    yes, worse than seeing 1 woman cry is seeing 2 helpless women playing the role of abandoned orphans who need the money to survive. business will be thriving for sure!

    i wouldn't call that "evil". we're 2 helpless, innocent ladies living in a dangerous wulin society. if we can't use our brains, how is a girl to live?

    hmm...wy can join us! why must she be excluded from this operation...we need a hottie to make the business more successful and who better than wy (she can also cook for us)?

    and you're right...evil is the wrong word. the correct word is witty.

    yeah, i'm sure you can convince wy to be a part of our plans. there is plenty of profits to go around.

    of course, how can anyone look at us and say "evil". we're all

    I just thought of another great plan which I'll include in my shopping mall.

    I'll hire many famous watercolor painters and artists to travel around where the wulin events are and paint the fighting scenes and of the heroes, so the fans can purchase the paintings of their idols and charge them another 100 taels for the autograph of the heroes. The paintings will be selling like hot cakes.

    Of course, with all this money, I'll have to open an escort agency transporting all the valueable golds and silvers around.

    I will create a league similiar to NASCAR today except instead of cars, I'll use people. Think your lightness kungfu is the best? Prove it! And since gambling wasn't as regulated back then, I'll be the house and rake in all the money. Hell, I'll even sponsor off section of the racer's clothes.
    I would love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code.

    I will start a wuxia forum/news etc for all the wulin people. People can exchange news, ideas and trade items etc. The forum will be free for the wulin readers, but advertising will be paid by you lot - coffins, insurances, restaurants, chefs, weaponary, medicine, postcards, crying (patricia asking for donations).

    Can't believe nobody has mentioned pr0n yet. Considering how deprived they were in those days (WXB had a copy and even the insanely rich ministers went nuts at it) I'd be rolling in money in no time. Then of course I'd have to hire top fighters to protect my curvy arse.

    Males have no place in pr0n, mate. At least not the kind of pr0n biz I'd be running. I hate stinking hairy males.

    The best business in wulin is to learn top martial arts yourself. Look at some of the rich but with no-martial arts type of people in wuxia. The work hard all their lives and one day, some kung fu crazy turns up and you lose everything.

    I think I'd open a print shop and start printing up copies of martial arts manuals. People like West Poison Au Yeung Fung and Dong Fong But Bai would never need to kill anybody again trying to steal the 9 Yum Jen Ging or the Qwai Fa Bo Deen. They could just get copies of the book from my print shop.
    You'd better be a top martial artist or else nobody would buy your manuals. They would just take it from you. Maybe kill you too, so you won't be able to distribute any more to other people.
