When Hermes heard that his statue was a spare, he felt and said something

Hermes wanted to know how much respect he was held in the human world, so he turned into a mortal and went to a statuer's shop. He saw the statue of Zeus, Hermes.

Asked, "How much is it worth?" The statue man said

One silver dollar. Hermes smiled again and asked, "How much is Hera's statue worth?"

The statue bearer said, "It's a little more expensive." Later, when Hermes saw his statue and thought that as an oracle and patron saint of merchants, people would have more respect for him, so he asked

How much is this worth? The statue bearer said, "If you buy those two, this one will be spared, and you will give it away for free."

When Hermes heard this, he immediately shuddered and rebuked: "Nonsense, how can you give away his statue as a gift? Aren't you afraid of being punished?

At this time, Hermes's face was a little hideous, his face was red, and he was obviously angry. The statue man looked at him in amazement, as if he had seen a monster: "Since Hermes is the patron god of merchants, he should know that this is the way merchants do business, and as far as I know, he is still a generous god, how can he account for this little bit of skin?"

Hermeston was speechless, his expression was very complicated, and he found a reason to leave in disgrace. This story is for those who love vanity and are not taken seriously.

Hermes was very angry when he heard this, and in a fit of rage he revealed his original form. The statue holder was frightened and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. Hermes said angrily

I am both an oracle and your patron, and how dare you despise me? The statue man said, "The villain dares to despise Your Excellency."

It's just that we are in business, and if anyone buys more things, I will give him some worthless additions. It's not about devaluing you. Hermes had no choice but to say unreasonably

That doesn't add to me. The statue bearer said, "Yes, if anyone buys two of your statues, I will definitely use Zeus as an add-on."

Hermeston turned to joy and said, "That's pretty much!" He gave the statue a silver ingot, and went back triumphantly.

The statue man stood up, looked at the silver ingot in his hand, and scolded with a "bah", "Fuck, do you think you're a god's angel?" Lao Tzu wants to use you as an add-on. ”

This story is for people who don't really want to do things for people, but who threaten others with force at every turn, and who people hate the most.

The boss's splash of ice water on Hermes's head made him embarrassed and disappointed. As the saying goes, if you plant a melon, you will get a melon, and if you plant a bean, Hermes is usually cynical and does not feel at ease with his job, so his idol can only be used as an add-on to the customer, and he ends up with an almost "free" value. Not only is the boss's vanity a devastating blow to Hermes's vanity, but more importantly, the author intends to show the disdain and hatred of the common people for the dereliction of duty.

You can't be a person who loves vanity, arrogance, arrogance, and subjective assumptions.

Hermes may be ashamed or angry in both cases.

First he was very angry, then he was embarrassed and helpless, well, he said, "Nonsense, how can you just give away his statue as a gift?" Aren't you afraid of being punished? ”

How would you feel if it were you?

Hermes told him about his place in the Sculptor's shop. After hearing this, Zeus said solemnly: "My child, are you not wrong?

Thou art the patron saint of the merchants, but thou hast done nothing good for them; Every oracle should be humble, but you love vanity ......It doesn't matter whether others respect you or not, the important thing is that each of us should do what we have to do. Hermes lowered his head and thought for a moment, seemed to understand something, and then said, "Then, I will work hard in the future, and try to do something beneficial to the merchants."

Zeus smiled and said, "That's right. At that point, people will naturally respect you.

The value of the first two answers is getting higher and higher, so that Helamos will feel that his statue may be worth more, and when Hermes means that he is worth more, the statue owner gives him a real blow, Hermes's statue is worthless, and this dramatic twist makes the whole storyline fuller, with ups and downs, and the theme more clear.

Hermes listened to the statuer's words, his angry head was going to **, he thought for a while, and suddenly came up with a good idea, so he asked with a smile: "If I give you three silver dollars to buy the statue of Hermes, will you give me those two as an additive?" ”

When the statue owner heard this, he really couldn't believe his ears, and then he thought that he might have met the stupidest fool in the world, so he said, "Okay, okay, as long as you pay three silver dollars to buy two statues, it is not the same thing who will add to the head." ”

Hermes said solemnly, "No." I want you to tell me: the statue of Hermes is worth three silver dollars, and the statues of Zeus and Hera are the additions. ”

The statue holder was stunned for a moment, and said, "According to you, the statue of Hermes is the most expensive, worth three silver dollars." If you pay him three silver dollars, and take the other two if you want, I will not take a penny; If you don't want to, I'll throw him away. ”

So Hermes happily bought his statue for three silver dollars, and returned to heaven satisfied. The statue holder was also very happy, he looked at the silver dollar in his hand happily, and said to himself: "I really can't imagine that there is such a stupid fool in the world!"

He looked at the statues of Zeus and Hera and said, "These two can be sold for two silver dollars." ”

This story is for those who think they are clever and who are self-deceived. The purpose is: to highlight the sky-high price of the statue of Hermes.

I just learned it, but I forgot, I'm sorry.

The expression and mentality are different, and the irony works.

Each time it is worse because it is very proud and the result is worse than others.
