儈 is composed of the radical 人 (person) and 會 (gather). 會 depicts a covered container gathering minced meat together so it does not scatter, conveying the core sense of assembling or bringing disparate parts together. Thus, 儈 was formed to represent a person who brings buyers and sellers together—a broker or middleman.
