Lucky Hans (9)
The knife grinder laughed loudly.
" You could earn as much as that silver in a week, if you had a stone like mine and sharpened knives on it for a living. "
Hans gaped at the knife-grinder, thinking hard.
" Is that so ? " he breathed at last.
" kind sir ? Will you change your stone for this fine fat goose ? "
" That I will, " the knife-grinder replied jovially.

Hans thanked him, and wishing him a very good night, set off on the remainder of his journey to his home village.
