DUKE HUAN OF QI ORDERS GUAN ZHONG TO ADMINSTER THE AFFAIRS OF STATE
Duke Huan of Qi ordered Guan Zhong to administer the affairs of state. Guan Zhong responded， saying：“ Those of inferior status cannot rule over those of superior status.” Duke Huan appointed Guan Zhong the chief minister， and yet the state of Qi was not peaceful and orderly. Duke Huan said：“ Why is the state not yet peaceful and orderly？” Guan Zhong responded， saying：“ The poor cannot order about the rich.” Duke Huan bestowed on him the revenues from the commodity tax of Qi for one year， yet the state was not peaceful and orderly.
Duke Huan said：“ Why is the state not peaceful and orderly？” Guan Zhong responded， saying：“ A person distant from the ruler cannot control those who are close to the ruler.” Duke Huan raised him to a most high position， and honored him by calling him Uncle Zhong. Thereupon the state of Qi became very peaceful and prosperous， and in the end gained hegemony over all the world. Confucius said： “Even a person of Guan Zhong's ability， had he not obtained these three kinds of power， would not have been able to have his ruler face the south and acclaimed the overlord of the feudal princes.”
