Robin and the butchers had a very good time at the feast. They all talked and laughed and ate lots of meat and bread. The Sheriff did not recognize Robin and he spoke to him for a very long time.
Robin: Aye, sir. I do. My brothers and I have five hundred and ten animals. We are trying to sell them... Would you like to buy them, sir? The price is three hundred gold coins.
Sheriff: I heard that your prices are very low. You must be a very rich man. Do you have a lot of cattle?
Sheriff: What? Three hundred gold coins...? Ok, I'll buy them.

One day, Robin was walking in the forest when he saw a butcher who was on his way to the market with a cart full of meat. He stopped the butcher and asked him how much his car of meat cost. The butcher asked for ten gold coins. Robin paid him twenty gold coins and the butcher was very pleased.
Robin: Nay, sir. I think you should come see the cattle tomorrow morning yourself.
Sheriff: I'll give you the money now. Bring me the cattle tomorrow.
Sheriff: All right. You can sleep here tonight. We will leave early in the morning.
Now the Sheriff liked the money more than any other man in England. He knew that five hundred and ten heads of cattle were worth much more than three hundred gold coins. The Sheriff thought that Robin was a fool.

Robin, dressed as a butcher, took the cart full of meat to the butchers' square at the Nottingham Town market. Robin was friendly and cheerful and he was much better salesman than the other butchers. His meat was also cheaper than the others butchers' meat because he wanted poor people to buy it. Robin sold all his meat quickly, Then, one of the butchers walked up to him.
