Interesting to see a trickster/coyote legend from east asia, and fairly recent (last few hundred years). I wonder if there’s a longer tradition in Japan of people like this.
Nasreddin is AIUI originally a Turkish figure but whose legend exists over the whole Turkish-influenced world from the Balkans to China. Some of the stories have been translated to other cultures- I've definitely heard the one about the time he offers to teach a horse to sing told about a rabbi and the Tsar.
