[童话大意]一个农场主有一个忠诚的仆人,这个仆人辛辛苦苦地给他干了三年的活,而他却没有付给仆人任何工钱。后来仆人打定主意,想出去看看外面的世界,不再干下去了。他找到农场主说:“我为你勤勤恳恳地做了这么久的事,相信你会根据我的劳动付给我应得的工钱。”农场主是一个极其吝惜的守财奴,只拿出三便士给他,也就是一年一便士的工钱。可怜的仆人对钱没有多少概念, [For fairy tales] A farmer had a loyal servant. The servant worked hard for him for three years, but he did not pay any servants any wages. Later the servant made up his mind and wanted to go out to see the outside world and not go on. He found the farmer and said, “I have done so diligently for you for such a long time. I believe you will pay my due wages according to my labor.” The farmer is a very miserable miser. Give him three pence, which is one pence a year. Poor servants have little concept of money.
