One day when the donkey and the salt seller were crossing the river, the donkey fell into the river. As in the bags, there was salt so it mixed with the water and the bags become relatively less heavy, which was easy to carry for the donkey.

As the donkey seen that by falling into the river it have to carry less weight so all the day the donkey crossing the river it jumped into the river as it seems that the donkey fell into the water. and the weight becomes less and it carries less weight.

But the salt seller getting loses every day for the donkey. So one day he thought to carry cotton instead of salt. but the donkey has done the same and jumped into the river by showing as it has fallen.
