After a while, a young man came over. He looked worried and asked the farmer, “Have you found a bag I lost it a few minutes ago.”
“Look! Is it yours ” the farmer smiled.
“Yes,” the young man got the bag back. But after counting the gold coins, the young man said that ten of them were missing. He asked the farmer to return ten coins. The farmer was so angry. So they went to a judge (法官) for help.
The judge asked the farmer how many gold coins he found. He replied thirty. Then the judge asked the young man how many gold coins he lost and he answered forty.
