A King was visiting Nasrudin’s town, and ate a meal of sheep meat in his restaurant. When the King finished the meal, he asked Nasrudin how much to pay.

Surprised to hear such a high figure, the King said, “Wow, that is very expensive. Are sheep rare in this part of town?”

“No, not really,” Nasrudin replied. “What’s really rare around here is visits of Kings!“
