 A man was selling medicine at a market. At first he sold medicine for colds for just a dollar one bottle. Many people wanted to buy it and the man's young assistant moved quickly through the crowd collecting(收集) money and giving out medicine.

  Then,when there were more and more people,the man,holding up(举起) a bottle of medicine, said, "And now,ladies and gentlemen, I am not going to charge you $ 100 a bottle for this medicine. I am not going to charge you $50 a bottle, either. Now,ladies and gentlemen!I am going to charge you just $ 10, and you can live forever after taking this medicine.”

  Most of the people did not believe this.

  One person shouted, "If it can make people live forever, why don't you drink it yourself?" Then another man cried, " Yes, you look as if you are at least sixty years old." "Thank you,sir," the man answered. "I am so glad you said that. My real(真正的) age is 329.”

The people laughed at this but there were still some people who wanted to buy the medicine. One of them spoke to the man's assistant as she passed by, "Is that true?" he asked. "Is he 329?" "Don't ask me," the assistant said. "I have only worked for him for 150 years."
