Thanks for saying so! I think merchandise can affect state of a person, because, considering this man, I wouldn't say he has much of a business except for the sale during the season. The rest of the time, he is probably earning elsewhere. What brings him back to monotnously continue without change is maybe the returns of the business on that street in that season.
