In Chinese, the pronunciation of the word “Pí jiànɡ(皮匠)” sounds just like ”Pí jiànɡ（裨将）”, which refers to ancient vice generals. Later in circulations of this word , people have taken the word ”Pí jiànɡ(皮匠)” as the replacement of ”Pí jiànɡ（裨将）”. The whole meaning of the saying is that three vice generals‘ wisdom can match with the ancient Chinese talent named Zhuge Liang, that is to say, much more wisdom may be produced if there are more people working on a same project.
