Onions and Garlic

A young man named Haskell was trying to prove that he could be a successful merchant. His father sent him out in the world with nothing but onions, a vegetable that was worth very little. After a shipwreck, Haskell found a beach that was covered with diamonds. He went to a nearby restaurant for a hot meal and offered some diamonds to the restaurant owner. But to his surprise, the restaurant owner began to laugh.
