Folklore - (in reference to chapter seventeen), there is a saying: “To make money by counting the waves.” The explanation is as follows. In ancient times, there was a rich vaiçya, who became famous all over the country as someone who could make money in any circumstances.


Some envious people poisoned the ears of the local King, and managed to convince him to send the businessman far away, where he would have no opportunity to make any money. The King decided to send him to a lonely place near the sea. But this vaiçya, true to his character, sat on the beach counting the waves! Whenever a vessel passed across the sea, he would stop it by waving his arms, and then say, “You are not allowed to cross. The King has appointed me to count the waves here, and your vessel is disturbing them.” He would argue back and forth, and only relent when he had extracted a bribe. In this way, he became a rich man again.
