Wrapping Rags with Silk
- There was a young guy who lives in town.
- He likes to live a luxurious life without putting an effort to earn it.
Ha…… opportunity comes.
- Hmmm……
- Such a luxurious bungalow must have a lot of expensive properties.
- When night comes……
- He sneaked into the bungalow through a window.
- Wow! All these are fine silk and brocade.
- He ran away happily after he stole some valuable things.
- He used the fine silk and brocade to wrap his rags and other trivial properties.
- For such foolish action, he was laughed at by the wise people.
