In a prosperous village along the Red River, there lived a wealthy merchant named Master Duc who had three sons. As he grew old and felt his strength declining, Master Duc decided it was time to choose which of his sons would inherit his business and continue the family legacy.
The eldest son, Minh, was strong and ambitious, known throughout the village for his success in trading precious stones and silk. The middle son, Tai, was clever and well-educated, having studied literature and mathematics with the finest teachers. The youngest son, Nghia, was gentle and thoughtful, spending his time helping neighbors and caring for the family’s ancestral shrine.
