Going to the market is a folk custom. In the south, it is called "going to the market" or "going to the mountains". A market is a form of commodity trading activity that gathers regularly.

Detailed explanation of going to market:

In remote areas, there are certain places and dates for buying and selling goods. At that time, traders and residents rush to trade, which is called "going to market".

Horses, cattle, sheep, slaves and wives, as small as buckets of millet and feet of cloth, must gather on that day, which is called 'going to the market.' There are many markets in Yiyi, more than thirty of them are famous, and there are countless Yiji and small markets. It is easy to do business, but it is not convenient to go to the market. ""Lao Can's Travels" Chapter 19: "Every month on the 38th. People from dozens of miles away are going to the market."

Chapter 4 of "Railway Guerrilla" by Zhixia: "Qicun is a big town on Bali Road west of Zaozhuang. There is a big market today. All the farmers come here to go to the market."

There is an old saying in Hebei: "Business and trade are done at the market." There is some truth to this, but it is not complete.

The meeting is a "temple fair", which is what is often called a material exchange meeting today. Its content is that before wheat, the trading of farm tools such as rakes, rakes, and brooms is the main activity, and after autumn, the trading of large livestock such as cattle, horses, donkeys, and mules is the main activity. The duration of the meeting can be as little as one day, as long as three or five days, or even seven, eight days or half a month.
