A king sends for his favourite minister with an unusual request

When the minister arrives, the king tells him "On a daily basis, I am introduced to very smart men. I wish to see all types of people living in my kingdom. I order you to bring me the 5 biggest idiots in my kingdom".

The minister is baffled and wonders how he can find 5 idiots. Nonetheless, he searches across the kingdom, every city and every town and presents 2 people to the king.

The kings says to him, "Who are these people and why are they here?"

"These are the idiots you requested. The first idiot was trying to water an egg in the hopes that it will produce many chicks instead of one and the second one kept jumping up and down in hopes of one day being able to jump to the moon".

"Good job with finding these 2 idiots but I specifically remember asking you to bring me 5"

"I'm not done your highness, the third biggest idiot in the kingdom is me, for with all my responsibility and tasks, I have wasted the past month searching for 5 idiots without questioning your decision."

"Hah, you're right, you are an idiot. What about the other 2?"

"I'm sorry to say this my king, but with all the poverty and corruption in the kingdom, you have commissioned so much money as well as your smartest minister on a stupid task, you are the fourth idiot".

The king is half-amused, half-enraged but composes himself and finally says, "Alright fine. Now tell me who the biggest idiot is"

"Despite having so much work to do and so many responsibilities, you have spent so much time reading this joke. Dear reader, you are the biggest idiot!"
