學以愈愚也，人而不學，則昏昧無知，愚不能愈矣 言不可盡信，必揆諸理。事未可遽行，必問諸心

十二月，戊寅，朱俱波、甘棠遣使入貢。朱俱波在蔥嶺之北，去瓜州三千八百里。甘棠在大海南。上曰：「中國既安，四夷自服。然朕不能無懼，昔秦始皇威振胡、越，二世而亡，唯諸公匡其不逮耳。」

其後四年，而漢遣大將將六將軍，軍十餘萬，擊右賢王，獲首虜萬五千級。明年，大將軍將六將軍仍再出擊胡，得首虜萬九千級。捕斬首虜之士受賜黃金二十餘萬斤，虜數萬人皆得厚賞，衣食仰給縣官；而漢軍之士馬死者十餘萬，兵甲之財轉漕之費不與焉。於是大農陳藏錢經秏，賦稅既竭，猶不足以奉戰士。有司言：「天子曰：『朕聞五帝之教不相復而治，禹湯之法不同道而王，所由殊路，而建德一也。北邊未安，朕甚悼之。日者，大將軍攻匈奴，斬首虜萬九千級，留蹛無所食。議令民得買爵及贖禁錮免減罪。』請置賞官，命曰武功爵。級十七萬，凡直三十餘萬金。諸買武功爵官首者試補吏，先除；千夫如五大夫；其有罪又減二等；爵得至樂卿：以顯軍功。」軍功多用越等，大者封侯卿大夫，小者郎吏。吏道雜而多端，則官職秏廢。

卷195·太宗文武大聖大廣孝皇帝中之上貞觀十一年（丁酉，公元六三七年）·第4则

During the year, Berkshire's net worth increased by $1.52 billion. More than 98% of this gain came from earnings and appreciation of portfolio securities, with the remainder coming from the issuance of new stock. These shares were issued as a result of our calling our convertible debentures for redemption on January 4, 1993, and of some holders electing to receive common shares rather than the cash that was their alternative. Most holders of the debentures who converted into common waited until January to do it, but a few made the move in December and therefore received shares in 1992. To sum up what happened to the $476 million of bonds we had outstanding: $25 million were converted into shares before yearend; $46 million were converted in January; and $405 million were redeemed for cash. The conversions were made at $11,719 per share, so altogether we issued 6,106 shares.
