00:00Once upon a time, there lived a man named Padmanabhan in a village called Achuthapuram.
00:12He had four sons and a huge land which had one acre of fields and crops in it.
00:18Since his grandfather or his forefathers had not given him a vast amount of wealth, all
00:24he had to look after himself and his family was the land.
00:29His sons were getting older each day and he did not know how to get them married as
00:35the wealth he had was very minimal.
00:38As he was getting really worried, one day he sat with his friend Ramalingam under a
00:45tree and had a conversation.
00:48Ramalingam looked at him and said this.
00:50Listen, I have been watching you for a long time and you seem to be very sad.
00:56Could you please tell me?
00:57I am going through a lot right now.
00:59My sons are at the age of getting married but I am unable to get him married because
01:03of the lack of wealth and resources that I have and also all of my children right now
01:07are very irresponsible and unruly.
01:10Don't worry about that my friend.
01:11Your sons will gain responsibility dignity very soon.
01:14All you have to do is make sure that each of them get married.
01:18That would instill a lot of responsibility in their minds and they will all become mature
01:23and grown up very quickly.
01:24You just have to execute that plan.
01:26After hearing what Ramalingam said, Padmanabhan felt a little better.
01:30Padmanabhan then immediately walked away from the conversation and went to his house to
01:35talk to his sons.
01:36Listen to me my sons, now we can try and manage and help each other with what we have.
01:41But if you were to get married, it will be very difficult for all of us to look after
01:45each other.
01:46Have you ever thought about how to increase our wealth and how to make our lands better?
01:51If you have any ideas, please tell me right now.
01:53The first and the eldest son listened to what his father said quietly.
01:57He then looked at his father and said this.
01:59Father, if our one acre land is not giving us sufficient wealth and resources to manage
02:04our entire family, why not we just buy another land and farm in that land to gain profits.
02:10After listening to what the eldest son had to say, his father was very worried and says
02:15this.
02:16My son, we have been farming in our own land for the past several generations.
02:19If we were to sell our land or buy another land, even the people that respect us all
02:24these years will stop respecting us.
02:26This is not something that we can even consider.
02:28The father Padmanabhan pointed to the other three brothers and asked them if they had
02:32any ideas to prosper the family with wealth and resources.
02:36But unfortunately, they also gave very similar answers.
02:40This worried Padmanabhan very much.
02:42He went back to Ramalingam and said this.
02:45What your eldest son said isn't too bad of an idea.
02:47There is a lot of logic in that.
02:49His solution to your problem seems like a very quick and efficient one.
02:53Don't you know a thing about farming, Ramalingam?
02:55Farming is about luck and timing.
02:57Nothing will happen to us.
02:58It is not easy to buy a land or sell it and at the same time, it is also not easy to farm it.
03:03I think I have to push my sons so that they have to understand what life is like.
03:08I believe that.
03:09Just like when four seeds fall out of a tree, each seed grows a plant differently.
03:14Your sons have to be taught that all four of them are special and talented in their own ways.
03:19Don't worry.
03:20I have an idea.
03:21Ramalingam proceeded to convey an idea to Padmanabhan.
03:25After listening to that idea, Padmanabhan was very happy and satisfied.
03:29He went back to his house and told to his sons.
03:32My sons, I am going to the city for a very important business trip and I will not be
03:37available for the next four days.
03:38I want you guys to take care of yourself and your mother.
03:42After Padmanabhan left the very next day, while his eldest son was standing outside
03:46of the house, a stranger came towards Padmanabhan's house and said this.
03:51Sir, is anyone there at home?
03:54Who are you, sir?
03:55And what do you want?
03:56Sir, in a village far away, I possess a land which has a lot of bamboo trees in it.
04:02Since I am getting older in age, I am not able to cut this bamboo out and make proper
04:07yield of the resources that are there in my land.
04:09I would like to know if there is anyone who can cut the bamboo trees and clean my land.
04:13Can you please let me know?
04:15After listening to what the stranger said, the eldest son thought about it for a while
04:19and replied to him.
04:20You have a lot of bamboo trees in your land.
04:22You can hire somebody from the nearby village to come and cut the bamboos and make a lot
04:26of profits.
04:27What you are saying is a very good idea, my friend.
04:30But unfortunately, I am way too old and I cannot do that work.
04:32I just want somebody to come and take the bamboo trees and do whatever they want with
04:36it.
04:38If I could do it, it would be very glad to take the bamboo trees from my land.
04:41This idea interested the eldest son very much.
04:44He thought about the massive amounts of profits that he can make from taking the bamboo trees
04:49and selling it in the city.
04:51As he kept thinking about it, he was only worried about the travelling cost.
04:55The eldest son looked at the stranger and said this.
04:58Then fine.
04:59I shall also bring my brothers with me to your land so that we can finish the job as
05:03fast as we can.
