A wise man and grapes
One day, two men went to the market together. Suddenly they found a gold coin on the road and picked it up. They decided to buy something with it. A man wanted to eat something sweet, but the other wanted to drink something. They argued with each other. A wise man came by. After he heard their story, he took them to a fruit shop and asked them to buy some grapes. He said to the man who liked sweet things, “You can eat them because they are sweet.” Then he said to the other man, “You can drink the grape juice. I think it’s the best way for both of you.”。
