Accordingly, it occurred to him to put the money in the gas oven as he thought that his wife would not use it.
The wind, however, went against the wish of the ships when the young man’s wife turned the gas oven on to heat the food without knowing that all the money her husband had was inside.
As soon as he knew what his wife did, the unfortunate young man tried to save as much money as he could, explaining that the money had to do with his business with his partners. Unfortunately, most of the money was gutted by the fire.
The young man tried to exchange the burned money from the Central Bank, but the latter said that only the banknotes that showed serial number could be exchanged.
Unfortunately, serial numbers were shown in 40,000 pounds only.
