João was starving to death when he stole bread to make his family survive. Because of that, he had been condemned to spend four years in a labour camp. His escape attempts extended the time period of twenty years. He was compelled to die of starvation in this place when he met the duke of Leeds who was visiting the labour camp. After negotiations, he managed to fly away with the duke so as to have a better life. Indeed, the duke of Leeds decided to host him. João had a scheme in mind and abused of the duke’s honesty. In fact, he stole his treasure and fled. Nevertheless, his past would catch him, indeed, the police arrested him and he was obliged to return to the labour camp until his death. The police brought back him to the duke. The duke explained the police he offered his treasure to João in order to save him. Finally, João travelled to England and changed his name. Today, he is called John Smart and became the mayor of Brighton. Smart decided to share his fortune with the inhabitants of Brighton. Sometimes smartness can save your life.
