The two honest shopkeepers A and B are the shopkeepers of two shops respectively. They are doing business on the same street. They are honest businessmen. When asked why they treat their customers honestly, shopkeeper A would say: “It's very simple, customers are smart people, and you cannot think you can always deceive them. If they find out I have cheated them, my shop's reputation will be destroyed. Will I not end up paying a cost for this? “ Shopkeeper B will say, “My father taught me that no matter what, to be human is to be honest. To do business is part of being human. Honesty is our duty.” Whose argument do you agree with?
