The Farmer and The Hidden Treasure

Once a rich farmer lived in a village. He was very old. He had four sons. All of them were idlers. They wasted his money and did not work. The farmer was eager to show them the right path.

One day, the farmer fell ill. His condition took a turn for the worse. Feeling that his end was near, he called his sons to his bedside. He told them that he was about to die. He had a great treasure hidden in the field. But he did not know the exact place. He asked them to dig the field deep to take out the treasure after his death

The old farmer died. The sons went to the field to dig out the treasure as soon as the funeral rites were over. They dug up the entire field but there was no trace of any treasure. They became very sad and cursed their dead father.

A wise man advised them to sow wheat in the field. They did so. That year they reaped a rich harvest. Thus they realized that hard work was the key to the treasure. From that day, they gave up their idleness and became hardworking farmers. They prepared and lived a happy life.

Moral: No pains, no gains.
