The wise men returned with their camels, carrying 5000 books full of wisdom. Seeing so many books, the king was so shocked that he didn't know how to start. So he ordered the wise men to condemn the books and bring them back to him. Another five years passed. The wise men again went to see the king, this time bringing 500 books, but the king still thought there were too many. Five more years passed. The wise men brought back 50 books. At this time, the king was troubled with many problems, but he still felt were too many books.During the next few years, the wise men worked hard to condense the 50 books into one book and present it to the king.

He did not have the wisdom to solve these problems.
