Once, he was shooting an arrow at home, and an old man selling oil put down his burden and stood there looking at him casually for a long time. The old man who sells oil only nodded slightly when he saw that he hit the target with ten arrows.

Chen Yaozi asked the oilman, "Do you know archery? Isn't my archery very clever? " The old man selling oil said, "There is no other secret but skill." Chen Yaozi said angrily, "How dare you despise my archery!" The old man said, "I can understand this truth from my experience in pouring oil." So he took out a gourd and put it on the ground, put a copper coin in the mouth of the gourd, and slowly poured oil into the gourd with an oil spoon. Oil is injected from the money hole, but the money is not wet. So he said, "I have no other secrets, but I know my hands well." Chen Yaozi smiled and sent him away.
