Generate for me a description of a patriotic scene outside a town market with crates, a plaque, an auction list, and goods.
assistant
The tent is made of durable off-white canvas, secured by heavy ropes and nine large metal poles. Lanterns hang from small hooks on each pole, making the room bright enough to examine all the goods being sold. An auction table sits on a platform fashioned out of crates, while boxes and barrels of merchandise hug the walls. Screwed into the central pole is a metal plaque upon which rests the auction list.
