Spending the Villain’s Money to Extend My Life Chapter 67 - That probably wouldn’t even cover the shipping cost

Chapter 67 – That probably wouldn’t even cover the shipping cost

“Siyi told me already. Whatever it is you need sent, just give them to me and I will take care of them. Anywhere in this city will be delivered in the same day,” said the butler.
“Is it SF Express?”
Gu Shishi paused for a second.
“Miss Gu, we have our own workers here. All you need to do is to provide us with the address.”
“Oh, oh, oh.”
What is SF Express in the world of the wealthy?
“Okay. Mainly I will be mailing paintings. Sometimes I might have them framed first, so they will be fragile and a bit bulky.”
“Don’t worry. Our men are all professionals.” Nodded Butler Lin.
“Okay~ Thank you, Butler Lin!” Gu Shishi let out a sigh of relief......
If she had to look for delivering service herself, packaging would be a big issue.
Rolled-up paintings in a tube wouldn’t be bad, but a framed one could be very fragile.
Shipping was definitely a headache.
Now that that was taken care of, and there was still a whole hour before she had to leave for work, Gu Shishi happily returned to her room and turned on her streaming.
She changed her channel name to “I Paint So Well I Can Walk On Clouds”, a much more appealing name.
She could be as artsy as she wanted before, but now that she intended to sell her work, she needed to attract more traffic.
At the same time, she added another line.
“My work today will be given as a gift to one of my viewers.”
“Starting today, my work will be for sale. Look for ‘The Nerdy Painter” on Taobao.”
She had registered for a store on Taobao during breakfast, which was coming in handy now.
After propping up her cellphone, she started stretching out her xuan painting paper and preparing her paint brushes.
“I will be doing a gongbi style painting today.
She finally has up to 5 fans after two streaming sessions.
But, she was so early today that most people were still asleep.
Gu Shishi thought about it for a bit and decided against switching to a different time. She exchanged the beginner’s skill and closed her eyes to get a feel of her concepts…
All she had done was free form style work in the past.
Free form style stressed the feel and the artistic conception instead of realistic details.
The system skill that allowed viewers to feel that they were in the painting apparently worked very well with free form style creations.
But gongbi, as opposed to free form, stressed on precision and meticulousness. Its goal was realism.
She wondered how well the system’s cheat would work with gongbi style and whether it would still allow the viewers to experience the painting in person.
That’s what Gu Shishi wanted to find out today.
Quickly, she closed her eyes. Her brow furrowed.
Her body was absorbed into a whole different dimension.
When she opened her eyes again, only a few seconds had passed, but it had already experienced an hour’s time.
She picked up a pointing paint brush made of weasel bristle and her face had a concentration that had never been seen before. She dipped the brush into the ink and agilely applied her brush on the shuxuan painting paper.
A circle in one stroke followed by a dot.
The line was smooth, clean, and flowed in one go.
She didn’t notice her first audience member in her channel.
[MeowMeow: Eh? Are those… eyes?]
[MeowMeow: You are giving it away for free? Can I sign up then?]
Gu Shishi was just about to switch to a different paint brush and happened to see it.
She smiled immediately and said, “MeowMeow? Sure. You can have it for free. The topic was perfect for your nickname. I am painting a cat.”
[MeowMeow: Eh? Channel Master is going to draw a cat? Okay, I’ll wait right here!~]
[MeowMeow sent you 10 omamori.]
Each omamori was about $1, and she sent her 10 at once.
Gu Shishi smiled.
That probably wouldn’t even cover the shipping cost.
But that was her very first one, so that was alright.
