Honesty will always have a great influence.

                             

Once upon a time great Maratha leader went to wage war on a neighbouring country with an army. After seeing the victory in the war, he returned to his native country with great joy. He needed to travel a few more days to reach his capital. He and his soldiers were very tired from the battle and the long journey. While they were travelling, they came across a village nearby and camped there. 

He saw that the soldiers were hungry and called one of the leaders of the soldiers to bring the food we needed in this town! Also, take some players with you! He ordered that. The leader of those soldiers left there with 50 soldiers.

  As the warrior leader was walking he saw a ploughman, looking at him the warrior leader said, "Show us the most fertile land in this town." As soon as the ploughman saw the army, he fell, sir! I will show you, come with me, he said. In the garden he showed, bananas and coconuts hung on one side. Fruits and sugarcane were growing well.

Joyfully, the brave leader eagerly ordered the soldiers to go to this garden and bring food as much as they wanted. The soldiers too were very hungry and entered the garden with great fanfare. But the ploughman who saw this, sir, don't want it! Don't! "You must not go there is a garden more beautiful than this where you can pick all the fruits and sugarcane, so come with me and I will show you that garden," said the leader of the warriors.

Along with the ploughman, the soldier leader and the soldiers walked a long distance. After that, the farmer showed a garden and said take whatever you want in this garden. Seeing that garden, the warrior leader also got angry. O ploughman, why have you brought us to this far-off garden! He said that the garden you showed earlier was very fertile, but this one seems to be a little less productive.

 That plowman sir! The first thing I showed was the neighbour's garden, and if you took all the food from it, the farmer would suffer a great loss, and I would be responsible for it. But this garden belongs to me where you can take food as you wish.

  The ploughman's speech moved the warrior leader's soul. The valiant leader went back with the army without taking anything from that garden and told the commander what had happened. Everyone thought that we did not have the honesty of a farmer. Players! The commander ordered that whatever food items were taken in this town, be given them a tribute. Everyone bought food items by giving suitable gold coins.

The honesty of one ploughman has made a great multitude into honest men so that there can be no doubt that honesty will always have the support and influence of all.
