Following Sai Baba's initial warning against partnership, Damu Anna considered another business. What was that idea, and how did Baba specifically advise against it?

After Sai Baba discouraged the partnership by saying, "We are not in anything," Damu Anna did not give up on business entirely. A new thought arose in his mind to pursue a trade in commodities like rice, wheat, or other grains. As detailed in Chapter 25, Sai Baba, once again perceiving his internal thoughts, gave a very specific and symbolic reply to this unvoiced idea. He told Damu Anna, "You will buy five seers and give seven seers." This cryptic statement clearly signified a losing proposition where he would sell for less than he bought. Hearing these words, Damu Anna became dejected, finally understanding that this path was also not beneficial for him.
