A young farmer walked out from the farm: “I’ll try it. If I guess right, as long as you pay 50 yuan to buy some wine for everyone; If you guess wrong, all my wages will be yours." The rich man laughed excitedly when he heard it. At this time, the farmer said calmly: "The one next to your real eye is just a fake eye, and the one next to your fake eye is just a real eye." The rich man jumped into a rage when he heard it, "You kid, this is shameless!" The farmer smiled apologetically and said, "It was a joke just now. Your left eye was fake."
This time it was the rich man's turn to be surprised. His left eye was indeed fake. Because there were so many people to testify, he didn't dare to go back, so he had to pay out 50 yuan, and then walked away angrily.
The crowd surrounded the farmer and asked him how he guessed it. The farmer smiled slightly: "I changed my bet, and his right eye immediately showed greed; I teased him, and his right eye immediately showed fierceness. But his left eye did not change twice. That’s why I guessed that the left eye was fake.”
