Text for No 10-11.
Once upon a time, there was a selfish and greedy man who lost thirty gold coins. He went to his friend’s house and told her how he lost his gold coins. His friend was a kind woman.
As the woman’s daughter was walking along the street, she found thirty gold coins. When she arrived home, she told her mother what she had found. The girl’s mother told her that the gold coins belonged to her friend and she asked him to come. When the selfish man arrived, she told him how her daughter had found his thirty gold coins and handed them to him.
However, after counting the gold coins, the man said that ten of them were missing. He accused the girl of taking the coins, as he had forty gold coins. He added that he would claim the outstanding 10 gold coins from her, but the woman refused.
Then, the man went to court and informed the judge about what had taken place between him and the girl’s mother. When the girl and her mother arrived, the judge asked the girl how many gold coins she found. She replied thirty. The judge then asked the selfish man how many gold coins he had lost and he answered forty.
The judge then told the man that the gold coins did not belong to him, because the girl found thirty- gold coins, not forty as he claimed. If anybody was looking for thirty gold coins, he would send for the girl. On the contrary, if forty gold coins were found, he would send them for the man.
Finally, the man confessed that he lied and lost only thirty gold coins. However, the judge did not listen to him.

Nobody could tell him anything about it. Just then George, with his little axe, came into the room. His father asked him about the tree. This was a hard question to answer, and for a moment George was staggered by it, but quickly recovering himself he cried: “I cannot tell a lie, father, you now I cannot tell a lie! I did cut it with my little axe”
Surprisingly, the anger died out of his father’s face, and taking the boy tenderly in his arms, he said: “my son, that you should not be afraid to tell the trust.

When they arrived in Borneo they set out immediately to find the famous mountain. Their journey up the rugged slopes of mount Kinabalu proved very difficult. The dragon guarded his cave very fiercely and killed many of their soldiers.
Then Wee San had clever idea. He climbed a tall tree, so he could see the dragon’s cave. He noted what time the dragon left his cave to hunt for food and what time he returned to it.
Next he ordered his men to make a fake pearl and a large kite. He waited until the dragon left his cave. Then he placed the fake pearl in a bag, slung it across his shoulder and flew up to the mountain-top on the kite. He exchanged the real pearl for the fake one and then his brother pulled his kite back to the ground.
