Fortunately, the family had very young children and went to bed early.
Ben used his Shadow Leap spell to sneak into the backyard of the house.
Before starting to dig, Ben made sure everything was in order.
He quickly reached the only tree in the backyard, but he wasn't sure where to dig.
The old man hadn't been specific about the location, only mentioning that it was buried under the tree.
So, Ben had no choice but to start digging. After digging about a meter deep and finding nothing, he moved to another spot under the tree.
In the second spot, he also found nothing, but fortunately, on his third attempt, he felt the shovel hit something.
Digging deeper, he pulled out what looked like an old briefcase.
When he opened it, he found a large amount of money wrapped in plastic to protect it from water and humidity.
"Wow, old man! You call this a little money?" Ben was amazed by the amount of cash in the briefcase.
There was at least a million!
