Under such circumstances, there are very few people who would not be tempted by such a rough draft of a portrait.
As a result, Cheng Liuli's business was booming. In a short time, she herself, like the pigeons with red beaks and white feathers strolling leisurely in the square, became a unique scenery in the green square.
A portrait cost thirty yuan, and the most she painted on a single day was twenty. From dawn in the morning until dusk fell, she had almost no time to eat or drink. When she returned home at night, she counted, wow
, plus the tips from customers, she earned a total of 750 yuan for the whole day!
Although such a small amount of money was nothing to her in the past years, and she could not even afford a pair of better gloves, but now, this money is simply life-saving money that she relies on to survive!

The singing was beautiful and she played the guitar well. It was the rush hour after get off work, and many passers-by couldn't help but stop and listen. However, the coins thrown into the cardboard box in front of the girl were very few.
Cheng Liuli shook her head. She was also a fallen person in Tianya, so she could understand this girl's embarrassment and helplessness.
