Now we must find a name for this young guy. The old man said, "Up to now, we have called you Bon. This is a common word for a boy around here. But now you are so big and I will call you Oso which means a bear." The old man's wife gave Oso a jacket of bear skin and a bag with some food which he liked very much. She missed him but believed in his success as merchant.
On the way to the port, Oso found a lean young man sitting along the road. "Hey, would you be so nice enough to give me some food? I am so hungry and have no power to stand up." "Oh? what kind of gift can you give me in return?" "Long lasting friendship and ｌoyalty, I promise." "OK. I am on the way to the port to be a sailor. Will you come with me?"
Thus Oso got a friend and talked with him walking together. The lean man was named Hunt and from a poor village. The villagers and his family could not pay tax and ran away from home where no food remained at all.
