“Yes, a strange dream,” replied Hassan. “Why don’t you dig around that tree and see if it’s true?”

“My friend, it was just a dream and anyway it’s too hot to dig.”

Hassan said, “If you do not want to dig, I will. Sell your dream to me.”

“How much will you pay?” asked Jehdi.

Hassan agreed to pay 300 coins.
