Sarge: and if you look more carefully this man is saying only ONE at a time.

some14 - Or, he could be saying "Ichiman yen."

rjd-jr, why is it a great shot? would be as great if they were four old ladies? would it be as great if they were all gaijin? would it be as great if they all were disgustingly ugly? if they were all in wheelchairs? just wondering why you think its a great shot...

No matter what, after all the negotiations, someone's got to pay!!!

"It'll only take one minute. I'm a pretty good driver."

It would be a great shot if the student with her hand to her mouth stifling a giggle were in focus, too, rather than the back of the head of the student standing next to the rickshaw driver.
Now we need to know if the driver was successful or not.

The person who provided this photo (smileon) above: Thanks a lot Peter Michailidis! You made my day.
About the girl who puts her hand before her face. She must be thinking something. And she is not only covering her mouth, he also touches her nose. So maybe she notices something.
How do we know, a rickshaw driver negotiates with schoolgirls in Asakusa? The picture does not show a rickshaw. So he might negotiate with the girls about a price. If it is a riskshaw ride, there is not enough space for all 5 girls. And, let's face it, he has to pull hard when moving.

Ichi man for all 5 would be a good deal
Sarge at 10:58 PM JST - 7th June
thepro - Agreed! That's why I said he's probably saying "Ichiman."
