A greedy stranger heard this story and had an idea. He went to the wizard and said, "I lost my umbrella, too!" The wizard showed him a beautiful gold umbrella. "Is this your umbrella?" he asked. The greedy stranger smiled. "Yes, that is my umbrella," he lied. "Give it to me!" Instead of giving him the umbrella, the wizard clapped his hands once, and it began to rain. Soon the greedy man was wet and cold. The wizard said, "An honest man gets more than he loses. A dishonest man gets nothing. I will not give you any umbrellas."
