Chapter 805: It’s Starting to Pay Off
In the end, Du You failed to realize his wish to go to see things the next day. Because on the first day of Du You's arrival, he had just arrived at the hotel, and then many people came to visit, including local officials and some minor nobles.
Then came various invitation letters, inviting Du You to attend various dance parties and so on.
"I know what the daily lives of these nobles are like, all of them are so idle."
These invitations to dance parties and receptions are still very important, and they are the most important part of the daily life of the nobles. No matter whether it is a big or small matter, many of them have to be discussed here.
Even the resolution of some conflicts, as well as the outbreak of some new conflicts, all appear here.
If you don't participate, you're considered a loner. Even the imperial law stipulates that when nobles stay in a new city for more than three days, they must participate in a public banquet and communicate with the local nobles.
In other words, Du You had to attend these invitations at least once.
"Then take part in it. This is the closest, tomorrow, and we will be free after participating." Like Du You, the two sisters are not used to this kind of occasion. It feels too restrained and a little too strange.
Of course, Du You himself is a different kind in the eyes of others.
The nobles who were born in the common people were not recognized by them, and they were also pioneer nobles in the border areas. In the eyes of these local nobles, Du You is a reckless man, a new nobleman who came here to be gilded.
The capital of art, a good place for many reckless nobles to gild, come and get some artistic atmosphere.
It's just that when Du You came, he flew here, without horses, convoys, servants, or guards. He didn't even prepare for a decent visiting etiquette, so he just flew over by himself.
This situation, as nobles, is also the first time they have encountered this situation, which is really strange.
In the Shenyan Empire, which has been in peace for a long time, this kind of thing is really too rare. The next day, Du You took the two sisters to the reception, and the other nobles just came up to say hello, keeping them far away.
Never seen anyone come with a female guard. And the two sisters didn't have evening gowns, they were dressed as archers, which didn't fit in with the whole reception, but Du You could be better.
In any case, it is also a mage's appearance, and nobles will wear it, and there are also many mages and nobles who dress like this.
Although Du You's attire was a bit different and a mix-and-match style, it caused many people to discuss secretly.
As a result, Du You did not encounter the so-called love affair at this reception. There are quite a few beauties and ladies, but none of them approached Du You actively, and Du You didn't bother to approach these people.
Throughout the reception, Du You acted like a transparent person, just sitting on the sidelines with the two sisters, eating and drinking, watching with cold eyes.
After the dull reception, Du You can finally watch the things he wants to watch.
The buildings in the entire city of art are indeed in strange shapes. As for where the art is, I'm sorry. Du You doesn't have this kind of vision, so he can't see it at all. On the contrary, the two sisters can see something.
After wandering around several squares, Du Youzai finally found something useful to him.
"What is that?" Du You said calmly, in front of him was a statue of a wolf, very abstract.
Lula looked at the statue in that corner, and there was a flash of complexity in his eyes: "That, that is the statue carved by the great Demon Wolf King. The Demon Wolf King carved it himself for his dead beloved pet Demon Wolf. He studied here for three years. It was only carved in 2000. It's a pity that although the Demon Wolf King is great, he has no achievements in art, so he can only carve out such defective products."
"So, it's because of his identity that he stays here. Can I buy it?"
"Of course. In fact, this statue has no value other than commemorative significance." This statue is too big, more than five meters high, and it can't be blocked if it is placed in a corner, otherwise Du You would not see it.
If it weren't for the identity of the Demon Wolf King, this thing would have been thrown away long ago. Speaking of which, the price of this statue is very cheap, not even as expensive as shipping. But no matter what, this statue had a connection with Lin Yucha's bloodthirsty demon wolf skill.
Du You went through the formalities to buy it, and then hired some people to send it back to his territory. If you want to get this kind of thing, no one will snatch it, and you will definitely not encounter any danger if you keep it.
After buying it, both Du You and Lin Yucha breathed a sigh of relief. After that, I continued to watch various famous things in Casili, and I didn't have that special feeling.
On the third day, Du You didn't continue to wander outside, but went inside the exhibition hall to see the things left by real celebrities.
"I have to say, a world that hasn't been searched by other people really has a lot of benefits." It is very difficult for other people to find suitable things to improve their skill level.
The one I met last time, with four fourth-level skills, is already considered a good player.
The fact that I can encounter so many things that can improve my skills at once is enough to show that this place has a very high gold content. Perhaps, I can buy some myself, take them back and hang them on the magic net, and let others choose. Du You thought of the prices of other celebrity items that he had seen back then, maybe he could also add them in.
But Du You shook his head, we'll talk about this matter later, now I can't waste my funds.
Everything here is inflated, but for the sake of my own skills, I can only grit my teeth and do it.
"Oh, this, this is the palette of the Western God of War in the Empire three hundred years ago. It is said that the Western God of War is a very good painter, but it is a pity that he took the route of a warrior. What a pity."
Du You rolled his eyes, what a pity, can a painter be as valuable as a high-ranking soldier plus a general?
"Okay, I bought this thing. And this one, this thing looks interesting too."
"This is just for spoofing. One pen with one nib is enough, but this pen has eight nibs. It's all the fault of that guy, who made trouble at the beginning, otherwise the great craftsman Cuosi would not have made such a pen to prove his skills. There's something coming."
Du You doesn't care who made this thing. He only knows that the color palette corresponds to his dark absorption skill, and the multi-point pen corresponds to his spell splitting technique. Originally, I thought that the most difficult thing to find was the special spell-related skill of spell splitting, but I didn't expect my luck to be so good, so I couldn't let it go.
