Once upon a time, there was a poor carpenter who always cut woods on the forest. One day, he cut woods on the edge of the valley. He cut the wood with pleasure. Suddenly, because he too happy, the carpenter’s axe escped from his hand and fall into the deep valley. He sat on the edge of the valley and cried there. “How do I cut the woods without my axe?” He said. He cried all the noon. Suddenly, a fairy appeared from the deep valley and asked the poor carpenter, “What happen carpenter? Why do you cry?” “I was cut some woods here, but my axe was escaped from my hand and fall into that valley.” Answered the poor carpenter. “Oh... I see.... let me help you.” Said the Fairy. Then, the fairy appeared again to the surface of the valley and said, “Is this your axe, carpenter?” at the same time the fairy showed the golden axe. “No! That’s not my axe!” answered him. Then, the fairy took another axe and said, “Is this your axe, carpenter?” at the same time the fairy showed the silver axe. “No! That’s not my axe!” Then the fairy took another axe and appeared again, “Is it yours?” at the same time the fairy showed the bronze axe. “Absolutely not!” answered the carpenter. And then, the fairy took another axe and asked, “Is this your axe?” at the same time the fairy showed the carpenter’s axe. “Yeah! That’s mine! Oh thank you good fairy!” said the carpenter. “Because your honesty, as a gift, I give you 3 another axes.” Said the fairy. After he got back his axe with the gifts, the carpenter went home happily.
