A farmer carelessly lost an expensive gold watch in the barn on the farm, where he searched for everywhere but failed. So he put a notice on the gate of the farm: whoever finds the gold watch will be rewarded ＄100.
People tried their best to look for the watch in order to get the reward. However, the barn was too large and the straw in the barn was too thick. It was getting dark and they were still unable to find it. So they gave up the reward of ＄100 one by one.
But only a small boy was still not discouraged but kept looking for it .He had nothing to eat throughout the day. In order to solve the family problem, he looked forward to finding the gold watch and let his parents, brothers and sisters have a full meal.
The night was already getting late, the boy was also tired. He was lying in the straw to have a rest when he heard a strange “tick-tock”. He immediately held his breath and listened carefully, and followed the sound. He found the watch and got the reward.
