Chiyan City, Proulx Hall, Master Exhibition Hall.

The name hanging outside this exhibition hall is "Hurley Philippa", which belongs to the exhibition hall of a stone carving master.

In her personal stone sculpture exhibition hall, the various stone sculptures are very interesting.

Her stone carvings are very unique and very small in size.

They are all small stone sculptures that are only slightly larger than a human hand. The price of the signs is also very cheap. The most expensive one does not exceed one hundred gold coins.

Of course, this is normal.

The larger the stone sculpture, the more energy the stone carver spends.

The famous stone sculpture, the "Blood-Eyed Mane Lion" by Master Hoover, which is the first of the top ten stone sculptures, is almost the same size as the real Holy World of Warcraft Blood-Eyed Mane Lion.

It’s big, so it’s expensive.

Ultra-small stone sculptures are naturally much cheaper than ordinary stone sculptures.

It is normal for a stone sculpture that is only one-tenth of the height to be ten times cheaper.

This master of stone carving went in the opposite direction and started carving ultra-small stone carvings, which was quite interesting.

Even in Hogg's view, this is a unique approach. After all, it is difficult to get rid of the traditional thinking mode.

Hogg saw his wife Lina admiring one of the small stone sculptures.

This stone carving is similar to the posture of a girl. The girl is frowning and looks very cute, but she has two pairs of dragonfly wings on her back, which makes her even more unique.

"Flower fairy? Elf? It can't be Ding Dong anyway, right?" Hogg secretly laughed, "It's more of a figure than a stone sculpture."

Although Panlong Universe is a fantasy world, the only intelligent race that is not a high-level monster is humans.

However, there are many planes in this universe, and some common creatures in other material planes have long existed in the artistic works of Yulan Continent.

For example, orcs, elves, dragons... Of course, flower fairies are also a very common character.

However, stone sculptures are generally large and medium-sized, and this kind of figure-level stone sculpture, which is slightly larger than a human palm... can be considered strange.

The name of this stone sculpture is "Flower Fairy". It seems that the carving technique is exquisite and small.

Linna obviously likes this stone sculpture very much.

The price tag below this stone sculpture is sixty gold coins.

However, this price is not the final price.

Even the stone sculptures in ordinary exhibition halls are actually similar to the auction system. People can bid on them within a month of visiting, and they will eventually be sold to the highest bidder.

As for stone carving masters, the principle is the same, but the period for displaying their stone carvings is based on years. If enthusiasts want to buy it, they will generally pay a high price and then negotiate with each other.

"Lina, since you want to buy it, let's offer a high price." Hogg smiled slightly, "If you mark a small statue like this for 160 gold coins, you should be able to buy it."

"This stone carving is indeed very interesting. The details are very delicate. Although there are a few places that are a bit unnatural, it is still worth the price..."

"Haha, you are not ashamed of your words." A majestic voice sounded from behind Hogg, who was also a visiting guest.

But this man's appearance... Hogg is a little weird.

A strong man with a reflective head, a height of over 2.5 meters, and a green ax on his back.

Hearing Hogg's evaluation, the strong man was very dissatisfied, "This is a little...Master Hurley's stone sculpture. How can it be unnatural as you said?"

Hogg glanced at the strong man strangely. Somehow, he felt that the temperament of this strong man was somewhat similar to his own. "This stone carving is not bad, but if there is nothing unnatural at all, the average stone carving master would

It can’t be done.”

"Look here...here...and here. These three details are indeed very delicate and well-handled. But they are obviously inconsistent with the real structure...Of course, there are no real flowers in our Magnolia Continent.

It belongs to a fairy, so it cannot be said that it is wrong to carve it like this." Hogg said calmly, "But it will cause damage to the overall shape of the stone carving technique."

When Hogg opened his mouth, the strong man fell silent for a moment.

He thought he was just a person who knew little about stone carvings, making rude remarks about his...respectable Ms. Hurley's stone carvings.

But as soon as Hogg spoke, the strong man knew that the other party was also an expert. Even if he was not a master of stone carving, he must be a senior stone carving enthusiast.

Otherwise, you won’t be able to see some of the problems at a glance.

Thinking of this, the strong man's face looked much better, and he nodded slightly to Hogg, "What you said is not bad, but... after all, Flower Fairy, I have only heard of such existence in other planes.

Our plane doesn’t have it, and we can only rely on imagination to make up for some details. So the detail structure problem you mentioned is actually not a problem.”

"You're right." Hogg nodded, without arguing, and accompanied his wife Lina to mark the prices of several relatively perfect stone sculptures in the exhibition hall.

It is normal to have some defects in stone sculptures. Since his wife likes it, he will buy it.

With his reputation as a stone carving master, it is much easier for him to "launder money". He also has a lot of gold coins in his hand, so he has enough money to buy some stone carvings.

Of course, he has set a price, but the other party may not be willing to sell it. This requires both parties to negotiate.

Moreover, there are dozens of expert exhibition halls in this guild hall.

Hogg plans to go to the master's exhibition hall after seeing them one by one.

Just looking at the stone carvings in these masters' exhibition halls, he found that there were obvious differences in regional styles between the stone carvings of the O'Brien Empire and the stone carvings of the Holy Alliance.

More rough, the carvings are as sharp as axes and knives, but they have a special style.

Hogg now also wants to see the works of this local stone carving master.

However, before he could walk out of the expert exhibition hall, a figure hurriedly walked into the exhibition hall.

Director Terrence's eyes lit up when he saw Hogg and the bald man.

"Master Philippa... This one must be Master Hogg from the Holy Alliance... I didn't expect you to know each other."

"???"

"???"

Both of them were a little surprised.

Hogg didn't expect that this strong man who looked like a rough warrior was actually a master of stone carving. After all, the other party specifically called someone "master" in the Proulx Hall, which undoubtedly meant stone carving.

Master.

As for this strong man, Master Philippa, he also did not expect that Hogg was actually the rumored new master of the Holy Alliance.

The social status of a stone carving master is still very high. Although a new stone carving master is still somewhat controversial, he is still very respected.

There are only twenty or thirty stone carving masters in the entire Magnolia Continent, and each one of them is considered a remarkable figure.

It is actually a relatively rare thing for two stone carving masters to meet. Especially the reason why Hogg came to the O'Brien Empire was to "exchange stone carving skills".

Some of the real core skills of stone carving masters can only be passed on to disciples, but some concepts are very suitable for communication with people of the same level.

Of course, not now.

Not to mention that it is a chance encounter now, Master Philippa has some things to do later.

Moreover, exchanges between stone carving masters are usually organized by the Proulx Hall.

This kind of high-level exchanges usually need to be widely publicized, and there will also be a group of stone carving masters and stone carving enthusiasts holding notebooks to study seriously.

The two now only officially exchanged names and got to know each other, and then Master Philippa said goodbye and left.
