[www.keralites.net] Story of Monkey business :)

 

 
 

 

Once upon a time in a village a man appeared who announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for Rs. 10000. The villagers seeing that there were many monkeys went out in the forest and started catching them. The man bought thousands at 10,000 and as supply started to diminish and villagers started to stop their effort he announced that now he would buy at 20000 rupees.

 

 

This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching moneys again. Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms. The offer rate increased to 25000 and the supply of monkeys became so that it was an effort to even see a monkey let alone catch it.

The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at 50000! However, since he had to go to the city on some business his assistant would now buy on behalf of the man. In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers. Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at 35000 and when the man comes back you can sell it to him for 50000. The villagers queued up with all their saving to buy the monkeys. Phir na tau aadmi mila na us ka assistant. Sirf bandar hee bandar. After that neither the assistant was seen nor the man, only monkeys every where :)
