Several painters tried to mix the color right, but none comes close enough to satisfy the women. Eventually, a painter comes, he is confident that he can mix the proper color. The woman is pleased with the result, and the painter becomes famous. Years later, he retires, and turns the business over to his son. “Dad”, asks his son, “there is something I’ve got to know. How did you get those walls to match the vase so perfectly?” “Son”, the father replies, it’s not difficult. I’ve just painted the vase together.”下载本文
