One of them is the business idea of ​​making street food and snacks, two of them were created by our dear @max-pro brother, this topic is very beautiful, because we see many small businessmen on the side of the road, who find a little and do small businesses on the side of the road, we need to know their life stories, because they fight with life and run these small businesses.

Doing business is basically a good thing, doing business means working independently, and working means working under someone else, there is a different kind of freedom and a different kind of peace in business, that is why it is said that doing business is Sunnah in our Islam, 80% of people's livelihood is kept in business, and 20% in everything else.

Of course, everyone needs to do business with honesty and trustworthiness, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said that the resurrection of the trustworthy and truthful businessman will be with the Prophets, Messengers, truthful people and martyrs, if you do business correctly, it is very possible to improve that business, and people benefit more from business, there is freedom in business.

The shopkeeper is making jhalmuri.

We see small traders on the roadside, who sell various food items with a small shop on the road, sometimes a small tea shop on the side of the road, sometimes they sell delicious fried parathas, boots, chanachur, jhalmuri and many other delicious foods on the side of the road, small food stalls on the side of the road were usually seen more in the city level, but now these small food stalls can be seen in various village markets.

Every morning a market is held in our village, in that market every morning and afternoon a person from our village sells jhalmuri, the owner of that jhalmuri shop lives in our village, we buy jhalmuri from him every day, he has already become famous in our area, everyone knows his shop as Musa Bhai's jhalmuri, people from far away come to our village's Golap Bazar to eat his jhalmuri.

Turnover	Chillies have been cut for jhalmuri.

A long time ago, this Musa Bhai from our village fell into financial crisis, his family was running with great difficulty, due to financial crisis he could not send his children to study further, his children were forced to start working in a garment factory in Dhaka, one day he also went to visit his son in Dhaka, there a man was selling jhalmuri in front of the house where his son lives, basically our Musa Bhai learned to make jhalmuri from that man in Dhaka.

After watching that man selling jhalmuri from Dhaka for a few days, and got an idea about all the spices and equipment for making jhalmuri from him, he got an idea about the business from him and after consulting with him, he decided to start a business when he came home, after some time he learned how to make jhalmuri and sell jhalmuri there and came home and started this business.

Stuffing for Jhalmuri

At first, he started his business with only a small table with muri, chanachur, spices for making jhalmuri and onion and chilli, after doing business for a day, he bought a small van for the jhalmuri person, built a small house on this van, currently he sells jhalmuri in different places with the house of that van, he sells jhalmuri in front of our village high school during school hours, he sells jhalmuri in our village's Golap Bazar every morning and from 4 pm to 10 pm.

Different types of street food are available in our area, especially in this small market of our village, there are a few tea stalls, many people sit at these stalls and have tea, two jhalmuri vendors sit with their small shops on both sides of this market, they sell jhalmuri from their shop in the morning and afternoon, of these two, Musa Bhai's jhalmuri has become more famous. A plate of jhalmuri costs ten taka.
