Legend has it that Zhuge Liang visited Wu Dong and designed a pagoda for Sun Quan. In fact, it was Mr Zhuge Liang who wanted to weigh the weight of Soochow and see if Soochow could build an artificial tower. That pagoda is very demanding. The copper gourd at the top alone is 50 feet high and weighs more than 4,000 kilograms. Sun Quan was stumped, sallow and emaciated. Later, I found a smelter, and there was a shortage of people to make copper gourd model, so I posted a list of recruiting talents on the city gate. After a month, I still got nothing. Zhuge Liang paced on the list of recruiting talents every day and shook his goose feather fan happily.
There are three cobblers setting up stalls at the city gate. They are ugly and illiterate. Everyone calls them ugly cobblers. When they heard that Zhuge Liang was making fun of Wu Dongren, they were unconvinced and got together to discuss. It took them three days and nights to finally cut a gourd by cutting shoes. Then, cut the material from cowhide, and sew the model of gourd with awl and awl. When pouring copper water, first bury the gourd in the sand. This move is a success. When Zhuge Liang got the news that copper gourd poured water, he immediately said goodbye to Sun Quan and never dared to "look down on Soochow" again.
