Description:A greedy rich man owns a big store. When people he believes to be poor come to the store, he does not speak to them but just releases the dogs to chase them away. One man, tired of being treated this way, seeks advice from the priest. The priest gives him ten cents and tells him to buy white flowers in the market and resell them for a small profit. Then he should buy more and resell and keep doing that until he has some money. The priest then sends San Antonio to the store dressed in old clothes and hat and tells him to ask to speak to the boss. The worker tells him the boss is away. The priest then sends San Antonio back on a nice horse with nice clothes and hat to speak to the store owner. He is received well, invited in, and offered nice food to eat. He says he will eat if he can have some of the stuff in the store. The man agrees. The next day the man wakes up to find his store completely empty. He sobs and weeps because he is as poor as he was before he became a business person. His wife tells him that it must have been a saint. At 6:23 TCR speaks in response, saying that the story is well told and that the language is endangered. These stories need to be documented. Audio duration [00:08:03]
