The village’s children were the first to notice

The village’s children were the first to notice the magical powers of the poor, old man who had recently come to their village. Very soon, through his magic, in his brief stay at the village, the poor old man rights a few wrongs and teaches the village people something to always fondly remember him by.
Tune in to this Chinese tale of magic and generosity from the link in bio.

Sven, the caretaker of the drawbridge used to raise the bridge whenever a big boat had to pas through the river underneath. Once, the king was getting late for a feast and as the bridge was being raised for the king's ship to pass, the king lost his patience and shot the bridge "into a thousand pieces".
However it wasn't long before the king's thoughtless act came to bite him back.
Listen to the story to learn what did a king do to repair his mistake.

Can one fill a tummy with praises instead of food?

Can one fill a tummy with praises instead of food? The crow had found a delicious wheat bread for his lunch but the fox butters him up and tries to make him sing with the hope that the bread would fall off his beak and get caught by the fox.
Tune to this tale from the link in bio to know if the fox’s flattery pumps enough air in the crow’s head to make him lose his lunch.
