Ji Nianqin was completely stunned by this sudden good news, but the man and woman outside also lost their jobs.
"Will it be bad?"
Ji Nianqin was about to go out to see them, but was told by the magician that he had already kicked them out.
"I've wanted to fire them both for a long time because they don't conform to the common sense of magic. Some things, if they were to leak out, would ruin our magicians' lives. Just like just now, I wanted them to run around backstage, but they ended up going outside. This kind of mistake has happened more than once or twice, but I can't tolerate it all the time. People are not machines, and they lose their temper one day too."
The magician glanced at Ji Nianqin and asked her to sit on the sofa.
"Please introduce yourself."
"I just came here to take a look. I don't know how to change someone's appearance."
"You don't know? That doesn't matter, because now that you've found me, I'll make you my excellent deputy and give you a lot of money, but the prerequisite is that you sign an agreement."
The magician handed a blank material to Ji Nianqin. When Ji Nianqin saw it, she almost burst out laughing.
"A confidentiality agreement? How is that possible? There wasn't such a thing in ancient times. It's a complete waste of time. There's no such thing as a wall that's impenetrable. How could you do something and have no one else know about it? It's simply impossible."
Ji Nianqin handed the document back to the magician, still trying to hold back her laughter.
"Isn't that funny? Because you're going to get a huge sum of money, you need to sign a corresponding obligation. In other words, if you reveal the mechanism inside the magic prop to the outside world, you must pay compensation."
"You're not a magician? Why do you need props? Why don't you just do it yourself?"
"We are just ordinary people after all. Maybe we are just quicker."
"You mean, there are pickpockets among you who have switched to other professions?"
"I'm not sure about that. Anyway, I'm upright and have no blemishes. I hope you can respect me."
"You seem to have made a mistake. I don't want to be your assistant. I have plenty of money. I just want you to teach me how to change one person's face into another."
"That takes two people."
"Two people? Are we going to run around like this too?"
"Almost, but you've already signed a confidentiality agreement. So if you reveal our secrets to the outside world, I'm afraid the liquidated damages you'll have to pay will be more than the money I give your assistant."
"Do you really have to make me your assistant? But I just want to come to the modern world to study. I don't want to work long-term. Or maybe my mother is waiting for me in the ancient world. Her eyesight is not good. Can you think of a way to make my mother appear? Otherwise, just make her eyesight better."
"I can't promise you anything else, but since you asked me to make your mother appear, I can give it a try. So, write down the location of your mother's home, like that ancient pedestrian street, and I might be able to give you a surprise. You seem quite talented, and you seem to have a bright future as a magician. I can teach you some close-up magic tricks, like with playing cards."
"No, if I want to learn, I only want the large ones. If you can teach me, I can keep it a secret for you..."
