A rich businessman wanted to take things to another town to sell,and he had to take gold to buy things with.It was a long way,so he decided to take ten servants with him.They would carry the things to sell and the gold,and also food to eat on the journey.
He was a kind man.He said to one of his servants,”You are the smallest,the thinnest and weakest of all my servants.You can’t carry a heavy load.You may choose the lightest load to carry.”
The servant thanked his master.He chose the biggest and heaviest load.This was bread to eat on the journey.
His master said.”You are foolish.That’s the biggest and heaviest load.” But the servant said nothing and carried the load and the journey began.They walked four hours.Then they stopped to have a rest and ate some of the bread.Then there was less bread for the servant to carry.Every day they ate more bread.The servant’s load grew smaller and lighter.At the end of the journey the servant had nothing to carry.
一位富商想把东西带到另外一个城镇去卖,他不得不带着黄金买东西.这是一段漫长的路程,所以他决定带着10个仆人跟着他.仆人将搬运所有要卖的东西和黄金,当然也包括在路上吃的食物.
富商是一个善良的人.他对其中的一个仆人说:你是所有仆人中最小的,最瘦最弱的.你不能背重的包袱.你可以选一个最轻的包袱.仆人谢了主人后,却选了那个最大最重的包袱.这个包袱装的是路途中吃的面包.主人大叫道:你这个笨蛋.这是最大最重的包袱.但仆人什么都没说,只是背起了包袱开始了他们的路程.他们走了4个小时.然后他们停下来休息,吃了一些面包.于是仆人携带的面包就少了.每天他们都会吃许多面包,仆人的包袱也变得更小更轻了.到了路程的最后仆人一身轻松,什么都不需要带了.
