Aslan looked at the money Barl had given him and thanked the man.
"Barl," Aslan called as the man turned to serve a customer who had come early in the morning.
"Yeah?"
"Can I borrow your hat?" Aslan asked while pointing at Barl's hat.
"This hat? Of course… you can borrow it."
"Thank you."
Aslan kept the money Barl gave him in his money bag which was also given to him by his wife. Even though it was still very early in the morning, the market was already very crowded. Hilda once said that if he wanted to do business at the market, sell it at three in the morning because at that time, the shop owners would look for daily necessities in large quantities.
Aslan didn't understand the old woman's meaning until he saw for himself how busy the market was even though the sun hadn't set yet.
