The Farmer, the Tortoise, and the Dog
How sensible is the Tortoise ?

Sometime in the distant past, there was a starvation in the place that is known for the creatures in light of the fact that the dry season had expanded more than expected. There was no downpour in the land and each creature was looking rather slim and unfortunate on the grounds that extremely restricted food was accessible. Nonetheless, the turtle saw that his companion, the canine was looking extremely new and sound. He considered what the mystery of the canine's prosperity was and settled to find out.
The following day, the turtle chose to pay his companion, the canine a visit.
On getting to his home, the turtle said, "My old buddy, you realize we have been companions for quite a while, kindly let me know the mystery of your blushing cheeks and your protruding stomach, in spite of the starvation all through the land. I want to know with the goal that I don't pass on from hunger."
The canine answered, "There is no confidential to it my old buddy, all my persistent effort has paid off."
The turtle was not tricked by the canine's answer and he chose to press further. He said," My companion, I realize that you have figured out how to beat this starvation, kindly tell me, I will stay discreet." The canine anyway rejected that any confidential behind his all around was being. Thus, the turtle said thanks to him and left, however he was unable to forget about the issue so he concocted an arrangement.
The following day, he chose to shadow the canine's developments. He took cover behind a tree and noticed the canine venture out from home promptly in the first part of the day with a bin. He followed him the whole way to the adjoining town, ensuring he was at some protected distance behind the canine constantly.
The canine advanced toward a homestead and, in the wake of glancing around to ensure that nobody was watching, got collecting sweet potato going the ranch into his container. The turtle then, at that point, reported his presence to the canine. The canine was stunned that his companion would go to that degree to figure out his mysterious, however there was nothing he could do. He chose to let the turtle in on his awful demonstration of taking from another person's homestead. So off they went on the following day, and the following, and the following … .
Each time they went, the turtle took somewhat more than he did the earlier day. It then happened to the canine that the more sweet potatoes the turtle added every day, the more it took them to get back home, so he chose to alert him. "My old buddy turtle, the amount of sweet potato you bring back home every day is turning out to be excessively. Recently, we left for home at 5.45pm. The rancher might get us and afterward that will destroy us." The turtle answered casually, "Don't stress my companion; I'm putting away sufficient sweet potato at home for the stormy day. The rancher won't ever get us."
"I don't figure you ought to be ravenous; you could cause us problems on the off chance that we gather a lot of sweet potato than we can convey effectively to the point of circumventing being gotten by the rancher," said the canine worriedly.
So the following day, at 5.30 brief, the canine declared that he was leaving for home. Be that as it may, the turtle argued for an additional opportunity to reap sweet potato. Soon after, the canine put his bushel on his head and began heading home. The turtle saw this and yelled after the canine.
"Canine, hang tight for me, hang tight for me, I can't convey my bin alone, it's excessively weighty, kindly assistance me,"
The canine anyway wouldn't tune in and made flurry to stay away from the rancher. The turtle argued for a really long time, yet the canine by then had a distant memory. The rancher showed up on his homestead and tracked down the turtle with a basketful of his sweet potato. He gave him over to the lord's men and the turtle was dealt with. At the point when the canine saw what had befallen his companion turtle, he was apprehensive, he then, at that point, acknowledged how unreasonable his activities towards the rancher had been. From that point on, he concluded that he could never take anything that didn't have a place with him so he wouldn't find himself mixed up with inconvenience like the turtle.
