable and has done
extensive research on Confucian and Taoist classics.
He knows the Book of Changes and can
accurately predict fortunes.
At that time, there was a famous scholar.
This scholar was a descendant of Confucius and his name was Kong Rong.
One day, Yu Fan wrote a letter to Kong
Rong.
In his letter, he told him about his
experience in studying the I Ching.
Kong Rong replied after reading the letter.
One of China's oldest dictionaries once
recorded that the agricultural speciality of Kuaiji County in Southeast China
is arrow bamboo. The quality of arrow bamboo here is particularly good.
I think another sentence should be added to
this dictionary.
The agricultural speciality of Kuaiji
County is arrow bamboo. Yu Fan, who was born in Kuaiji County, is the best
contemporary I Ching expert.
In 219 AD, a war broke out between the
Soochow Kingdom and the Shuhan Kingdom.
The name of the general who led the army of
the Shu Han Kingdom was (Guan Yu), the name of the general who led the army of
the Soochow Kingdom was (Lü Meng), and (Yu Fan) was assigned to serve as (Lü
Meng)'s military staff.
With the help of (Yu Fan), (Lü Meng)
successfully defeated the army of the Shu Han Kingdom led by (Guan Yu).
The king of the Soochow Kingdom also came
to the front line of the war. The king knew that (Yu Fan) knew the I Ching and
could tell fortunes accurately.
The king said to [Yu Fan].
The army of the Shuhan Kingdom has been
defeated by us, and their general is currently on the run.
You predict whether we can successfully
capture (Guan Yu).
(Yu Fan) After using the I Ching to divine,
he said to the king.
Two days later, we will discover the
whereabouts of the fugitive (Guan Yu), and Guan Yu will be killed during the
resistance.
Two days later, (Yu Fan's) prediction came
true.
The King of Soochow Kingdom said to (Yu
Fan) at the banquet.
Your fortune-telling ability is as powerful
as the fortune-teller Dongfang Shuo of the Western Han Dynasty.
I have great admiration for you.
The literal translation of this idiom is
that the quality of the arrow bamboo produced in Kuaiji County in south-east
China is very good.
This idiom is used to describe a person who
is very good. This person is very good.

東南箭竹(The quality of the arrow bamboo
produced in Kuaiji County in southeast China is very good.)
中國的三國時代的吳王國，有一個非常著名的大臣，他的名字叫做(虞翻)，歷史書上記載了一個他的故事。
他的學識非常豐富，他對於儒家與道家的經典都有很深入的研究。
他精通易經，他能夠精準的占卜。
當時有一個著名的學者，這個學者是孔子的子孫，他的名字叫做(孔融)。
有一天虞翻寫了一封信給孔融。
他在信中分享自己研究易經的心得。
孔融看完這封信後回信。
中國最古老的一本辭典中曾經這樣記載，在中國的東南方的會稽縣中的農特產是箭竹。這個地方的箭竹品質特別的好。
我認為這本辭典中應該要再加註一句話。
會稽縣中的農特產是箭竹，出生在會稽縣的虞翻是當代最棒的易經專家。
西元219年，東吳王國與蜀漢王國之間發生一場戰爭。
帶領蜀漢王國的軍隊的將軍的名字是(關羽)，帶領東吳王國的軍隊的將軍的名字是(呂蒙)，(虞翻)被派任擔任(呂蒙)的軍事參謀。
在(虞翻)的協助下，(呂蒙)順利地打敗了(關羽)帶領的蜀漢王國的軍隊。
東吳王國的國王也來到戰爭的前線，國王知道(虞翻) 他精通易經並且能夠精準的占卜。
國王對(虞翻)說。
蜀漢王國的軍隊的軍隊被我們打敗了，他們的將軍目前正在逃亡。
你占卜看看我們是否可以順利地抓到(關羽)。
(虞翻)運用易經占卜後、他對國王說。
兩天之後，我們就會發現到正在逃亡的(關羽)的行蹤，關羽會在抵抗的過程中被殺。
兩天後，(虞翻)的預言實現。
東吳王國的國王在慶功宴上對(虞翻)說。
你的占卜的能力就跟西漢王朝那位名字叫做東方朔的占卜大師一樣厲害。
我對你非常的敬佩。
這句成語直接翻譯的意思是中國的東南方的會稽縣所生產的箭竹的品質非常好。
這句成語被用來形容一個人非常的棒，這個人非常優秀。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你認為未來是可以事先預測的嗎?你住的地方有甚麼著名的農特產嗎?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
