The Little Monk Sells Stones And Wakes Up Countless People!

One day, a little monk came over and asked Zen master: "master, I

"What is it?" said the Zen master. "Go to the back garden and move a big stone to the market. If someone asks the price, don't talk, just stretch out two fingers. If he countercharges you, don't sell it, bring it back, master tells you what the greatest value of your life is."

Second days early in the morning, the little monk took a big stone and went to the vegetable market to sell it.

People in the market are curious. A housewife came over and asked, "how much does the stone sell?" the monk stretched out two fingers, and the housewife said, "2 yuan." the monk shook his head. The housewife said, "so that's 20 yuan? OK, OK! I just took back to press sour cabbage."

The little monk heard, "my dear,"

Someone actually paid 20 yuan to buy it! There are plenty of them on the mountain.

So, the little monk did not sell. He went to see the master cheerfully. "Master, today, a housewife is willing to pay 20 yuan for my stone.

Master, can you tell me now what is the greatest value of my life? "The Zen master said," well, no hurry. You can take this stone to the museum tomorrow morning. If someone asks the price, you still extend two fingers. If he counter-offer, do not sell it, then bring it back, we will talk again. "

On the second morning, in the museum, a group of curious people gathered around and whispered: "what value is a common stone in the museum?" "since the stone is placed in a museum, it must have its value, but we don't know yet."

At this time, a man rushed out of the crowd and shouted at the little monk, "how much do you sell the stone?" the little monk didn't make a sound and put out two fingers. The man said, "200 yuan?" the little monk shook his head. The man said, "2000 yuan is 2000 yuan. I just want to make a statue of it with it."

Hearing this, a step backward, very surprised!

He still following the master's entrustment, took the stone back to the mountain, and went to see the master: "master, someone is going to buy me this stone for 2000 yuan today. This time, you always tell me what is the greatest value of my life, is it?" the Zen master laughed and said, "you will take this stone to the antique shop tomorrow and take it back, so you will bring it back."

This time, the master will tell you what the greatest value of your life is.

On the third morning, the little monk came to the antique shop with the big stone. There were still some people looking around. Some people were talking about: "what kind of stone is this? Where did it unearthed? What Dynasty was it? What was it used for?" finally, a man came to ask the price: "how much do you sell this stone?" the little monk kept silent, and stretched out two fingers.

20000 yuan? "The little monk opened his eyes wide and opened his mouth wide and cried out in astonishment." ah!! "the guest thought he was too low in price and was angry at the little monk. He immediately corrected," no! No! No! I am wrong. I am going to give you 200000 yuan! "" 200000 yuan! "The little monk heard this. He immediately picked up a stone and flew back to the mountain to see the master. He said breathlessly," master, master, we can develop now. Today's donor is bidding for $200000 to buy our stone! Now you can always tell me, what is the greatest value of my life? ""

The Zen master felt the head of the little monk and said kindly, "child, the greatest value of your life is like this stone. If you put yourself in the vegetable market, you will only be worth 20 yuan; if you put yourself in the museum, you will be worth 2000 yuan; if you put yourself in an antique shop, you are worth 200000 yuan! Different positioning, the value of life will be totally different!"
