...next morning  after  same informal breakfast  consisting of paratha and  omelets in  the hall they reached the work place,  there were some twenty two middle aged workers ,  this was also a big hall,  he was surprised to see a pile of yellow colored   sand , apparently just unloaded , , several  strainers were  also kept on its side , all the workers  in a semi circle  sat down  by the side of the  yellow sand pile, 

His friend Murad began to explain  how they had to  start the work stepwise  giving a demo,  all the yellow sand was sifted through the seive  leaving some pieces on the mesh, Murad explained  the pieces were  more yellow and were to be picked up and kept separately  in special  containers specially allotted for them, he pointed towards  large glass jars 

It is quite an easy task  Murad like  domestic women   pick out  little   bits of dirt out from  lentils  but do tell us what exactly are these  tiny pieces  size of mustard seeds so yellow 

You talk too much,  as if your ancestors were police men, why do you need to know all the details,  just do your work and slip the money in your pockets I  swear if it wasn't  for  my younger daughter's marriage  I would have stayed there doing that jib fir several more months
