But if the $50 bill is on the ground of a market, for example, then I will to talk with the market chief. Is possible some person has lost it.

This sentence structure is a little awkward. When you start sentences with "imagine," the rest of the sentence is usually in second person (you/your). However, the rest of your paragraph is in first person (I/me), so it does not match. I edited it to be grammatically correct, but I would suggest removing this sentence and adding "If I found a $50 bill on the ground," to the beginning of the next sentence.
When talking about indoors, it is the floor. When outdoors, it is the ground.
I catch itwould pick it up, of course, and youI would check that nobody is looking for it.
Because you're talking in hypothetical, you should use imperfect subjunctive and conditional tense.
This is similar to "Si encontrara [imperfect subjunctive] un billete de cincuenta dólares, lo recogería [conditional]"
After to check iting, the bill willould go straight into themy pocket.
But if the $50 bill iwas on the ground of a market, for example, then I will toould talk with the market chiefowner.
Ist would be possible some persthat someone hasd lost it.

Nice job! This prompt asks you to use an unusual mood and tense, and I hope my attempt at clarifying with Spanish helps.
