《史记·七十列传·货殖列传》
后来，楚汉两军相持于荥阳，农民无法耕种田地，米价每石涨到一万钱，任氏卖谷大发其财，豪杰的金银珠宝全都归于任氏，任氏因此发了财。
楚汉相距荥阳也，民不得耕种，米石至万，而豪杰金玉尽归任氏，任氏以此起富。
Later, the Chu and Han armies were at a stalemate in Xingyang. The farmers were unable to farm the land, and the price of rice rose to 10,000 yuan per stone. Ren Shi made a fortune selling grain, and all the gold, silver and jewelry of the heroes belonged to Ren Shi, so Ren Shi made a fortune.
