Just then, his son, Cao Chong, came up and said that he could do it. He made the elephant get on a boat and made a mark on the boat when the boat stopped sinking. Then he drove the elephant back to the bank and asked some people to put some baskets of stones into the boat until the surface of the water reached the mark. In the end, he asked people to weigh the stones in the boat. In this way, he succeeded in weighing the elephant.
How clever Cao Chong was!
