Farmer's Horse

A farmer who plants a lot of vegetables decides to buy a horse to help him to pull a wagon to the town to sell the vegetables everyday. So he goes to market and buys a brown horse.

Right after buying the horse, the farmer receives a call that he needs to attend the International Farm Management Congress in Houston. As there is nobody at home, so he leaves the horse to his friend for a few days.

The farmer's friend has a donkey. The friend puts the horse together with his donkey in a small shed. The donkey is kind of lazy.

"I heard that you have to pull a heavy wagon with full of vegetables everyday. Why should you work so hard?" asks the donkey.

"Well, it is not that heavy actually," says the horse.

"There is no point that you have to work so hard. You don't get extra money or extra food by working hard, do you?" says the donkey.

So, everyday the donkey brain-washes the horse not to be hardworking. By the time the farmer comes back from the conference, he finds his horse does not want to work anymore. Everyday he tries to make the horse to pull the wagon, but the horse just refuses to do that. Sometimes, the horse purposely trips and falls down, making the vegetables falls all over the road.

The farmer is really angry and decides to kill the horse for the meat.
