The shop I walked by was a store selling dried fishes. Many bags were placed in the storefront. And dried fishes were displayed in each bag. Some fishes were long and thin. Some fishes were small. Seemingly, various types of dried fishes were sold here.

A man wearing a tank top and longyi stood in the storefront. He put his hands into one of many bags and grabbed a whole handful of fishes. And he moved the fishes into another bag. He might receive a substantial order. Anyway, he worked busily.

On the other hand, one woman sitting in the store read a book calmly. She was completely indifferent to the busyness of the man. She didn't lift her eyes and kept reading. Women often worked much harder than men in many countries. Yet the circumstance was different at least in this store.
