Matti was thinking how to cheat the troll so that he could get a big mount of silver coins.

Matti met the troll in the forest. Matti brought forward that they will have rowing competition over the lake. The troll agreed.

Matti was again very crafty. He dropped the anchor of the boat of the troll down to the bottom.

When they were at the lakeside, they both went in their boats. They started to row very hard. When Matti was in a half way the troll was still near the lakeside.

The troll was too tired continue the rowing.

The troll backed down over the rowing and Matti got a big mount of silver coins.
