The proprietor said, that will be $10 for the brass rat and $1,000 for the story behind it. The man said, Thanks, but Ill just pay the $10 and pass on the story.

He purchased the brass rat and left the store. As he was walking down the street, he started noticing all sorts of rats following him. The further he walked — the more rats followed.

Nope, replied the man, Just came back to see if you have any brass lawyers!
