Things are going bad for the King of Chu (c). He opened a kitchen in the airplane (ai2), but his income in the first year was not enough so he had to donate a kidney from which the scar is widely visible (𢦏), also due to the fact that he had to sell all his clothing except for a kilt (衣) which he wears. It was not enough. One day, he actually gets fired (裁) from the airplane's king because he was costing the airplane so much money.
