What is it that leads Badam, the main hero, to become in the first chapter from beggar to millionaire? Where does Ferbad get so much gold that every week he offers banquets to the poor and beggars and, at the end of the meal, presents each one of them with a plate or cap of gold? How is the fact that the merchant Zohrab, after selling his goods with great profits, calls the buyers back and, returning the money, restores the goods and makes them a bonfire? Why is it that the blacksmith Iskander, putting the iron on the anvil, barely raises the hammer to flot it, throws the tool to one side and runs like a madman towards the cemetery, where he embraces three tombs in succession and leaves fall bitter tears? You will have there a story that includes several other stories, each one of them with its hero and main narrator, narrating its adventures to a central hero, named Badam, in his wanderings around the world in search of somebody who could be more generous than him. When you start reading this book, you will not be able to stop, because the motivations created by the expectations in your various shenanigans will not allow it. By purchasing this book you will be investing a ridiculous sum in obtaining a product that will be enjoyed for a long time and that will be a great gift for a dear person.
