I am GSD, a sword that explodes stars

Chapter 23 Aesthetics
Alvin strolled around the front street of Sgri and saw some dojos, including two swordsman dojos.

However, he did not go in to investigate in detail, because he could use his [mind's eye] to see through the layers of cover on the house and see some of the features inside.

Alvin discovered that their swordsmanship followed the magic sword school, which was more about being proficient in enchanting swords than being proficient in swordsmanship.

The other dojo practiced the light Wind Spirit Sword Technique. Their movements were graceful and their sword moves were as swift as the wind. They possessed impressive strength, but judging from their attainments in swordsmanship alone, they were full of flaws in his eyes.

He wanted to use the Sword Soul's Rei-Ghost Sword Technique as a guide to temporarily establish a dojo for the general public in the Sgri area, and it seemed that there would be no problem.

As for Devil May Cry's Ghost Shadow Sword, Asura's Wave Sword, and Berserker's Blood Sword.

Until he was powerful enough to bestow the Curse of Kazan upon certain people, he couldn't teach them even if he wanted to.

Among them, there is the Asura who uses some means to make himself temporarily blind in order to sense the fluctuations in the darkness. It seems that everyone can practice it, but not everyone can do it.

Not to mention the Berserker and Devil May Cry, only those who bear the curse and blessing of ghosts and gods, and have a strong will built up in a desperate situation, and have an urgent belief in change in their hearts, can turn into the dawn of light pointing directly to the path of cultivation.

Alvin walked around and didn't meet anyone special. When he saw that the sun was about to set, he started to walk back.

When he returned to the tavern, the sky had begun to darken and was dotted with starlight.

"You are really punctual. You said you would come back in the evening, not earlier."

"Where have you been looking these past few hours?"

Sosia had already found an architect at this time, and when she found out that Ivan had returned, she spoke to him in a teasing tone.

"I went to the front street to see the church of the Church of Light and some dojos of other sects."

Ivan said casually after hearing this.

"You didn't go to the West Coast?"

"The sea view over there is amazing, and there are nobles, alchemists, magic merchants, and various guilds selling things, which is more suitable for practitioners like us."

“If you want to make money, it’s best to go there.”

Sosia thought Alvin would run to the West Coast first.

This is also the first choice for most outsiders when they arrive in the Sgri area. Even she could not escape this rule back then.

Whenever you arrive in a bustling city, your first choice is of course to look for places where like-minded people gather.

You can quickly learn a lot of information and perhaps buy some unexpected items.

"I originally wanted to walk all the way there and take a look, but unfortunately you didn't let me get back on time, so I'll wait until tomorrow."

Hearing this, Alvin spread his hands and walked towards the wine table in the middle while speaking.

The Moonlight Tavern hasn't opened yet, so the only person in the tavern besides Sosia is obviously the builder.

"Hello, Mr. Ivan, my name is Lawless, and I have talked to Miss Sosia."

"I wonder what style of housing and dojo you want to build?"

Architect Lawless is a bald middle-aged man with a very strong build. He wears a white vest, trousers and long boots. His big white teeth show a mouthful of white teeth, which makes people feel good at first sight and think that he is an honest person.

“Do you have a sample diagram of the construction?”

Hearing this, Alvin came to the table and sat down.

"some."

Although Lawless found that Ivan's appearance was a little strange and he seemed to be unable to see anything with his eyes blindfolded, he did not think that the other party was really blind.

There are many powerful people in this world, and each has their own way of practicing.

So he immediately took out a stack of drawings from his magic backpack.

Alvin picked up the drawings, opened them, and examined them carefully.

When Lawrs saw Ivan's appearance, although he thought that the other party should be able to see it, he still felt it was a little strange. After all, who can see things with their eyes blindfolded?

Ivan found that these architectural examples were basically wooden houses or stone buildings from the Middle Ages in the West. They looked pretty good, but they didn't completely fit his aesthetic. "Are there any architectural drawings of the City of Heaven?"

After flipping through a dozen cards, Alvin asked.

He had heard from Sally Lan that he looked very much like someone from Tianzhidu.

When he looked at Feng Lei just now, he felt that the other party was also very similar to the Oriental man in his previous life.

"Of course there are, but there are fewer customers who need this style of architecture, so there are fewer example drawings."

Upon hearing this, architect Lawless rummaged through his magic backpack again and took out four cards.

Ivan took it and started reading it.

"The house should be built according to this picture. For the dojo, the overall orientation should be built according to this picture."

"It covers an area of ​​1,000 square meters,"

"The style of the dojo's decoration should include three oriental dragons of the Celestial Capital painted at the entrance, and the overall style should be grand and simple."

"And except for some land in the yard, the main building materials are made of wood."

“The roof tiles and other materials must be made of red tiles.

"The house should face north and south, and be located two hundred meters behind the tavern."

After looking at the sample picture, Alvin explained his needs.

"Okay, I've already looked at the back mountain. When we build it, some of the building materials can be sourced locally."

"After deducting some expenses, I calculated that it still requires 238000 gold coins."

"You need to pay half of the gold coins in advance, and the rest can be settled after the project is completed."

"You need to pay 119000 gold coins."

After hearing all these requirements, the architect Rowles wrote them down with a magic pen, estimated some approximate materials and labor costs, and then spoke.

In the Sgri area, land is extremely valuable, but the price of building a house is not that expensive.

But if he gets some big clients, he can still make a lot of money, and Ivan is obviously a big client.

Ivan didn't waste any words when he heard this. He took out a big money bag and an empty big bag. With a move of his right hand, a burst of magic power was released, and gold coins flew out one by one.
The gold coins made a tinkling sound as they collided. In just over ten seconds, hundreds of thousands of gold coins had been put into another bag.

"Here is 119000 gold coins."

"I'll settle the remaining amount with you as soon as it's completed and I'm satisfied."

Ivan pushed one of the small bags, causing it to slide a distance on the table and directly in front of Lawless.

"Okay, I'll start working at eight tomorrow morning."

"According to your special requirements for the house, it is expected to take five days to complete."

"My craftsmanship and efficiency will never disappoint you."

After a brief conversation, Lawless knew that Mr. Irving was a practical man who didn't care about all the fancy business tricks.

As long as he can do it well, he can get the subsequent balance on the same day.

Although carving the oriental dragon sculpture of Tianzhidu required more sophisticated craftsmanship, he needed to read some books before he could carve it carefully, but to make money, he always had to put in more effort.

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."

When Alvin heard that the construction period was extended by two days, he didn't care.

Anyway, he can stay in Sosia's tavern for three days or five days, and he will definitely pay Sosia a reasonable accommodation fee.
