愚人笑話：My Father's Method of Accounting 爸爸的計數(shù)方法

314　My Father's Method of Accounting 爸爸的計數(shù)方法

My father's method of accounting for the hundreds of cattle on his ranch was very unique. Every spring, he would move the herd down a long ramp, through a wooden gate and into a holding pen for inspection. As each animal entered the pen, he marked the count on the gate. One summer, he went to the bank to apply for a loan, using his cattle for collateral. The bank officer asked to see his records. “No problem,” replied Dad. He went back to the ranch, took the gate off its hinges and brought it to the bank. He got the loan.

英語笑話

我爸用與眾不同的方法來數(shù)他牧場里的幾百頭牛。每年春天，他把他的牛群趕下一個很長的人工坡道，通過一個木制的柵欄，進入一個牛圈做檢查。每一頭牛進入牛圈，他就在柵欄上劃一道。一年夏天，他到銀行去申請貸款，用他的牛群作抵押品。銀行職員要看他的記錄。他說：“沒問題。”他走回牧場，把柵欄門從鉸鏈上拆下來帶到銀行。他得到了貸款。
