Self-service markets Guangxi-style

Villagers pay for vegetables in a self-service market in Luofeng village in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, on Oct 22, 2012. Self-service markets have existed here for more than a century and similar markets have appeared in nearby villages and cities, including Nanning, Liuzhou, Shanglin, Hengxian, Lingshan, Tengxian. Stand owners do not have to watch their produce and customers pay for the goods honestly. The self-service markets help residents as well as the shop owners. [Photo/Xinhua]
