1. A short story about giving tea

Zhang San always likes to drink tea worth 20 yuan. In the newly opened tea shop, every time Zhang San went to buy tea, the boss would give him half a liang of good tea. Zhang San kept some good tea for his guests. One day when I had nothing to do, I made a pot of good tea and became addicted to it. After drinking the free tea, Zhang San no longer wanted to drink the 20 yuan tea. No matter how expensive the tea he buys, the boss always gives him half a tael of better tea. After half a year, the money Zhang San spent on tea was ten times as much as before!

Those who take the lead get gold, and those who follow in the footsteps may get garlic! Only if you are good at walking your own path can you take a road that others have not walked.

On the fourth day, the wine was still stolen, so they posted the words "Urine Bucket" to see who would still drink. On the fifth day he cried. The bucket is full. ...The story is not over yet. On the sixth day, he once again posted the four words "No Stealing Wine" on the wine barrel. Many people cried that day.
