A long time ago, someone put up a canopy over their fortune telling booth and created the first shop. This store was fortune-based, but since then lots of different stores have popped up!

Picture the very first store in history. A fortune teller decided enough was enough, they should be in some kind of structure where it's safe, official looking, and more permanent.

Mnemonic

This shop quickly turned into ten (てん) shops! It was a good idea, after all, so all of the other people selling goods and services decided to copy it and create their own shops. The next day there were ten more.

Picture ten shops, all made up of someone selling something under a canopy. The first one is the fortune teller, but the nine others are whatever you want them to be!
