Shiv Trader

We’ve been set up here in Khudpur for a while now. Most people find us easily because we are right near the Hanuman Mandir. If you're coming through Trabganj, you'll see us. It’s a busy spot, especially in the mornings when people are heading to the temple. Our shop isn't anything fancy, just a regular place where we keep our stock and wait for customers to drop by. Some days are quiet, while others keep us on our feet from start to finish. We mostly handle trading bits and pieces that locals need. Usually, the day starts with opening the shutters and sweeping out the dust. It gets quite dusty on this road. We have a couple of chairs inside if someone wants to sit for a minute while we get their order ready. The sun hits the front of the shop in the afternoon, so it gets a bit warm. We don't have fancy air conditioning, just a ceiling fan that does its job well enough. Sometimes the neighbors come by just to chat about the weather or how things are going in the village. It's a simple way of living. We try to keep things organized on the shelves, but sometimes it gets a bit messy when we're busy loading or unloading stuff. We just focus on what needs to be done each day. It's a honest living and we've gotten used to the rhythm of this street.
