Read the story: Methi Pakoda

Kanjusmal was rich but he was a miser. He spent very little money. He ate very cheap food. His watchman lived in a hut near his gate. The watchman liked Methi Pakoda. So his wife made Methi Pakoda everyday. One day the miser passed by the hut. He caught the smell of Methi Pakoda. He liked it very much.

Kanjusmal said to the watchman, "I smell something good. What is it?" The watchman replied, "It is Methi Pakoda". Kanjusmal said, "Please cook it everyday. I like its smell." So the watchman and his wife made it everyday.

One day they went to Kanjusmal and said, "Sir, you like the smell of Methi Pakoda. So we cook it everyday. But Methi Pakoda is not cheap. We spend a lot of money on oil and besan. Please help us with some money."

Kanjusmal went inside and shut the door. He took some silver coins and dropped them one by one on the floor. Then the miser came out and said, "Did you hear the sound of the silver coins?" "Yes, sir, we did", they said. "Did you enjoy it?" "Yes sir, very much."

The miser said, "I enjoyed the smell of your Methi Pakoda. You enjoyed the sound of my money. I will not ask you to give me Methi Pakoda. And you don't ask for my money. That is a deal. Now go away and prepare Methi Pakoda."
