Once upon a time, there lived a rich man who was illiterate.
One day, a friend wished to borrow an ox from him. The friend wrote a note and sent his servant to deliver it to the rich man.
Upon receiving the note, the rich man pretended to read it. After a moment, he said, "Alright, I understand. Go tell your master that I will come myself shortly."
从前，住着一个不识字的富人。
一天，他的一位朋友想向他借一头公牛。这位朋友写了一张便条，派仆人送去给富人。
富人拿到便条后，假装读了起来。过了一会儿，他说：“好了，我知道了。回去告诉你的主人，我马上亲自过去。”
