Lord God Investigator

"The name of this magical statue is: 'Io, the one who looks at his lover from afar, the one who is immortal for ten thousand years'"

Luo Feng began his narration in a distant and mysterious tone: "The origin of this sculpture can be traced back to 2027 BC in the Valley, which has a history of nearly 3,300 years ago."

Quartalis made a thoughtful gesture and found the corresponding historical period from the distant history, and exclaimed: "It turns out to be an antique from the Golden Age of Netheril! No wonder the manufacturing process is so exquisite."

"This sculpture was originally a young man named Ai Ou. He fell in love with a female arcanist. The two were in love and were about to get married." Luo Feng continued to talk: "However, something unexpected happened. Wind and cloud, in 2027 BC in the Valley Era, there was a great flood in the city of memory where the two lovers lived!"

Quartalis has been engaged in antique and art trading for many years and has a good understanding of history. He thought: "Is it because of the flooding of the Changbo River? That was a major flood that stretched thousands of miles and lasted for more than ten years."

"Wise sir, you are indeed knowledgeable and well-informed. It was the flooding of the Changbo River that caused the great flood."

Luo Feng praised, and he went on to tell: "The young man named Ai Ou lives on a mountain called 'Tushan'. Tushan is very high, but he is not afraid of floods. His lover is a man who specializes in earth element magic." The Grand Arcanist. This girl is also an amazing person. She saw that the floods caused the destruction of cities, the forests and fields became marshes, and the people were displaced, so she determined to rely on her powerful magic power to control the floods. It is this female arcana The magician used the method of channeling and diversion to calm the floods in the Changbo River, allowing the residents of the Changbo River Basin to live in a peaceful paradise again."

"There is no record of this secret in the official history of Faerun, and it is not clear in the chronicles. After all, it happened more than three thousand years ago. It turns out that the Changbo River flood was so calm." Quartalis nodded repeatedly.

Luo Feng said: "In order to save the people affected by the flood, the female arcanist was busy day and night. She was always on the front line of the flood using earth magic to block the water flow. She passed by Ai Ou's house three times, and she also I didn’t go in to see Io.”

He sighed: "Io waited hard for thirteen years. He longed for his lover, but he couldn't wait. It turned out that his lover was overworked and fell asleep on the day the flood was successfully controlled, and passed away. And because of her achievements in controlling the great flood, she was spotted by Eddas, the goddess of water springs and peace, and was given the status of a chosen one. She entered the Temple of Nature and became a petitioner! The human world and the Kingdom of God were forever separated, and the two never met again. Chance."

Quartalis also sighed: "What a sad love story!"

Luo Feng said with tears in his eyes: "Ai Ou never gave up his infatuation for his lover. He continued to stand on the top of Tushan Mountain and looked into the distance, looking forward to one day seeing his lover who had become God's chosen one walking on the colorful clouds to get married. Give it to him, but he guessed the beginning but not the ending. He could never wait for that day. He prayed to the gods that he could wait another ten thousand years and never give up on true love!"

Quartalis was also moved and deeply moved by this infatuated young man.

Luo Feng continued to narrate in a sacred and solemn tone: "The fire-haired lady Shuni, the goddess of love and beauty, responded to his prayers and was deeply moved by the story of the lovers. She granted a miracle and fulfilled Io's wish. This young man's behavior was extremely consistent with the teachings of the God of Love: 'Believe in the sanctity of love, and believe that true love will eventually win.' So she turned Io into an immortal living sculpture, so that he would no longer be afraid of the erosion of time. , and finally waits for the lover he is looking forward to."

The three team members standing behind Luo Feng were eye-opening. Such a tattered mechanical body was actually praised as a god-given treasure in the captain's mouth, and he didn't know how many gold coins it would be sold for.

"Sunny, Goddess of Love!"

Quatarius hurriedly praised the name of the gods, and as a mortal must express awe when it comes to gods: "Are you going to put this god-given treasure in our store for consignment? To measure it with money is simply an insult to this treasure! If the fire-haired lady knew that we were selling her love saint blessed by God’s grace, wouldn’t she be punishing us by God?”

"Don't worry about that." Luo Feng quickly shook his head and said: "Goddess Wojin, above, in Goddess Wojin's divine kingdom on earth, there is nothing that cannot be measured with gold coins, and love also has a price. As Wojin, you Believers of the goddess dare not sell a priceless antique artifact in the temple of Goddess Woking because they are afraid of the power of the God of Love. Aren't they afraid that Goddess Woking will punish you and make you bankrupt and never get gold coins? You need to know that believers Your betrayal is more likely to attract the hatred of the gods."

When Quatalis heard what Luo Feng said, he shrank in fear and nodded quickly: "You are absolutely right. In the Waking Temple, love can of course be sold! Please give me a price."

"I have told you before that it is best for us to become partners. If you want to pay for it and then resell it, you will definitely not be able to accept the sky-high price I offer."

Luo Feng said with a smile: "Only those who know the goods and need them can afford the sky-high price for this rare item. I suggest you hold an auction. I will be responsible for gathering the target consumer group of this product, formulating a sales strategy, and paying you One-tenth of the auction proceeds are used as venue fees and commissions.”

Quartalis was hesitant. Although he had identified this lifelike immortal body as indeed extraordinary and extremely rare, he was not sure what price it could fetch. His bottom line for bidding was eight thousand gold coins. He judged whether this statue could be It was sold for about twelve thousand gold coins.

In the field of art collection, it is really difficult to judge the value of a commodity. When a collector is extremely eager for it, even a broken stone can be sold for ten thousand gold.

There is a story circulating in the field of art sales. There was a noble lady who took a fancy to a sculpture with a very strange expression and movement. She thought it was a handed down work of the dwarf sculptor Lomus Stone Chisel, and offered to buy it back for 5,000 gold coins. Home display.

As a result, someone sneaked into her house at night. Instead of stealing anything, they used a petrification-free scroll on the sculpture, turning the sculpture into a living person. It turned out that the sculpture was an unlucky guy who had been affected by the petrification spell...

The aristocratic lady also became a laughing stock in the collecting community.

This sculpture named "Io, the lover looking from afar, the immortal man for thousands of years", judging from the material, it is definitely not an unlucky ghost who has been affected by the petrification technique. The manufacturing process is also extremely exquisite. It is not like ordinary things in the world, and it can indeed It can achieve the effect of immortality for thousands of years, but can it also meet buyers like the noble lady who is willing to pay a high price for the petrification sculpture?

Seeing the shop owner frowning and thinking, Luo Feng said: "The risk you take is much lower than buying it and reselling it. Can you spend hundreds of gold coins to provide a venue and organize an auction? I think this treasure can at least be auctioned if the business is run properly. If you pay a sky-high price of more than 50,000 gold coins, aren't you just sitting on a net profit of 5,000 gold coins? If you are not willing, I will find another partner."

"make a deal!"

The shopkeeper immediately shouted: "I believe you, guest from the star world, the learned and wise Mr. Bredreau, you are also a very outstanding businessman and connoisseur. It is my honor to be a partner with you." "
