had an idea: What if I put many fireflies together? 2 Then he found a thin white cloth bag, caught as many
fireflies as possible, and kept it up. Although it did not work as well as a lamp, 3 Every night, he studied
under the light of fireflies. Because of his hard work and cleverness, Che Yin later became an excellent government
official (政府官员).