05:05After listening to what the eldest son said, the stranger said that he would be there by
05:09tomorrow morning to pick them up.
05:12That evening, the eldest son looked at his brothers and said this.
05:15Listen to me, my brothers.
05:16Tomorrow we have a massive task ahead of us.
05:19This task will pay us a lot and we shall split the money equally.
05:22All the brothers agreed to what the eldest brother said.
05:25The next day morning, brothers worked day and night to cut off the bamboo trees in that
05:30land.
05:31They took the bamboos and went back to their home.
05:34This is a very difficult task to work in your land or a farm.
05:37If all of us get married, it will be very difficult for us to look after and help each
05:42other.
05:43Therefore, I suggest an idea where we take all the bamboos that we had just taken from
05:47the land and we sell it for a high price.
05:49This will help us use the money to start a business.
05:53All the four brothers accepted what the eldest son said.
05:56They remembered the trials and tribulations that their parents had gone through.
06:00The next day, as they were ready to sell all the bamboos they have taken from the stranger's
06:05land, the second brother comes running from outside to the house and says this to the
06:10oldest brother.
06:11Brother, instead of selling bamboos in the city, I have a businessman who is willing
06:16to purchase the bamboos with a higher price.
06:18I have informed him to come and talk to you.
06:21So he is right here.
06:22The younger brother introduces the businessman that he was referring to his older brother.
06:27The businessman looks at the brothers and says this.
06:31I have already seen you yesterday.
06:32I didn't know that you were about to sell the bamboos or I would have talked to you earlier.
06:36If you can sharpen the bamboos, I would be able to purchase it for a higher price than
06:40you can sell it in the city itself.
06:42Is that okay with you?
06:43Okay, sir.
06:44I need some time to think and evaluate your proposition.
06:47I shall discuss with my brothers and I shall get back to you soon.
06:50After the eldest son said that to the businessman, he gathered all his brothers together and
06:55he tried to have a conversation with them.
06:57While he was talking to all his brothers, the third brother left to converse with the businessman.
07:03Before we can go and talk to the businessman, we shall evaluate who is going to pay us a
07:07higher price.
07:08If it is the people in the city, we shall sell it to them or else we shall sell it to the businessman.
07:12All the three brothers agree to it.
07:15They take from morning till evening to sharpen all the bamboos.
07:18The third brother comes back home and says this to the elder brother.
07:22My brother, has the bamboo sold at a good price or shall we sell the rest of it to the businessman?
07:26When I went and enquired about the price of the bamboo tree, some of them told me to fix
07:31up a mat with the bamboo stems and would cost more than just the bamboo tree.
07:35If we can ourselves do this work, why can't we make mats out of these bamboo trees and
07:40sell it for a higher price?
07:41He is right.
07:42If we can make mats out of these bamboo trees, we can make more money by selling it.
07:47But we first have to learn about that.
07:49As these brothers were conversing with each other, their mother was listening to this
07:53quietly from the side.
07:54Padmanabhan's wife then came and she smiled and says this.
07:58I know how to make a mat out of the bamboo trees, my sons.
08:02I don't want you to worry about anything anymore.
08:04I shall teach you how to make them.
08:07The four brothers along with their mother started making bamboo mats in the house.
08:11Padmanabhan came back from the city and was shocked to see everything.
08:15He looks at his family and says this.
08:17What is going on in my house?
08:19Could somebody explain to me what is happening?
08:21The eldest son replied to his father and explained him everything that had happened.
08:25Padmanabhan listened to his son and walked away with a simple smile on his face.
08:30The brothers were not able to understand why their father smiled and they started making
08:35mats, baskets and chairs with the bamboo trees.
08:38After they finished making all the products, the next day, the third brother says this
08:43to the businessman.
08:44Sir, I would ask you to kindly forgive me.
08:47As we work hard to create all these bamboo products, we have decided to not sell this
08:51to you and try to sell this to the people ourselves.
08:54The businessman was very shocked to hear this and he looked at the brothers and said this.
08:59My friends, listen to me.
09:00It is much harder to sell a product than to make a product.
09:03It takes a lot of time, talent and expertise to have the skills to sell a product.
09:07I would request you to kindly think about your decision and please reconsider what you
09:11told me.
09:12Sir, I would like to tell you that a day before we did not know how to cut the bamboo trees.
09:17But we learned it.
09:18We did not know how to sharpen a bamboo tree.
09:20But we learned it.
09:21We did not know how to make a mat out of a bamboo tree.
09:24But we learned it in the same way.
09:25We will also learn how to sell a bamboo tree.
09:28The businessman accepted what the third brother had said and he left immediately.
09:33All the other brothers also accepted the idea.
09:36Meanwhile, Padmanabhan walked past his sons and he looked at them with a smile.
09:40He went back to Ramalingam, who looked at Padmanabhan and said this to him.
09:45Welcome, my friend.
09:46How was the journey to the city?
