Once upon a time
in a land far far away
there lived a old man
who was a farmer
he toiled and labored all day
but never made much money
one day a traveller passed by
and asked if he could stay the night
the farmer agreed since he was a nice chap
that night
the farmer asked the traveller what he did for a living
and the traveler told him
" i look for diamonds"
the traveller told the old man all about the business
the old man found out it was a highly profitable business
and that there was lots of money to be made
so the next day after the traveler had left
the old man put his farm for sale
he moved out of his farm and sold the farm to a peasant who had holes in his socks
years passed
and after 10 years searching for diamonds
the old man never found any
one day
he went back to his old farm
and was surprised that there was a mansion built on the farm
the old man knocked on the door
and was greeted by the peasant
now dressed in a suit and wearing diamonds
the old man was puzzled
he asked you did you make so much money?
and the peasant replied
i found diamonds on this farm
the end
