"EN: Stroll through this huge market with its countless aisles.
Remember, all prices are negotiable but don't bargain too low either, as they live on that.
FR : Flânez dans cet immense marché aux innombrables allées.
N'oubliez pas que tous les prix sont négociables, mais ne négociez pas trop bas non plus, car ils en vivent. "
