Once Upon a time, there’re two persons, Alfred and Mike, who lived in the house of the hill. They needed to carry water by their own from the river on the foot of the hill. It lasted a long time. Then, when Alfred knew Mike would come around to his way of thinking, he discussed to Mike to come up with a new idea in order to figure out the quantity of water. Mike couldn’t rule out this option and agreed with Alfred. Later, they sped up the efficiency and filled out the responsibility. Finally, they contracted that work out after they brought in a lot of money.
