Shopping from Aladdin's kettle.

In the mythical Era of Aladdin so many years ago beyond time. There came a village called the Yashin tribe. The village was known for the poorest of the tribe living in the vicinity. The king of the Yashin tribe, “ Zexona,” called for the Priests in the land to help look into their poverty situation, and they were told that their problem would be over in a few days.

A few days later, a poor old visitor from the eastern territory of the land entered the land and told the king that he was their problem solver sent by the gods. The king asked him how he would solve their problem in a private meeting and the poor visitor named Aladdin put his hand in his sack and brought out a kettle, he said “ with the rule to follow your highness, this kettle will make everyone and everything in this land change for good” and gave it to the king that he should make a wish then recite it sutra saying “ Tue Tue, Tue Tue “ and see what will happen.

The king did that, and golden coins appeared in sacks beside him, and he immediately believed it was a changed time; he gave old Aladdin a house where he stayed, which was named Aladdin's Shopping Building and under it,” Shopping is Free is also stated boldly”. The king then asked what the rules were and Aladdin said “ A family representative will only shop once in two months from the kettle and ten percent of the goodies will be given to me as appreciation “ he concluded by saying other rules are for him to keep which was abide by and before six months, the Yashin tribe’s statues upgrade to high class.

The king called for Aladdin one day, he said “ Aladdin, I want one help from you, can you take my son, Prince Zexo to stay with you as an apprentice so that he will learn the ways of the kettle as you have aged already and what of if deaths come “ he said putting his face down. Aladdin understands the king's worry for his tribe and agrees that the prince should stay with him.
Staying with Aladdin, Prince Zexo notices that Aladdin has never shopped from the kettle but only lived on the ten percent given to him, he then asks his Master Aladdin about his observation, and Aladdin answers, “Prince Zexo, as the kettle bearer, I have a strict rule that governs me too and it goes thus, be contented with what you have and shopping from the kettle is a taboo as it will get you to become greedy and lose yourself “ he told prince Zexo while unknown to Aladdin, king Zexona only send prince Zexo to come to find a way to strip the kettle away from old Aladdin.

One day, Prince Zexo stole the kettle and hid it and when people needed the kettle to shop from and Aladdin could not find it, he just smiled and chanted his Sutra “ Tue Tue, Tue Tue” Then all of a sudden, the kettle appeared on his hand and he gave it to people who wants to shop and after usage, it was returned back to Aladdin and this worries prince Zexo knowing that the kettle can not be stolen and he reported the scene to the king who now told prince Zexo to shop from the kettle demanding and exact one which he did and immediately prince Zexo have his wish come to pass, he left with the original kettle and went to the palace.

Getting there, Prince Zexo tries to shop for the money to fill up his room, which comes to pass, and he is very happy. King Zexona believes that old Aladdin is not needed again, and he orders some guards to set fire to Aladdin's house to kill him. Immediately Aladdin saw this, he knew his life was not safe there, and he ran away from the village before the cock crows.

The king, on the other hand, called his people and told them that the palace was now where they would do the kettle shopping. They asked about Aladdin, and the king told them that he had not seen him after the burning house and had searched for him to no avail. Then they asked how come they had the kettle; then the king lied again, saying that Aladdin himself gave it to his son, “Prince Zexo,” to keep before his disappearance, which they also believed in, and everything went well.

People keep shopping in the palace with the kettle, which keeps working, and the Yashin tribe becomes the richest in the vicinity. Then, the king forgot that he was the kettle bearer, and due to the fact that his people were now becoming rich, it made him want to shop with the kettle after the rule of the bearer warning that Prince Zexo told him. After demanding and reciting the sutra “ Tue Tue, Tue Tue, and nothing comes to pass, he then knew that the problem had happened due to the fact that he was greedy.

After that, the people of the village couldn't shop with the kettle, too, and anger arose among the villagers, saying that the king was selfish and that is why they lost their gift, which the gods of their land bestowed them with. King Zexona was overthrown by the villagers and chased out of the village with his family without picking a dime as they were walking through to the village that followed the Yashin tribe, they saw Aladdin and the king knelt down by begging him that he had offended him but Aladdin said “ you have not offended me, the gift for your land is yours, it was just that you have no patience enough to wait was the problem” he continues saying that if the king was patient enough, the kettle will pick it bearer itself and it will remain in the tribe till eternity but now Aladdin said,” king Zexona, you can't have your cake and eat it at the shopping spot". Aladdin disappeared and the king and his family wandered around earth and settled in a village to start from the beginning.
