"It belongs to me; whoever picks it up will be caught by the public servant." The second old man who was chopping wood glared at the first old man and said: You only know how to pick up dung. What does the emperor do? Eye said: "You know how to pick up dung. Why does the emperor pick up dung? If I become the emperor, I will make a golden axe; if I become the emperor, I will make a golden axe; I will use the golden ax to chop every day. "Firewood" is used to chop firewood with a golden ax. The third one was an old beggar man who laughed so hard that he burst into tears. He said, "You two are really interesting." , I have become the emperor; it’s really interesting, I have become the emperor; do I still need to work if I become the emperor? If I were the emperor, I would sit by the stove and eat roasted sweet potatoes every day. These old men just want to ruin their brains, and I don’t know how the emperor lives even if these old men want to ruin their brains. How the emperor lived.
