I set up a shelter organization

Chapter 598 I Won’t Be Willing to Be Underdog

The three were invited by the old butler to a room in the manor.

"This is the guest room we have arranged for you. Please stay here, my distinguished guests. I'm sure the master would like to spend some time with you."

"The banquet will begin in thirty minutes. Don't forget to attend. If you don't know where the banquet is, there are servants outside. Call them and they will lead the way."

The old butler still needs to take care of the specific matters of the banquet.

After taking them to a resting place, they left soon.

“There’s something wrong with that painting.”

As soon as the old butler left, Tan Zhi couldn't wait to speak.

Slack nodded: "Indeed."

"You feel it too?"

Tan Zhi: "Although I don't know much about painting, do you think that Clo's painting skills have changed a lot?"

"I feel like a completely different person. Can time really change a person so drastically?"

Slack: “Maybe. When I first painted it, I could feel warmth, brightness and hope from it.”

“He loves painting for its own sake.”

“In my later paintings, although my painting skills gradually improved, my love for the paintings gradually faded, and my use of colors also changed from bright to dark.”

Tanzhi glanced outside the door.

Perhaps because of today's banquet, the people in the manor are indeed very busy.

It’s such a big manor, but there are very few servants outside.

For these tricksters, it is very easy to avoid the eyes and ears of these servants.

"Come on, let's go look at the painting again."

The three of them avoided the sight of the two servants and returned to the corridor.

Tanzhi didn't say anything and just went straight to work, trying to take the painting down.

If you want to know if it is a work of art belonging to Clo, just try it and you will find out.

He also wanted to know, besides this painting being considered Cloe's artwork, would other paintings also be considered?

If that counts, wouldn't they be able to easily complete the clearance requirement of collecting ten artworks?

Greed and attachment put their hand on the picture frame and want to take it down.

But, the moment his hand touched the frame.

He was completely absorbed by the painting.

Laziness was startled and grabbed Tanzhi's clothes without thinking, and he was also sucked in.

The patient looked at a label under the painting, which had the name of the painting on it: The Eye in the Painting.

This painting does not clearly show any pair of eyes, but looking at the details in the painting, the theme of eyes is revealed everywhere.

Moreover, standing in front of this painting and looking at it for a long time will give you the illusion that you are in darkness and are being watched silently by countless eyes hidden in the darkness.

This is probably why this painting is so valuable.

The painter's emotions have been expressed to the audience through the painting, making the audience feel as if they are in the scene.

It is not easy to reach this level.

The fact that these ghost masters all had such an unusual feeling meant that there was something wrong with the painting.

I looked at the painting quietly.

The prying eyes became more and more obvious.

Bing reached out his hand and touched the painting, and soon he was also sucked into the painting.

……

Greed and laziness have come to one place.

This is still a manor.

However, it was actually daytime in the manor now.

"master."

A butler who looked younger than a teenager appeared before them.

And a middle-aged man with a big belly, dressed in luxurious clothes, holding a cane in his hand, wearing a bowler hat and a small mustache.

Standing at the gate of the manor.

"Butler, I'm going out for a banquet. Please keep an eye on Clo these days and make sure he learns more knowledge and doesn't fall behind in aristocratic etiquette."

"The future of our family depends on him."

"Yes, sir, I will definitely take good care of the young master."

The butler watched him leave.

Tanzhi saw that they seemed unable to see him, and he knew that perhaps they were just watching Clo's past.

The butler returned to the manor.

Tanzhi and others followed.

This was also the first time they really saw Clo as a person.

Chloe is only eleven or twelve years old now.

There was a coldness and maturity on his face that was not in line with his age.

There was an easel in front of him, and at this time, the colors he used were already darker.

"Master, do you want to take a break?"

The housekeeper said with a distressed look on his face.

Clo shook his head. "Father said I had to finish at least ten paintings before he came back. Those people really liked my paintings, and many wanted to buy them."

"Father also said that our family depends on me. If I can't paint well and disappoint those nobles, then our family will not have a good life."

The butler felt relieved and a little distressed when he saw that Clo was so sensible at such a young age.

In fact, before Cloe showed his talent, hadn't their family always been living this way?

Although he was just a master, he always cared about his identity as a businessman and wanted to be promoted to a nobleman through various channels.

And those nobles were the most xenophobic. No matter how hard the master tried, those nobles just laughed at his arrogance. How could a lowly merchant become a noble?

The master was also possessed and tried like a madman to please those nobles.

After Master Clo was born and revealed his talent.

The master set his sights on him.

Clo was born with a very good appearance. He took after his mother, looking handsome and delicate, the type that noble ladies liked very much.

If Clo has talent, coupled with his looks, he can be well trained in the future.

It is not impossible to marry a noble lady, obtain a title, and become a member of the nobility.

"The master may not be back for ten days this time. Young Master, you don't need to be so anxious. You haven't had a day's rest yet."

Upon hearing this, Cloe took up his pen and continued to add colors to the painting.

"it does not matter."

Tanzhi looked at Clo, who now had his eyes lowered, looking somewhat disappointed, but more of a coldness in his eyes.

It seems that his inner thoughts are inconsistent with what he expresses.

Would such a young child disguise himself in front of the elders who grew up with him, who care about him and take care of him?

He is so terrifying at such a young age.

Greedy: "Tell me, is he a psychopath?"

"Being forced to perform at such a young age, it's not impossible that over time, his psychology would be twisted and he would eventually become a murderous lunatic."

Slack: "He has great talent. It would be great if he could become one of us."

Tan Zhi spread his hands and said, "The five major cadres are already here, and Jiunan's position is not vacant. If we recruit him, will we let him be an ordinary member?"

"People with their own personalities and ideas probably wouldn't be willing to be inferior to others."

If it were him, he wouldn't be willing either.
