《宋史·列传·卷二百三十一》
当时国家持续太平，府库充盈，蔡京首倡丰、亨、豫、大之说，视官爵财物如粪土，前代积累的财富被挥霍一空。
时承平既久，帑庾盈溢，京倡为丰、亨、豫、大之说，视官爵财物如粪土，累朝所储扫地矣。
The state was at peace and the treasury was full at that time. Cai Jing initiated the theory of Wealth, Prosperity, Contentment and Abundance, and treated his title and wealth as dirt. All the wealth previous generations had accumulated was squandered.
