"Like a Rice Harvester" Speaking Technique

"Like a Rice Harvester" Speaking Technique

A long time ago, a rich boy hunted and brought back a buck. On the road, another rich boy saw it and started crying and saying,
"What have you done, brother? This buck is mine, and it is not like the other ten bucks. This buck used to vomit ten annas of gold from its stomach for me every morning. And did you kill that buck of mine?"

Hearing this, the hunter boy asked,
"So, brother, for how many days, for how many months, has this buck been giving you gold?"

While crying, he replied,
"This will be about three months"

Now the hunter's boy also said,
"Now I have found the real secret, this goat used to eat ten annas of gold every day from the pile of gold stored in my yard.
Even if I tried to scare him, it would not work. So today,
I am going to kill him for that crime.
And brother, you are also my culprit. Give back the gold you have been taking from me for the past few months, Bapu. Otherwise, there will be problems."

The poor man hit his own foot with an axe.

Inevitably, he had to pay him three months' worth of gold, calculating ten annas a day.

This is called "talking like a rice harvester." When harvesting rice, one first holds the rice plants together, as many as one can fit in one's fist. Then, by cutting them with scissors at the base, all the rice plants in one's hand come into one's possession. Similarly, when speaking, one must listen to the other person completely and then cut them off by responding to the root of the words. Where a fool has ten words, a wise man has one. That is, one word out of ten words.
