One day my chair had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty getting it fixed (修理) as there were many furniture shops nearby. So I left home with the chair. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception (接待). I was wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.
The second shop was just the same, and the third and the fourth.
I entered another shop with a plan in my mind. I said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy the chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty dollars,” I said. “OK,” he said. “It’s got a broken leg,” I told him. “Yes, I noticed that. It’s nothing.”
Everything was going according to the plan. “What will you do with it?” I asked. “Oh, I’ll sell it after fixing it.” “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What? You’ve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, but I’ve changed my mind.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped (目的达到).“I know what you want. You want me to fix the chair,” he said. “We don’t do repairs (修理), not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’ll fix this for you.”

Jay, an American, wanted to write a book about famous churches (教堂)around the world. Firstly, Jay bought a plane ticket and took a trip to Columbus, Ohio, USA, thinking that he would start by working his way across the USA from East to West. 
On his first day he was inside a church taking photos when he noticed a golden telephone on the wall with a sign that read "$10,000 per call".
Jay was intrigued so he asked a priest (牧师) what the telephone was used for.
The priest told him that it was a direct (直接的) line to heaven(天堂) and that for $10,000 you could talk to God. Jay thanked the priest and went along his way.
Next stop was in Des Moines, and there at a very large church, he saw the same looking golden telephone with the same sign under it. A nearby nun(修女)told him that it was a direct line to heaven and that for $10,000 he could talk to God.
Jay decided to travel to Australia to see if they had a similar phone. He arrived at Western Australia, and again, in the church he entered, there was the same looking golden telephone, but this time the sign under it read "40 cents per call."
Somewhat surprised, Jay asked the priest about the sign. 'Father Brian, I travelled all over the world and I saw this same golden telephone in many churches. I know it is a direct line to Heaven, but in all of them price was $10,000 per call. Why is it so cheap here?'
