reward？ scoffed the merchant, greedily counting his gold. why, the purse i dropped had 200 pieces of gold in it. youve already stolen more than the reward！ go away or ill tell the police. 重谢？ 商人一边贪婪地数着金币，一边嘲讽地说， 啊，我丢失的钱包里有200枚金币，你偷走的金币比我要给你重谢的还要多。走开，不然我要叫警察了！
im an honest man, said the beggar defiantly, let us take this matter to the court. 我是个诚实的人！ 乞丐反驳道， 我们到法庭评理去！
in court the judge patiently listened to both sides of the story and said, i believe you both. justice is possible！ merchant, you stated that the purse you lost contained 200 pieces of gold. well, thats a considerable cost. but, the purse this beggar found had only 100 pieces of gold. therefore, it couldnt be the one you lost. 法庭上，法官耐心地听完双方的陈述，然后说： 我相信你们两个人，法律是公正的！商人，你说你丢失的钱包里有200枚金币，这可是相当大的一笔钱。但是这个乞丐发现的钱包里只有100枚金币，因此，这个钱包不是你丢的那个。
