Joseph was riding on his horse, who he had named Blaze, when he saw something flashing in the sun. He stopped Blaze, and walked over to investegate. It turned out to be a shiny, blue rock. Joseph picked it up, and rode to a village nearby where there was a gem expert. When he got to the village, he went to the gem expert, who told him that it was a 1.4 carat sapphire (precious gem), and that it was worth 2,800 dollars (2,097 pounds)! He bought it from Joseph, and then Joseph made Blaze's pen much bigger, made a chicken pen, and then bought ten Ovambo (african chicken breed) hens, one Ovambo rooster, a donkey, a bay mule (a cross between a jack (male donkey) and a mare (female horse) and a bull N'Dama cow (in the last chapter Joseph bought a female one, remember?). With all of those animals, he could make a living, but he prefered to live in the wild, like before.
The End
