《元史·列传·卷三十一》
这年大旱灾，道童向江浙行省借米数十万石、盐数十万斤，无论军民，每人三日以旧钞二贯买官米一斗，六日以钞二贯买官盐十斤。这样保持了境内安然无事，义军亦不敢来犯。至正十八年四月，义军陈友谅再进攻江西。
由是按堵如故，而贼亦不敢犯其境。十八年夏四月，陈友谅复攻江西城。
There was a great drought this year, and Daotong borrowed hundreds of thousands of stones of rice and hundreds of thousands of catties of salt from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. Regardless of whether they were military or civilians, each person used two coins of old banknotes to buy a peck of official rice for three days, and two coins of banknotes to buy ten catties of official salt for six days. In this way, the peace within the territory was maintained, and the righteous army did not dare to invade. In April of the eighteenth year of the reign of Emperor Rizheng, the righteous army Chen Youliang attacked Jiangxi again.
