Later, the blacksmith was getting old and couldn"t work, so he told his son about how lazy he is. He challenged his son to earn one rupee so the entire will could be under his name. There were several attempts to earn the rupee but he failed because his mother would just give him the rupee. After failing the second attempt, he actually went and earned the money. His father threw the coins in the fire, which caused him to react. He used his bare hands to pick up the burning coins.
