Eat fruit give gold

In the old time, there were two people: Nam and Thanh. Nam was Thanh’s older brother. Their parents were not lucky and died soon. Nam was crafty. Opposite, Thanh was so honest. So, Nam despoiled everything from their family and became rich man. Thanh only had a poor house and a fruit tree. One day, a big bird came to Thanh’s house and ate some fruit from fruit tree. After that, a big bird picked Thanh up to the island to get a lot of gold. Nam heard that; he gave all property to Thanh to get fruit tree. Then, he did some thing like Thanh and the big bird also came there to eat fruit. Next, the big bird also picked him up to island to get gold but he was very avaricious. Actually, he got more and more gold so the big bird couldn’t pick him up come back his house. The big bird kicked out him on the pacific. Finally, he died there.
