Advertisement
It was already two days since Hong Jia Yi arrived, he was now taking a stroll through the village things didn't seem to change much, people where now peaking out at Hong Jia Yi who were strolling with the three servants.
"Out! Out! You greedy little Theif!" An old daddy yelled from a distance
Hong Jia Yi looked up to see an family old daddy throwing a little boy out a baby to be precise, the baby looked around 1 or 2 he was very skinny dirty and looked as though been starved and the way that old daddy flung him outside like a piece of cloth.
Hong Jia Yi even with the large tummy infront him can't help but run up.
"Master don't!" Ru yelled worry
But it was too late Hong Jia Yi was already at the young child who was scrapped and cut, he then turned to the old daddy upset.
"His only a baby!" He said with clear disdain in his voice
"Hmph!, if you like him so much then why don't you take him" the old daddy said coldly
Hong Jia Yi was disgusted with the old daddy but simply turned to Guo.
"Go get the village chief, tell him to bring the papers and pen" Hong Jia Yi command,
Now that the old daddy saw the robes and richness in Hong Jia Yi's attire he grinned greedily.
"Oh and while your at it you should pay me for him" the old daddy said,
Hong Jia Yi eyes wide open as he took up the dirty baby, did this daddy really put a price on a child on a human being?. Since the Minister Liang slavery was abolished so to sell a person as property was truly a disgusting thing.
"It's not selling,it's for the adoption fees aren't you going to become his daddy?" The old daddy said picking his nose with his pinky.

Hong Jia Yi said nothing and simply nods.
"How much?" Hong Jia Yi asked
"10 gold ones"
"10-"
"Okay!" Hong Jia Yi cuts Yong off,
The servant only bit his lips and took out his poach as Guo arrived with the chief, the chief had the papers in hand and was ready to talk. Unlike the previous chief this new appointed chief was just and more understanding, he looked at the two nodding.
"Chief I want you to bare witness as I adopt this child" Hong Jia Yi said firmly, "in exchange I'll give him 10 gold for the adoption fees" Hong Jia Yi said
The chief almost lost his wits when he heard he even saw the terrible condition of the child yet he still would pay ten gold!, the chief didn't intervene and just laid down the details on both documents then the two bit there finger and used their finger prints to mark each documents. Now it was time for Hong Jia Yi to pay the money. The old daddy grinned as he saw Hong Jia Yi taking out the gold.
"For each copy of the documents 3 gold" Hong Jia Yi passed three gold to the chief,
The daddy's smiled immediately dropped.
"What is the meaning of this?!"
"Adoption fees this includes the documents of course" Hong Jia Yi said as if expected
Lmao Liang Meng Yao is very contagious
"Ah- give me my money!" The old daddy said unable to rebuke.
"Wait, wait, wait, for my son's injuries 6 gold"
"What! That's already 9 golds! And what injuries it's only stratches!"
"But look at how skinny and pitiful he is not to mention his tummy is growling so badly I'm afraid there might be worms, isn't it highly recommended to get an expensive doctor so 6 gold it"

"Eh- you- I take it back don't adopt him I want my grandchild!"
"But uncle you've already agreed and signed the papers the chief is here to bare witness, there is no taking back you signed the papers without force" Hong Jia Yi lectures.
I swear this is not my Jiajia Yaoyao! Show yourself now! Stop pretending to be my Jiajia
The old daddy was stunned silent and the servants smiled at the corner of their lips as expected of their Liang Fei!, the old daddy only groaned in anger.
"Give me my gold!"
He stretched out hand angrily Hong Jia Yi gently placed a copper inside it at this point the daddy was angry and ready to attack when Yong immediately cuts it and pushed him away. The old daddy fell to the ground and hit his hip.

The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
