Nori: 我独自一人在山上开垦田地，辛勤劳作种植蔬菜和果树。妖怪国王声称拥有这片土地，并要求我交出所有收成。我与他进行了一系列的交易，利用我的智慧和策略，最终不仅保住了我的土地和收成，还与妖怪国王成为了朋友。第一次交易中，我同意给他一半的收成，但巧妙地将我的优质作物种植在自己这一侧，而在他那一侧种植了大量的蒲公英。第二年，我同意给他地上所有的作物，而自己保留地下的根茎类蔬菜。第三年，我种植了小麦和番茄，给他地上部分的作物，而自己保留地下的部分。最终，我用美味的意大利面赢得了妖怪国王的友谊，我们达成了新的协议，他帮助我保护田地，而我则定期请他吃饭。 妖怪国王: 我是这片森林的国王，拥有这片土地和所有农作物。这个小女孩擅自占用我的土地，种植农作物。我与她进行了一系列交易，本想占有她的收成，但她的智慧和策略让我屡屡受挫。最终，我被她用美味的意大利面征服，我们成为了朋友，我开始帮助她保护田地。
