I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

No matter what product it is, personalized customization must be more expensive than a uniform product. This is an unbreakable truth in business, and the dolls made by Aozaki Orange are no exception.

No, it would be better to make exceptions, and Shenji would really have a headache. In his opinion, the more precious Orange's dolls are, the better, so that the Emiya family owes him as much as they owe the Matou family, preferably so much that they won't be able to repay it in their lifetime.

So Shenji waved his hand proudly: "Make an offer."

Chengzi found that he couldn't understand the little boy in front of him.

Meeting "Long Yan", self-imposed certification, and half a million hush money all showed that he was a shrewd person. However, why would such a shrewd person assume such an attitude of being an ignorant rich second generation?

If it was a disguise, it would be a failure, right? Or is it that he has a dual personality like himself?

The doubts in his heart did not affect Chengzi's answer: "First tell me how you are going to pay."

"Depending on your needs, I have the money, materials, and technology ready." Shenji crossed his legs, looking more and more like the silly son of a landlord.

“Full package or bring your own materials?”

"It's best to do it all. If we need to prepare materials, we will convert them into market prices and deduct them from your remuneration."

"Refreshing." Orange smiled slightly, "Since you are so cheerful, I won't procrastinate anymore. The starting price for a customized doll is 100 million yen, and the price will be increased depending on the characteristics of the soul. Normally, it will not exceed 150 million yen. Ten million."

"You said you wanted to give us a discount." Shen Er folded his hands and propped up his chin.

"This is already the price after discounts." Chengzi's face didn't change, "If it weren't for discounts, it would be at least 10 million more."

"Two to three hundred million yen? It's a bit high, but it's not unacceptable. It's a deal."

Chengzi's customized doll service is hard to come by. It's completely a buyer's market. It's not impossible to lower the price if you bargain slowly, but this amount of money is nothing compared to Chengzi's goodwill.

"How to pay? How much is the deposit? Do you need money, materials, and technology?"

"The deposit is 20 million, and you can transfer it by check."

"Sakura-" Shinji winked at his sister.

"I know, brother."

Sakura obediently took out her checkbook, signed a check for 20 million in the unique squiggle inherited from Scathach, and put Emiya Kiritsugu's seal on it, as if she was Shinji's little secretary.

"Cheques from Mitsubishi Bank are payable at any time."

Chengzi dialed Mitsubishi Bank's phone number very skillfully, and after verifying the authenticity of the check, he extended his hand to Shinji.

“The commission is officially accepted and it’s a pleasure to cooperate with you.”

“A pleasure to work with.”

Shinji held Orange's hand. He was worthy of being a top puppet master. These hands were more delicate than anyone else's and exuded a unique touch. Perhaps only these unique hands could create puppets that were unparalleled in the world.

"What about the follow-up payments?"

"Follow-up payments are not limited to money. The rare materials or technologies you mentioned can be used. Taking away nine figures of funds in a short period of time will have a big impact on any company."

Orange's answer did not exceed Shenji's expectations. For any qualified magician, money is only a guarantee for magic research. Most of the time, they will choose to trade materials and techniques.

"It would be best if this young lady could reveal some information about the third magic."

Shenji shook his head and refused: "This won't work. Yustisa's third magic is not inherited, but an unexpected product. If I could learn it, I would have learned it long ago. I will change it to a technique that you absolutely cannot refuse. .”

The determined look and tone aroused Cheng Zi's curiosity: "Oh? So confident? What kind of technology."

"Sakura-" Shinji snapped his fingers, "Freeze."

"Okay, brother."

Sakura stretched out her finger and carved a rune similar to the English letter "i" into her water glass.

"Rune magic?" Cheng Zi's eyelids trembled slightly, "Not many people are willing to learn this kind of magic now."

Blue magic overflowed from the runes, the temperature of the air dropped rapidly, and even the water in the water glass gradually condensed into ice, while Orange's eyes became more and more serious.

"I heard that Miss Orange is practicing Rune Magic in the Clock Tower. You should be able to tell the difference." Shenji blinked, and the smile on his lips began to change into that of a cunning canine.

"The complete foundation."

In the eyes of laymen, this is just a low-level rune magic, but in the eyes of rune magic experts like Cheng Zi, it is of extremely great significance.

The decline of rune magic is due to the incomplete foundation due to the loss of runes. Apart from the puppet technology, Orange's greatest contribution to magic is to analyze the existing runes and understand the foundation of rune magic, that is, its commonality. The twenty-four runes were magically regenerated, saving the rune magic system.

But Cheng Zi knows very well that regeneration is not recovery after all. Although she has stood at the top of the pyramid of magicians, she still cannot restore the "rune magic" to its original appearance by herself. The power of the rune magic she has restored will never exceed the original version. Fifty percent rune magic.

But now, a six-year-old girl has shown the original rune magic, which makes Cheng Zi see the hope and future of rune magic.

"Miss, can you use another rune? Well, Algiz (Guardian), just use Algiz."

Sakura looked at Shenji. My brother is doing something very important. I can't cause trouble to him.

Shinji rubbed Sakura's hair, looked at Cheng Zi's undisguised expectation, and decided to make another surprise.

"What's Algiz? Sakura, use EIHWAZ."

"What-" Orange's exclamation was only halfway out, but Sakura blocked it with practical actions.

EIHWAZ and Algiz both belong to runes with protective power, but the former belongs to the original rune, and the latter is a derived and weakened version. The two are not the same.

Sakura was obviously not as relaxed as before. Her purple eyes were wide open, and her right hand was meticulously tracing on the table, as if she had used a lot of effort. With just a few strokes, a row of sweat beads appeared on Sakura's forehead.

The attentive Fujino quickly took out a handkerchief and waited until Sakura's hand left the coffee table before helping her wipe it.

Sakura said sweetly: "Thank you Fujino-sensei, brother, it's done."

"Sakura is so amazing." Shenji first praised and then made a "please" gesture to Orange, "Miss Orange——"

As Orange pushed up his glasses, Shenji could clearly feel the refractive index of the lenses changing. This change made Orange's vision converge into one point.

At the same time, Orange's eyes also bloomed with a strange light, which was the characteristic when the magic eye was opened. At this moment, Cheng Zi was completely attracted by the runes on the coffee table and completely forgot about the existence of other people.

I don’t know how long it took, but a small sound broke the silence in the room, and when it was heard, there was an obvious crack on Cheng Zi’s glasses. This crack blocked Orange's vision and woke her up from her own world.

"Really the 'Original Rune'."

The voice sounded calm at first, but underneath the calmness were emotions that were deliberately suppressed, like boiling water that stopped under the ice.

"I suddenly want to arrest you and study it carefully. There is no restriction on attacking the employer in the 'compulsory certificate'."

"You can try."

Shen Er spread his left hand and held up a strange-shaped golden magic weapon.
