Once upon a time in Warsaw there lived a young shoemaker Lucek. He didn’t earn much, so he was very poor. Once he heard two old foremen talking about a gold duck that was supposed to live in the cellars of the Ostrogskis’ Castle at Tamka Street. “If you meet her, she can make you rich”, one of them said. “Many men tried but they all got lost in the dungeons and were never seen again”, said the other. Hearing those words, Lucek immediately headed for the Castle. He quickly found the entrance to the dark dungeons. He was walking along the labyrinth of corridors and thought he’d got lost, but at the very moment the gold duck appeared swimming on a pond and she said “Hello Lucek! I’m going to make you rich, but, remember, you must not share your wealth with anyone. Here is the sack with coins of gold. Spend them all within one day.” Lucek grabbed the money and quickly left the dungeons. The next day he bought himself the most expensive clothes in town bought a beautiful Palace  and furnished it with modern furniture . He bought a stallion on which he rode across the city to show off his wealth. He went to the most luxurious restaurant and ate the biggest meal ever. In the evening he went to the theatre , after it he went to the spa salon and received all the suggested services . He wanted to marry one beautiful woman and live with her happily.
He tried really hard to spend all the money but just before midnight there was still one gold penny left in his pocket. On his way home he saw a beggar asking for a donation. The boy gave him his last penny and suddenly the gold duck appeared in the form of a beautiful lady. “You have not followed my rules so you will be poor forever. If you don't break your word , I shall be your wife !” Lucek answered her, “Being rich doesn’t make you happy if you can’t share your wealth with others.” Hearing these words , The gold duck thought that the boy wasn't greedy as previous men , that he was kind and generous . She changed into a beautiful lady forever and became the wife of the boy. They lived happily and always were generous and helped people who were in need and also always shared everything with their friends.
