Selling a Ladder

There was a rich garden that was full of fruit trees near Nasreddin's house. Nasreddin himself did not have any fruit tree. One day he saw that the fruit trees had a lot of ripe fruits. Nasreddin wanted to pick some. Then he took a ladder from his toolhshed and put it againts the wall that protected the garden. Soom he climbed tha ladde. As he was on top of the wall he pulled the ladder up and put it in the other side of the garden. Then he climbed down the ladder.

When he was about to hop to the land, the owner of the garden came. He shouted, "What are you doing, here?" "I have a ladder and I want to sell it now," said Nasreddin quickly. "Selling your ladder? In my fruit garden? Don't be foolish, Nasreddin. I won't believe you. You must want to steal my fruits," said the owner angrily. "You're the fool," said Nasreddin. "It's my ladder, you know? I can sell it anywhere I want to. If you don't have any money, you needn't but it." And he climbed up the ladder again quickly. Then he pulled up the ladder and put it in the other side of the garden. He climbed down quickly and he got to his own yard already.
