A man came out of his yard, walking in despair. He has been unemployed for a long time. His family's financial condition was in disarray.
While his neighbors are busy filling the house with luxury goods, He is still struggling to find ways to provide for her family's basic needs, clothing and food.
His children have not bought clothes for a long time, his wife is often angry because he cannot buy proper household items. The man could not stand this condition, and he was not sure that his trip this time would bring him the luck of finding a job.
When the man was walking on a lonely road, he suddenly stumbled on something. Out of curiosity he bent down and picked it up. Then said: "Oh, only the old coins are dented," he grumbled in disappointment. Even so, he took his coins to collectors. Fortunately, the collector valued the coin for $ 20.
So excited, the man began to think about what he would do with this windfall. As he passed a wood shop he saw several pieces of wood being sold.
He was able to make some shelves for his wife because he once said that they had nowhere to store pots and jars. After buying lumber for $ 20, he took it and went home.
On his way he passed a furniture making workshop. The shop owner's eye had been trained to see the wood he was carrying. The wood is beautiful, the color is good, and the quality is well known. Incidentally, at that time there was an order for furniture. He offered the man a sum of $ 100.
The man seemed hesitant, but the craftsman convinced him and was able to offer ready-made furniture for him to choose.
Incidentally there is a wardrobe that his wife likes. He exchanged wood and borrowed a cart to carry a cupboard. He immediately took her home.
On the way he passed a new housing estate. A woman decorating her new home looks out the window and sees the man pushing a cart filled with a beautiful wardrobe.
The woman is hooked and offers a price of $ 200. When the man hesitates, the woman raises the offer to $ 300. The man agrees. Then return the cart to the craftsman and go home.
At the door of the village he stopped and wanted to confirm the money he received. He reached into his pocket and counted the $ 300 bills. Just then a robber appeared from the bush, brandished his dagger, stole the money, and then fled.
The man's wife happened to see and ran towards her husband saying: “What happened? Are you alright? What did the robber take? The man shrugged and said: "Oh, nothing. Only dented coins I found this morning".
