I mean pure gold.
Sato Shiro stared at Kazesawa in shock.
Do you know how much a life-size gold statue costs?
Based on current gold prices, a life-size statue weighing 80 kilograms would cost approximately 600 million.
"That's not important. You just need to answer me: it's better to use identity as the base for the idol."
Yanase Saya replied, "Actually, there are no special requirements, but the more precious the material, the higher the spirituality of the statue itself, and the wider the effect and range of the deity's fortune. But pure gold is really unnecessary."
Feng Zejian looked at a string of numbers on his mobile banking app.
To be honest, Feng Zejian was also a little hesitant, but his savings were just about enough. If he didn't have enough, he could convince himself, but if he just had enough, then it was a different story.
Sato Shiro also advised from the side, "You need to calm down, kid. If it's pure gold, that's no small sum of money."
"I don't care about these things, I'll just treat it as an investment. But it's gold after all, can you hold onto it?"
Sato Shiro smiled.
"I've been guarding these little devils, who are more precious than gold, for so many years, and apart from those with legs of their own, I haven't seen any of them get lost."
Feng Zejian remained silent, then gritted his teeth.
"It's pure gold."
With the location and materials finalized, the next step is the construction of the shrine.
Feng Zejian wasn't one to dawdle; he immediately contacted a designer online and produced several drafts.
The group finalized a version together, and then came the sketches for the statue.
The Raven God briefly revealed his true form for this reason.
The Raven God's human form is beautiful, with a pair of black wings and a rather voluptuous figure. Black Feather Bird, on the other hand, did not inherit any of her mother's excellent genes.
The clothes are mostly black, but they'll all be gold later. The only problem is the eyes; those jet-black eyes would look too out of place if they were also made of gold.
Those dark, inky eyes were truly beautiful.
At this moment, Yanase Saya suggested, "Why not use obsidian? It would match Lord Karasu's eyes better."
Feng Zejian nodded. "That's a good suggestion."
The design of the statue was personally handled by Feng Zejian and others.
Feng Zejian drew several decent sketches based on the painting.
Finally, the Raven God chose a sketch with a small raven perched on its shoulder.
Choosing this one is quite simple: a tiny raven perched on the shoulder of the Raven God. Only the Black Feather Bird could do something like this, which can be seen as the Raven God's expectation for his daughter.
The eyes of the raven and the raven god are inlaid with the finest obsidian.
Driven by money, the construction of the shrine began. With a large amount of money invested, dozens of workers worked through the night, and the shrine appeared before the public in just three days.
Under the proper command of Saya Sue Yanase, the shrine had everything it needed, including Asuka Kuroba's shrine maiden attire.
Chapter 152 The Help of Torya Salty
The space where the statue was placed is empty; it's time to acquire one.
Before that, you need to acquire gold.
Sato Shiro drove Kazesawa to the bank and bought nearly 90 kilograms of gold bars.
But looking at all this gold, how to smelt it is a skill-intensive task.
You can't find anything like this online right now.
Just when Feng Zejian was at his wit's end, he received a friend request on his social media account.
Feng Zejian wanted to refuse, since he didn't know who the other party was, but he accidentally clicked "agree".
Just as I was thinking of deleting it, the other party sent me a message.
"Feng Zejian, my friend, how have you been lately?"
Feng Zejian was stunned when he saw this greeting.
The person accurately stated their name and knew their personal account number, suggesting they were someone they had real-life connections with.
"Thank you, may I ask who you are?"
"My name is Torya Salti."
"Foreign friends? I don't remember knowing any foreign friends."
"Haha, it's okay. You may not know me, but I know you. You probably need help, so I came."
Feng Zejian frowned slightly. "Can you help me with this?"
"Smelting gold and sculpting statues, I can do that."
Upon seeing this sentence, Feng Zejian felt a chill run down his spine. "I haven't even said anything yet."
“My friend, are you God? I haven’t even stated my request yet, and you already know it.”
The reply came quickly: "My friend, I am not God, I am a human being, you can rest assured about that. So, do you need my help?"
Although the other party was somewhat intimidating, they were also sincere enough. Why not take advantage of such an easy opportunity?
"If you'd be willing to help me, that would be wonderful. How can we meet in person?"
