The friend said, “Yes, I did sell the well to the farmer but not the water inside it. He has no right(权利) to draw water from the well.”
The king said, “Look, as you sold the well, you have no right to keep the water in the farmer's well. You must pay rent(租金) to the farmer, or you should take it out at once.” Seeing that his plan didn't work, the friend gave up and went home.
