Honesty | 诚信

English Original

Before, very few foreigners visited the southern foot of the Himalayas. Later, many Japanese tourists began to visit. It is said this was inspired by the honesty of a local boy.

One day, some Japanese photographers asked a local boy to buy them some bottles of beer. The task took the boy over three hours.

The next day, the boy volunteered to buy beer for them again. The photographers gave him a large sum of money. However, the boy did not return until the afternoon of the third day. The photographers began to talk amongst themselves, thinking the boy had cheated them.

On the third night, the boy knocked on the photographers' door. He explained that he had only found four bottles at one store. To get the remaining six, he had to climb over another mountain and cross a river. On his way back, three bottles broke. In tears, he presented the broken pieces to the photographers and returned the small change.


中文翻译

早年,喜马拉雅山南麓很少有外国人涉足。后来,许多日本游客开始到此观光。据说,这源于一位当地少年的诚信

一天,几位日本摄影师请一位当地少年帮他们买几瓶啤酒。这个任务花了少年三个多小时。

第二天,少年主动提出再次帮他们买啤酒。摄影师们给了他一大笔钱。然而,少年直到第三天下午仍未返回。摄影师们开始议论纷纷,认为少年骗走了他们的钱。

第三天夜里,少年敲开了摄影师们的门。他解释说,他只在一家商店买到四瓶啤酒。为了买到另外六瓶,他不得不翻过另一座山,蹚过一条河。在返回途中,他摔坏了三瓶。他哭着将碎玻璃片交给摄影师,并退还了剩余的零钱。
