《旧五代史·后汉·列传四》
王章与杨不喜欢文士，郡官请求月俸，王章都将一些不能用于军中的物资给他们，称这些物资为 闲杂物 ，命有关部门高估闲杂物的价值，估定后还要抬高，叫作 抬估 ，王章仍不满意，随意再令添估。
章与杨邠不喜儒士，郡官所请月俸，皆取不堪资军者给之，谓之 闲杂物 ，命所司高估其价，估定更添，谓之 抬估 ，章亦不满其意，随事更令更添估。
Both Wang Zhang and Yang disliked literati. When the county officials requested their monthly salary, Wang Zhang gave them some supplies that could not be used in military. He called these “miscellaneous goods” and ordered the related departments to overestimate their values. After such estimations, he lifted them up and called it “lifted estimations”. Wang Zhang was still not satisfied. He arbitrarily increased the estimations.
