How do I find a ring with a primary ideal having n elements?

I would like to know how can I find a ring with (at least) a primary ideal which has n elements (not generators, but elements) for a given n ?

Thank you.

Let $R$ be any ring with $n$ elements and let $S$ be any domain. Then $R\times 0$ is an ideal in the ring $R\times S$ which has $n$ elements, and it is prime since the quotient $R\times S/R\times 0\cong S$ is a domain.
