1. One courtier stepped up to Birbal and said, "You are indeed very clever. Surely you can tell me how many crows are there in Agra." 2. Some courtiers in Akbar's court were jealous of Birbal. They asked Akbar permission to let them test Birbal's wiseness. Akbar told them to go ahead. 3. Birbal said to him, " Could you tell me how many hairs are there on your head?" "Why no" said the man. "I am sorry, then," said Birbal, "For that is exactly how many crows are there in Agra." Akbar and all the courtiers had a hearty laugh at this. 4. Birbal thought for a moment and said," give me a week and I shall give you the exact number."
