Vendor of sweet chapter 7
In the seventh chapter, Jagan reduces the price of the sweetmeats, resulting in the store becoming crowded. Jagan's cousin and the cooks are concerned by this sudden display of generosity and worry about how this business will continue and survive with lower prices. One day some men come to the shop and talk about Jagan's decision to reduce the prices. He talks about how he wants everyone to be able to enjoy his food.
A bearded man takes an interest in his comments and they talk at length. Eventually, he offers to take Jagan to a secluded temple in the forest where he once worked under a religious artist he refers to as "the master." Jagan is initially hesistant but decides to take him up on his offer. They agree to go the following day.
