In the past, a remote village in central China was inhabited mainly by farmers. One day, a poor farmer lost all his livestock to a flood. He prayed hard to God for help. He did not want to die of starvation.
A few days later, an elderly man, with a long gray beard, pitied him. He gave him a goose and said, "I do not have any expensive things to give you I hope this goose will help you."
A week later, the farmer was surprised to find eggs in his yard. These were not ordinary eggs. There were golden eggs. He was suddenly overcome with joy.
After that, his life had risen rapidly, therefore the farmer forgot his initial difficulties. He became lazy, arrogant, ad extravagant. Oddly enough, the goose only laid golden eggs every six months. The greedy farmer lost his patience and slaughtered his gose by thinking there must be more golden eggs in his stomach. Though he deeply regretted his stupidity, it was too late.
