A businessman lost his wallet. There was plenty of money in it. So he makes a promise(诺言), “If someone finds my wallet and returns it to me, I'll give half the money to him.” A dustman(清洁工) found the wallet in a dustbin(垃圾箱). He sent it back to the loser. But the businessman changed his mind.
“There was still a diamond ring(钻戒) in my wallet,” said the loser. “I won't give half the money in my wallet to you before you return it to me!”
“I've never seen a diamond ring in the wallet,” said the dustman.
They began to quarrel. The businessman didn’t do what he had said. The dustman became angry and took him before a judge (法官).
