沽
buy, sell
沽 is composed of the radical 水 (water) and 古 (ancient). 古 signifies age, extending to represent long-term accumulation or storage. Just as accumulated water overflows and naturally flows to where it is needed, goods accumulated over time flow and circulate to facilitate exchange in economic trade; thus, 沽 was formed to represent buying, selling, or trading.
