The Lawyer and the Engineer | 律师与工程师

English Original

A lawyer and an engineer were fishing in the Caribbean. The lawyer said, "I'm here because my house burned down, and the insurance company paid for everything."

"That's quite a coincidence," said the engineer. "I'm here because my house was destroyed by a flood, and my insurance company also paid for everything."

The lawyer looked somewhat confused. "How do you start a flood?" he asked.

“真是巧了,”工程师说,“我在这里是因为我的房子被洪水冲毁了,我的保险公司也赔偿了一切损失。”

律师看起来有些困惑。“你是怎么引发洪水的?”他问道。
