Chandrapal General Store

In Vijay Garh, everyone knows where the Main Bazar is. That’s where you’ll find Chandrapal General Store. I’ve been running this place for a long time now. Agra is my home, and this shop is where I spend most of my hours. It’s not a big fancy supermarket. It’s just a room filled with the things people need to keep their houses running. I sell things like light bulbs, detergents, and snacks. The kids from the nearby houses often come in with a few coins for some sweets. I know their parents and their grandparents too. It’s that kind of neighborhood. The street outside can be quite dusty, and when it rains, it gets a bit muddy. But the people still come. I don't have any employees, so I do everything myself. I open the shutters in the morning and I pull them down at night. I take care of the inventory and I clean the floors. It’s a lot of work for one person, but I’m used to it. The shelves are made of wood and they have seen better days, but they are strong. I don't try to compete with the big stores in the city center. I just provide for the people right here in Vijay Garh. It’s a quiet life in some ways, even with all the noise of the bazaar. I just keep things moving. The clock on the wall stopped years ago, but nobody seems to mind at all.
