Solution
The correct options are B Farmlands C Granaries D Markets The first to emerge would be the farmlands, as the artisans would need to have food. The farmers would grow crops which would then be stored in granaries. The crops would be sold in markets for the consumption of the artisans. In this way a small town would grow around the temple. While flower stalls would also emerge, they would take awhile to come up as the flowers are used to offer worship to the deities in the temples.
