There was a farmer who had a magical apple tree.

Every year, the tree would grow golden apples.

The farmer would collect the golden apples and sell them.

One day, a greedy merchant came and offered the farmer a big bag of gold for the whole tree.

The farmer thought about the offer, tempted by the riches.

But he realized that if he sold the tree, he would never have golden apples again.

He refused the greedy merchant's offer and continued to enjoy the golden apples every year.

The moral of the story is: Do not be greedy and value what you have.
