A dollar villa

“The New York Times” published in the Department of the eye-catching an ad, to the effect that there is a coastal city in a public sale of luxury villas, sea, Xiang Yang, a grass garden, was sold at one dollar a day. It also left behind the telephone and the full address of the house, and so on.

Ad published a month in a row, no one is handmade jewelry. Also published in a month, or no one. One day, an elderly retired from the newspaper and saw this ad. So think: This is the city not far from their homes, a dollar villa Shayang is to look at the strange. Then go on to a little seaside city.
Address by the elderly found the villa of this building, simply do not believe their eyes - this is a style of luxury villas. He pressed the doorbell you, an old lady opened the door to let him go in the. He looked at his eyes suspected all, almost afraid to ask this building which is not a house ad on the Nachuang. But curiosity can not stop or he Zhizhiwuwu to the old lady made it clear to their own purposes. The old lady said: “Yes, this building was sold at a dollar villa!” More than happy to find the elderly, took out a dollar, ready to take out of this building under the villa. At this time, the old lady pointed to the table is a written document of what people say: “I am sorry, sir, you are more than a quarter of an hour early, the contract is signed!”
This, from the elderly have a strong curiosity about to fall into a deep regret, continue to blame their own why not come earlier this!
The story of a simple and reasonable conclusion - costume jewelry, old people unable to control their own curiosity, the landlord would like to tell his old lady, why such a beautiful villa was sold at a dollar? The old lady told him: This is a villa itself is a legacy left by her husband. In the account of her husband in a will, in all his property to the old lady have, but this building which proceeds from the sale of the villa itself has a lover. After listening to the old lady will, very sad, because she did not expect his love for her husband went so far as lovers will, under the furious This is a luxury villa in the sale of a dollar, then the law will be available to the husband’s lover.
Appears to be some incredible things simple and in fact went so far as reasonable. Only in the cross-flow of goods today, we do not believe their eyes, because we see more “unreal real and the real is also false.” In some cases, such a mindset of really let us give up a lot.
A dollar can do? Sometimes it can buy a sea, Xiang Yang, garden lawn of the luxury villa, only that there was doubt all eyes so that we have lost many opportunities. Some people have asked existentialist philosopher Jean-Paul Sartre What is the sentiment of life, he replied: “I came, I had to do, nothing more!” The truth is sometimes as simple as that.
