He weaves beautiful carpets, but he weaves very slowly, only one carpet a year, so he earns very little money.
One day, Sagarra Datta was about to finish knitting the most beautiful carpet when his loom broke down.
He is a poor man. He had no time to complain, so he picked up an axe and went to find strong trees to build a new loom.
He looked at many trees and finally chose a tall boxwood by the sea.
"I just need such a tree!" Sagarra Datta said happily.
But Sagarra da ta just raised his axe and suddenly heard someone talking:
"Have pity on this tree, my friend!"
"Who is this talking to me?" Sagarra Datta felt very strange.
"It's me, the forest demon. Boxwood belongs to my family, why do you want to cut it? "
Sagarra Datta was surprised, but he thought of his broken loom and said to the forest demon:
"If I can't find a good tree to build a loom, I can't finish weaving that carpet and I can't sell it, so my family will go hungry. You move to another place and let me cut down this boxwood. "
"no! Don't touch this tree! I am very comfortable here! The sea breeze has been blowing here, and I am cool even on a hot day. You might as well tell me what you need, and I will definitely meet your requirements! "
Lin Yao said.
Sagarra Datta thought about it and agreed, but he said he would go back and discuss it with his wife first.
On the way, Sagarra Datta met a familiar barber. The barber asked him:
"Friend, where are you going in such a hurry?"
"alas! Please don't waste my time! I conquered Lin Yao, and now I am anxious to go home and discuss with my wife and ask her what she wants. "
"ah! If there is such a thing, then ask him to give you a kingdom! You are the emperor and I am your prime minister. We should enjoy the happiness in this world. "
"Maybe you are right," replied the Weaver Girl, "but I still have to discuss it with my wife first."
"My friend, look at you! What's wrong with discussing with a woman? "
"Maybe you are right, but I still want to discuss it with her."
Sagarra da ta said, and hurried home. He asked his wife:
"Dear, what do we want from the forest demon? My barber friend told me that I want a kingdom. "
"Your barber is such a fool! Don't listen to him! Don't you know how worried it is to be an emperor one day? You know, around the emperor, except the flatterers, they are all traitors. This kind of life is not fun at all! "
"My wife, you are right. So, what do I want from him? "
"What do you like best? What do you like better than me? Do you weave your pattern on the carpet? "
"Yes, yes, dear, you are right!"
"Everyone praises your work and is willing to buy the carpet you knitted. But you can only knit one carpet at most a year. That's why we are so poor and ask the forest monster for a loom! This loom works like this: you can weave as much as you want in a day, and the patterns you weave are the most beautiful. "
Sagarra Datta agreed with his wife and walked to the coast where the forest demon lived.
But the more he walked forward, the more sad he felt. He thought:
"If Lin Yao really gave me such a wonderful loom, what's good for me? In the future, carpets will be woven by looms, and patterns will be thought by looms. What should I do? Do I just sell carpets and earn some money a day? " Thought of here, he felt very sad, so when he went to the seaside, he said to the forest demon:
"I want nothing! Since you won't let me cut down this tree, you can help me repair the old loom. "
"All right. I promise your request. " The forest demon replied.
As soon as Sagarra Datta got home, he ran to see his loom. The loom has been completely repaired.
Sagarra Datta sat down to knit a carpet and forgot everything in the world. He knitted day and night until he finished knitting the carpet. He didn't hear his wife coming, nor did he see the barber walk into his house.
Sakala da Tabu finished weaving, looked at his new carpet for a long time, and suddenly burst out laughing and cheering:
"Who can understand how happy I am now! I could have been an emperor-then I would have a lot of money, many slaves and flatterers, but no sincere friends. Lin Yao can also make me a rich man, but at that time I must be on tenterhooks all day, for fear that my money will be gone. But when I saw the beautiful patterns on my carpet and heard everyone praised my products, I was very happy. Who can compare with my happiness! There are two proverbs that are well said:
