B(2024·南京市建邺区模拟)
Long ago，there was a judge who was famous throughout the land. When two people argued，the judge was always able to find a solution that was fair to both people，whether they were rich or poor.
One day，the judge went to a busy market. Merchants(商人) were selling live chickens，fruits，vegetables，and anything else you could think of. As he walked through the market，the judge saw that a large crowd had gathered outside a shop that sold live chickens. The judge walked near the crowd and asked a woman what was going on.
"A poor farmer was carrying a heavy sack(麻布袋). He accidentally fell down and dropped the sack on a chicken，killing it. The chicken belonged to the rich and greedy(贪婪的) merchant who owns this shop，" the woman said，pointing to the shop.
The judge could hear two men shouting at each other. "It was lucky that I was passing by，" thought the judge. "There is clearly an argument going on，and I am going to solve it."
"Excuse me!" said the judge in a loud voice to the crowd. "Please let me through." ① When people turned and saw the judge，they quickly moved aside to let him pass through.
The two men who were arguing saw the judge coming. ② Then they stopped shouting and bowed to the judge. "Please help us solve our argument，" they said.
"Tell me what happened，" the judge said to the merchant.
"This farmer killed one of my chickens，" said the merchant. "Now he must pay for it!"
The judge asked to see the dead chicken. "It is quite a small young chicken，" said the judge.
"That is true，" said the merchant. "But in another two years that chicken would have grown large and fat. I can get 100 coins for a large，fat chicken. This farmer owes me 100 coins!"
③ The farmer was too afraid to speak. A hundred coins was a huge amount of money for him. Everyone in the town，including the judge，knew the farmer couldn't make enough money to buy clothes for his children.
"I order you to pay this merchant 100 coins，" the judge said to the farmer. ④ The crowd stood there with their mouths open in surprise. How could the farmer ever pay? The greedy merchant was overjoyed.
The judge turned to the merchant. "How much grain does a chicken eat in two years?" asked the judge.
"One large sack of grain，" said the merchant. He exaggerated(夸大) to prove the high price he charged for his dead chicken.
"By killing this chicken，the farmer has saved you a large sack of grain，" said the judge. "I order you to give the sack of grain to the farmer."
The merchant turned pale and hung his head. A large sack of grain was worth much more than 100 coins.
"I forgive this man for killing my chicken，" said the merchant. "I will take no money from him，as long as I do not have to give him a sack of grain."
"As you wish，" said the judge，who was seen to smile as he walked away.
