Lu Su's Granary

Lu Su, a renowned scholar from Eastern Wu, came from a wealthy family and was known for his generous and kind nature. When Zhou Yu was just starting his career and facing a severe shortage of military provisions, he personally led soldiers to visit Lu Su's home, hoping to borrow some grain to overcome the difficult situation. At the time, Lu Su had two large granaries, each filled with three thousand 'hu' (a unit of measurement) of rice. Upon hearing Zhou Yu's request, Lu Su didn't even bat an eye. He pointed to one of the massive granaries and said, "I'll give you this entire granary!" Zhou Yu was deeply moved by Lu Su's magnanimity and sincerity, and the two immediately became close friends. This warm assistance not only solved the urgent problem but also forged an eternal bond of heroic friendship.
