《元史·列传·卷十一》
凡其僚属来上任，阿台必送他们盐、米、羊、用器等，对他们说 ：我并非有别的意图，只是要你们不剥削百姓而已。 
僚属始至，阿台必遗之盐、米、羊畜、什器，曰： 非有他也，欲其不剥民耳。 
Whenever his subordinates took up office, Atai would make sure to give them salt, rice, sheep, and utensils, and would tell them: "I have no other intention than to ensure that you do not exploit the people."
