More mines will be purchased. I made my fortune from iron, after all, not from spices.
A friend of mine has brought me two exotic songbirds, a male and a female. They are already mocking my voice. The painter loves their feathers. The male loves the painter's cookies.
I am worried about the painter, she is not exactly well. When I saw her today, her eyes were still red from crying. I wish I could help her, but there is not much I can do.
But she then made a sketch of me with a pair of large breasts. We must have cheered her up.
I should find a name for the female songbird. Will she lay eggs? Will there be an invasion of exotic songbirds?
More mines. That will drain much of my wealth, but hopefully coin will flow back to me. I will not spend all. Just in case. If it goes all to waste, I will have my farmland and live with it. Dull, but viable.
