Having “5 schei de mona” in your pocket in Venice means remembering that, when necessary, it’s best to act a little mona to avoid problems. Pretending not to understand, as a strategy during a negotiation or discussion, can be a surprisingly effective method. It’s a concept similar to the Neapolitan proverb: “Fa’ o scem pe’ nun ghi’ a guerra” (to act stupid to avoid war, that is, to escape a potentially dangerous situation).
