00:03Once upon a time, a poor salt seller used to carry heavy sacks of salt on his donkey to the
00:10market every day.
00:12One day, while crossing a small bridge, the donkey slipped and the sack fell into the stream.
00:20Some of the salt melted and the load became much lighter.
00:25The donkey felt relaxed and happy.
00:28The next day, the clever donkey pretended to slip again.
00:32And again, the salt melted and the load got light.
00:37But the salt seller understood the trick.
00:40On the third day, he filled the sack with cotton instead of salt.
00:45The donkey, thinking he was smart, slipped into the water once more.
00:50But this time, the cotton soaked up the water and became very heavy.
00:56The donkey struggled to walk, panting and sweating.
01:00The seller laughed and said,
01:03Tricks don't always work, especially dishonest ones.
