Last year Harry was on holiday in Cornwall. He visited his uncle, Ben, in a small fishing village.
One evening Harry and his uncle sat in the garden and Ben told stories about the time when he was a captain of a ship.
„It was a hard life for the men on the ships. The coast was wild and the rocks were very dangerous. Ships often hit the rocks and pirates stole everything from the ships. There are also a lot of caves here. Sometimes you can find what the pirates left there,“ said Ben.
„Pirates? You mean real pirates lived here and left their treasure boxes in these caves? Do you think I can find some treasure?“ asked Harry.
„Oh yes, it can happen. Last year a tourist found an old golden ring and gave it to our museum,“ answered Ben.
