Parable (№ 86316)

One girl decided to order a dress from a well-known tailor because he sewed beautifully and always conscientiously. However, she thought of the dress it too expensive. And therefore came to the Studio, the first thing to do is to negotiate the price.
- You very much for my dresses, she said.
- Really? I do not think so, ' replied the tailor.
- And how expensive! Judge for yourself - for sewing dresses for me will require no more than two meters of fabric. So?
"So," he agreed.
- Well, if the material cost, add the cost of thread, needles and even scissors, which this dress is cut, you still get at least half the price. So to pay I have accordingly halved.
The tailor paused for a moment, and then said:
- Well, young lady, you almost had me convinced. So much so that I even take you half the original cost. If you insist, of course.
- Of course, insist! - happy girl.
- Agreed. Now I'll take the necessary measurements and a week later a messenger will deliver your order directly to your home.
All week long, the girl boasted to her friends how cheap she will receive a dress by a famous tailor. They did not believe and wanted to make sure personally that they do not cheat. At the appointed hour we all gathered at her house. Came a messenger with a box. The girl solemnly removed the lid and pulled out... two meters of fabric, a few spools of thread, needles and scissors.
In anger, she rushed to the tailor.
And you dared to deceive me?! she cried, barely crossed the threshold.
- No deception was not shook his head tailor. - I put in the box everything that was listed you. If there is still something missing, then maybe it's because you forgot to pay for it.
