The Greedy Businessman and the Village of Love

 

There was a wealthy businessman who lived a life of luxury, enjoying gourmet food and wearing clothes more extravagant than even a king's. But he still felt unsatisfied and wanted to make an even bigger fortune. Hearing that love was valuable, he decided to acquire it by purchasing it.

I lived in a small village where neighbors cared for each other and were full of love. The village was even named "Love Village." Everyone in the village lived happily and harmoniously. As a result, Love Village became the businessman's first target.

On a sunny morning, the businessman's BMW arrived in our village, and people were surprised and gathered around to see what was going on. The businessman slowly got out of the car and explained his intention: "I heard that everyone in Love Village is full of love. Today, I am offering a high price to buy it from you all, so that each of you can become rich!"

The villagers discussed and debated among themselves. Some said, "How can we sell our love to others?" Others said, "Love alone isn't enough, we need money too." The villagers had different opinions. The businessman quickly explained, "I have been in the business world for over ten years. You can trust me. If you sell your love to me, I will not only give each of you a large sum of money, but also return your love to you after 15 years." Everyone thought that this was profitable, so they sold their love to him, including me.

Since that day, neighbors no longer cared for each other, and I often heard arguments and the sound of teacups being thrown. The village was in chaos and unrest, and people began to regret their decision to sell their love. However, the businessman had already planned everything and would only return their love if they paid ten times the purchase price.

The villagers became desperate, and that's when I realized that the most precious thing in the world was not money, but love. I cried and threw all the money I earned from selling my love into the water. Suddenly, something came out of my body, and I discovered that I could care for people. I had found my love! I happily shared my method with the entire village, and everyone else threw their money into the water too, regaining their love. The village returned to its original peace and harmony. When the businessman heard the news, he passed out.

It turns out that the most precious thing in life is to have a heart full of love.
