When life was very hard, a farmer said to a
barber1: "Now corn's
lower2 in price. I think you should shave for half price." "I can't, sir," said the barber, "I really should charge more because when corn's cheap, farmers are unhappy and worried. All of them make such long faces that I have twice the ground to go over."
生活很艱難的時候,一個農場主對理發師說:“現在糧食跌價了,你給人刮臉也應該只收半價。” “不行啊,先生。”理發師說,“其實我應該多收一點錢的,因為糧食跌價了,農場主都很不高興了,發愁了,一個個都愁得把臉拉得很長。我要刮的地方比原來大了一倍啦。”
