The Golden Touch
There was a king, He was greedy. One day he was worshiping, and the deity appeared, and she said "Hey king, I am pleased with your prayers. Ask for any wish and I shall grant that."
The Greedy king replied, "Thankyou Deity, Grant me a wish that whatever I touch shall turn into gold". with a smile, the deity said, "From now onwards, whatever you will touch, that will turn into gold".
The king return to the palace and was very happy, he wanted to test his new power, so he touches the Piller and the Piller turned into gold, he becomes very happy and tried on many things, all become gold.
But the king was happy for a little time, after some time, he was hungry and touched the food, but that too turned into gold, he tried to drink water that also turned into gold. he us to touch whatever fruits, vegetables that used to turned into gold.
After some time, his daughter came and he hugged her with love, daughter also became gold.
He felt very sorry to his greed. He called deity and said" I don't want the power anymore, i want to be a normal man." The deity took his power. The king happily ruled the kingdom happily with love and justice. He became Nobel king to the people.
