I couldnt help overhearing the conversation between the storekeeper Miller and the boy. “Hello, Mr. Miller. Just admiring the peas. They sure look good.” “Would you like to take some home？” asked Miller. “No, Sir. Got nothing to pay for them with.” “Well, what have you to trade me for some of those peas？” “All I got is my prize marble (弹珠) here.” “Is that right? Let me see it，” said Miller. “Here it is.
