A Jews tailor opened a shop in a town; some children in the town always came to his shop to disturb him. They everyday stand in front of the Jews shop and shouted “Jews! Jews!” The tailor was very angry but he did not have any ideas to solve this problem. He could not sleep for a few nights; finally he manages to get a solution.
During the next day, those children came again, so he told them: “From now on, who shout Jews will get RM 1 from me.” Hence, he gave RM 1 to every child.
The children were very happy; they came again on the third day and shouted: “Jews! Jews!” the tailor smiled and gave every child 50 cents, he said: “RM 1 is too much, so today everyone only gets 50 cents.”
The children were still happy because 50 cents were counted as money too. On the fourth day, when they reached the shop again, the tailor only gave them one cent.
“Why today only give us 1 cent?” the children asked.
“I only can give you all 1 cent today.”
“The day before yesterday we got RM 1, yesterday still got 50 cents, today just 1 cent only, this is so unfair.”
“So, just stop shouting.”
Finally, they really did not shout anymore.
