The story of the idiom strange goods can live in is as follows:

During the Warring States Period, there was a big businessman named Lv Buwei. This man has a business mind and is good at speculation and hoarding, so he is rich and famous.

One year, Lv Buwei went to Handan, the capital of Zhao State, to do business. Here, Lv Buwei found a rare and strange commodity and shouted: "This strange commodity can live in." He hurried home and submitted his investment plan to his father who supported him. Lv Buwei spent a lot of money on this "imported product".

Groups of rare treasures were sent to the palace of Qin, and finally even their beloved concubines were sent out. A few years later, Lv Buwei became the prime minister of Qin from a rich family in Wei. High-ranking officials and rich people have thousands of times more scenery than before. This is the result of Lv Buwei's good guess.

It turned out that the "imported goods" in the eyes of that year were the grandson of Qin (that is, Zhao). Zi Chu's father, Ann, is the King of Qin, so he is expected to become the King of Qin. In order to help Chu ascend to the throne, I gave a gift to my favorite wife, Mrs. Huayang.

While letting Zi Chu recognize Mrs. Huayang as his mother, he encouraged Mrs. Huayang to put in a good word for Zi Chu in front of a Guo Junren. According to folklore, in order to please Zi Chu, Lv Buwei gave his concubine to Zi Chu, the mother of Qin Shihuang. Lv Buwei's hard work was not in vain. A few years later, Zi Chu was brought back to China, where he became the Crown Prince and then ascended the throne. In return for Lv Buwei's great help, Zi Chu gave Lv Buwei a generous reward after he ascended the throne.

At that time, Wei Youxin, Chu Youchun, Zhao Youyou and Qi Youyou. These four sons all like to invite guests. Their reputation as Corporal Li Xian is famous all over the world. In order to enjoy the reputation of a wise man, Lv Buwei followed the example of Sixi and invited guests. He seems to be more generous to his guests than Fourth Childe.

Therefore, in a very short time, he has more than 3000 talents. Later, following the example of a hundred schools of thought, he wrote a book, asking guests to write down what they saw and heard, which was divided into eight chapters, six chapters and twelve chapters, with 200,000 words. This book was later circulated as Lv Chunqiu.

Later, Lv Buwei was demoted because he was implicated in Laoyi. Later, he thought that he had been persecuted gradually and was afraid of being killed in the future, so he drank wine and committed suicide. From this story, we can see that Lv Buwei's "imported goods" are really "habitable", and he has brought Lv Buwei fame and power that he can't get in the business world.
