A boy called Kenny moved to countryside from a large city. He wanted to buy a donkey (驴子)from a farmer. It cost him 100 dollars. The farmer agreed to bring the donkey the next day. The next day, the farmer came and say, “Sorry, the donkey died.” “OK,” he said. “Please give the money back to me.” “But I have spent all the money !” “Then give me the donkey,” Kenny said. The farmer wondered, “Why do you want the dead donkey?” “I can use it as a prize in a draw lot (抽奖).” The farmer shouted, “No one wants a dead donkey !” You are crazy.” Kenny answered , “Don’t worry ! I won’t tell them the donkey is dead.”

   A few months later, the farmer met Kenny . “How about the dead donkey?” he asked . Kenny said, “Well, I held a lucky draw lot, and I told them the prize is a donkey. I sold 500 tickets, 2  dollars each. So I got 998 dollars.” The farmer was very much surprised . “Why doesn’t anyone say ‘No?’” Kenny answered , “Only the winner said ‘No’. So I gave the money that he bought the tickets to him.”

  Many years later, when Kenny grew up , he became the chief of Anther (安然公司主管).
