Old-time musicians

"Oh, did 'I' say that? Then I'm relieved."

Fanning listened carefully and responded with a smile.

If it was in the past, he might have simply laughed it off, such as "Hahaha what a mess", but now he feels more and more that the subconscious in dreams has its own mystical laws, especially for those who know, the various sleeping groups encountered in the process of dream testing and dream recognition can be interpreted and extended.

Besides, when Shilan fell asleep in the hotel last night, wasn't it the time when he and Viadrin discussed the secret of "Noon" in the wreckage of the "Incinerator"?

"Carlon, when you say 'going to a place', you are not referring to this trip to St. Perto?"

"That's impossible, the Holy City is not an abnormal area."

"Could it be the Vanderschaft Collection that we are going to walk to now?"

"How is that possible?"

"Well, what can I see inside?"

Fanning thought for a while and said, "The Vanderschaft Collection was a private venue located in a remote back street in the former town of Norberwin 30 years ago. It mainly displayed some sandstone paintings, embossed specimens and other small antiques, but it was closed after an incomprehensible wave of ecstasy broke out. Later, it was incorporated into the urban area, and the Guidance School took over the collection again. It is currently operated by a professional art management company entrusted to Saint Taranburg."

"That is considered an industry protected by the school itself." Xilan said "Oh" twice.

Some private art institutions are investigated, rectified or acquired by official organizations after mysterious incidents such as "hauntings". This is a very common thing.

After walking for a minute or two, Sheeran gradually passed Fanning, and suddenly turned around, with a look of sudden enlightenment:

"I know."

"What?"

"Tell me, what kind of 'surprise' do you want to give me this year?"

"What kind of surprise? It's obviously a surprise, okay?" Fanning said helplessly.

"Yeah, you did give me a 'surprise' on my birthday two years ago." Sheeran gritted his teeth.

"Okay, you still remember the grudge," Fanning said quickly, "I guarantee it will be a surprise this year, a big surprise."

"Is the Turner Art Hall that big?" Sheeran imitated Fanning's gesture.

".Not that big, not that big." Fanning waved his hands repeatedly, and motioned her to turn right at the next intersection.

The blue-gray curtains covered the front windows of the house tightly, and the potted plants at the front door were ornamental kumquats. The indoor hall had a smell of aged wood. A colorful macaw stood on the wooden pole of the reception desk, and the two eyes on the huge beak looked at the visitors.

"Gah!——"

After the macaw screamed, hurried footsteps sounded from behind the shelf, and a manager-like man came out with two staff members.

"Mr. Fanning, Miss Sheeran, you are here, welcome, welcome"

It is obvious that Fanning had already greeted Sir Viadrin about today's schedule last night, and the two were then received seamlessly by the management staff of the Van der Schaaf Collection.

In this collection, the assets owned by the Guidance School are displayed, all for exhibition purposes only.

The other displays are entrusted by a third party to be consigned here, and their nature is somewhat similar to Fanning's display of "Death and the Maiden" to music fans in the new work exhibition hall of the Ufransell City Concert Hall.

Those who are interested in buying can leave a note below to bid, and the museum will keep in touch with the depositor and communicate to encourage them to sell when the price is right.

In many cases, even if the objects are traded, they are still hung on the wall of the collection hall - the new owner does not take them away for use, but regards the sale as an investment, hoping that they will stay here and continue to appreciate in value in a few years.

"Fantasy Garden".

"Birdsong".

"Missing under the Moonlight".

A rouge box from the end of the Hoffman era, a fishbone brooch from the ancient battlefield site of Lydia, and a colorful butterfly unearthed during the Turungarian Dynasty.

The two looked at the collection all the way, from embossed works to small antiques. The staff explained in detail and introduced the auction price trend of the items that can be sold.

Sheeran felt that Fanning treated this as shopping.

Along the way, it was indeed felt that two or three embossed works were very eye-catching, and three or four small gadgets were very interesting, especially interesting.

However, the prices of collectibles and exhibits are all expensive and far exceed the practical value. Sheeran felt that the possibility of her selling them was not great, but if Fanning was from the perspective of choosing a birthday gift, the commemorative significance would naturally be different, and she would still be happy to accept it.

They walked along the route several times in a "Z" shape, and Fanning had no intention of choosing until they came to an open place in the exhibition hall.

Watching Fanning walk towards the conspicuous booth with circular steps, and seeing the violin-like things faintly displayed in the glass window under the bright lights, Xilan felt as if he had thought of something.

Impossible, impossible, impossible, how could it be.

"Sol Ruby, a famous violin that flowed here from the Sol Islands in the southern continent in the 5th century of the new calendar, may have been made by the Saint Agenie violin-making family, and enjoys the reputation of "the most noble and brilliant star among violins". Its tone is elegant and clear, hitting the soul directly, and its resonance and plasticity are extremely strong. The current collector is Duke Tefan Rudnev of the Empire."

"In the past ten years, it has been bid for four times, namely 486,000 pounds, 540,000 pounds, 609,000 pounds, and 668,000 pounds. If you want to continue bidding, according to the original requirements set by Lord Rudnev, you You need to raise at least £20,000 and bid at least once within six months.”

"Get it out for me for 700,000 pounds. I have already contacted Duke Rudenev." Fan Ning smiled, "I will pay a deposit of 150,000 pounds today. Well, before dark, I will send people will come here.”

"Ah!! Carol, are you serious?" Sheeran finally covered her mouth and exclaimed.

The manager immediately expressed his understanding and signaled the staff to hurry up and prepare for the procedures. Even though he had been notified in advance by his superiors at the Guidance School, the business of this level and weight made his palms slightly sweaty, but Fan Ning's voice was still continue:

"Then please transport it to the south dock area of ​​Uvranser the day after tomorrow, that is, before 18:00 on September 26. Our cruise ship will set sail to San Porto later to confirm that the handover is correct. The balance payment will be made It will be paid on site, including the taxes entrusted to the venue to be paid together, and what else is going on. There is no need to explain what you need to pay attention to when transporting a violin. I believe you are professionals."
