Sir,
While converting the affirmative sentences into negative ones,the meaning should not change.
1. I have many friends.
A. I do not have few friends. ( Does it means I have many friends?)
B.I don't have few friends.
I would like to know whether I should use 'and few' or only 'few'.
Thanks.

That is certainly not what I would expect. In that case:
1. I have many friends.
A. I don't have few friends.

2. Dolon has a few riches.
A. Dolon does not have many riches.