09:48Ramalingam asked this question to Padmanabhan jokingly and Padmanabhan said this to him.
09:55I am honestly did not know that this would work, Ramalingam.
09:58Always never understood how to make my sons become mature and responsible.
10:02But you have found a way to do it and I will always be grateful to you.
10:06Thank you very much, Ramalingam.
10:08You don't need to thank me for this.
10:10I just need one help from you.
10:11Tell me what you want, Ramalingam.
10:13I can do whatever is possible.
10:14The man that visited your house as a stranger is none other than my relative.
10:18He has a daughter named Devi who is at the age of getting married.
10:21All I want from you is to get married to one of your sons and that would be a way of giving
10:26me gratitude.
10:27Padmanabhan was quite shocked to listen to what Ramalingam had said.
10:31He then says this to him.
10:32I did not realize that the stranger that you sent to my house was your relative.
10:36This is very surprising to me.
10:38I have no issues in having one of my sons marry your relative.
10:41But I have to make sure that you are alright with the fact that my son had just started
10:46his business.
10:47He is not that experienced and he is not that wealthy.
10:50If that is alright with you, then we can consider.
10:52Padmanabhan says this in a very delightful manner.
10:55The stranger says this to Ramalingam.
10:57I can tell a person's character just by the way he talks.
11:01From the way I interacted with his sons, I can tell that this is a good family.
11:04I am willing to give my daughter to one of his sons.
11:07Padmanabhan was delighted to hear this.
11:09Ramalingam looked at Padmanabhan and said this.
11:12My friend, you don't need to worry about anything.
11:14I trust him very much.
11:15His name is Sundaram.
11:16If it is alright with you, Padmanabhan, I am willing to give my daughter to your eldest son.
11:20I am very glad to accept your proposal.
11:22But what I had dreamt of it is getting all my sons married at the same time.
11:26At that moment, another man walks into the conversation.
11:30This man's name is Veerappan.
11:31He has a very beautiful and talented daughter who is knowledgeable and very educated.
11:36He is willing to give his daughter to your second son.
11:38Because he is the man that made business with your second son.
11:41Padmanabhan is even more shocked at how fast this is happening.
11:45He then says this.
11:47What about the third businessman and the fourth businessman?
11:49Are they also your friends?
11:50Do they also have daughters to share?
11:52At that moment, two other businessmen walk into the conversation.
11:56It is us, sir.
11:57I am the man who met your second son and did business.
11:59I am the man who did business with your fourth son.
12:01If it is alright with you, as we all have daughters to give to your fourth son.
12:04Padmanabhan was utterly shocked and confused.
12:07He did not say a word.
12:09Now, Ramalingam said this.
12:11I made a decision to make sure that your sons know how to work and be responsible.
12:16And at the same time, your sons getting married.
12:18Padmanabhan looked at his friend Ramalingam with teary eyes, with the utmost gratitude
12:24that he had.
12:25He understood that his friend realized the problem that he had and did everything he
12:29can to fix it.
12:31And he says,
12:32Thank you so much my friend Ramalingam.
12:33Tomorrow we shall see the business skills of my sons and we shall come to a decision.
12:36The next day, all the four brothers went to the market and sold all the bamboo products
12:42that they had.
12:44Since their price was much cheaper in the village than in city, everything was sold
12:49out.
12:50Immediately, the sons collected all the money that they had made and went home and gave
12:55it to their father.
12:56The elder son looked at Padmanabhan and said this.
13:00Father, this is the first money that we have made with our hard work and our determination.
13:05We would like you to give this to us with your blessings.
13:07Thank you my sons.
13:08What I would like to do is, first to take off the price that you had for the bamboos.
13:12That is your first task.
13:13The elder son was quite surprised and he asked this.
13:17But father, didn't we get that bamboo for free from the stranger in his land?
13:21You are right.
13:22The stranger did give you the bamboos for free.
13:24But if we were to do this business again, we have to purchase bamboos as not everybody
13:30would be giving it to us for free.
13:32But why should we do it again?
13:34We did what we did because it came to us for free.
13:36Padmanabhan laughed at what his elder son said and he says this.
13:41My sons, within ten days, you have earned so much money that I haven't earned with
13:45my farmland in five years.
13:47You have realized how to do business in a span of a week.
13:50I want you to continue to pursue your skills and your ambitions and achieve more and more
13:54in your life.
13:55I want all of you to be successful and prosperous.
13:58All the four sons understood what their father said and proceeded with their ambition to
14:03make more money with the bamboo business that they have learnt.
14:08They went on to purchase more bamboos and started selling some more bamboo products
14:13by manufacturing them and selling them.
14:16As Padmanabhan promised to Ramalingam, all four of those sons were married at the same
14:21day with the father's blessings.
14:24But Padmanabhan kept the secret of how all this occurred from them till the rest of time.
14:30All the four sons lived happily ever after with their newly wed wives.
