Kayamanan at Karalitaan
• Nakipanuluyan si Simoun sa bahay ni kabesang Tales na nasa
pagitan ng San Diego at tiyani. Naghihirap noon ang Kabesa ngunit
sinalhan siya ni Simoun ng pagkain at ibang gamit. May dala rin itong
dalawang kaban ng mga alahas, at ipinagmalaki pa ang kanyang
rebolber sa Kabesa.
• Nagdatingan ang mga mamimili ng alahas tulad ni Kapitan Basilio,
ang anak na si Sinang at asawa, at si Hermana Penchang. Ipinakita ni
Simoun sa mga ito ang kanyang dalawang maleta ng mga alahas na
iba’t iba ang uri, ayos at kasaysayan. Habang nakatingin sa mga
alahas, naisip na Kabesang Tales na sa pamamagitan ng mga alahas na
iyon ay tinutudyo ni Simoun ang kanyang kamalasan at kapahamakan
sa bisperas pa naman ng pag-alis niya sa kanyang bahay.
• Sapat na nga naman ang pinakamaliit na piraso ng mga briyanteng
iyon at matutubos na niya si Juli at mapapanatag na ang kanyang
matandang ama.
• Walang nabili ni isa man sa mga luma at makasaysayang alahas ni
Simoun. Ngunit nang ilabas ang mga bagong alahas, namili sina
Sinang at iba pa.

CHAPTER 10: P1
• Simon went to the hours of Kabesang Tales which is in between the
houses of San Diego and Tiyana. At that time Kabesang Tales was
broke but Simon gave him food and clothes. He also brought with
him a chest of jewelries, and he even showed off his revolver gun to
Kabesang Tales.
P2
• The jewelry buyers came namely, Kapitan Basilio, his daughter Sinang
with the husband, and also Hermana Penchang. Simoun showed
them this 2 bags of jewelries of different kinds, style and history.
While looking at the precious jewelry, Kabesang Tales thought that
the jewelry of Simon would be of great help on his demice. The
smallest gem is enough to redeem Juli and his father would be at
peace.
P3
• Nothing was bought on the old and antique jewelry of Simoun. But
when he displayed his new and on trend jewelries, Sinang and other
buy some.
P4
• Simoun says that he is also buying some jewelry and he asked
Kabesang Tales if he has something that he wants to sell. Sinang
presented the necklace, and Simoung asked for a bargain. But when
he learned that it was owned by his ex-girlfriend Maria Clara, who
now when into the monastery, Simoun wants to buy it at a higher
price of P500.00 or anything in exchange of his own jewelry that
Kabesang Tales wants. Kabesang Tales thought about the offer but
Hermana Penchang advised him that the jewelry should not be sold
because Juli prefers to work rather than selling the jewelry of Maria
Clara. Moreovr, Kabesang Tales said that he would first asked
permission from her daughter, and Simoun agreed.
P5
• Kabesang Tales went out to see his daughter, when he saw a priest
and the new farm worker of his land laughing at him. He thought that
he is the one that they are laughing at because he has doubts that his
wife has another man. He then went back to his house and told
Simoun that he was not able to talk to his daughter.
P6
• On the following day, Kabesanng Tales was gone and he brought with
him the revolver gun of Simoun. Inside the gun’s case is his letter to
Simoun and the necklace of Maria Clara. Kabesang Tales asked for
forgiveness for taking the gun as he needs it because he joins the
bandits. He warned Simoun to be careful he might fall into the hands
of the bandits. Simoun was thankful and grateful that at last he found
a man that he needs, a mand who is cruel but with integrity to fulfill
his promise. When he went home to Los Banos, he asked his men
navigate through the lake while he pass through the land to carry his
precious jewelries.
P7
• On that night Kabesang Tales killed 3 people; the priest, the farm
worker and his wife. The killing was brutal: the head was cut and the
mouth is full of soil. On the dead body of the woman, there is a
paper with a written note “Tales” written using a finger dip in blood.
P8
• Tandang Selo was captured by the soldiers. Simoun is happy about it,
but in silence.
