Kautsya

Or Kautsa. A disciple of Varathendu. After his education, he asked his teacher what he’d like as gurudakshina. The teacher said he wanted 14 crore gold coins. Kautsya approached the emperor Raghu, who had just concluded the Vishwajit yajna and given away all his wealth. His treasury was empty and he only had wooden vessels left. On knowing Kautsya’s requirement, he decided to attack Kuber. But during the night, Kuber rained gold coins into the king’s treasury. The emperor gave the required gold coins to Kautsya.
