3 x 8 = 23

         Yan Hui was a favorite disciple of Confucius who love to learn, good nature. On a day when Yan Hui was on duty, he saw the linen store were dikerumunin many people. He came over and found a buyer and seller of cloth were arguing.
Buyers cried: "3x8 = 23, why did you say 24?"
Yan Hui fabric buyers approached and said: "Friend, 3x8 = 24, do not debate anymore".
Fabric buyers not happy Yan Hui then pointed nose and said: "Who asked for your opinion? If want to have to ask to ask the opinion of Confucius. Rightly or wrongly entitled Confucius say".Yan Hui: "Well, if Confucius says you're wrong, how?"
Fabric buyers: "If Confucius said I was wrong, I cut my head to you. If you are wrong, how?"
Yan Hui: "If I am wrong, my post to you".
Both agreed to bet, then go look for Confucius. After sitting out the problem Confucius, Confucius said to Yan Hui, laughing: "3x8 = 23. Yan Hui, you lose. Kasihkan your office to him." Yan Hui forever not going to argue with the teacher. As Confucius said she heard one, then lowered his hat he gave to the buyer cloth.
The man picked up his hat and went with Yan Hui Yan Hui received assessment puas.Walaupun Confucius but his heart does not agree. Confucius He felt old and senile that he does not want to learn from him. Yan Hui asked for leave of absence for reasons of family matters. Confucius knows the hearts of Yan Hui and gave him leave. Before leaving, Yan Hui, Confucius asked him farewell and quickly returned after the business was complete, and gave Yan Hui two advice: "When the heavy rain, do not take shelter under a tree. And do not kill."
Yan Hui said okay and then go home.
In the way tiba2 high winds accompanied by thunder, one looks like it was raining hard. Yan Hui wanted to take shelter under a tree but tiba2 remember the advice of Confucius and silently thought to obey the teacher once again. He left the tree. Not long ago he went, lightning struck and destroyed the tree. Yan Hui surprised, advices his first teacher is proven.
Am I going to kill people? Yan Hui reached his home it was late and did not want to disturb her sleep. He uses his sword to his room open. Arriving in front of the bed, he felt, and found no one on the left side of the bed and one on the right side. He was very angry, and want to draw his sword. At the time of going thrust his sword, he remembered the advice of Confucius again, do not kill. He then lit a candle and turned the bed beside his wife is the sister of his wife.
The next day, Yan Hui back to Confucius, on his knees and said: "Master, how do teachers know what's going to happen?"
Confucius said: "Yesterday was very hot, is expected to drop as a thunderstorm, so remind teachers not to take shelter under a tree. Yesterday you went with anger and carrying a sword, then remind teachers not to kill".
Yan Hui said: "Teacher, your guess terrific, student is amazed."
Confucius says: "I know you do not get time off for family matters. You do not want to learn anymore from me. Try you think. Yesterday teachers say 3x8 = 23 is true, you lose and lose your office. But if the teacher says 3x8 = 24 is true, Cain defeated the buyer and that means lives will be lost 1. reckon your office is more important or lose 1 life is more important? "
Yan Hui realized his mistake and said: "Teachers are more concerned with major, students actually think teachers are old and senile. Disciple benar2 shame."
Since then, wherever Confucius go Yan Hui always followed.-------------------------------------------------- --------

Do not bet mati2an gara2 to the principles of truth, but ended up regret, never mind too late.Many unnecessary things at stake. A step backward, even obtained is good for everyone.Adamant against customers. We won, but actually lost as well.Adamant against superiors. We won, but actually lost as well.
Adamant against a friend. We won, but actually lost tooVictory is not about medals, but the first was a victory for himself and more important victory in the liver.
