2. Shang Yang established a tree as a letter

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Shang Yang presided over the political reform with the support of Qin Xiaogong. At that time, at a time of frequent wars and panic, in order to promote political reform, Shang Yang ordered a 30-foot-long wood to be erected outside the south gate of the capital, and made a promise in public: whoever can move this wood to the north gate will be rewarded with 10 Liang. None of the onlookers believe that such an easy thing can get such a high reward, so no one is willing to try.

Therefore, Shang Yang raised the reward to 50 Liang. There must be a brave man under the reward, and finally someone carried the wood to the north gate. Shang Yang immediately rewarded him with fifty taels of gold. Shang Yang's move established prestige in the hearts of the people, and Shang Yang's next reform was quickly popularized in Qin State.

3. Adolescents in Nepal

In the early years, few foreigners set foot in the southern foothills of the Himalayas in Nepal. Later, many Japanese people came here for sightseeing, which is said to be because of the honesty of a teenager. One day, several Japanese photographers invited a local teenager to buy beer, and the teenager ran for more than three hours. The next day, the boy offered to buy them beer. The photographers gave him a lot of money this time, but the boy didn't come back until the afternoon of the third day. As a result, photographers talked about it and thought that the boy cheated the money away.

On the third night, the boy knocked on the photographer's door. It turned out that he only bought four bottles of beer. Later, he climbed a mountain, crossed a river and bought six more bottles. When he came back, he broke three bottles. He took the broken glass in tears and returned the change to the photographer. All the people present were moved. This story deeply touched many foreigners. Later, more and more tourists came here.

4, Han Xin repay kindness.

Han Xin, the founding hero of the Han Dynasty, lived with his brother and sister-in-law when he was a child and lived on leftovers. Little Han Xin helps his brother during the day and studies hard at night, but his mean sister-in-law still hates his reading, and thinks it is useless to read. So Han Xin had to sleep on the street, hungry.

An old woman who works as a servant sympathizes with him, supports him to study and gives him food every day. Facing the sincerity of the old woman, Han Xin was very grateful. He said to the old man, "I must repay you when I grow up." The old woman smiled and said, "I'll bury it when you grow up." Later, Han Xin became a famous soldier and was named King of Chu by Liu Bang. He still remembers the old man who helped him. So he found the old man, took him to his palace and treated her like his mother.

5. The story of a Dutch businessman

From 1596 to 1598, a Dutch captain named Barents tried to find a route from the north to Asia. His merchant ship was trapped by the frozen sea when passing through Sanyan Cliff (now an island in Russia). Sanyan Cliff is located in the Arctic Circle, where Captain Barents and 17 Dutch sailors spent a long winter of eight months. They removed the deck of the ship as fuel to keep their body temperature in the cold of MINUS 40 degrees; They hunt for clothes and food to make a living.

Unfortunately, eight people died in extreme danger. But the Dutch businessman did an incredible thing. They simply don't touch the goods entrusted to them by others, which include clothes and medicines that can save their lives. When winter went and spring came, the surviving merchants finally brought the goods back to Holland almost intact and delivered them to their customers. At the cost of their lives, they stuck to their beliefs and created business rules that will be passed down from generation to generation.

At that time, this widely circulated story also won the world market of maritime trade for Dutch businessmen.
