Question

What are the two strange things the guru and his disciple find in the Kingdom of Fools?

Answer

The two strange things they found were:

  1. Change in Routine: Everyone in the kingdom slept during the day and worked at night. Even the cattle were taught to sleep by day.

  2. Fixed Pricing: Everything in the market cost exactly the same—one dudu. Whether it was a measure of rice or a bunch of bananas, the price never changed.
