Herring Humor: A Russian and a Jew

On a train to Moscow, a Jew and a Russian army captain were sharing a compartment. The Russian was bigoted and stereotyped Jews, so he asked the Jew: "Hey Jew how come you all are so smart?"

The Jew was eating herring so he kept quiet and didn't reply. The Russian kept on asking him. At last, the Jew became fed up and told the Russian: "We Jews are smart because we eat herring."

Then the Russian asked the Jew to sell him a few herrings.

"Sure" said the Jew.  "A herring will cost you 10 rubles."

The Russian became very excited and bought 5 herrings. After a few minutes, the Russian thought about it and said "Son of a bitch Jew, I can buy 5 herrings for 5 rubles in Moscow!!"

Then the Jew said "See- it already started working."
