Success

Easy money

You obtain a case of fake cloisonne eggs, made by rat forgers. [...] Lovers make them, you say, in the Near East, as symbols of steadfastness. Their love will not fail until the egg is broken. Demand is high: [...] You sell out quickly.

Failure

Never trust a zailor

You purchase a crate of decorative figurines. [...] Sadly, the boxes turn out to contain cheap plaster parrots. No one wants a plaster parrot. [...] You have no choice but to refund their money. The disgrace clings.
