Akbar sends Birbal out to make a list of fools. In his absence, Akbar buys a hundred horses for a lakh of gold coins. Birbal returns, shocked that Akbar has paid in advance, with just one horse in hand. Akbar asks how list is going; Birbal says he has just one more to add: Akbar. Akbar is angry. "What if the horse merchant does come back?" "Then I'll erase your name and write his there," says Birbal.
