Fisherman took the pearl from his wife and reached to the locality goldsmith.

Assalam o Alaikum

Ohhhhhh It is very noble.

I have no strength to purchase such a precious thing.

Although if I sell my home, shop and everything nevertheless I can’t pay you the amount of this pearl

You can do one thing go the biggest goldsmith in the city.

May be he could pay you its price.

Fisherman reached to the biggest and richest goldsmith of the city.

And told him whole story

Oh God…Swear by Almighty God! Brother, I am not able to buy it.

But I have a solution about it you should go to the governor of city.

He will surely be able to purchase such this type of pearl.

Thank you for your help, I am going to meet with the Governor of City.

Now at the door of City’s Governor

Our fisher friend is staying here with his precious goods and waiting for the permission to get entry in the Palace.

Now in front of the City’s Governor in Palace

Sir this is my entire story and here it is that pearl which I got from stomach of fish.

Oh God … what an incomparable thing you found I just wished and had a desire to see such a thing.

But how I decide its price???

I have a solution, go in my treasury.

You will be allowed to spend six hours there.

Take amount and things how much you can so may be like this some price of this precious pearl will be paid by me.

Sir six hours??  Two hours will be enough for me.

No, you will have six hours and you will be allowed to take anything from my treasury what you want.

Our fisher friend entered in the Governor’s treasury and surprised to see a very big grand hall decently distributed in three parts.

One part was fulfilled by diamonds, jewelry and gold.

Second part was decorated with a kind of soft comfortable, delightful brisk velvet’s beds.

And the last part was covered by every kind of foods such like after look at once anyone can feel water in mouth.

Fisherman said to his own self

Six hours?????

Like me for a poor fisherman it is too much.

What will I do at last in these six hours?????

Well… why not I should take start from foods???

I have never seen such these types of foods. Today I will eat a lot and make my tummy full.

And like this I will also get the energy which will be helpful for me to collect and gather diamonds and jewelries.

Then our fisher friend entered in the third part of treasury and he spent two hours there from the given six hours by Governor.

In just eating, eating and eating

After that he got up to go towards the part where diamonds and jewelries were.

But he looked at the velvet’s bed and he said to his own self.

Today I fulfilled my stomach completely.

What will be wrong if I will do some rest???  Like this I will have fun when I will collect diamonds and other things.

I will not get a chance to sleep on such these types of velvet’s bed next time so why should I miss it???

Then he putted his head on the bed and gradually went in the arms of slumber.

Awake up awake up fool fisherman.

Your time has been finished.

Ohhhh …. How???

Yeah you heard correct get out from here.

Be kind with me please I didn’t get enough time Please give me some more time.

You have spent six hours in this treasury and now you want to wake up from your negligence.

Do you want to collect more???

You have been given a long time for collecting all this finance.

So that when you go out from here so you could eat these types of foods rather much better than it.

And could make these types of bed rather much comfortable than it.

But you became like a fool and fell in carelessness.

You thought this well is entire universe where u lived.

Didn’t think to go out and see the comprehensive of ocean.
