[[Antva-liiā Ch 9 ]]
TBANSI ATION
“The King said, ‘Speak to the Lord in such a way that He will not think, “For My sake the King has forfeited 200,000 kāhanas of kaudis.”
PLURPORT
The  kauḍi  is like an American cent or Japanese yen. In the old medium of exchange, the first unit of currency was a small conchshell called a  kauḍi . Four  kauḍis  made one  gaṇḍā , twenty  gaṇḍās  made one  paṇa , and sixteen  paṇas  made one  kāhana . Gopīnātha Paṭṭanāyaka owed the government 200,000  kāhanas . The King absolved him of this debt, reappointed him to his post and doubled his salary.
