At noon he rested in a town. When he wanted to go on, the stable-boy (馬童) brought his horse, saying :

"A nail(釘子) is wanting, sir, in the shoe of the horse's left front foot. "

"Let it be wanting," answered the businessman, "the shoe will stay on for ten kilometers. "

In the afternoon he arrived at a hotel. The stable-boy came to him again and said, "Sir, a shoe is wanting from your horse' s left front foot. Shall we get a new one?"

"Let it still be wanting," said the businessman, "the horse will be all right for a few kilome-ters more. "
