083 The Goose with the Golden Eggs


Once upon a time, there lived a farmer in a small town. The farmer worked hard on his farm. One day, a weird-looking goose came to the farm.


 The Goose with the Golden Eggs


Tying up the goose, the farmer was thinking, 'I should cook this goose for breakfast in the morning.' The next day, the farmer approached the goose to cook it.


However, the farmer was startled. The goose had laid a golden egg. "How did the goose that lays golden eggs come to me?" The farmer was so happy that he danced cheerfully.


The farmer was able to get a golden egg every morning. In the market, everybody loved to buy the golden eggs. Getting weary of working, the farmer did not want to farm.


'Perhaps, there must be an enormous amount of gold in that goose's stomach. Although it looks like an ordinary goose, it lays golden eggs.' The farmer was determined 1 to open the goose's stomach. He wanted to be rich instantly rather than gradually.


The farmer cut the goose's stomach open with scissors. But, he found nothing but just what any other goose would have. "Why! How could this be?" regretted the farmer, but it was no use. The goose was already dead.
