The newsstand owner smiled and said, "This is not a beautiful picture, it's a magazine. There are not only the cover photos but also many more inside. I just flipped through it. After reading it, it made me full of passion, and I want to go back to find my wife."
The newsstand owner took the magazine down, but did not give it to them. Instead, he took it in his hand and flipped it gently. The two young men were completely attracted by the beauties inside.
Just when they were in high spirits, the newsstand owner suddenly closed the book and took it back.
"why don't you turn the pages?"
"This is for sale. If you read it all, who would buy it?"
They thought he was stingy. One asked, "How much?"
"$3."
They were stunned.
"What? How much?"
"$3 per copy," the owner repeated.
"$3? Are you robbing us? A magazine for $3?" one exclaimed.
The owner shrugged, "I didn't set the price; the publisher did. Look."
He showed them the back cover price: $3.
