once upon a time in a small village in
India there lived a poor boy by the name
of Shiro Shiro had lost his mother in a
devastating flood and he lived with his
father who was a poor peasant but there
is something you need to know about
young Shiro he was smart and like they
say smart people come up with smart
solutions one day the poor peasant gave
little money to Shiro and asked him to
go to the market and do some trade and
that's what Shiro did he thought of a
great idea walking into a town market he
hired the most affordable place he could
and opened a store he spent the
remaining of his money on paper ink and
a pen and over his store put a sign
saying wisdoms Souls here all around him
in the busy marketplace merchants owned
large attractive stores selling things
that people needed like cloth fruits and
vegetables.
Shiro stood outside his little store all
day calling out wisdoms sold here come
one come all affordable price people
passing his store who had come to buy
supplies for their homes and Families
thought he was odd but amusing - OH
seems like you have ample wisdom to sell
why don't you use some to help yourself.
o wise one can you make my wife stop
telling me what to do but Shiro was
patient and took it all with a smile one
day a merchant son sundar was walking
through the marketplace and heard him
shouting wisdom get it here
good prices wisdom now that's something.
I have never eaten Hey what is it that
you're selling and what is the price for
vessel I don't sell wisdom buy quantity
I sell it buy quality oh all right
I'd like poins worth of wisdom please.
Shira smiled and put the coin in his
pocket then he took out a piece of paper
and taking a deep breath wrote something
when he had finished he folded the paper
waved his hand over at three times stood
up and gave it to the merchants son on
the paper where the words do not stand
and watch two people quarreling keep
this with you always.
sundar was very excited he quickly went
home and ran into the house shouting
father you won't believe what happened
to me today come quick and see what I've
bought when his father read the paper he
was furious and screamed at his son who
is the person who sold you this picked
me to him at once.
sundar told him about the boy and his
little storm the father immediately went
to the store when Sundar's father
reached the store he saw Shiro and
screamed you thief me yes you you are
the thief who sold this piece of
nonsense to my son I know he's a fool
but you're a thief return the coin he
paid or I'll call the police.
ah if you don't like my product you can
return it give me back my product and
I'll return your money I've just
returned your goods sir you have not
returned my product you've only returned
the piece of paper if you want your
money you must return my wisdom you must
sign an agreement saying that your son
will
never use my advice that he will always
stand and watch two people fighting what
you must be joking
by then the crowd had gathered around to
watch the argument and they agreed with
Shiro he's right he has only returned
the paper not the idea yes you're just
trying to cheat the poll seller taking
his advice and not giving it back now.
okay I will sign the document and when
the document was signed Shiro returned
the cost the merchant was happy that he
had saved his money now it so happened
that the king of the region King Dara
had a sister-in-law called princess Tara
who had come to visit the royal palace
and it was well known that princess Tara
and King Dara's real sister princess
Lina could not bear each other they were
extremely jealous of each other and
would argue about almost everything one
day each of the princesses sent their
maids to the marketplace and call it the
universe's amazing sense of humor
both the maids ended up going to the
same store and at the same time excuse
me but I was just going to buy that ah
you're a liar.
I got it first you got it first because
you pushed in front of me and punched on
it
excuse me I didn't push in front of you
you did
my hand was just reaching out to pick it
up and you rushed before I could pick it
why didn't you dead I didn't dead not
and soon their voices got louder and
louder.
