The Man who Loved Money

The story comes from a collection of Chinese fables and folktales by Mary Hayes Davis and Chow-Leung, but I have not been able to find out the name of the illustrator.

The story is just 300 words long, so it will take only a minute or two to read, and just a few minutes to read out loud.
