A rustic living on a mountain had a statue. He left it casually in front of his house. One day a man from the town passed by a saw the statue. He inquired whether it was for sale. The mountain man replied,
'Who will buy this ugly statue?'
Taking out a silver coin from his pocket, the city man said: 'Are you ready to part with your statue for this coin?' The mountain man gladly agreed and the deal was done. The city man took the statue with him, carrying it on elephant.
After a few months the mountain man happened to go to the town. He saw a long queue in front of a shop.
He heard a man announcing: 'Come and see the most beautiful statue in the world. It costs only two silver coins.'
Our friends from the mountain paid two silver coins to see the statue he had sold for on silver coin! .........
