Once upon a time, there was a kind-day shepherd boy. His mother was sick. In order to treat his mother, he borrowed money from the rich landlords in the town. The landlord said with an abacus: "Borrow money, but you have to be at my house. I have been working for 50 years." The shepherd boy agreed.

Once, the shepherd boy went up the mountain to put the sheep, saw a grandfather, holding a rice bowl in his hand, the clothes were ragged and had long beards. He said to the shepherd boy: "Good-hearted child, can you give me some food? Yeah?" The shepherd gave all the two cakes she had eaten to the grandfather. The old grandfather gorged and ate, apparently had not eaten for several days. After the meal, the grandfather said: "Thank you, good boy!" Shepherd said: "Grandpa, if you have any need for help, you can tell me, I will try my best." Grandpa thought about it. "Well, my feet are a few blisters," said the grandfather, and took his foot out. "I want you to take me home?" said the shepherd boy: "Yes." He took up the old grandfather. He walked over a bridge, turned over two mountains, walked for a long time, and finally came to the grandfather's house. The shepherd boy sent the old grandfather and went back to the sheep.

The next day, the shepherd boy went to the sheep and once again met the old grandfather. The old grandfather had nothing to eat this day, and the good shepherd boy handed his two cakes to the grandfather. After the meal, the shepherd boy sent his grandfather back home as he did yesterday. On the third day, the shepherd boy went to the sheep and met the old grandfather. The shepherd boy also sent the grandfather back home as he did last time. This time, the grandfather left the shepherd boy. The old grandfather brought the shepherd boy to the backyard of his own home and pushed the door open. The backyard is golden, the shepherd boy is stunned, it is ginseng! The old grandfather turned into a thousand-year ginseng in a blink of an eye. He said to the shepherd boy: "Children, these are my children, even though they dig." The shepherd boy did not have any greed, only dug two small ginseng. The shepherd boy paid the landlord’s debt with the money to sell the small ginseng. The landlord asked the shepherd boy where the money came from. The shepherd boy did not want to say it, but there was no way to tell the landlord about the encounter with the grandfather. The landlord dressed himself as a shepherd boy, gave the grandfather food, and sent the grandfather to go home. The grandfather also took the landlord to the back yard and asked him to dig. The landlord dug up and dug up several large holes in the backyard. Just when the landlord wanted to put a few large bags of ginseng back, the wall fell down and buried the landlord and ginseng together.
