Making some money
Hello, are you there?
Let's continue
Chris walks down the streets of the marketplace
He checks his pocket and finds a satchel containing a few taels
Chris
Tch,how am I suppose to survive with such a little amount of money. The previous owner of this body must be so poor. I can't recall what his life was.
While he walked, he let the idea of the marketplace carry his thoughts away.
Chris
I need to find ways to make money.
Only after a few minutes after entering the centre of the marketplace, Chris had his attention caught by someone selling paper and ink.
He thought about it for a second and went over to the stand.
Vendor
Welcome young sir, those inks are of nice quality. ☺️
Vendor
Please give it a try😊
Chris
Okay. I need a set, few brushes and a lot of scrolls
Vendor
Alright sir,I'll get them for you.
Vendor
Only ten taels,sir ☺️
pulls out his satchel of taels,realises it was only nine
Chris
I only have nine taels..🥺
Vendor
It's alright, that will do.
Chris took the materials and began to walk through the marketplace.
After finding a right spot,he squats down on a thin blanket and places the material on the floor
He picks a brush and let his hand do the magic
Chris
*sigh* I'm finally done,time to start advertising
*stands up and hold one of the paintings for passersby to see*
Chris
Come have a look, paint for sale!! Have a look, paint for sale!!
Chris
Don't be shy,come take a look!
a large crowd gathers in no time to have a look
customer
I've never seen anything like this,what do you call it?
customer ll
I want one too
and so,Chris sold all his paintings except one
Chris
I'm so blessed, the heavens must've been on my side today! 😂
Chris
Earned fifty taels in such a short time,I can finally earn.
Chris
*sob* Mom,dad, your son can earn now.
Chris
I'm sorry, this one is not for sale. I'm out of business now.
*whispers to another man. Later comes back*
Klaus
I'll pay you a hundred taels for it. What do you say?
Chris
Thank you,it was nice doing business with you.
Klaus
Hmm. What a gold digger.
Chris
I'm so rich,hurray!!
Chris
Time to find a restaurant, I'm so hungry.
Chris
Money,money, money.
Is not funny,in a rich man's word 🎶
packs up his material and sets to find an inn
*somewhere around the marketplace *
Klaus
Master,I've brought the painting
Robert (P.Minister)
Good,let's go.
Destination : Imperial Palace
Courts officials discussing about state affairs
A man in black and purple robes appears
Robert (P.Minister)
*bows down* Greetings your majesty
King Leo
Prime Minister Rob, why are you late for court today?
Robert (P.Minister)
I was passing by at the marketplace when my servant reported that a strange painting has been circulating around the city.
Robert (P.Minister)
I stopped by to take a look. I bought the painting with me.
hands it to the head eunuch
delivers it to his majesty
Robert (P.Minister)
Is it just my eyes or did his majesty just smirk?😳
King Leo
ehem,what is this?
Robert (P.Minister)
The artist claimed that it was called a FACE MEME. I've never seen anything like this in my entire life,your majesty.
King Leo
*nods* good,good.
Officials: Yes,your Majesty.
everyone left except Prime Minister
Robert (P.Minister)
Your majesty, it's been a while since I saw your lips twitched.
King Leo
Really? It has been a while.😐
King Leo
Summon the artist tonight.
Robert (P.Minister)
Yes,your majesty.
King Leo
You also deserve an award,Robert.
Robert (P.Minister)
Thank you,your Majesty.
and so the two discussed about state affairs.
Chris
