Chapter 65: Selling Teammates Succeeds

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

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

Quatarius pondered, found the corresponding historical period from the distant history, and exclaimed, "It is an antique from the golden age of Netheril!" No wonder the manufacturing process is so exquisite. ”

"The sculpture was originally a young man named Io, who was in love with a female arcanist, and the two fell in love and were about to enter the palace of marriage." Luo Feng continued to talk eloquently: "However, there are unforeseen circumstances, and in 2027 before the Valley Era, there will be a great flood in the City of Memory where the two lovers live! ”

Quartaris, who has been dealing in antiques and art for many years, knows a lot about history, and thinks, "Is it because of the flooding of the Tokiba River?" It was a flood that lasted for thousands of miles and lasted for more than a decade. ”

"Wise sir, you are indeed well-informed, and it is the great flood caused by the overflow of the Changba River."

Luo Feng praised, and he continued: "That young man named Io lives on a mountain called 'Tu Mountain', Tu Mountain is very high, but he is not afraid of floods, and his lover is a great arcanist who specializes in earth element spells. The girl was also a remarkable character, and when she saw the destruction of cities due to flooding, the transformation of forests and fields, and the displacement of people, she decided to rely on her powerful magical powers to control the floods. It was this female arcanist who calmed the floods of the Tokiba River by channeling and channeling the water, allowing the inhabitants of the Tokiba River to live in peace and happiness again. ”

"There is no record in the official history of this secret Xinfeilun, and the chronicle is also unknown, after all, it happened more than three thousand years ago, and it turns out that the great flood of the Changbo River is so calm." Quartaris nodded repeatedly.

Luo Feng said: "In order to save the people affected by the flood, the female arcanist was busy day and night, always using earth magic to block the flow of water on the front line of the flood, and passed by Io's door three times, and did not go in to see Io. ”

He sighed: "Io has been waiting for thirteen years in a row, and he thinks about his lover, but he can't wait. It turned out that his lover was overworked and couldn't wake up on the day of the successful flood control, and passed away. And because of her exploits in controlling the Great Flood, she was favored by Edas, the goddess of water springs and peace, and was given the status of a voter and entered the temple of nature to become a prayer provider! The world is eternally separated from the kingdom of God, and the two will never have the opportunity to see each other again. ”

Quartaris also sighed: "What a sad love story! ”

Luo Feng said with tears in the corners of his eyes: "Ai Ou did not give up his infatuation with his lover, he continued to stand on the top of Tu Mountain and look into the distance, looking forward to seeing one day that the lover who has become the chosen person of God can step on the colorful clouds to marry him, but he guessed the beginning, but did not guess the ending, he will never wait for that day, he prayed to the gods that he can wait for another 10,000 years and never give up true love!" ”

Quatarius was also very touched and deeply moved by this infatuated young man.

Luo Feng continued in a sacred and solemn tone: "The goddess of love and goodness, the Fire-haired Lady Shanny, answered his prayers and was deeply moved by the story of the lovers, and she gave a miracle to fulfill Io's wish. The young man's actions were in line with the teachings of Eros: 'Believe in the sanctity of love, believe that true love will win in the end', so she turned Io into a living sculpture that will last for thousands of years, so that he will no longer fear the erosion of time, and finally wait for the lover he wants. ”

The three team members standing behind Luo Feng were eye-opening, just such a tattered mechanical body with no appearance, was blown into a god-given treasure in the captain's mouth, and he didn't know how many gold coins he would sell.

"Eros is on top of Shanny!"

Quartarius hurriedly praised the name of the god, involving the god, as a mortal, he must express his awe: "Do you want to put this god-given treasure on our store and sell it on consignment?" Measuring it in terms of money is an insult to this treasure! If the Fire-Haired Lady knew that we were betraying the love saint who had been moistened by the grace of her God, wouldn't she have punished us with God? ”

"There's nothing to worry about." Luo Feng hurriedly shook his head and said: "Goddess Wolkin is above, in the kingdom of God on earth of Goddess Workin, there is nothing that cannot be measured by gold coins, and love is also valuable." As a believer of the goddess Waukin, you dare not sell a priceless antique artifact in the temple of the goddess Wauquin because you are afraid of the power of the goddess of love. Know that the abandonment of believers is more likely to attract the hatred of the gods. ”

Hearing what Luo Feng said, Quartaris shrunk his neck in fright, and hurriedly nodded: "You are very right, in the Waujin Temple, of course love can be sold!" Please make an offer. ”

"I've told you before, we'd better become partners, if you want to pay money to buy and resell, you won't be able to accept the sky-high price I offered."

Luo Feng said with a smile: "This kind of strange thing can only be afforded by those who know and need it, I suggest that you hold an auction, and I will be responsible for convening the target consumer group of this product, formulating a sales strategy, and paying you one-tenth of the auction proceeds as venue fees and commissions." ”

Quatarius hesitated, although he had already identified that this lifelike immortal body was indeed extraordinary and extremely rare, he was not sure what price it could sell, his bid was eight thousand gold coins, judging that this statue could be sold for about twelve thousand gold coins.

In the field of art collection, it is really difficult to judge the value of a commodity, and even a broken stone can be sold for tens of thousands of gold when encountering extremely eager collectors.

There is a story in the art sales world that a noble lady once took a fancy to a sculpture with a strange expression and movements, believing it to be the heirloom of the dwarven sculptor Loms - a stone chisel, and paid 5,000 gold coins to buy it for home.

As a result, someone sneaked into her house at night, and instead of stealing anything, they used a dismantling fossilization scroll on the sculpture, turning the sculpture into a large living person, which turned out to be an unlucky person who had been petrified......

The aristocratic lady also became the laughing stock of the collecting world.

This sculpture named "Io, the lover who looks at him from afar, the immortal man of ten thousand years", is certainly not an unlucky ghost who has been hit by petrification in terms of material, and the craftsmanship of the manufacture is also extremely exquisite, unlike ordinary things in the world, it can indeed achieve the effect of immortality for ten thousand years, but can it also meet a buyer like the aristocratic lady who is willing to pay a high price for the petrification sculpture?

Seeing that the shopkeeper was frowning and thinking, Luo Feng said: "The risk you take is much lower than buying it and then reselling it, and it costs a few hundred gold coins to provide a venue to organize an auction?" I think that if this treasure is properly operated, it can at least fetch a sky-high price of more than 50,000 gold coins, wouldn't you be sitting on a net profit of 5,000 gold coins? If you don't want to, I'll go to another partner. ”

"Deal!"

The innkeeper immediately exclaimed, "I believe that you, a guest from the astral plane, the learned and wise Mr. Bredrow, are also a very good merchant and connoisseur. It is my pleasure to be a partner with you. ”
