Banta is in Ludhiana. He is walking on a street which has a Clock Tower when someone asks him if he wants to buy the clock on the Tower. Banta says "Yes". "Give me a thousand rupees and I`ll go get a ladder." The man took the thousand and disappeared. Having waited for several hours the Banta figured he was taken. On the next day the Banta is again walking along the same street and the same man asks him to buy the clock. "Give me a thousand rupees and I`ll go get a ladder." Banta gives him the thousand and says "I am not a fool. This time, you wait and I`ll go get a ladder." |
