    How many crows in the kingdom?

    << Go back to the index of Birbal Stories

    One day Akbar was strolling in his palace gardens with his dear minister Birbal.
    Many crows were flying around. The King enjoyed their flying. Just then he
    thought, that how many crows could be in his kingdom and immediately posed
    this question to Birbal.

    Birbal thought a moment, then said, "They are ninety-five thousand, four
    hundred and sixty three (95, 463) crows in your kingdom, Huzoor." "How do you
    know that for sure?" the King asked. "You can get them counted, Huzoor." Birbal
    said.

    The king again said, "If there will be less than that, then?" Birbal replied
    immediately, "That means that the rest of them have gone on vacation to some
    neighboring kingdoms." "Or if there were more than that, then?" "Then it means
    that other crows are visiting your kingdom, Huzoor."

    Akbar was very pleased with this answer of his question.
