A young man went to visit the oldest and wisest man in the village for some advice on how he could become rich.
“Treasure is yours to be had :at the top of Yonder Mountain,” advised the wise old man as he pointed to a tall mountain in the distance.“You must travel on foot to the top of the mountain. There you will find riches beyond your belief. Once you leave the top of the mountain, whatever remains will be lost forever.”
The young man could hardly wait until the morning when he was to meet with the wise old man for final instructions. When he arrived at the wise old man's home, he saw a long, thick log(原木) lying on the ground in front of the house.
“You must carry this log on your journey to the top of the mountain, and it is a necessary part of your journey. You must take it with you to the top of the mountain to claim your treasure,” explained the wise old man.
The young man was not pleased with this sudden surprise, but be respected the wise old man and as he lifted the long, heavy log onto his shoulders and struggled down the road towards the mountain, he realized that the trip would not be as easy as he thought.
After he was walking for a while, a woodsman came up to him and said, “It looks like that log is pretty heavy. Would you like me to cut some of it to make it lighter?”
The young man was very tired, so he said, “I suppose that a little bit cut off the end wouldn't hurt.” And the woodsman cut two inches off the end.
A while later the young man met a farmer on his way back from the fields. And the farmer helped him cut another two inches off the end.
At the bottom of the mountain, the young man met up with a trapper(捕杀动物者) who helped him cut four more inches off the log.
