Tenants

One Cheenti(ant) knocks the door of a house. House owner opens the door.
"I want a place to stay", said the Cheenti ..
"I have a vacant room which you can occupy for free of cost", said the
owner. Cheenti went inside and occupied that vacant room.


After some days, the Cheenti brought in another Cheenti and requested the
owner "Can you please allow this Cheenti to stay along with me".


"Oh sure, you can do so without paying any rent" said the owner.
After some days the Cheenti brought one more Cheenti and requested the
owner to allow that Cheenti to stay with it. Owner agreed to it without
asking for any rent.


This continues and Cheenti brings in one more Cheenti and owner agrees for
it. On one fine day, the Cheenti brought in the tenth Cheenti and
requested the owner to allow that tenth Cheenti also to stay with it.


The owner said "Ok, you all can stay here but you need to pay rent". Now
the question is : Why did the owner ask for rent when the tenth Cheenti
came in?
