A poor, traveler was walking through the town market with a dry piece of plain bread in his hand. He stopped near a local restaurant where a greedy cook was roasting delicious meat over an open grill, releasing a wonderful smell into the air.

The traveler held his dry bread directly over the steaming meat smoke, allowing the savory scent to soak into his food before taking a bite. Seeing this, the greedy cook ran out furiously, grabbed the poor man's shirt, and demanded payment for the smell of his meat.

The poor traveler had no money, so the cook dragged him to the court room of Nasreddin Hodja, who was acting as the local Kadi. The cook explained his financial complaint, demanding silver coins because the traveler utilized his commercial smoke.

Hodja listened to the ridiculous complaint calmly, took a small leather full of coins from his pocket, and held it close to the greedy cook's ear. He shook the pouch rhythmically, making the silver coins clink melodiously against each other for a few minutes.

The cook smiled happily, reaching out his hand to take the money, but Hodja put the pouch back into his pocket. He looked at the greedy restaurant owner and declared his final : 'The poor man only smelled your meat; therefore, the sound of these coins is the perfect payment for the smell of your food!'
