Interpretation of words
Under the stimulation of generous rewards, there must be brave people to accept the task (challenge). It used to mean using a large amount of money and property as a means of encouragement, which could induce artificial effect. If you offer a reward with a lot of money, there will be people who have the courage to do things.

allusion
During the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, Shang Yang of Qin State presided over the reform with the support of Qin Xiaogong. At that time, when wars were frequent and people were in a panic, in order to establish prestige and promote reform, Shang Yang ordered to erect a piece of wood three feet long outside the South Gate of the capital, and made a promise in public: who can move this piece of wood to the north gate, the reward will be ten Liang. The onlookers didn't believe that such an easy thing could get such a high reward. As a result, no one would give it a try. So Shang Yang raised the reward to 50 gold. Finally, someone stood up and carried the wood to the north gate. Shang Yang immediately awarded him 50 gold. Shang Yang's move set up prestige in the hearts of the people, and Shang Yang's next reform soon spread in the Qin state. The new law made Qin gradually strong and prosperous, and finally unified China.
