The cunning villagers and the honest man
Once upon a time there was a village named Raipara. The villagers were lazy and stayed away from work. There was a tree that bore sweet but poisonous fruits. They thought of a wicked plan to earn money.
Whenever the travellers visited the village, they convinced them cunningly to try the fruits. They ate them and died. The villagers took the opportunity and robbed them.
Once a group of rich merchants visited the village and heard of the sweet fruits. They wanted to eat them. Just when they were about to pick one, they were stopped by a man.
A honest man came forward and disclosed the truth. He decided to cut the tree once and forever. The villagers tried to stop him but couldn't. They had no option but to work hard.
