Extract and the Chinese Parable

Extract Systems meets the Parable of the Chinese Farmer

There is a Chinese parable about the farmer who had a horse. One day, the horse ran off. That was bad. A couple days later, the horse came back and brought with it three wild horses. That was good.

A while past, the farmer’s son was training one of the horses and broke his leg. That was bad. After that, the military came through the village conscripting young men. Because of his broken leg, they left the son behind. That was very, very good.
