Kredenc didn't sell the water or lock his gate. Instead, he pulled up bucket after bucket, his massive arms never tiring. He filled every jug, pot, and trough brought to him. He even made sure the stray dogs and the thirsty birds had their share in the stone basin at the base. Kredenc - Kis kГєt kerekes kГєt
