He is wearing a long-sleeved shirt, a vest, and a tie. He is holding a tick in his hands with a pan attached to the left side and a weight on the right. In the pan are drugs. A large, light-colored cloth can be seen on the counter below the scale. Behind Wong, many wooden drawers and cabinets are visible.
