2. Dividing the Cow
They bought a cow together. Boltu proposed: "I'll take the front half, and you take the back half."
Poltu happily agreed, thinking he'd get all the milk from the back. But Boltu soon pointed out that since the front was his, Poltu had to pay for all the fodder and water to feed the cow's mouth. Meanwhile, Boltu sat at the back and took all the milk for himself!
