When the appointed time came, the rich man came to pick up the painting on time.
富翁看了看画,又看了看画家,心想:“画得倒是挺象我的,但是500美金太多了,不能轻易给他。”富翁灵机一动,想到了一个好主意。
The rich man looked at the painting, and then at the painter. He thought, "it looks like mine, but 500 dollars is too much for him." The rich man had a good idea.
他转头假装生气地说:“这画的根本不是我,500美金我不能给你!”
He turned and pretended to be angry and said, "it's not me at all. I can't give you 500 dollars!"
画家想了想,对富翁说:不要没关系!”画家说完,就用笔在这幅画下写了个“贼”字,富翁只好乖乖地用500美金买下了这幅画。
The painter thought about it and said to the rich man, "don't worry!" After the painter finished, he wrote a word "thief" under the painting with a pen. The rich man had to buy the painting with 500 dollars.
