The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question is incomplete because it does not include any text of reference, we can say the following.

The part of the excerpt from Voltaire’s Candide best develops the theme that different people find value in different things is this one:<em> "We desire nothing of your Majesty," says Candide, "but a few sheep laden with provisions, pebbles, and the earth of this country." The King laughed. "I cannot conceive," said he, "what pleasure you Europeans find in our yellow clay, but take as much as you like, and great good may it do you."</em>

This surprised the King because he couldn't conceive the idea that Candide would prefer simpler things instead of more fancy ones. But that is true. Different people prefer different things. You do cannot anticipate that people would be happy with luxurious things when maybe they prefer the simple things in life.

This is part of the book "Candide," written by French philosopher Voltaire in 1759.
