How pig earns money when it doesn’t have money


It was a warm night. I sat in the lounge and watched the fireflies in the bush before my house.

Robert was laying next to my lounge.

“Our vegetables are fresh,” he said.

“Yes.” I nodded. “I will take them to the merchant tomorrow.”

“This is how you get money.”

“Yes.”

“Well, I wondered when you did this job the first time. How could you find a merchant?”

“Well,” I took a cup of cool tea to drink, then I told him, “I didn’t find them. They came to me.”

Robert raised up his head, “Really?”

“Yes.” I put the cup on the table. “I didn’t do anything. I just sat in the house, smiled and laughed from the morning till night, then a merchant came to knock on my door and asked if I had anything to sell to him. I said I had vegetables, he said he bought them. After that, I always take my vegetables to him and other merchants.”

Pig is afraid of someone’s smile


Robert and I were gardening.

From a distance, duck was coming.

“Hello pig, hello Robert,” she said, then she left.

After that, cow came. 

“Hello pig, hello Robert,” he said, then he left.

Next was twin piggies.

“Hello pig, hello Robert,” they said then they left.

I took a heavy sigh.

“Why do you look so upset?” Robert asked.

“I’m not upset. I’m worried,” I replied.

“Why? They were coming with a smile.”

“I better want the mean face of the wolf because at least I know that he is my enemy. But those four guys, I cannot guess what they hide behind their beautiful smiles."

Pig is scared of human’s society


There was a sound coming from the neighbor’s farm.

“What’s the matter?” Robert asked.

“I don’t know. I’ll go to see.”

After telling him, I walked out of the house.

Five minutes later, I came back.

“It’s the son of the master of the duck. He was cheated by a woman who he met online. He lost his savings.”

Robert raised his eyebrows when he heard it, “He has graduated. How can he get cheated?”

“Well, I can say he is too careless. He should know people are good and bad. He can’t trust anyone easily. People who have known each other for many years, see each other face to face, still they can betray; how can he believe in someone he just met through the internet?”

Robert opened his eyes big.

“You know!" I continued, "Some men leave their country for another country and get a wife in that country in order to make it easier for him to find money. Even though he is a married man. And his wives in his homeland don’t oppose - because they want money from their husbands. Some ladies know that the men are already taken, still they agree to be a third party because they want the men to take care of their living expenses. To get money, humans can do everything, especially people online. Some people act they are poor to get help from viewers, some people act they are rich to gain popularity or to scam other's money, some people create fake stories and post on social media to get views, some people act they love each other to get views etc. In current society, the community of people who love the same sex is new and it is famous. Some people fake their identity by pretending they love the same sex in order to be famous, some do it to cheat on same-sex-person to offer them money. There is more than that about the bad things that humans create inside their own society.”

Robert shook his head, “They become scarier.”

Why pig chooses to be a gardener


“Pig, how can you earn money to support your life after you left your master?” Robert asked.

“When I was living with him, I learnt how to grow vegetables. When I left his farm, I grew vegetables then I took them to sell to the merchant,” I responded.

“Why did you choose to grow vegetables instead of doing other things?”

“Because it is the only job that doesn’t need much money to spend on and it can grow even when I am sleeping.”

“Really?”

“Yes.” I smiled. “I just need soil to put it in, water it regularly, then it can grow on itself.”

“I see.” Robert wagged his head.
