| [00:02.47]浮华背后 Behind Fortunes [00:05.75]Though fortunes achieved through hard work and other qualities can make people live cozily, [00:12.09]they should never be considered as the aim of living. [00:16.16]Therefore, in the process of seeking fortunes, [00:19.64] people should never get them at the cost of life and other important things. [00:30.46]The Gold Chain金链 [00:33.40]Once upon a time, there was a poor fisherman who always dreamed of becoming rich. [00:40.23] He wished to become a millionaire, and so did his wife. [00:45.00]He had heard from some old men before, [00:48.10]that several ships loaded with diamonds and gold had once sunk in the nearby seashore. [00:54.85] Because of this, for a long time he kept searching that whole area for this treasure. [01:00.76]One day, while he was sitting on the boat daydreaming, [01:04.69]he suddenly felt that the fishing rod was being weighed down by a heavy object. [01:10.07] He excitedly pulled hard at it, [01:12.82]and what he saw made him exclaim, [01:15.43]“Wow! A big, shiny gold chain!” [01:19.02]He pulled hard at the gold chain to get it into the boat, [01:22.65]but there seemed to be no end to it. [01:25.58]His boat started to get over-loaded and the sea water filled his boat. [01:30.07]However, he had begun dreaming of a big house, [01:33.60]a big piece of land and buying horses and cows… [01:37.40]He kept pulling in the chain though the boat kept sinking. [01:41.56] The boat was finally submerged and he struggled to stay afloat. [01:45.72] Unfortunately his feet were entangled in the gold chain and he drowned. |
