उत्तर
Abdul, the Achiever
Once upon a time during the reign of Emperor Akbar, there lived a very humble school teacher. He had an equally humble and down to earth son named Abdul. Abdul dreamt of becoming a scholar. His father could not fund him for the books because they were very costly. His father tried to borrow books from the school library but was unsuccessful.
Abdul was disheartened. He hit upon a brilliant idea to solve his problem. He decided to work for the rich, instead of taking money for services, he requested them to allow him to read the books in their stores.
Abdul read and read and became a learned scholar that too one in a million. Now that he had completed his education he aspired to work in the Emperor's office. The Emperor heard of him and was ready to appoint him. He was first put in charge of the Murgikhana. Abdul was disappointed at first but then decided to put in his best. His efforts paid him well. The hens were healthier than before.
The Emperor was surprised that Abdul had not used any money from the treasury. The Emperor was worried that the hens had died but Abdul told the Emperor that all the hens were in the pink of health because he was feeding them with the left-overs from the Emperor's kitchen, which was free of cost and the hens enjoyed and that was the secret of their health.
The Emperor was happy and put him in charge of the library. Abdul was unhappy. He aspired to be a courtier. He took his job too as a challenge and started making changes in the library.
A year later when the Emperor entered the library he was shocked to see that all the books had a very expensive covering. He thought that this would have cost a fortune. Abdul clarified the Emperor's doubt and told him that it has cost nothing because he used the rich, discarded fabrics of the bags in which requests were sent to the Emperor. Abdul said that he had asked the royal tailors to stitch the jackets and covers for the books. The Emperor was so impressed that he immediately appointed Abdul his courtier.
Moral: Waste not, want not.