sundar who happened to be near the store
at that time saw it all happened in
front of him and did not leave as his
father had instructed him to
remember we've signed a document and
must always watch people argue if you
are nearby hey you saw what she did
right she pushed me no she is lying I
got here first
you saw that you're my witness nor he is
my witness huh
we will see about that and saying that
she left from the store oh you're so
well and so when the two maids returned
to the palace they told their princesses
all about the argument the princesses
were naturally very angry and decided to
complain to the king the maids had also
told their princesses about the witness
who had seen everything
each princess ordered the merchants son
sundar to be her maids witness or have
him put behind the bars when King Dhara
heard about it he sent a messenger to
the merchants house with the commands of
the princesses sundar and his father
were very worried when they received the
commands we need to see the boy who
sells wisdom immediately and ask him
what to do they rushed to the little
store and told Shiro about the whole
story hmm this is a tricky situation I
can help you but it will cost fifty gold
coins the merchants immediately paid the
amount when they call you to the palace
pretend to be crazy and pretend that you
are a madmam
you can keep blabbering silly things and
that is exactly what sundar did the next
day when King Dhara called the merchants
son to the palace as a witness he
behaved as Shiro had instructed him to
eventually the king lost patience and
thinking that sundar was a madman
ordered him out of the palace son was
delighted with this success and told
everyone about Shiro's great wisdom soon
he became quite popular and respected in
the marketplace but the merchant was
unhappy that his son would now have to
pretend to be a madman for the rest of
his life for the king would find out and
punish him so the merchant and his son
went back to Shiro for more wisdom for
another 50 coins.
Shiro advised them to go back to the
king at a carefully chosen time and tell
him the whole story if you approach him
at the right time when he's relaxed and
in a good mood he'll think it's funny
and forgive you but make sure he is in a
merry mood King Dhara loved beautiful
evenings everyone was aware of it and so
sundar followed his advice he went to
the palace on a beautiful warm evening
as the Sun was setting.
This is it this is my moment
the guards presented him to King Daraa
and just as he thought the ruler was in
a very good mood haven't I seen you
before
go well your majesty and then he went on
to tell him the whole story and begged
for the Kings forgiveness for doing such
a silly thing I forgive you
don't worry we all make mistakes
sometimes when sundar had left the
palace King Dhara sat alone thinking
about the story he was very curious
about this man who sold wisdom so he
sent His Messenger and asked him if he
had any more wisdom to sell yes sir
I have plenty of wisdom especially to a
king but each advice will cost you
100,000 gold coins King Dhara didn't
hesitate he paid him 100,000 gold coins
at once.
Shiro as usual thought and then looking
very carefully at the Kings face took a
deep breath and wrote on a piece of the
King's special paper after writing he
folded the piece of paper waved his hand
over three times and gave it to the King
on the piece of paper King Dhara read
the words always think a lot before
acting Wow that is a very wise advice
the king was astonished by those words
and ordered his servants to paint them
all over the palace
sheera bowed down and then left some
months later King Dhara became very sick
he didn't realize that one of his
ministers was planning to dethrone him
by making him severely sick as part of
his plan he paid the royal doctor to put
poison into his medicine
seeing the shining pearls and gold coins
the doctor smiled and agreed that night
when King Dhara was taking his medicine
he lifted his golden cup up to his lips
and while he was about to drink the
poison the King lifted his eyes and saw
the wisdom on the wall always think a
lot before acting without suspecting
anything he thought about the words
lowered his cup to keep it on the desk
to think about drinking it the doctor
who was standing there watching this
started panicking he trembled in fear
assuming that his King had guessed that
his medicine was spiked he immediately
started crying forgive me
King dar was taken aback and the doctor
went on to tell him about the minister
and his plans he immediately called his
guards and he had the doctor and the
minister locked up the next day when the
king woke up he was feeling surprisingly
well what a beautiful morning to wake up
to if it weren't for the man who sells
wisdom I wouldn't be standing here
grateful he had his guards bring Shiro
into his room he thanked him for saving
his life and made him his new minister
and arranged for him to live in the
palace a fine apartment and beautiful
clothes were prepared for him and Shiro
lived happily in the palace as a wealthy
man of honor and remained king Dara's
most trusted advisor for the rest of his
life but he still continued giving his
wisdom to the common people and would
not charge any money from them and would
always tell them remember knowledge is
knowing what to say wisdom is knowing
when to say it you.
Thank you❤️❤️
