What was the Sanyasi's argument to convince Mamlatdar Dev to support the cow shelter collection, and why did Dev feel suspicious when the Sanyasi returned a month later?

The Sanyasi argued that the religious work of cow protection could not be accomplished by a stranger like himself and required the support of the Taluka officer, Dev. He appealed to Dev's position, stating that if Dev just "dropped a word," the work would be done quickly, earning him blessings. However, as Chapter 40 explains, Dev had to refuse, citing an ongoing collection and asking the Sanyasi to return in a few months. Dev felt suspicious when the Sanyasi was seen returning just a month later because he had explicitly been told the timing was not right and he should wait two to four months, making him wonder if the Sanyasi had forgotten their conversation.
