Long time ago in a small village there were camel, sheep, horse and a donkey living in a farm with their master.

The master  was a very kind  and a caring person  but those animals were very lazy and never wanted to work hard.

The master everyday used to transfer goods like sugar ,salt , cotton, rice to the near villages  with help of these animals for a living.

One fine day  master wanted to deliver jute bags filled with salt  .He hopped on the horse and started his  way to the near village ,donkey, Camel followed him with jute bags tied to their backs ,the regular route to the village was  closed so the master thought of taking the river route.

The camel and donkey were too lazy to carry those heavy bags. Camel had an idea as soon as they reached river it started walking by bending it's knees, all the other animals and master were in front so nobody realized what camel was trying to do .As soon as they reached the village and master untied the bags he saw that there was no salt in the Camel's bag. Master was very kind , he thought it was because of the river route. They started their way back home after selling the remaining salt bags.
