- Abstract
- en_US This story centers around a young man and the ox he raised. This ox suggests that the young man bet the local millionaire a huge sum of money that he, the ox, could pull 50 wagons of rice. When the day for the performance arrives, the young man whips the ox, who does not move. The artist's best picture shows the young man crying in disappointment. On the way home, it comes clear that the ox was offended by the man's harsh words and beating. He suggests a second wager for double the stakes. On this performance day, the man bathes the ox and encourages him, and he wins the bet. They remain lifelong friends. In "Teachings obtained from this tale" we find "Melodious speech naturally impresses the listeners." The page for this moral includes an outline of a major character from the story and a colored model to use in coloring in this outline. The outside front-cover has a symbol for Green Life publishing, and the inside front-cover repeats that along with a symbol for Green Ocean paper. The publisher's symbol seems to be two purple heads reading an open red book; that symbol appears three times. There is a page of vocabulary on the inside back cover, with a picture of all six books in the series on the back cover. The pamphlet is twelve pages long, about 7½" x 6¾".
