You Are Smarter Already!
A customer at Green’s grocery thought that the owner was very smart and asked,”tell me, what makes you so smart?”
“I wouldn’t share my secret with just anyone,” Green said, lowering his voice so that the other customers wouldn’t hear him, “but since you’re such a good customer, I’ll let you know it.It’s fish heards. Eat enough of fish heads and you’ll be smart.”
“Really? Said the customer. “Do you sell them here?”
“sure. Only $4 each,” Green said. The customer bought three., but returned a week later complaining that the fish heards were bad and he wasn’t any smarter.
“You didn’t eat enough.” Green answered, so the custoer bought 20 more. Two weeks later he went into the shop angrily once again.
“Hey, Green, you’re fooling me. You’ve me. You’ve selling me fish heads for $4 each when I can buy a whole fish for $2.”
“See!” Green said.” “You’re smarter already!’
你已经变得比以前聪明了！
一个顾客见到格林杂货店的老板十分精确，便问道：“告诉我，是什么使你如此的精明呢？”
“我是从来不与人分享我这个秘密的，”格林先生说，接着他压低了声音好让其他顾客无法听到他们的谈话，“但是由于你是个大好人，我把这个秘密告诉你。这是鱼头的缘故。你吃了足够多的鱼头之后我会变精明的。”
“真的吗？”这名顾客说：“你这里出售鱼头吗？”“当然啦，每只四元钱。‘格林说。于是顾客买了三只。一个星期后，他回来向格林抱怨说这些鱼头毫无效果。他一点儿也没变聪明。
“那是因为你吃得太少了。”格林告诉他，因此这名顾客又买了20只鱼头。两个临危后他两次地走进这家商店。
“嗨，格林，你在耍我。人这里的鱼头每只四元钱，可我从别处整条鱼只需两块钱。”
“你看！”格林说，”你已经变得比以前聪明了！”
