1) 驽马
驽马千里,功在不舍。
(lit) [If] an inferior horse [travels one] thousand miles, [its] achievement is [only due to] perseverance.
(fig) Often accomplishment is not the result of brilliance, but only of hard work.

2) 駑鈍

Curious customers ask: “What’s the difference between sun-dried and mechanically dried rice?” “If you really pay close attention while you’re eating,” ­Chiang responds with a smile, “you’ll notice that sun-dried rice has the flavor of sunlight.”
