Quite a long time ago there lived a Spice trader,His name was Patric.He used to go far away places to sell his spices.He had a Camel for this purpose.He used to go out for six months.One place to another was his routine for these six months.He was a 35 years old man and he was un married but he had a pet Parrot named Pepper.He baught it while he was a very small Baby and he used to fed him milk by dropper, at that time.Pepper was a very intelligent Parrot and not only learnt to imitate Patrick but he used to use his own brain.
He used to be with Patrick during his tours and enjoyed journey .Patrick was a little bit greedy man and wanted more and more money because he used to think about marriage and live a good life.He was tired of these journeys and this hard life.He wanted to be rich very soon but how he could not think what to do.
He used to stay home just for one or two months ,that too being busy buying Spices and grind them.Patrick was very affectionate towards his Camel Candy and Parrot Patrick.but he did not have much money to buy such bg quantity of Spices but he did not want to let it go .This time he got a big order from a Royal Palace One day suddenly a bad idea clicked in his mind ,”Why can’t I mix something of the same colour in Chilly Powder ,Mustard Powder and other Black spices and he immediately did it and while doing this he was talking to Pepper his Parrot as usual , he told to the Parrot what he is doing and now the quantity was 50% more ,exactly what he need ,he was happy and set forth,He reached to that Kingdom after fifteen days.He was called inside the court ,He went in,Parrot was on his shoulder as usual ,He put the bag of spice down and said the words as he used to speak ,”Your Majesty ! My Spices are Fresh and Original,Their Flavour increases hunger temptation “ “No your Majesty ,They are not original ,Patrick mixed something else in it”It was Pepper,Everybody in the court was shocked ,King’s eyes were burning with anger,He thought for a minute,Called his servants,asked them to dig a pit in the garden,when done,he asked every body to follow him,and asked servants to pick up the bag of spices,then asked them to throw those in the pit mix well with soil,and cover the pit,asked Patrick to go,and warned him not to do it again and never be hard towards Pepper.
