Which sentence in this excerpt from James Joyce's "Araby" indicates that the bazaar is a place devoted to avarice, or greed?
I could not find any sixpenny entrance and, fearing that the bazaar would be closed, I passed in quickly through a turnstile, handing a shilling to
a weary-looking man. I found myself in a big hall girded at half its height by a gallery. Nearly all the stalls were closed and the greater part of the
hall was in darkness. I recognized a silence like that which pervades a church after a service. I walked into the centre of the bazaar timidly. A
few people were gathered about the stalls whith were still open. Before a curtain, over which the words Café Chantant were written in coloured
lamps, two men were counting money on a salver. I listened to the fall of the coins.
