Once a small country came to China and paid tribute to three identical golden men, who were brilliant and splendid, and the emperor was very happy. But this small country is not kind, and at the same time comes up with a question: Which of the three golden people is the most valuable?
The emperor thought of many ways, and invited jewelers to inspect them, weigh them, and see the workmanship, all of which were exactly the same. What to do?The messenger is still waiting to report back. It's a big country, you can't even understand this little thing, right?
Finally, there was an old minister who abdicated that he had a way.
The emperor invited the envoy to the main hall, and the old minister confidently took three straws and plunged them into the ear of the first golden man, and the straw came out of the other ear. The straw of the second golden man fell directly out of his mouth, and the third golden man, after the straw went in, fell into the stomach without any sound. The old minister said: The third golden man is the most valuable!The messenger was silent, and the answer was correct.
Insight: The most valuable person is not necessarily the person who can speak the most. God gave us two ears and a mouth, which was meant to let us listen more and talk less. Being good at listening is the most basic quality of a mature person.
There was a child from a poor background who loved fishing, but he never caught a big fish.
The night before the ban on bass fishing began, he and his mother went fishing at the lake again. Place the line, set the bait, and throw the line into the lake again and again.
The lake was calm, and he and his mother waited for the fish to take the bait. However, a long time passed, and not a single fish was hooked.
Just as they were about to go home, the line suddenly moved. He carried it, and found that it was unusually heavy, and it must be a big fish that had been hooked. He was excited. Hurriedly and quickly reeling in the fishing line, the line became shorter and shorter, and the sound of a big fish slapping on the surface of the lake sounded, and the mother took out the net cover and prepared to catch it by the lake.
Sure enough, it's a big guy. The mother turned on the flashlight and shone on the fish, revealing that it was a sea bass, its silver-white scales shining brightly. The mother looked at the luminous watch and said to the child, "It's ten o'clock." It's two hours before the ban is left, kid, let's let it go. ”
The child said, "No, Mommy, we managed to catch it." ”
The child cried, and the mother comforted him: "We're going to catch bigger fish." ”
The child looked around, there was no one on the lake, and the night was dark. He told his mother, "People don't know we've caught a bass. ”
The mother said, "Son, there are no eyes by the lake, but we have eyes in our hearts." ”
At the mother's insistence, the perch was released.
Thirty years later, the young boy became one of the most architects, and his work was all over New York.
Insight: A mother who can tell her child that she has eyes in her heart will definitely make a great child. The little boy can eventually become the best architect in the United States, all of this is really normal.
In a forest, there lived a tiger and a kitten, the tiger lived on the top of the mountain, and the kitten lived at the bottom of the mountain. The stream on the hill flowed down the hill, right in front of the kitten's house. They all lead a quiet and laid-back life.
One day, the tiger folded a paper boat and put it into the creek. The paper boat drifted and drifted to the door of the kitten's house. The kitten picked up the paper boat and looked at it, and was so happy. There is a small fish in the paper boat, and the small sail of the paper boat reads: I wish you luck every day!
The kitten also wants to fold a paper boat and give it to the tiger, but how can the paper boat float to the top of the mountain?It thought about it and had a way. The kitten found a branch and paper and tied a kite. The kite fluttered in the wind and floated to the door of the tiger's house. The tiger grabbed the string of the kite, and when he saw it, he was also very happy. There is a box tied to the kite, and inside the box is a piece of meat, and the wings of the kite are written: I wish you eternal happiness!
Paper boats and kites make tigers and kittens good friends. But one day, the two of them quarreled over a trivial matter. Since then, there are no more fluttering kites on the top of the mountain, and no more floating paper boats in the stream.
The kitten was very sad, but he insisted on tying a kite every day, but he was too embarrassed to fly the kite to the top of the mountain, and only hung the kite on the branches. The tiger was also sad, but he still insisted on folding a paper boat every day, but alas, he put the paper boat on the roof.

When Su Zhang saw his old friend, he was very enthusiastic, and the two of them drank, chatted, and recalled the past. Su Zhang never made a proposal, and kept serving dishes to his old friend, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

One spring more than 10 years ago, a rural guy who fantasized about making a fortune came to Shenzhen to look for a job, hoping to find his place in this metropolis full of opportunities. He wanted to find an easy and well-paying job, but he never got it. Later, when he ran out of coils and had no job to do, he had to sleep on the streets.
One night, he curled up on the sidewalk and snoozed, his image depressed and scruffy, much like a beggar sleeping on the street. A woman passing by threw him a dollar, which counted as alms. Just as his hand was about to pick up the note, a shoe-shining girl next to him jumped over and picked it up first.
The money is mine!The girl said without blushing. The young man is angry, isn't this obviously a trick?So, he stood up and argued with the girl.
Why did that woman give you money?You two are not related to each other, unless you ......You're a beggar!The girl blinked and looked at him slyly, "If you admit that you are a beggar, I will give you this money." ”
Admit that you are a beggar?He was shocked: How could I be a beggar?He was a little angry, and in order to defend his dignity, (inspirational story: one yuan makes a person's life) he had no choice but to give up. He turned around to leave, but the girl stopped him, "I know you're starving." Is that good?I'll give you my shoe-shine booth for 10 minutes, and if you get business in 10 minutes, you'll be able to earn a meal. ”
He didn't believe the girl. The girl said sincerely: "What I said is true, you should take my advice." This is not the same as accepting that dollar. If you take that dollar, you are receiving alms;If you take my advice, it's ...... to earn money by laborHe only felt a heat in his heart, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little damp.
In order to earn money for food, he tried his best to get business. Within 10 minutes, he had actually landed a deal. After shining his shoes, the middle-aged man gave him 3 yuan, which he used to buy two pieces of bread. When he had gobbled up the two loaves of bread, he made a request to the girl, "Can you ...... it?"Help me again, help me ......Buy a set of shoe-shine tools ......I also want to shine my shoes. The girl smiled.
The next day, there was an extra shoe-shine booth next to the girl's shoe-shine stall. Soon, he and the girl went from acquaintance to acquaintance and love, and the two got married. Later, he and his wife both went to work in a leather shoe factory. Later, the husband and wife resigned from the shoe factory and opened a leather shoe processing shop to order leather shoes for customers. Later, the scale of leather shoe processing shops became larger and larger. Finally developed into a large-scale leather shoe factory. And this young man in the past is now Mr. He Qiuping, chairman of Chongqing Hiking Shoes Group. Today, his personal assets have reached tens of millions of yuan.
