debt because Mr. Raje always doubles the amount.
One day, Mr. Raje asked Penyumpit to look after the plants the rice is in the rice fields.
"Oh Chopsticks, take care of my rice! If my rice arrives damaged. you have to replace it,"
ordered Mr. Raje.
"Yes, Mr. Raje," answered Penyumpit politely.

come to eat the rice at night. However, Mr. Raje deliberately ordered Penyupit to look
after him. If his rice fields are damaged, he plans to ask Penyumpit for compensation. He
will also give other, more difficult tasks.
For several nights, Penyumpit always succeeded in driving away the wild boars. On the
seventh night one of the wild boars was hit by his spear. The chopper hunted the pig into
the middle of the forest. In the middle of the forest, the pig changed into a beautiful
woman. Chopstickers were really surprised.

answered while holding back the pain. "What I'm swiggah tittak taku. Let me treat you."

turned into gold, diamonds, silver and diamonds. Penyumpit sells part of it to build a
house and pays for everything.
