In a year, bring back the best thing you have found. The onewho can pick the best thing shall be the new king." The first brothersaid, "I will look in every city or town. I will buy the best thing I canfor my father." The next two brothers said, "We will both go on fast shipsover the sea. We will find something better." The last brother said,"I am going to ask the people here in our own land to tell me the bestthing." The other three brothers began to laugh. "Then you will neverbe king!" They said.
