Reborn as a great painter, with a system, you can be willful

Chapter 169, Unexpected Gift, Opportunity

Jiang Zhe lay on the bed, staring at the system page.

The system is calculating this month's learning rewards.

The system quickly gave the result: the player’s learning accumulation this month reached excellent level, and the reward funds were 83000 yuan.

Tip: There are two funding sources to choose from: lottery and selling paintings.

Jiang Zhe directly chose to sell his paintings.

The system gives a new prompt: Players please wait patiently.

Jiang Zhe didn't quite understand. Now, he didn't have many paintings waiting to be sold outside. It seemed that there were only the works for the exhibition and a few paintings in Wang Zhen's hands. However, Wang Zhen had already gone to the provincial capital to arrange the art exhibition.

He couldn't think of where else he could cash it out.

If you can’t figure it out, just stop thinking about it.

He fell asleep with anticipation.

School classes continued as usual and the life sketching class entered its fourth day.

As the weather gets colder, the autumn scenery becomes more and more beautiful, and Jiang Zhe becomes more and more adept at landscape sketching.

During the sketching process, he strives to ensure that the form of each work will not be repeated.

Professor Qin highly appreciates this creative attitude.

On the evening of the fourth day, the sketching course ended and everyone took a bus back to school.

Because he had to take his homework to the studio, Jiang Zhe took the bus with everyone else.

Most of the people on the bus heading towards the school are students.

Jiang Zhe saw Lan Xin also sitting in the car. Due to the distance, the two of them only greeted each other with their glances.

After arriving at school, Jiang Zhe went to the studio to hand in his homework first, and then prepared to have dinner. Just as he walked near the cafeteria, he saw Lan Xin wandering in the flower bed not far away.

Lan Xin saw Jiang Zhe coming and waved hurriedly.

Jiang Zhe guessed that she might have something wrong, so he walked over and asked, "Lan Xin, what's the matter?"

Lan Xin took out a paper tube from her backpack and handed it to Jiang Zhe. "Well, I drew a picture. Please help me pick out the problems. If you like it, keep it. If not, I'll draw another one. I don't have any other intentions. I just want you to help me look at the picture."

Jiang Zhe looked at the paper roll with interest, then looked at Lan Xin and asked, "Is this a gift?"

"No. Goodbye." Lan Xin ran away in a hurry.

Jiang Zhe held the paper tube and said thank you to Lan Xin.

Lan Xin quickened her pace.

Jiang Zhe guessed what Lan Xin had drawn. He couldn't go to the cafeteria because he had a paper tube. He went back to his dormitory first and saw Du Xin and the other two cleaning.

He put the things down and asked, "What happened?"

"Don't mention it. Last night, I heard the sound of a mouse." Shao Hui said.

Jiang Zhe hurriedly checked his belongings. He didn't rest in the dormitory last night, so he didn't want his belongings to be damaged.

He checked his belongings and found no signs of bites, so he and his roommate cleaned up.

"Are you sure it was the rat?"

Shao Hui had a strange expression on his face: "That thing was jumping around in my cardboard box. It was so annoying. It was like it was crazy. I didn't dare to catch it. I scared it a few times and it became quiet. When I fell asleep, it started to make trouble again."

Several people were cleaning the house but didn't find any rat, so they discussed what to do.

Jiang Zhe asked, "Can you accept raising a cat?"

"acceptable."

"The dormitory manager will not agree."

"Where to find a cat?"

All three roommates said they could accept it.

"Let's give it a try." Jiang Zhe already had a plan.

……

Chen Yan and Jiang Zhe ate together in the cafeteria. They wanted to go for a walk as usual, but Jiang Zhe said he had other plans for today.

"What's the matter?" "I'm going to find a cat." He explained the reason for looking for a cat and pulled Chen Yan to the path behind the cafeteria.

"Many cats can't catch mice nowadays. You might as well go buy some medicine."

Jiang Zhe said: "If the rat poison kills and stinks in the house, it will be troublesome."

"Ugh—that's disgusting."

The path behind the cafeteria leads to the basketball court, the sports equipment room, and a flower bed.

There were several cats lying on the cement platform of the flower bed.

The biggest one is a white cat, and there are two calico cats and a black cat.

Jiang Zhe stared at the black cat and went to find the physical education teacher.

He was quite familiar with the physical education teacher and knew that the cafeteria staff and the physical education teacher often fed several cats nearby.

He found the physical education teacher and told him about his situation.

The teacher readily agreed: "You can take a cat home. If you don't want to keep it anymore, just return it and leave it here. Be careful not to get bitten."

"Thank you, don't worry."

Jiang Zhe came out of the equipment room and saw several cats still lying there.

He put on gloves and told Chen Yan how to cooperate.

Although I knew that these cats were fed by humans and were different from wild cats, I was still on guard.

The cat becomes alert when he comes near.

Jiang Zhe suddenly accelerated and approached the black cat.

The black cat suddenly jumped off the flower bed and ran towards the cafeteria.

Chen Yan suddenly flashed out from the front. The black cat paused for a moment. Jiang Zhe had caught up and stomped his feet on the ground, making a noise.

The black cat was frightened and rolled to the side with its belly facing the sky, not daring to move.

Jiang Zhe hurriedly grabbed the back of his neck and lifted him up.

Looking closely, the cat has white fur on all four paws, is slender and graceful, and very heavy.

Jiang Zhe held the cat and didn't dare to let go. He walked all the way back to the dormitory, and Chen Yan helped him cover.

When the three roommates saw Jiang Zhezhen bringing back a cat, they hurriedly closed the doors and windows to prevent the black cat from escaping.

Jiang Zhe took out a washbasin and used it as a nest for the black cat.

The black cat was put into the basin. Looking at the people who were staring at it hungrily, it didn't dare to run away and felt a little anxious.

Jiang Zhe took out some meat he had brought back, prepared some clean water for it, and then went to find the administrator.

When no one was paying attention, I quietly slipped a pack of cigarettes into the man's pocket and briefly explained my situation, and the deal was done.

He first sent Chen Yan back to the dormitory. After returning to his own dormitory, the three roommates were worried that the black cat had fleas, so they decided to give it a bath together.

After a busy time, the black cat was cleaned and the four of them were exhausted.

Jiang Zhe breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the black cat lying in the basin and starting to sleep.

The three roommates didn't expect the black cat to catch mice, as long as it could drive them away.

Jiang Zhe washed up and opened the paper tube that Lan Xin gave him.

There was a roll of white rice paper inside. After unfolding it, I found that the person drawn on the paper was actually him.

He spread the paper flat and looked at it carefully.

The angle of the picture should be the front view of Jiang Zhe's sketching. The oil painting box and the stand are used as a foil, with simple outlines and no coloring.

The character that serves as the subject of the painting is outlined with lines and then filled in with color, with slight strokes on the facial features, hair and other parts.

Jiang Zhe thinks Lan Xin's grasp of the characters is quite accurate, and she has drawn out their own characteristics. The faces of the characters are rendered using the high-dye method, and the clothes are painted flat with gray and blue, with a clear distinction between the primary and secondary, and a flavor of traditional Chinese painting.

There is a line of small words in the upper right corner of the picture: To classmate Jiang Zhe Yazheng, and behind the signature Lan Xin, there is a small seal.

He looked at it carefully and found that the seal was not engraved but drawn with a small brush dipped in red paint.

While enjoying it, I suddenly heard a system prompt: The player received a special gift, triggering a lottery.
