He was really really surprised He thought to himself Oh! I did not bring 100 spades I just brought only 1 spade How come 1 spade become 100 spades I don't understand Than he thought this must be something to do with the pot So he took away those 100 spades and took up a stone from nearby and put that stone in that pot and then when he looked inside the pot instead of that single stone there were 100 stones in the pot That is when he realized that the pot was magical.
So he brought the pot back home and kept it in seal From that day on he used the pot to satisfy his needs So whenever he wanted a cloth he would put a piece of cloth and he will get enough of cloth for him to make his clothes Whenever he was hungry he would put fruit in that pot and he would get 100 fruits back from the pot That way gradually he started becoming rich But that farmer was very honest He never used the magic of the pot for satisfying his greed He was not a greedy farmer!
