extremely grand palace half way and the owner of the palace asked him to stay and live in the palace. 
       The man said, “I have been working hard during my life and now I just want to eat and sleep without any work.”
       The owner of the palace said, “If so, there is nowhere else better than here for you. There is plenty
of seafood and delicacies (美味佳肴) in my palace, and you can eat whatever you like without anyone
stopping you. And nothing needs to be done by you.” Then, the man settled down (安定) in the palace.

bit lonely and void. So he went to the palace owner and said, “It is very bored to live by just eating and
sleeping every day. Now I show no interest in this kind of life any more. Could you help me find a job?”
       The owner replied, “Sorry, there is no job here at all.”
       After another several months, the man could not go on with the life and went to the palace owner
again, “I really can not stand this kind of life any more. If you do not offer me a job, I would prefer to
go to hell instead of living here.”
