Explanation:

Once upon a time, there lived a cloth merchant in a village with his wife and two children. They were indeed quite well-off. They had a beautiful hen which laid an egg every day. It was not an ordinary egg, rather, a golden egg. But the man was not satisfied with what he used to get daily. He was a get rich-trice kind of a person.

The man wanted to get all the golden eggs from his hen at one single go. So, one day he thought hard and at last clicked upon a plan. He decided to kill the hen and get all the eggs together.

So, the next day when the hen laid a golden egg, the man caught hold of it, took a sharp knife, chopped off its neck and cut its body open.  There was nothing but blood all around & no trace of any egg at all. He was highly grieved because now he would not get even one single egg.

His life was going on smoothly with one egg a day but now, he himself made his life miserable. The outcome of his greed was that he started becoming poorer & poorer day by day and ultimately became a pauper. How jinxed and how much foolish he was.

Moral: One who desires more, loses all. One should remain satisfied with what one gets.

Answer:

Long ago, in the city of Lima Peru, there lived a baker. He was so stinky that he wouldn’t even give a stale crumb to the birds. His neighbor, on the other hand, was a kind man who was always glad to share the little he had. He cared more about making friends than he did about making money.

The greedy baker was jealous of his cheerful neighbor. He grumbled, “How can he have so little and yet be so happy?” Every morning, the smell of cinnamon buns and sweet rolls drifted out of the bakery. The wind carried the wonderful aroma toward the neighbor’s house. As the poor neighbor sat on his porch eating stale bread, the sweet smell filled the air. He took a deep breath and sighed with happiness. Also, read Going A Traveling.

. As the baker watched, he thought, “The smell from my baked goods makes his stale bread taste delicious. That’s not fair. He should have to pay for such pleasure.” After seeing this happen, again and again, the baker went to his neighbor’s house and handed him a bill. “You want me to pay you? For what? I don’t have enough money to buy anything in your store,” said the kind neighbor.

“That’s right! You pay nothing and yet every day you steal the smell of my baked goods,” yelled the baker. “You mean you want me to pay ten coins as a smelling fee?” laughed the neighbor. “Yes! From now on, I’ll not be cheated and if you don’t pay, I’ll take you to the court,” replied the baker. When word of the baker’s demand spread around the city, everyone laughed at the idea of a stolen smell.

At last, the baker was so angry that he took the case to a respected judge. Everyone was sure that the judge would dismiss the case. After all, how could anyone steal a smell? But to their surprise, the judge said, “It’s my duty to listen to what the baker has to say. I order both the baker and his neighbor to come to court tomorrow.” Also, read The Magic Bean.

The judge sent word to the neighbor that he should bring five gold coins with him. When the kind man heard this, he worried that he would have to hand over the little money he had to the greedy baker. The baker was delighted with the news. He grinned as he thought of his pockets full of his neighbor’s gold coins.

The next day, the baker and the neighbor arrived at the crowded court. Many townspeople were puzzled by the judge’s actions and came to see what the judge would do. They could not believe that he might make the kind man paying for a smell.

When the judge walked in, the courtroom fell silent. First, he listened to the baker’s complaint. Then, he turned to the neighbor and asked, “Is it true that you have enjoyed the smell of this man’s baked goods every day for many years?” “Yes, your honor! I must confess that is true,” admitted the neighbor. The judge thought for a while. Also, read The Cow On The Roof.

Finally, he declared, “A smell has been stolen. Since stealing is a crime, the neighbor must be punished!” The kind man protested, “But your honor…” “Order in the court,” bellowed the judge. He then turned to the neighbor and demanded, “Take the five gold pieces from your pocket!” After the neighbor did so, the judge ordered, “Now, drop the coins from one hand to the other!” The neighbor passed the gold coins back and forth between his hands.

The judge turned to the baker and asked, “Did you hear the jingle of the gold coins?” “Yes, I did!” said the baker with a greedy grin. “Did you like the sound?” asked the judge. “Yes, it is a wonderful sound. It is the payment I believe I deserve,” cried the baker. The baker began to move toward his neighbor to grab the money.

“Wait!” cried the judge. “You have already a fair payment. Your neighbor was guilty of stealing the smell of your baked goods. You have been paid by hearing the sound of his money. This case is dismissed,” said the judge. Laughter filled the courtroom as the people marveled at the judge’s cleverness. The baker hung his head. Even he saw how foolish and greedy he had been. From then on, the judge was known as the wisest of all.treating people fairly and honestly while also taking full responsibility for our actions.
