Once there was a king who told some of his workers to bring a large vessel. Once the vessel was brought, the king made an announcement to his people saying that one person from each household has to bring a glass of milk during the night and pour it into the vessel. So, the vessel should be full of milk by the morning. After receiving the order, everyone went home. One man prepared to take the milk during the night. He thought that since everyone will bring milk, he could just hide a glass of water and pour inside the vessel. Because it will be dark at night, no one will notice. So he quickly went and poured the water in the vessel and came back. In the morning, the king came and to his surprise the vessel was only filled with water!
Everyone was thinking like the other man..
