Mulla Nasreddin was selling pies. Two people approached him and, having eaten quite a lot of pies, began to argue:
“I’ll pay the money,” one said,
- No, me! - shouted another. Then the dispute flared up even more.
“I won’t let you pay for anything!” - exclaimed one.
“And I won’t allow you to pay,” answered the other.
- I won’t take the money! - cried Mulla Nasreddin, carried away by the fervor of the debaters.
