A man was¹ looking for things of the old times. One day he came² to a village and found³ a blue bowl. It looked very old. The bowl was on the ground⁴ and a cat was drinking milk from it. A farmer, the owner⁵ of the cat, was sitting beside the bowl. The man did⁶ not want the farmer to know that he was interested⁷ in the bowl. So he said⁸ to him in a soft voice⁹, "What a nice cat you have! Will you sell it to me?"

"How much will you give me for the cat?" the farmer asked.

"Thirty dollars. Would¹⁰ that be enough?" Later¹¹, the farmer agreed¹². After he paid¹³ the farmer, the man said, "This cat is used¹⁴ to eating with his bowl. May I take this bowl with the cat?" But the farmer said, "I'm sorry I can't give you the bowl. Thanks to the bowl, I have sold¹⁵ thirty cats."

一个男人喜欢寻找古董，一天，他来到一个小村庄，发现一个蓝色的碗。它看上去很旧。这个碗在地上，猫用它喝着牛奶，旁边坐着一个农夫，是这只猫的主人。这个人不想让农夫知道他对这只碗很有兴趣。于是他低声对他说，“你的猫真漂亮，能卖给我吗？

“你准备给花多少钱买这只猫？”这个农夫问。

“三十美元。这样够了吗？农夫答应。他把钱给了农夫，那人说，“这个猫是用这只碗吃食物吧。我可以把这碗也带走吗？“但农夫说，“非常抱歉，我不能给你的碗。感谢谢这只碗，因为它我已经卖了三十只猫。”
