I took a few of my friends into the secret, however, and they suggested that we should quietly and secretly work our own little deposit and that in this way we should earn the money which would enable us to buy the neighbouring fields.
Confié el secreto a unos pocos amigos y éstos propusieron explotar, sin que nadie se enterara, nuestro pequeño yacimiento, y de ese modo reunir el dinero que nos permitiría comprar los campos vecinos.
