錢(qián)的笑話：3、 No bullets 彈盡糧絕

3. No bullets

There was a man whose house was being robbed. The robber pointed a gun at the man and asked him to give him his money and valuables.

The man then told him, "To tell you the truth, nowadays the economy has gone down. My company has almost gone bankrupt1, so I don't have anything for you. So if you shoot me, it won't do you any good. Even though we look like this, we don't have any more money. We also have many debts2. "

The robber sighed3, "That's right. Lately, all the houses that I've robbed had nothing. Look at my gun, I don't even have money to buy bullets. I couldn't even feed my gun! "

Notes:

1. bankrupt 破產(chǎn)

2. debt 債務(wù)

3. sigh 嘆氣

彈盡糧絕

有位男士被打劫，搶劫者進(jìn)到他家，拿槍正對(duì)著他，要他把錢(qián)和貴重物品都拿出來(lái)。

他連忙說(shuō)：“說(shuō)實(shí)話，這陣子經(jīng)濟(jì)不景氣，我的公司都快破產(chǎn)了，我真的沒(méi)什么可以奉獻(xiàn)，你打死我也沒(méi)用。你是知道的，現(xiàn)在到處都經(jīng)濟(jì)不景氣，不只我們一家。盡管我們看著不錯(cuò)，其實(shí)真的一塊錢(qián)都沒(méi)有，還到處欠貸呢！”

搶劫者一聲長(zhǎng)嘆：“這就對(duì)了！事實(shí)上，我上哪一家打劫都這樣說(shuō)。什么都沒(méi)有了，所以呢，你看，就連我這口槍也沒(méi)有子彈。我連槍都養(yǎng)不起了！”
