THE RED FAN AND THE BLUE FAN
Once upon a time, one farmer found on the road two fans, one was red and the other was blue. These fans were magic! The red fan made the nose big and the blue one made the nose small.

The farmer made peoples noses big sometimes with the red fan and other times he made a lot of money when he used blue fan to make people's big noses small. For instance, one day, he passed by an old woman on the street and used the red fan (without her seeing, of course!), made her nose very big. She screamed and screamed when she felt her nose growing three times its usual size! He rushed to her cries and offered to heal her of her misfortune for a fee, of course. The farmer's price are very high, however, the woman was willing to pay any amount to get her nose back to normal.

Wouldn't you? That's how the man became very wealthy.

One day, he became very curious to know how big the nose could become. So he used his own nose and played with the red fan. His nose reached to the sky and to the house of the god of heaven. The angry god ordered that his nose be tied up to a column.

When the farmer tried to shrink his nose with the blue fan he started to move upward, toward the sky. At that time god ordered that his nose be released from the column and the farmer fell down to the ground.

After that time, he never used the red or blue fan again!

This story teaches us that even though we may find good luck, we need to use it wisely or it could become bad luck.
