Go learn a trade and support yourself because I won’t anymore!” He may have been lazy, but the loafer was also clever. He tricked his wife and neighbors into believing that he was a master sniffer—someone who could find anything using only his sense of smell. His fame spread far and wide, but when a theft occurred at the palace and the king summoned him to find ...
