The story begins with a mouse who had made a hole on a little hillock in a farmland. Unbeknownst to anyone, including the farmer who owns the land, the hole contains thousands of gold coins. The farmer is a kind-hearted person who notices the mouse sitting at the top of the hillock or peeking out of the hole. Despite having no idea about the treasure, the farmer starts leaving food near the hole every day.

One day, the mouse, grateful for the farmer's kindness, decides to repay him. The mouse takes a gold coin from the treasure and drops it at the farmer's feet. The farmer is surprised and grateful, and he shows the gold coin to the goldsmith, who offers a fair price for it. The farmer uses the money to buy food, toys, and gifts for his family, and they pray to Lord Ganesh, the god of wealth, for their good fortune.
