In China there was a Brazilian, an American and an Argentine, who were drinking in the street. But in China it is prohibited to do so and they were caught red-handed. Under arrest they were sent to the judge to receive their sentence.
The judge scolded them and said each would receive 20 lashes as punishment. But due to the fact that China was in transition between the year of the dog and the mouse, tradition stated that each prisoner had a right to a wish:
- You American! Your country is racist, capitalist, and I hate you, but a promise is a promise! What is your wish, provided it is not to escape punishment?
- I want 1 pillow tied to my back!
- So be it! The beating started and the blows were absorbed by the pillow until the tenth lash when the pillow gave in and the American took 10 lashes.
- Your turn Argentina! Your people are very arrogant and rogue. I hate you, but a promise is a promise! What is your wish?
- I Want you to tie 2 pillows on my back! And so it was done. At the fifteenth lash the pillows gave in and the Argentine took 5 of 20 lashes. But he was happy because the American had taken more.
It was the turn of the Brazilian.
- Well, well, you're Brazilian ... nice people, good football, humble ... as I like your people you will have 2 requests!
- Well, I wanted to take 100 lashes ...
- Amazing! On top of all you are brave! Your request will be done! What's next?
- Tie the Argentine in my back!
