Usually, a market sounds crowded as a result of bargaining between the seller and the buyer. But in West Sumatra, there is a market that deals with sign language. That's why it's called a silent market.
Not by chatting, the deal is done by shaking hands under a sheet of cloth. They have a code using a finger that can show a certain nominal, ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars
