The village shopkeeper is a well-known figure. He keeps a stock of almost all the necessities of life.
He sells wheat, wheat flour, grams, rice, pulses, ghee, soap, sugar, milk,
cloth, shoes, tobacco, cigarettes, eggs, fruit, vegetables, books, stationery, kerosene
oil, candles, crockery, glassware and what not. He also sells a few medicines,
and recommends their use to the villagers in very common diseases. He prepares
many sweets, and the villagers like them very much. They are often covered with
dust and flies, but nobody cares, in the village, about these enemies of human
life. He sells many things on credit every day. But he is sure to receive
payment, sooner or later, from his customers, in cash or kind. He is very fair
in his dealings, and the villagers have great regard for him. He earns a lot
and leads a very happy life.
