从前有个国家,里面人人是贼。一到傍晚,他们手持万能钥匙和遮光灯笼出门,走到邻居家里行窃。破晓时分,他们提着偷来的东西回到家里,总能发现自己家也失窃了。他们就这样幸福地居住在一起。没有不幸的人,因为每个人都从别人那里偷东西,别人又再从别人那里偷,依次下去,直到最后一个人去第一个窃贼家行窃。该国贸易也就不可避免地是买方和卖方的双向欺骗。政府是个向臣民行窃的犯罪机构,而臣民也仅对欺骗政府感兴趣。所以日子倒也平稳,没有富人和穷人。有一天——到底是怎么回事没人知道——总之是有个诚实人到了该地定居。到晚上,他没有携袋提灯地出门,却呆在家里抽烟读小说。贼来了,见灯亮着,就没进去。 In the past there was a country where everyone was a thief. In the evening, they went out to the neighbors’ home with their master keys and blackout lanterns. At dawn, they returned to their home with the stolen things, always finding their home stolen. They live happily together. There is no unfortunate person, because everyone stole something from others, others are stolen from others, and then go on until the last person to the first thief steal. The country’s trade is also inevitably a two-way deception between buyers and sellers. The government is a criminal organization that steals from the subjects and the subjects are only interested in cheating the government. So the days are also flat, not the rich and the poor. One day - in the end no one knows - in any case, an honest man settled in the area. In the evening, he did not go out with a bag lantern, but stayed at home smoking and reading novels. The thief came, see the light is on, did not go in.
