"Du Lie's New Book" is also known as "The Book of Lies". The whole book was originally divided into four volumes, 24 categories, and a total of 84 chapters. The book divides fraud into 24 categories, including stripping fraud, packet loss fraud, silver exchange fraud, and fraud, and lists 84 fraud cases. The content covers everything from officialdom and imperial examinations to ordinary people in the market, and touches on various shady phenomena of the Nine-Level and Three Religions, such as fake horses taking off their satin, first sending money and then escaping, Taoist priests exchanging gold in a boat, pretending to be a prince to steal merchants' silver, etc. Every time the author tells a story, he usually adds commentaries to analyze and lament it, in order to clarify its meaning of "eliminating deceit".
