Once 

upon a time somewhere at the foot of the Changpai mountain, there was a 

tavern at which travelers and hunters exchanged money to be used inside 

and 

outside 

the 

small 

town. 

Most 

people 

knew 

that 

the 

keeper 

of 

the 

tavern 

and his wife were very greedy. They cheated people by playing tricks on 

the scales and even charged additional fees for no reasons. 

One day~ 

Scene I 

(Customers are talking, laughing and drinking in the tavern. A traveler 

just comes in, finds a seat and sits down.) 

Hunter 1: We hunted many animals today. (laughing) Let's have some more 

drink.  

Hunter 2: Yeahl That's a good idea.
