I needed to buy something. Asked the possible price range at the hotel reception.
Go to the local market, they said. Maximum price Indonesian Rupees 15,000/=.
I had walked past a lady selling rice field hats, many times.
I stopped this time. The price? She said 40,000 rupees.
I said 10,000. She said 25,000. I said 2 for 30,000.
I said that includes a photograph. Okay, she said.
I thanked her. Gave her 40,000. Bought 1 of the hats you see on your right. 25,000 for her photograph.
Worth it and more.
