The Hidden Gold

There was once a farmer who had a fine olive(橄榄树) garden. He was very hardworking, and the farm always gave so much fruit under his care. But he knew that his three sons were lazy and were eager to make wealth without hard work.

   When the farmer was old and felt his time was coming to an end, he said to his sons, "My sons, there is a pot of gold hidden in the garden. Dig for it, if you wish it."

The sons tried to get him to tell them where the gold was hidden, but he would tell them nothing more.

After the farmer was dead, the sons went to work to find the pot of gold; since they did not know where the hiding-place was, they dug the whole garden. But no pot of gold was found. The three sons were very disappointed

The next olive season, the olive trees in the garden bore more fruit than they had ever give; when it was sold, it gave the sons a whole pot of gold.

Only at this moment did they suddenly understand what the wise father had meant.
