"How are you Ants?" Asked the King.
"Servant is fine, king." Ants are very happy.
"Where have you gone?"
"Servant from the morning went to some places, but have not get your food."
"So you have not eaten yet?"
"That's right." The king was pensive for a moment. Then said.
"Hi Ants. How much food do you need for a year? "
"Just a piece of bread," the Ant replied.
"Then will you give me a loaf of bread for your life a year?"
"I am very glad of you."
"Then, let me bring you back to the palace," said the King.
Ants are very happy to have the king's gift of food. He is not hard to find food in a year. And of course the gift giving from the King is better and sweet. "Now you go into the tube that I have filled with bread," the king ordered.
"Thank you. I'll come in. "
"A year to come this new tube will I open," said the King again.
"I am very glad of you."
Tubes containing bread and Ants were immediately closed tightly by the King. The lid of the tube is made of special material, so the air keeps inside the tube. The tube is stored in a special place inside the palace. The following days the King continued to lead his people. Various affairs he solved wisely. Finally, after a year, the King remembers his promise to the Ant. Slowly the King opened the lid of the ant container. When the lid of the tube was open, the Ant had just enjoyed the King's gift of bread a year ago.
"How are you Ants?" Asked the King when matanta saw Ants in the tube.
"My servant is fine."
"Have not you been sick in a year in this tube?"
"No, you have not been sick for a year."
Then the King pensive for a moment while looking at the remains of the ant's bread.
"Why is not my bread giving you to spend, and in a year you just need a piece of bread?" Asked the King. "You see, that bread is left half servant. For worshipers worried lest, the king forgot to open it, of course I can still eat bread another year. But fortunately you did not forget to open the lid of this tube. I am very happy to hear you. "The King was very surprised to hear the explanation of the Ants who know life sparingly.
The King was smiling a little see the ant. "You are a great ant, you can save your needs. This will be broadcast to the whole country, so that my people can imitate you. If the Ants alone can save, why humans actually live wasteful? "
"You should not praise me too much," replied the Ant. The ant finally got another prize from the King. As a token of thanks for teaching him a life-saving mark.
