Dharma Ring: Selling dung beetles at the border

Fan Lei took off his gloves, his fingers stained with the blood of the witch, and sketched an ancient secret text and an obscure magic circle on a stone tablet.

Fan Lei buried the stone tablet deeply into the soil below the blessing, and irrigated the blood above the blessing.

A small crystal pool of blood formed at the blessing point.

Then a long withered arm stretched out from the blood pool, holding a sharp obsidian and paddling on the water of the blood pool.

The blood pool rippled, forming circles.

The same mirror image is also shown in the reflection of the crystal blood pool. Some secret texts are carved out, and the lines inside and outside the mirror merge to form a magic circle.

The blood gradually coagulated and dried up, solidifying the magic circle.

Wuming held up his face and watched the whole process.

It's quite interesting. Wuming said, It's not very similar to the common spell system.

Haha, this is a technology developed by breaking with the guidance of blessing. Fan Lei said.

Break... Wuming whispered.

Are you afraid? Fan Lei chuckled, Are you afraid of deviating from the guidance of the blessing? But if you dare to create a new round table, you are already challenging the majesty of Two Fingers.

Speaking of which, I haven't seen fingers yet. Wuming didn't react at all to Fan Lei's barbed words and said to himself, What do two fingers look like??

I haven't seen it either. Fan Lei said, Only those who are pregnant with the Great Rune are qualified to see the two fingers.

Do we also have to have two fingers to look like a round table? Wuming thought about this matter.

It's better not to think so far ahead. Fan Lei said.

Also, let's build the infrastructure first. Wuming said.

In fact, Fan Lei persuaded Wu Ming to develop the caravan first.

At the moment, the fastest way to get the big rune is to kill Grek, but this is not in line with Fan Lei's interests.

He wants to grab benefits from both ends.

Greg is currently short of manpower and hungry for power. He can take the opportunity to develop the power of blood.

Wuming didn't think too much about it. With Fan Lei's promise, he had a demigod-level backer behind him and could be stable for a while.

The new round table was established in an orderly manner.

The first new business is to create teleportation tokens.

Pachi Wuming and Fan Lei stood together and discussed what kind of token should be made.

Fan Lei said: The medal requires higher technology and costs more, but it can be used at will, and some temporary teleportation tokens can also be made at a lower cost.

Wuming asked: What's the difference in cost?

Fan Lei said: The medal costs about 10,000, and the temporary one-time token costs about 200.

Wuming said: These are the costs, so how much do you charge?

Fan Lei smiled: Since we are cooperating, I won't charge you any money, but I need blood roses. How about a blood rose in exchange for a token?

He was exaggerating. In fact, the medal only costs five thousand, and the one-time token only costs one hundred runes.

As for the blood rose, Fan Lei said it lightly, but in fact, the cultivation of the blood rose is huge and requires a huge amount of blood perfusion. The cost is quite high. It costs about 300 runes to cultivate a blood rose.

He mainly wants to trick Wu Ming.

Although the Blood Dynasty was not short of money, he was also happy when he thought that Wuming, an annoying businessman, could make less money.

Three. Wuming stretched out three fingers, One flower for three tokens.

Fan Lei was shocked, this happened to be a reasonable price.

Why does he know the value of things so well...

He observed Wuming and spoke cautiously:

You know the price of blood rose very well?

Ah? Wuming was confused, I don't know.

Then why do you need to change three.

Have a bargain. Wuming said, If you ask for a high price, you have to bargain when you get down to the ground. Patch taught me this.

Don't talk nonsense. Patch denied, Three coins is an exorbitant price. It's embarrassing - I want thirty coins in exchange.

The price suddenly changed from reasonable to that of Blood Dynasty Wool.

Fan Lei vomited blood:

No, just three.

Then three. Patch didn't hesitate and winked at Wuming, Do you see, this is called a counter-offer. Customers always like to reconcile and compromise. If you want three, I'm afraid you won't have to do anything in the end. I got two. But if you said thirty, you can get these three.

Wuming suddenly realized: You still know how to do business.

The two high-fived each other tacitly, laughing and joking.

Fan Lei's face twitched under the mask, and he didn't know whether his choice to cooperate with Wuming was the right decision.

Okay, I can provide part of the tokens and medals first, and the money can be paid later. Fan Lei said.

Good man. Wuming said, Now we need to consider another important issue.

Any more questions? Fan Lei asked.

We have to decide on our own coat of arms. We need to engrave the coat of arms on the token to increase brand awareness. Wuming said seriously, his words were sonorous, powerful and resounding.

Indeed, we need to get our name out there. Patch was convinced.

Designing coats of arms is not an easy job. Fan Lei sighed, Those coats of arms look simple, but they all show their own characteristics in simple stripes. This requires an excellent designer, who is simple but not simple.

Fan Lei concluded: In short, the simpler the lines, the better, but they cannot lose their recognition. This is not simple, so you might as well put your time on more important things.

It's simple but also recognizable... Wuming said, It's indeed a bit difficult...

Don't worry about that. Patch said, The coat of arms is very simple.

Wuming looked at Patch for a moment in confusion, and suddenly understood: Yes, it's really simple.

What are you talking about? Fan Lei didn't understand.

Wuming dipped his hands into the pool of blood that had not completely dried up, and drew a circle on the ground. His fingers drew a long blood mark under the circle.

It's a bit like a soft-boiled egg with a crack and yolk flowing out.

That's it. Wuming said, Just keep it simple.

Fan Lei frowned: But what does it represent? A symbol without connotation is just a meaningless picture.

Fan Lei looked at Patch's bald head and hesitated:

You don't think of bald heads as icons anymore, do you?

Don't be so utilitarian. Wuming hugged Fan Lei's neck, We can rely on our own actions to give it meaning.

Fan Lei got rid of the shackles of namelessness and no longer struggled:

Forget it, this is your internal matter, I have no right to interfere.

Afterwards, Wuming and Patch discussed the material, price and name of the token.

Patch originally proposed to use luminous pyroxene fragments to make it, but considering that blood is needed to cultivate blood roses, and the blood and bones obtained from hunting beasts can be used, he finally decided to use bones to make the token.

Pachi and Wuming had a tacit understanding on the matter of transmitting the token, and they quickly decided on the token's manufacturing material and name, and also set a price.

Its name is Return Bone Fragment, and it sells for five hundred runes.
