~ Debt ~

Nasreddin Hodja owed some money to the grocer. One day the grocer
asked for his money.
`How much is it that I owe you?' asked the Hodja.
`31 akce.' said the grocer.
`Does the Mukhtar owe you money too?'
`Yes, Hodja Effendi, he owes 25 akce.'
`Mukhtar Effendi and I are good friends.' Hodja started to expound.
`Don't worry, between the two of us, we will pay that 25 akce. Then,
what is left of my debt? 6 akce. So then, you pay me that remaining 6
akce and we are even.'
