Long ago，there was a man called Sessa.He invented a new game to make his friend，the king，happy.He called it "chess".The king loved it and decided to give him anything he liked.However，Sessa told the king he only wanted some grains of wheat（小麥粒）.
"What？!" said the king，greatly surprised.
"Since you enjoy my chessboard so much，just give me a grain of wheat on the first square（方格）of the chessboard，two grains on the second square，four for the third，and so on.Each square doubles the last， "replied Sessa.
"Very well!" the king told his prime minister（大臣）， "give it to him!"
The first day，when the prime minister gave Sessa a grain of wheat，everyone laughed loudly.
The second day，he got two.The ninth day，Sessa received 256 grains.It took Sessa 16 days to get enough wheat to fill a large bag，but only one more day to get two bags.
By the end of the month，wagons（馬車）filled with grains were moving into Sessa's house.The prime minister was very worried and went to see the king.
"Dear king!Sessa has now collected nearly all our wheat!If we continue，our wheat will soon be empty!" he said.
"Impossible!" said the king.But after he checked and double-checked，he found that by the64th square，he should give Sessa a total of 18，446，744，073，709，551，615 grains of wheat!
The king had to call Sessa and take back his words.
Sessa replied， "I am happy with what I have now-I won't ask you for the second half of the chessboard. "
