On this day, they wanted to go by water, so the family got on a big passenger ship. The rich businessman and his son watched the sailors help them put all their luggage in the cabin before they went to rest in peace. But what they didn't expect was that the danger had come. It turned out that the two sailors felt particularly heavy when lifting the jewelry box, so they pried open a corner of the box with a sharp knife and found it full of jewelry. When the two sailors told the secret to other sailors, they decided to secretly kill the rich family at the right time and then divide the jewels equally.
In the evening, the excited sailors were discussing how to carry out the robbery plan. Coincidentally, the rich businessman got up in the middle of the night to find something to eat, and he heard the conspiracy of the sailors. The wealthy businessman was scared to death and told all this to his family at once, so the family discussed how to avoid the coming disaster in fear.
My son suggested taking the jewels out of the box and hiding them on everyone, so that the sailors could not find them.
"But, in that case, the sailors will still find jewels from us, so we can only die faster!" Everyone immediately rejected their son's suggestion.
The daughter made another suggestion: "Let's take the initiative to hand over the jewelry ourselves. In this case, perhaps the sailors will be merciful and spare our lives for the sake of jewelry. "
At first, everyone thought it might be the only feasible way, but after careful analysis, the rich businessman thought it was absolutely impossible. "Absolutely not. Since the sailors agreed to rob jewelry and kill people, it shows that they are afraid of being exposed and trying to escape the punishment of the law. If we give them the jewels, they will see that things have been exposed and they will not let us leave alive. "
Everyone tried several methods in a row, but none of them worked. The family is both anxious and scared. They all know that if they can't figure out a way early, their lives and property will face serious threats at any time.
Finally, after consulting with his wife, the rich businessman came up with a brilliant idea, and they decided to stick to the plan at dawn.
At dawn, the sailors came out to work. At this moment, the rich businessman who was having breakfast suddenly threw his plate at his son. "You bastard, if you don't listen to my arrangement, you won't inherit any of my property!" "
My son ran from the cabin to the deck and shouted, "you stubborn old man." I won't listen to you anymore. I used to be at your mercy. I want to live the life I want! " "Then the son rushed into the hut to pack.
The people on the deck suspected that this might be another quarrel between the traditional father and the trendy son, but the war between father and son did not subside.
The rich businessman suddenly flew into a rage. He wouldn't let his son take anything, saying that he earned it all. My son is angry, too. Ignoring the persuasion of his mother and sister, he rushed to the luggage office to open the jewelry box and then showed the jewels one by one. Suddenly, he closed the box, pushed the box full of jewels into the water at once, and said angrily to his father, "If you don't let me take anything, you won't get the jewels!" "
The sailors next to him were blindsided. Seeing that the wealth they were about to get was thrown into the sea by the prodigal son, they had to give up their previous plot.
In the next two days, the rich businessman and his son still had a big fight from time to time, and said that after landing, they would let the judge decide and let the people on board stay and testify for them.
Two days later, the ship landed. The rich merchant and his son tore at each other to see the judge, while the sailors were still waiting for jokes. The judge came with a well-equipped policeman. The police quickly brought the sailors to the judge, who then told everyone: "These sailors are pirates who often move on the ship. They stole many guests' things and killed at least five passengers. "
The sailors got the punishment they deserved. With the help of the marine police, the wealthy family salvaged the jewelry box thrown into the sea by their son, and the family returned home safely.
Faced with the choice of giving up and giving up, people will choose most of the time. But it ignores the price to pay. Everything can only be obtained by giving up. Many times, people have to know how to give up in order to gain something. If you just want it and don't want to give it up. Then you may lose more.
