Jinhoo, with fruits tucked in his arms, had also brought the remaining food and other things from home. Therefore, he simply sat down under the big tree at the entrance to the village and called out, "Come and look, come and see—time-honored sugar lumps, and all kinds of sewing threads. The supply today is limited; once they're all traded, I'll be gone—"
While speaking, he set up a makeshift stand for his goods and arranged them neatly.
The children saw that there indeed weren't many items, especially the sugar scraps, of which there were only two or three packets. They immediately became anxious.
If they were left behind, who knew when they would be able to trade for some again.
Therefore, they dispersed in a flurry, rushing back home with a thudding of feet to fetch the things they had gathered from the mountains and hurried off to the village entrance.
This commotion soon attracted quite a few people's attention.
