The boss, curious, plays the game. The man then
takes out a guinea pig from his pocket, places it on the counter and
the animal stands on its two hind legs and begins to dance the polka.
The boss reacts: “You’re right, I’ve never seen this before,
it’s amazing – here’s your drink.”
A few minutes later, the
man who wants a second drink offers the boss: “For a second
miracle, would you offer me another drink?”
The boss, still
curious, accepts. The man then takes a toad out of his other pocket
and places it on the counter. The toad clears his throat and begins
to sing. He has a beautiful soprano voice.
Seeing this, one of
the clients of the bar addresses the man:
“I give you 1000
francs of your toad!”
– “It works,” replies the
man, placing the toad in the client’s hand.
And, as an aside,
the boss of the bar addresses the man by whispering in his ear:
–
“You are sick, such an animal, it’s worth millions …”
The
man answers: – “Not really, it’s the guinea pig that is
ventriloquist.”
