The text mentions Madhavrao was asked for fifteen rupees Dakshina. Why was he considered so wealthy that he could easily give this large sum to Baba?

The source material from Chapter 18 does not contain any information regarding Madhavrao's financial status or whether he was considered wealthy. The text only describes the event where a messenger from Baba asks him to get fifteen rupees as Dakshina from Shama. Upon hearing this, Madhavrao was extremely surprised and, instead of providing the rupees, responded by saying to convey his 'namaskar' as the form of Dakshina. The messenger then acknowledged this by stating that 'fifteen namaskars were received,' but there is no mention of Madhavrao's personal wealth.
