The Robber and Carpenter Story!!
A carpenter lived in a village. He was very strong in body and mind. One day he was called by a rich man from a nearby village to fit furniture.
When the work there was over, it was evening while returning, so he pressed a bundle of money he got from the work and covered himself with a blanket to avoid the cold.
He quietly left for home through the deserted road. After going some distance, he was suddenly stopped by a robber. The dacoit was physically weaker than the carpenter but his weakness was covered by his gun.
Now when the carpenter saw him in front, the robber said- 'Give me whatever you have, otherwise I will shoot you.' Hearing this, the carpenter handed over the bundle to the robber and said - 'Okay, you keep this money, but what will I tell my wife after reaching home. She would think that I must have wasted the money in gambling. You do one thing, make a hole in my hat with your gunshot so that my wife will be convinced of the robbery.'
The robber proudly shot a hole in the cap by firing a gun. Now when the robber started leaving, the carpenter said - 'Do one more thing, so that the wife will be convinced that the gang of robbers together looted. Otherwise my wife will consider me a coward. Make four-five holes in this blanket also.' The robber happily made holes in the blanket by firing bullets.
After this, the carpenter also removed his coat and said- 'Make a hole or two in it too so that all the villagers will be convinced that I had struggled a lot.'
On this the robber said - 'Stop now. The bullets in this gun are also over.
On hearing this, the carpenter went ahead and caught the robber and said - 'This is what I wanted. Your only strength was this gun. Now this too is empty. Now no force of yours can work on me. Quietly give me back my bundle or else...
On hearing this, the robber lost his whistle and immediately returned the bundle to the carpenter and ran away from there after saving his life.
Today the carpenter's strength came in handy when he used his intelligence in the right way.
Education:-
You should use your intelligence more in difficult situations, only then you can easily get out of trouble..!!
