When I was young, there was a market near my hometown. On a certain day, many vendors and people went to the market. It was a sea of people. At that time, our children were happiest, because there were many interesting and delicious things. Now there are few such markets. The reasons are as follows.

The first is the impact of modern online shopping on physical shopping. In the past, when I went to the market, most of the goods were very cheap, so there were many people. Many vendors earned a year's living expenses through several parties this year. However, due to the convenience of online shopping and the low price of online shopping items, many people choose to buy what they need online, which also causes no one to squeeze into the crowded market when they go to the market. It is very convenient to buy directly through mobile phone.

Secondly, the price of a single mage is not very high, and many manufacturers can live on it. However, with the price rising, manufacturers are slowly giving up this road and looking for a new way of life, not to mention how the market survives, when they lose the market and their profits decrease.

Another point is that the rural population is relatively small now, and many people have gone to cities to make a living. In rural areas, it is generally the elderly and left-behind children, while young adults are not in rural areas, so there are not so many people to join in the fun in the market, which means the loss of tourists.

Finally, the disappearance of the market is an inevitable situation of the progress of the times. The impact of emerging industries on traditional industries is enormous. The slow market has become our memory. I still remember that the primary school teacher had a special holiday to let us go to the market. After all, it is a memory.
