Inside the "Photography Studio," Ma Qiu painfully paid one silver coin and twenty copper coins—this was quite an expensive fee, even more than what Lady Jianna charged, almost enough to have dinner with Lady Julia.
No matter the cost, after paying the money, Ma Qiu earned the qualification to stand in front of a strange contraption.
In front of a device with a triangular stand, Ma Qiu tried hard to open his eyes wide, and as instructed by someone nearby, he displayed what he thought was his brightest smile, diligently maintaining it for three seconds.

With a dazzling flash of light, Ma Qiu completed this expensive expenditure and was told to come back in three days to collect the photo.
