The monks spend much time on meditation, which seems to be unproductive for society. But it is exactly what they want to do and enjoy it —— self-exploring. They beg for food and have it no matter how tasteful or unsavoury it is in tradition, and it is the right attitude in zen or Buddhism： just accept it and do not give any judgement. And they answer people's questions as a way to contribute to society.

And for the crowd, most of whom have a job and work every day, which seems to be productive, but is that what they really pursue and enjoy? Many people do not like their occupations and just regard them as ways to make a living. They think they have to do these things to "raise the children" or "buy a bigger house" or "get a better life". But actually, there is nothing that you have to do. A human can live with little cost as well as finite desire.
