There is a rich man who has a lot of industry, but he feels that his energy is getting worse every day, and he wants to entrust his property to his son.
He had three sons, and he thought they were all good, but he couldn't decide who would be the chief heir.
So he called his three sons over and said to them, "I'm going to give each of you a sum of money to go out and do business, and come back a year later and tell me the most noble thing you've done this year." ”
A year later, three sons returned.
The rich man sat down and said to his sons, "Son, tell me now about the most noble thing you have done in the past year." ”
The eldest son said, "There was a man who gave me a box of gold coins for safekeeping. Unfortunately, he died unexpectedly, and no one— including his family — knew that he still had the box of gold coins that I had in my custody, and without the slightest hesitation, I handed the box of gold coins to his family intact. ”
The rich man listened and said to his eldest son, "You're doing a good job. But honesty is a virtue you deserve, but it is not the noblest virtue. You will be in charge of the operation of the money bank in the future. ”
The second son went on to say: "One day when I was passing by the river, I saw a little beggar in rags fall into the river, and before I could take off my clothes, I jumped into the river and rescued the little beggar. ”
The rich man said to the second son; "You are doing a very good job, too. But compassion and compassion are the virtues you deserve, and saving people is your duty, but this is not yet the noblest virtue. You're in charge of our family's hospital. ”
When it was the younger son's turn, he was a little embarrassed, and he twisted and said, "Well, I have done some ordinary things this year, and there seems to be nothing that I find particularly noble, but there is one thing that I feel very happy about, that is, one evening, I rode through a mountain road, and saw an enemy I hated very much sleeping on the side of the road, as long as I reached out and gently pushed him, he would fall into the abyss." But instead of doing so, I got off my horse and woke him up. It turned out that he had been knocked unconscious here by thieves, robbed of his horse and all his belongings, and I let him ride on my horse and pulled him into town to heal his wounds. We have now become very good friends and partners. ”
The rich man stood up at once, clutched his younger son's hand, and said excitedly: "My child, hatred is the culprit hindering all our virtues, you have not taken advantage of the danger of others, and you have helped your enemies, and finally turned enemies into friends. You did, and from now on you are the general heir to all my estates. ”
Love is the greatest force that resolves all the differences, disputes, and hatreds of the world.
