    This sounds less like a riddle and more like a math problem.

    At any rate few people who post here know the value of paise and rupees.

    1 rupee = 100 paise

    I don't understand the part about 20 something. He is going to buy 20 animals?

    My concern is A (singular) Buffalo for X EACH?

    I think it's a math question.
