Charcoal burner and cloth bleaching worker

A charcoal burner is doing business in his own house. One day, he met a friend, a Fuller, and begged him to come and live with him, saying that they should be better neighbors and their housework expenses would be reduced. The bleacher replied, "This arrangement is impossible for me, because no matter what I bleach, you will immediately blacken it with your charcoal."

The charcoal burner was working in a family. When he saw a drifter move to live next to him, he went up to persuade him to live with him. He was extremely happy and explained that it was more intimate, convenient and economical. The bleaching man replied, "Maybe what you said is true, but that's impossible, because everything I bleach will be dyed black by you."

This story shows that:

Different kinds of people are difficult to get along with. Birds of a feather flock to gather.

Passengers and donkeys

The donkey and his shadow

A tourist hired a donkey to go far away. It was very hot, and the pool was impatient. He stopped to rest, hid in the shadow of the donkey, and hid in the shade from the sun. The shadow of the donkey barely covers a person, so passengers and the owner of the donkey fight fiercely for shade. No one thinks they have the right. The owner of the donkey insisted that he only rented the donkey itself, not the shadow of the donkey. The visitor said that he hired the donkey itself, including the donkey and the shadow. They argue and even fight with each other. When they fought, the donkey ran away.

It is said that people often quarrel over trivial matters, thus losing the most important thing.

The owner of the donkey insisted that he only rented the donkey itself, and there was no shadow of the donkey. The passenger said that the donkey he rented included the donkey itself and the shadow. They argued so much that they fought. When they fought, the donkey ran away. In other words, people often quarrel over trivial matters, thus losing the most important thing.
