  Once upon a time, a millionaire named Culaka was a kind of person who possessed an exceptional ability of knowing things beforehand precisely by seeing signs of omen or augury.
  One day, he saw a dead mouse on a side of the road on his daily journey.

  A young pauper heard the millionaire’s word; he thought of a way to make benefit from the dead mouse.

   So he did as what he thought and earned 1 Kakanuk for the deal. The following morning, he spent the money to buy some cane juice and sell it at the city’s gateway.

Every time of being given flowers, he sold them out in the market; finally, he could make the total income of 8 Kahapanas to himself.

One day in the rainy season, a heavy storm broke out.  Many trees in the palace were uprooted by the gale-force wind.  Plenty of broken branches scattered here and there.

  Seeing the devastated site, the palace gardener felt so concerned about how to cope with the storm-ravaged grounds.

After having got the deal, the young man went straight to the play ground.

 The young man told all the boys what he wants them to help.  The children so joined in and united their effort to gather all pulled-down trees and laying broken branches.

 Finally, he received the total amount of 16 Kahapanas from the sale as well as a large earthen jar and other five pieces of potteries.
