    A farmer and his neighbor brought a dispute to Emperor Akbar, where the neighbor had sold the farmer a well but claimed he did not sell the water. Birbal was asked to settle the dispute, pointing out to the neighbor that if he sold the well but kept the water inside, he was effectively storing his water in the farmer's property and would need to pay rent or remove the water. Realizing he was outwitted, the neighbor apologized and dropped his claim.

    "Didn't you say that you sold your well to this farmer?" Birbal asked the neighbor. "So, the
    well belongs to him now, but you have kept your water in his well. Is that right? Well, in that
    case you will have to pay him a rent or take your water out at once."
