"If I've answered all your questions, then you can begin picking stones now," the old president said with a louder voice than normal to initiate the competition.
The onlookers who had nothing better to do had their excitement's bubbling up as the old man initiated the beginning of the competition but to their utter dismay, the two contestants did not move from their positions even after hearing the old president initiate the competition.
Though both Davies and Lee Jung stood rooted in place, not moving even after they were supposed to, they were doing so for different reasons.
Davies's eyes swept across the floor looking at all the shops and a thought appeared in his head,
'How many stalls even are there?'
The establishment didn't have more than a stall selling stones on this floor as they rented it to other people who sold stones and collected a certain percentage of the sale as well as rent for the stall.
