A man works in a car repair shop. The shop is in Georgia, US. The man leaves his job. His boss does not pay him the last wages.
The man’s boss does not speak to the man. He must pay him 915 dollars. He does not want to do it. The man asks officials for help.
The man and his girlfriend are leaving their house one day. They see something on the ground in front of the house. It is money. It is a lot of coins. There are about 90,000 coins. There is a message from the man’s boss.
A lot of oil is on the money. The man must clean the money. He cleans the money every night. He can clean several hundred coins in 90 minutes. He can use only clean money in shops.
Difficult words: car repair shop (a place where you take your car when it breaks and somebody repairs it), wages (money which you get for work), coin (a small piece of metal which people use as money).