“My friend, we don’t need to meet. Once you’re asleep tonight, I will control your body if you agree.”
"Of course I will only do what you ask, and I won't do anything else."
“My situation is somewhat special, and I cannot meet you in a normal manner, so I can only arrive in this way.”
Feng Zejian stared at the screen without saying anything.
Judging from the current situation, the person I'm talking to online must be someone with terrifying abilities.
He even said he could control his own body as long as he fell asleep.
However, he harbored no ill will towards me.
Even if such a person has malicious intent, there's nothing you can do about it.
"Then I'll trouble you. Should I keep your name a secret?"
When Feng Zejian sent this message, the other party clearly paused for a long time.
"Let's keep it a secret for now."
"I understand. You can use my body properly, but don't do anything strange."
The other party simply replied with a string of ellipses.
Just then, there was a knock on the door of Feng Zejian's room.
"Please come in."
Sato Shiro appeared before Kazesawa.
"Hey kid, got a moment?"
After thinking for a moment, Feng Zejian nodded.
"There should be, what's wrong?"
"These brats are looking for you."
Sato Shiro turned to the side and saw Kiritani Yama and the others.
If they hadn't shown up, Feng Zejian would have almost forgotten about them.
However, he didn't quite understand what they were doing there.
Four boys and one girl came to Feng Zejian and apologized in unison.
"sorry."
Feng Zejian was even more bewildered.
"What do you mean by this?"
Tong Gushan said:
We said some things we shouldn't have that day, and we hurt your feelings. We're sorry.
Feng Zejian's eyes flickered slightly. "Is that all?"
"Also, a bet is a bet, and all five of us lost. We've already told the Yin-Yang Bureau that we won't go there for now, until we're stronger. We came here today to ask how you plan to arrange things for us."
Feng Zejian shook his head.
"I can't make arrangements for you; you have better options."
The group was quite puzzled. "What do you mean?"
"The dean is far superior to me. Instead of asking me how to arrange things for you and make you stronger, you should go and drain your dean dry."
Sato Shiro was sweating profusely.
"Hey kid, don't let these brats get their attention on me."
Feng Zejian laughed and said, "You're the one who doesn't want them to leave. If you want them to stay, you should at least have a reason."
The five little devils looked at Sato Shiro.
Sato Shiro sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.
"Even if you say that, my training methods are a bit too harsh for these kids."
Kiritaniyama said with absolute confidence, "Dean, if you really have a way to make us stronger, then show it. We are not that fragile."
Sato Shiro looked at Kazesawa Makoto, his expression... well, his smile was rather twisted.
"Kid, since there's still some time today, why don't you be these kids' sparring partner? It'll be a good opportunity for them to see the difference in skill."
Feng Zejian pondered for a moment.
"Fine, I'm just killing time anyway."
Sato led a few people to a road with few cars.
"We don't have much time today, so I won't make any demands on you."
He pointed to the big tree next to him, and then to a tree in the distance.
“Run from here to there. Fifty round trips, no time limit.”
Tonggu Mountain is eager to try.
“It’s so easy.”
By visual estimation, a round trip between Fengze and Ze is about ten kilometers, or five hundred kilometers.
"I'm saying, 500 kilometers? Are you trying to exhaust someone to death?"
Sato Shiro grinned smugly and reminded him:
"While you're complaining, someone has already started. If you can't finish, you'll be laughed at."
Feng Zejian smiled helplessly, then assumed a running posture and began to run at a steady pace.
Only Fengzejian was running at a constant speed.
Feng Zejian was also the slowest runner.
The others, on the other hand, seemed to be on steroids, running wildly.
In the early stages, he easily defeated Feng Zejian.
One lap, two laps, three laps, the fastest Kiritaniyama even lapped Kazesawa ten times.
The highest record is ten laps, because young people recklessly squander their physical strength, and by the middle stage, or even the early to middle stage, some people are already exhausted.
Feng Zejian gradually caught up with these people, and even surpassed them.
Kiritaniyama was exceptionally competitive. Even though he was exhausted, he kept running as long as he had the last breath, watching Kazesawa Mako gradually catch up.
In the end, only Kazesawa and Kiritani successfully completed about fifty rounds.
