When Ch’oe Yŏng of Chŏlsŏng, was young, his father always admonished him, saying, "Regard gold as dirt or rocks." Yŏng always had the four characters[見金如土] written on the sashes and kept them in mind^[1] and did not forget [them] all his life. Although he assumed the reins of government and his authority was wielded in and out [of court], he did not exploit a bit from other people's houses. He was just content with food to eat. In those days ministers invited and received each other as guests to spend a day playing paduk. ^[2] They competitively set sumptuous meals with which they pursued luxury and extravagance. Mr. Ch'oe alone invited guests and did not set the [lunch] table [even] after noon. At sunset, he mixed millet and rice and cooked meals with various greens he prepared. All the guests who had empty intestines^[3] and ate up the vegetables and rice and said that [Ch'oe of] Chŏlsŏng's meal was astonishingly delicious. Mr. Ch'oe smiled and said, "This also is a strategy of maneuvering soldiers."

When Ch’oe Yông of Chôlsông was young, his father used to warn him and say: “Look at gold like dirt [stone].” Ch’oe Yông constantly had these 4 characters written on his sash. All his life, he wore it on the chest and did not lose it. Even though he was holding the administration of the State and this authority was ruling in and out, he did not even take a hair from other people’s houses, just enough to eat and that was it. At that time, high ranking officials were inviting each other [and] there by spending their days playing chess¹, organizing competitively exquisit meals in which they worked on their luxury and extravagance. [Once] Mister Ch’oe invited guests and passed the noon without serving food. At dusk, he mixed millet and rice and cooked a meal, at the same time he served miscellaneous vegetables; all the guests’ stomachs were empty [so] they ate up all the vegetables and rice and said: “Ch’oe Yông’s meal is really delicious.” Mister Ch’oe said smiling: “This also is a stratagem to manoeuvre troups.”

¹: People may only be playing go (Korean: 圍棋, paduk) at the time.

When Ch'oe Yŏng of Chŏlsŏng¹ was young, his father constantly exhorted him, saying, "View gold [the same] as earth." [Ch'oe] Yŏng always used these four characters to write on [his] sash. All his life he wore the cloths and did not lose them.

Even though he held [power in] state government, impressively running [state business] within and outside [the state], he did not take [even] one tiny hair from other people's houses, just [took] enough to eat and that was all.

During that time high-ranking ministers invited and welcomed each other to play board games in order to pass the time and vied to set out rare dishes in order to engage in luxury and extravagance.

Ch'oe Yŏng only invited guests. Noon passed by [but] he did not set out food. At dusk he mixed millet and rice to cook a meal and laid out random vegetables.

All the empty-bellied guests, eating their fill of the vegetables and grains, said, "The food of [Ch'oe Yŏng of] Chŏlsŏng is very sweet."

Ch'oe Yŏng, laughing, said, "This is also an employing troops strategy."

¹ Ch'oe Yŏng (1316–1318) was a prominent general of the Koryŏ period who was sometimes called by the name an area under his jurisdiction. For more information on Ch'oe Yŏng see the Encyclopedia of Korean Folk Culture, "General Choe Yeong".
