【枉尺直寻】〖wng ch zhí xún〗[Only one foot is crooked and eight feet are straight; make only small concession, but gain quite considerably; compromise on minor points so as to gain on the major issue]
枉担虚名民作主,
尺璧寸阴雇工苦。
直道守节加班点,
寻源讨本寡头富。
比喻在小处委屈一些,以求得较大的好处。Metaphor in small grievances, in order to obtain greater benefits. 同:因小失大。
