There were two servants in Roger’s house, one of them is bright and brilliant, and one of them is not that smart. One day, Roger had to leave the town for a few weeks for his business, and he left the house for the two servants to care for. Before Roger left, he told the servants to remember to receive the money from one of his fellow businessman, because he will be away at the time when the businessman comes. A few days after Roger left, a well-dressed man with a big mustache came to the house and gave half of the money to the smart servant, and half to the other servant. The amount of the money was so great; it is enough to buy an entire castle. After the businessman left, the smart servant thought deeply, and decided that he will run away with the money. The other servant didn’t think much about the money; he put it in a box and kept it safely in his master’s room. That night, the smart servant packed all his belongings and departed, leaving the house to the other servant. During the next few days after the smart servant left, a huge snowstorm struck the town and covered everything with snow. After the roads were cleared, the dumb servant went out, and found the smart servant frozen to death in the midst of the snow. The dumb servant later got the news that Roger also died in the snowstorm. Because Roger has no relatives, the dumb servant received all the money and wealth that Roger had. The dumb servant built many great bridges and donated money to the poor, he was loved by everyone in the town.
